AREA ATTRACTIONS: 

Seaside is a fantastic destination, most widely known for being featured in the Truman Show with Jim Carrey. Its incredible architecture has helped to make it famous but also its faithful replication of the kind of seaside town that used to be common up and down the coast. Seaside has its own Farmer's Market, post office, Repertory Theater, and neighborhood school. It boasts unique shopping, fantastic cuisine, and the incredible architecture that makes Seaside famous, There are activities for everyone; kayak rentals, bike rentals, paragliding, fishing, golfing, hiking, swimming, and tennis -- you'll find it all right here.

Bike over to Blue Mountain Beach Creamery for some homemade scoops that will have your taste buds coming back! You'll have an array of dining options to choose from!  

The snorkelers in your group will love the new artificial reef called Sea Turtle Reef, deployed in 2017. Located just 783 feet out from the Grayton Beach State Park access, it is becoming a haven for sea life. Each of the 4 snorkeling reefs comprises 40 acres of permitted sea bottom. The Sea Turtle Reef is at a depth of 12-19 feet. We strongly recommend that snorkelers use a kayak, paddleboard, or other flotation device when visiting the snorkel reefs. Sea conditions can and do change quickly and often. Enjoy!

The cleaning Co. did not finish their job with the oven. They sprayed a white cleanser on the racks and oven leaving white cleanser all over it.We washed and cleaned before we could cook our fish.Also wanted to mention there were only 9 arm bands for using the pool. A beautiful house and area that we really enjoyed. I will attach a picture of the oven.

My family had a wonderful time! RealJoy was very helpful when we contacted them for help or for small issues we had! The area was beautiful and had local stuff, but didn’t have much. If you want to go to an area with more to do other than the beach it’s about a 15 minute drive but I loved it!

Family Vacation
The property was very nice and more private than I expected. The weather was a little chilly so we did not get to use the pool and the hot tub was not hot the first time we tried it. It was warmer when we checked again. The house was comfortable for everyone with a lot of room. The downstairs furniture could be a little more comfortable and awkward to have the covers on them. My only other complaint was the rugs. They were all very dirty and need replaced.

We loved our stay! The space was perfect for our large family. We loved sitting out on the front porches and the screened in patios while drinking coffee and reading.
A bathroom door hinge needed to be adjusted in order for it to close and there wasn't sufficient pool wrist bands for all of our family. Also, the tv remote in the bunk room wasn't working --- the kids weren't happy about that. Real Joy responded promptly to the door hinge and pool bands. The tv remote had to be ordered therefore that tv was unavailable for use during our stay. The area rug in the king room was full of stains, that was a bit off-putting.
Be aware if you have anything bigger than a compact vehicle. We had a Toyota Tacoma and a Lexus SUV and both vehicles had to be parked a little on the grass and staggered in order for them to fit in the driveway.
Overall, we loved our stay! The pros far outweighed the cons. We look forward to another visit!

This home was exactly as posted. Very spacious, clean and in a great safe neighborhood. If you are vacationing with younger children do bring a wagon or plan on renting a golf cart as the walk to the beach is a bit long for young kids and parking is very limited. The older kids loved riding the bikes and the adults enjoyed the walking paths. Overall it was a wonderful vacation and the home is beautiful in a prime location. We will definitely be back and choose this home for our stay.
