Here you will find wind surfing, snorkeling, water-skiing and parasailing offered all along the Gulf. Nearby attractions include a Big Kahuna's Waterpark, The Track Family Fun Center and an array of watersports available at Destin Harbor. Of course, you'll want to savor the unique and delicious flavors of the freshest seafood available at any of Destin's more than 100 eateries! Restaurants here range from casual oyster bars to elegant bistros serving culinary delights guaranteed to please your palate.
Come enjoy the freshest seafood, go fishing for all types of salt and freshwater fish, explore fun shops and boutiques or simply relax on breathtaking beaches.
Just 1.5 miles away is Destin Commons, a beautifully landscaped, pedestrian-friendly area and a great family venue where children will love to play in the interactive water fountains. Also, for the younger guests, a nautically/pirate themed outdoor playground features a 1,750 square foot soft play area with various creatures from the sea, slides, and a treasure chest! Destin Commons also has a mini train for the kids. Destin Commons features over 75 shops and restaurants, including Godiva Chocolates, AMC Movie.
If you are near Miramar Beach, the snorkelers in your group will love the new artificial reef called Dolphin Reef, deployed in 2017. Located just 685 feet straight out from the Miramar Regional Public Beach access (by Pompano Joe's), it is becoming a haven for sea life. Each of the 4 snorkeling reefs comprises 40 acres of permitted sea bottom. The Dolphin Reef is at a depth of 12-20 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!

RealJoy’s instructions to check-in were quite clear and they reached out to let us know how to contact them if we needed anything. They were quite clear that no kitchen consumables (coffee filters, seasonings or condiments) nor beach gear were included. We did leave some boogie boards, so the next renters could enjoy them.
The only negative I have is that the Lake side patio could use a spray down, especially of the ceiling, and some of the chairs on the upstairs patio could use to be replaced. Other than that the week just went by way to quickly."

There were a couple of roaches but nothing of major concern.
Our only issues were the gnats outside. It is nothing the owners could have done to fix this. This is the joys of being close to the lake. But it is definitely worth mentioning for those who never lived by a lake.
We would definitely stay here again."
