House was nice and it was clean. You can not see the lake from sitting on the porch. You must walk down the road about 10 yards and through other houses property, so that’s a little miss leading. Our friends stayed in this neighborhood too, and their host left them spices, beach chairs and an umbrella to use. They also had access to the garage. This property does not offer this. The upstairs stays hot so we were unable to sleep up there. Good thing we only had 4 staying, it would not have worked otherwise. The golf cart was extremely slow and would only get up to 18 mph. The faucet in the master bathroom definitely needs to be replaced. It would also been nice if there would have been a Keurig. Instead it’s an old school coffee maker.

Awesome!
Great location!! Ease of checking in was a plus and having the golf cart made life easy!! The only thing we would recommend is put in the notes about the kitchen that there are no spices. Maybe we have been spoiled, but our last 5-6 VRBOs at least had salt and pepper. Also, there needs to be oven mitts and grilling utensils if you advertise having a grill at the house! Overall, we were able to get a quick grocery order picked up and we enjoyed our entire stay!!! We would definitely stay there again!

House and resort was beautiful. House keeping needs to clean better we found hair balls out of a brush in upstairs beds trash behind beds, they showed up a day early to clean then was sitting outside at 8am on departure day waiting on us to leave. Kids plus my wife was bitten by some kind of bugs inside the home so we ended up washing all bed linens after the first night. Upstairs stays around 85day and night there is some fans up there but no ac.

Disappointing
We paid 75 for early arrival and when we got there, our code was not set up yet. Additionally, there was white dog hair everywhere in the living space once we did get inside. The carpets didn’t even seem that they had been vacuumed.

One week stay in Laurel Grove.
Wonderful neighborhood in the Sandestin Resort. The home was perfect for our group of 4 adults and 3 children. Everything in the resort was accessible by golf cart including beach, Warf, golf courses, and nearby grocery. Would highly recommend this property and this neighborhood. Only thing was a significant discrepancy in temperature between the up stairs and down stairs.

We always enjoy our stay at SanDestin. The condo was nice and very clean. A little disappointed with the lack of a pantry or any place to put groceries for 8 people for a week No place outside to store anything either. Very little room to park. Room for one car beside the golf cart. We had to break the rule and park on the street. Eight people didn’t come in one car! Sorry to come across all negative, we did have fun but I like other homes we’ve rented in Laurel Grove better.

Great Get-Away Spot
This was our first family vacation to FL and we loved it. This was in large part because of the comfort and ease of the property we stayed at. It was wonderful for our family and had many activities including the beach that were close and fun to do. I would recommend this to anyone as a fun place to stay.

Our stay was very relaxing, my family and I always stay in Sandestin but this was our time in a Laurel Grove property. Our place was conveniently located to the community pool and Baytown Wharf was a short ride on the golf cart. We are a family of five so this property offered plenty of space for the whole family. We would definitely stay in this community again.

Beautiful home, amazing community, charged $400 more than quoted for the stay
The scenery here was amazing! The home was beautiful yet the upstairs stayed on the warm side. The pots and pans are for a couple rather than a family but there is a local store where we were able to purchase a couple pans. I inquired on the grill and the maintenance guy told me that most women that come prefer to go out to eat rather than cook food and have to clean up the mess. LOL! Overall we loved the home, the pool and the community. We added the expense of the golf cart which was handy for the adult kids of ours. Plus traffic was crazy busy. Wished we would have understood the free items that came with the package. Definitely will not go through the Home Away app next time. We will go straight to the Have Travel memories app. They added their fee to the amount that they sent Have Travel memories to charge us plus charged the same fee separately on my credit card. We ended up paying $396.35 more than the amount we were quoted and neither Home Away nor Have Travel Memories would correct the issue. We were quoted...
6 Night $1,776.00
Service Fee $135.00
Taxes $264.70
Trip Total $ 2,175.70
Golf Cart $422.65
Final Total $2,598.35
Although my credit card was charged...
5/1 HomeAway $135.00
5/2 Have Travel Memories $1,184.37
6/16 Have Travel Memories $1,675.33
For a grand total of $2,994.70
Overall we loved the home, the community, the beaches and the pool but we could have gotten 2 rooms in a beach front hotel with breakfast included and saved over $1,000. Lesson learned.

Terrific house
I rented the house because our daughter got married at the gulf club and it was ideal. We had six adults, two couples and my sister and niece. The upstairs bedroom has two beds and is really big, but it has no door on it. That didn't bother us. The house is really nice. We spent a lot of time sitting on the front porch. I would definitely rent again.
