We had an amazing time at Fins to the Left. We brought my mom to Milton to visit my 90 year old uncle who lives in the area. We had 4 generations of family over to visit us and enjoy the river. Perfect setting and the house was easily accessible for my mom and uncle who both have mobility issues. The house had everything we needed so we could cook meals at the house. Heat touch that they have fishing poles and gear so that my little cousin could fish, yup he actually caught his FIRST fish ever from the dock. We will differently be back.

We had a wonderful view on a quiet road. Waking up to geese and a hot cup of coffee was so relaxing. Milton was a small town so close to Navarre beach with it's white sands and blue water.

Great property

This place was fantastic! So clean and comfy. The back yard was private with a view of the river. The location is not within walking distance of anything, but we could easily drive to the store and restaurants. The kitchen is well stocked and we used it to cook several meals. Thanks for a great stay!!

Great clean and comfortable place.

Host was very gracious to our family in accommodating my entire family during our move across the country. Property and dock was amazing for my boys and I to fish and watch turtles from. Home was very neat and clean with comfortable beds (comfy beds was a huge plus!!!) Overall great experience and would recommend to others!

My spouse and I are actually locals. We were looking to get away for a couple days. This place was very clean and in a great location for us. The check-in/out process was simple. We greatly appreciated the snacks that were waiting us when we arrived! There was only one negative, and that was there was not enough pots for cooking. However, we would definitely stay again.

Great place to stay where kids could get out and play in the huge yard. Kayaks and life vests for paddling, fishing pole provided, fire pit and wood for campfire (may need to bring kindling). Kitchen loaded with utensils. Great stay, even with a bit of helicopter noise from nearby little airport.

The place to be!

Kim was amazing with communicating. The property is just how it’s listed! Lake was beautiful, the kayaks and fishing poles were the perfect touch! Didn’t get the chance to use the grill or fire pit but both were nice! There is an small plane airport very close but only time I noticed it was outside and it was actually nice watching the fly around. It’s great that she keeps her cleaning supplies accessible for sweeping beach sand out while there. The hammock is my fave! I almost fell asleep … twice. Had a chance to briefly meet the owners. Very nice and welcoming! Short drive to Milton / a cute little town with a small river walk and just a bit further to UWF. We will be back! Thanks again!
