The 2nd bedroom also features a queen bed with full bath across the hall. There is a queen sofa sleeper in the great room.

The home is well stocked with kitchen items/linens. However, be sure to hit the grocery store before you come as there is no substantial market in Horseshoe Beach, only the necessities at the Marina. The Marina rents Kayaks & Golf Carts for your convenience, and also features a boat lift and gas pumps!
Hope you enjoy your stay!

This house is directly on the water with beautiful views. Sunrises from the deck and sunsets just down the street - amazing! The house was furnished with everything we needed - so many thoughtful personal touches. Would definitely love to visit again!
We sure enjoyed staying at your vacation home in Horseshoe. It was quiet, clean, and so lovely. We loved that the boat ramp was only a few houses down, and we could tie our boat up on the dock everyday after fishing. We will definitely be back!
We loved our time here! It’s right on the water with views from every room. The house was decorated beautifully and the owners were very thoughtful; they provided everything needed by way of kitchen and bathroom basics. We also appreciated how incredibly clean the place was. Note that the location is somewhat remote (in a good way) so we made sure to stock up. We loved our time here and we’d love to visit again!
This was our second year staying in this beautiful home. We are so glad the hurricane spared this little slice of heaven! Everything from the location to the comfort level is perfect. We highly recommend staying here! Hoping that the marina will be open next year, but we just brought gas cans for our boat to cut down on trips to Cross City for gas. It was an easy fix.
This is our family’s 2nd time staying here and it was wonderful. We love the decor inside and out. The beds are super comfortable and it is incredibly clean. The water view cannot be beat. We love sitting and relaxing on their porches above and below. Our boat stayed safe in the water on the dock. The outdoor shower and fish cleaning station came in handy. Horseshoe Beach is a very special place. We met so many wonderful friends while staying and can’t wait to visit again next summer.
Very nice place to stay, very clean, up to date, right on the water and we caught , red fish, trout right off the parking deck and private pier in the back of the house. Horseshoe beach would remind you of Mayberry its very laid back, folks are nice and helpful. If you are wanting shopping, golf , bars, restarants this isnt the place but if you are wanting peace and quiet, relaxing and fishing this is your place.
We've stayed in many VRBO properties in this country and others. This one, I believe, is the best. Quiet, impeccably clean, views of an aquatic area.....something that we see very little of at home....are amazing. Sitting on the back deck and watching the antics of the pelicans and dolphins was a real treat. We aren't boaters, but if you are, this is the place to be. Especially if you fish. The village of Horseshoe Beach is incredibly friendly and the property owners are very responsive and helpful. The home is extremely well equipped.....we wanted for nothing. The worst part of our visit was having to leave.
This home is absolutely perfect! Lots of french doors and windows to let in natural sunlight makes it super cheerful! I love the open floor plan and hardwood flooring is super nice so much better than ceramic tile floors! We had an amazing trip and staying at this home made it even better! If we ever go back for another visit we will book again!
We had a wonderful time with an amazing view of the gulf. We caught the largest shrimp we have ever seen and found plenty of scallops. The house is beautifully furnished and so comfortable. Would definitely recommend this house.
We loved our stay in your beautiful home… we have a large family and with that, your dock was the perfect place together in the evenings after a long day scalloping. The rest of our family stayed directly across the street, which was super convenient also. I can’t pick which was better from the balcony, watching the storms come in or the sunset/rise. Lol All and all thank you for making another yearly tradition perfect. #scalloping2023
Looking forward to finding an open week for longer stay
