Amazing location and host was super responsive! I hate to give it a great review because it will just make it more difficult to reserve in the future!
This is a truly special camping experience! We had complete privacy, a beautiful view, birds to watch, and plenty to explore within a short drive. With full hookups, we had a very comfortable week's stay. We so appreciated access to Nathan and Crystal's kayaks so we didn't have to bring ours.
A couple of tips to help you prepare. First: bring bug spray! Being on the water, there are bugs and they do bite. Second: think about a way to hang towels and anything that might get wet so they'll dry. It's Florida and it's humid. Our towels got a little stinky -- they just didn't get dry on the hooks we usually use. We had extras and you might want to pack them, too.
Paul, your drone photos are amazing! We've never seen the place from those angles, so those are a real treat for us. Thank you! We're glad you enjoyed your stay and had some peace and quiet. Yes, the bugs love it too! We have come to terms with having to make peace with them the best we can. FL humidity does keep things wet, good point on the towels! Safe and happy future travels to you and yours! -The Boyles Family
We so enjoyed our return trip to this beautiful, peaceful spot. It is our favorite of all time!! Well kept, great amenities, very private and quiet, and close to the beach, great restaurants and conveniences.
Thank you, Shelia! It's always a pleasure to have you back at the bay. Thank you for taking care of it when we can't be there ourselves! -The Boyles Family
Amazing views, your own personal dock, and relaxing back yard! Great location if you want to go to Destin or head into Seaside, FL. Don’t miss the sun coming up in the morning! The colors on the water and birds flying took my breath away!
Josie, thank you so much for your review! We can't claim to catch the sunrise as often as the sunset ourselves, but glad you enjoyed it and witness the beautiful nature at the bay. We're glad it was a peaceful retreat for you. Please come again! -The Boyles Family
Staying at this hidden gem of a retreat was one of our favorite camping experiences. It was so peaceful to watch the pelicans loaf, the dolphins play and enjoy the bay life. Everything worked perfectly and the hosts made sure you had all the information you needed to have a wonderful stay. The hardest decision for us to make was whether to stay and relax or venture out to the beach that day. While you are tucked away in this quiet hideaway, you are also only minutes from grocery stores and fabulous restaurants. We are so glad we found this oasis and hope to be able to visit again soon!
Kimberly, we also struggle with that decision when we stay here! We are glad you found some downtime here at the bay, and we do hope to get to host you again. Thank you for the kind words. -The Boyles Family
So peaceful - perfect place for us.
Thank you Sally! We are glad you enjoy it just as much as we do. -The Boyles Family
Oh my goodness this place is the best place we have ever used with Hipcamp will definitely be back. The area has lots to do.
Jeremy, so happy to hear that. Thank you for sharing! -The Boyles Family
This stay was the highlight of our trip! We were lucky enough to have perfect weather so we had the opportunity to get out & explore the bay with the kiddos thanks to the provided kayaks! The abundant wildlife kept our girls entertained for hours. Big THANK YOU to Crystal & Nathan for being such accommodating hosts!
Michael, this is wonderful! Our kids also spend hours upon hours in nature when we are at the bay hideaway. It's a child's paradise for sure and we're glad you and your family made memories at the bay. May all your future family adventures be safe and adventurous! -Crystal
Oh my gosh, you could never be so lucky as to find this little place of Nirvana!! Seriously, no joke, this is such an incredibly special place. There are a pair of Osprey that live right next door. Lots of wonderful Brown Pelicans, Cormorants, etc.
if you are lucky enough to score this place consider yourself soooo lucky!!!
Lauren, what great photos! The one of the pelican is spectacular. They are so fun to watch. We also enjoy the kingfishers, they are pretty active! We are glad you enjoyed your time in the salty air. Thank you for your kind words, as we get joy from sharing our little place with others. Safe travels on all your future adventures! -Crystal

Debbie, thanks for the review! Looks like your pups also enjoyed themselves. Our doodle spends most days at the bay damp and sandy as well. A good pup life for sure! Come back and see us! -The Boyles Family
