About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

The Lucky Dog Beach House steps from the beach.

You've found our relaxing hideaway in Indian Pass, Florida. Our home is just steps (and we mean 50 steps) to the wide relaxing Gulf beach. We’ve provided everything to make it your home away from home.

We are located less than one mile from the Indian Pass boat ramp and St. Vincent's Island. Enjoy lush landscapes, lots of wildlife, and great fishing. We love our beach walks with sandpipers and even see dolphins from the beach.
The space
The house accommodates 8 people with 3 bedrooms and each bedroom has their own newly renovated bathroom. The kids will love the bunk room with 2 sets of bunk beds (twin and XL twin). The open floor plan of the main floor is inviting and friendly. We have fully equipped the kitchen with appliances, dishware, and cookware. The house has central heat & air, ceiling fans, in-home washer & dryer, wireless internet, televisions on the main floor, DVD players, and streaming entertainment. The ground level has covered paved parking with an outdoor shower to rinse off after your beach day, a fish cleaning station for your daily catch and a hot tub to enjoy.

We’ve created a relaxing lounge area on our screened porch with a beautiful gulf view, so you can listen to the waves and enjoy the sea breeze. Star and moon gazers will be awed by the view from the upstairs balcony at night where you can see shooting stars.
Guest access
Guests will have access to the whole private single family home.
Other things to note
PETS: The beach and the property are dog friendly. There is a 2 dog maximum. Dogs must be well behaved and house trained. Be up-to-date on their shots and current on flea/tick medications. Please keep pets off the furniture and beds. You agree to keep them on a leash when on public property and pick-up any waste. If you plan on leaving your pet for an extended period of time, please have them hang out on the porch or bring a crate if they plan on staying inside alone. Any damages will incur a charge to your deposit.

If you plan on bring your dog(s), please let us know in your message when you make your inquiry.

Sorry no cats allowed due to the owner's allergies.

OFF SEASON RENTAL: Snowbirds welcome! Please message for our snowbird pricing between December and March.

CAMERA: There is an exterior camera pointed at the driveway for security. We would be happy to send a screen shot when requested. It is located on the ceiling of the carport, pointed towards the street.
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 3 bathrooms, and a balcony, and there's space to spread out with 3 bedrooms. The bathroom offers hair dryers and bidets. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a coffee maker, and an ironing board.
