We had a great stay at Shore thing! We had a family vacation of 12 people and a baby and we all fit very comfortably. The place was very clean and has a really nice aesthetic! Super easy to get to the pool and beach!
Would love to stay here again!

We thoroughly enjoyed the area of cottages by the sea. Our particular cottage sure thing was very nice and looked as expected. The kitchen was well stocked. All the rooms were comfortable, and we would stay again.

We loved this house and subdiv so much. Loved having the golf cart and bikes. Beds are very comfortable. Lots of extras in the house that most places don’t have. Right across from the pool. Great location! Would love to stay here again.

Lovely place to stay. Convenient place, close to ocean (by golf cart) and pool (short walk from house). Only complaint - internet was out when we got there and could not be fixed until after we left. This caused inconvenience and angst!!!!

We had so much fun staying at Shore Thing for a couples trip! The place is larger than it looks in photos and the beds are extremely comfortable. Panhandle provided great communication, wonderful amenities and a beautiful house for the price. We enjoyed the neighborhood, it has a great pool and perfect beach access. Be sure to take advantage of the golf cart and bikes, though, as it’s a trek to 30A. Can’t say enough about how perfect the house was for a couples trip or even a trip with kids. We would definitely come back!

Thank you for your fantastic review, Suzy! We're thrilled to hear that you had a wonderful time at Shore Thing. It's great to know that the house exceeded your expectations in terms of size and comfort. We're glad you enjoyed the amenities and found the neighborhood to be enjoyable. We appreciate your feedback about the distance to 30A and will take that into consideration. We can't wait to welcome you back for another amazing stay, whether it's a couples trip or a family vacation!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! Since we visited during the abnormally frigid weather front, we couldn’t spend too much time on the beach or in the pool but we enjoyed the well-stocked games at the house. The home is beautiful and provided enough space for the eight of us to spread out. The cold weather caused the outdoor shower to malfunction and even though it was Christmas Eve, the property managers were quick to respond and take care of the issue with little interruption to us. Much appreciated!

Annette R., Chelsea, Alabama - Posted: 1/7/2023

Thanks so much for the awesome review, Annette! We are so glad you enjoyed your Christmas vacation with us, and we look forward to your next visit!

Shore Thing was the perfect place for our family to spend the Thanksgiving holiday. The kitchen had all that we needed and there was plenty of room for everyone to sit and enjoy the meal. The location was perfect as it sits nestled off of 30A but just a short walk or golf cart ride to everything we needed in Seacrest or Rosemary. We could easily get to all the action but could retreat away from it as well. It was private and peaceful. The bedrooms and bathrooms were very clean and the decor very nice. The communication was great and always prompt. The bikes were great to have, too. I would recommend this to a family who needs the three bedrooms, baths and bunk room!

Shore Thing WAS a sure thing☺️ We have stayed in several properties in and around this location and this one was THE MOST family friendly. Some things that were amazing that we weren’t expecting…empty baskets available for organizing sunscreen, toys etc.; baby chair for feeding our grand baby; lots of WOOD hangers; cabinets, light switches labeled; quality furnishings and appliances without issues. Some of this may sound insignificant but these details can make such a difference! Now this may sound crazy to some but I happen to be a lover of good design…this was the first house I didn’t have to go around putting up ugly decor accessories that just take up needed space upon arriving! Then of course I always have to put them back before leaving! First time our adult sons with children from 9 months to 14 said…so Mom have you secured Shore Thing for next year?! Just want to say to whomever made this house possible it was much appreciated and brought great joy to our family❤️

Sue G. - Posted: 8/16/2021

Wow, thank you so much for this AMAZING review! We have shared this with the owner of Shore Thing and know it is going to make her smile from ear to ear. The design and planning of this home started with a vision of the memories our guests are making with their families. We're glad this was more than a vacation for you and we can't wait to host your family again!

A great layout and a good location! Beach access easy and pool is across the street! The golf cart definitely makes the visit more fun as well!

Diana - Posted: 7/18/2021

House was beautiful, clean and well equipped. The setting is beautiful and having the pool right next door was great for the kids to go swimming. We loved having the firepit on the property and used it every night. Only issues we experienced was the Wifi was nonexistent but not a big deal for us and it took a couple of calls to the management company to get someone there to service the golf cart which wasn't working. Overall, we had a wonderful time!

Brenda M. - Posted: 3/21/2021

YAY! Thank you for the 5 Star review! We look forward to your return.

Shore Things was the PERFECT vacation home for our multi-generation family. With 3 large king bedrooms and a 6 bed bunk room, everyone had their own personal space and bathrooms. But the common family room/dining/kitchen was an amazing space to gather for meals, movies and games!We used the golf cart to transport the tent, chairs and coolers to the beach and then rode bikes back and forth throughout the day.The amenities for the house provided everything for a comfortable, stress-free vacation.As we are settling in back home, we are already coordinating dates for next year's stay!

All was good. The house was somewhat clean. There were places that needed dusting so I then question all cleaning. The pool was not cleaned or maintained while we were there for 7 days. We loved the location and the house. We would love to come back again.

Thank you for the terrific 5 star review! We are so glad you enjoyed your stay with us and had a great time at the beach! Till next time, Cheers!

Beautiful and well equipped home. Beautifully furnished, a shed full of water toys, and really great location. Golf cart was perfect! Only issue we had is the garbage disposal leaked water under the sink and then the dishwasher stopped working so doing dishes was painful. Maintenance didn’t fix during our stay.

Amy M., Dallas, Texas - Posted: 4/7/2020

Thank you Amy for your review. Our maintenance team did discover the issue with the plumbing and works perfectly now. Thank you for letting us know of the issue while you were here.

Pool is across the street! So convenient!!! Beach is a 6 min walk or 1 minute golf cart ride! This was so perfect for our family! Neighborhood is very nice too!

This is a new, spacious, and bright home. The bedrooms were very large and each had a private bath. The kitchen was especially nice with top-of-the-line appliances and well appointed. The pool was just across the driveway. The neighborhood was safe and quiet. We had five adults and five children and all had a wonderful time.

Thank you for the great review Ron. We are so happy you enjoyed this home as much as we do! Come back and stay any time!
