Wonderful Grayton home

My family had a wonderful stay at Always On My Mind. The property was exactly as advertised. The home is equipped with everything for an easy, worry-free beach vacation. The golf cart and bikes are a nice perk that come with the house. We visit Grayton almost every summer and this house was one of our favorites.

Before we ever got to our VRBO, the communication between the host and team was amazing! They answered questions and made our time there more comfortable. They continued to communicate throughout the entire trip. Very spacious inside and clean. It was a little further walk than we anticipated but, having the 6 person golf cart was the ticket to all of our short outings.

Best trip to 30A

We just back from our most recent trip to 30A and really enjoyed our stay at Always On My Mind. The location was perfect with beach access only a short walking distance away. It is about halfway between the 30A intersection and the Grayton bars/restaurants making it very quiet and laid back. The house was super clean and well appointed. We enjoyed the large kitchen and covered porch in particular. The golf cart and bikes were also very handy and made for even easier access to the beach. We have stayed at several other houses in Grayton and all agreed that this was our favorite yet. We look forward to renting from Graytlife again - perhaps at a smaller house because to be honest this house was more than enough for our group (4 adults & 3 kids age 4, 1 and infant). This house would be great for a larger group especially with older kids/teens. Host Kelly was super communicative and responsive throughout the process. The bonus was the complimentary beach bonfire which was really special and made even better by host Jay.

Child friendly house, great location

This was our second time staying here (first time as new parents) the house was great for kids and child proofed- the pool was fenced in and not easily accessible for a toddler, which gave us piece of mind. The master bedroom is fantastic, plenty of room for a pack and play, and open floor plan great for toddlers. It’s an enjoyable short walk or bike ride to the beach. Jay was great and very responsive to the broken ice maker. The bonfire was the cherry on top !

Fabulous home with great amenities

Always on My Mind is a beautifully maintained home with tons of space for entertaining. Great for a large family, it contained plenty of great cookware and a nice gas grill (most of the Grayton homes I’ve rented in the past had poorly functioning grills, so this was a plus for us). The house came with a golf cart, 6 bikes, and a beach bonfire - what a huge bonus!! Kelly responded quickly with any questions and was a pleasure to rent from. We will definitely be back!

Grayton Beach family vacation

We enjoyed our stay at Grayton Beach. House is in a great location, walking distance to Grayton Beach. It is also very close to shopping and restaurants. House comes with a golf cart and bikes, which we used to get to neighboring communities. House has a great layout and plenty of space. Beds are comfortable and house was very clean. If you are considering a 30A vacation, this house is a great choice.

Beautiful industrial house easily sleeps 10

We stayed here for a late summer beach vacation. Everything was as described. The new golf cart was a beautiful touch and the bikes were in great condition. The pool is small but serviceable. Parents with small children should know that there are a number of industrial features in the house, such as rolling carts, spiral staircase, and a ladder like climbing feature that make this house inappropriate for young children. Overall, I would totally stay here again.

Family Reunion

This house was perfect for our family reunion! We have been coming to Grayton Beach for the past 12 years to gather with a large extended family. Having a large family with adult children ourselves makes it hard to find a house that meets our needs. There were plenty of bedrooms, lots of space to hang out and a fantastic kitchen/dining space.

Great spring break stay

We loved staying here for spring break 2022. House comfortably slept two families with older kids with plenty of room to spread out. Comfortable beds and plenty of kitchen prep space with equipment to cook. Beach access is a five minute walk, but the golf cart was a huge help to transport gear. Kids and adults loved using the bikes as well. Balcony was a great, private place to relax in the early mornings or evening after a day at the beach. Will rent again!
