Lemonade

We came down with friends and family. Ten of us in total, we arrived on our bus. Late the evening of our first night, we were rudely informed by one of the neighbors that strict HOA rules prohibited buses,RVs, or boat trailers from being parked in the neighborhood. We had booked this property specifically because there was parking for our bus in the driveway at the house. Had we known the HOA rule ahead of time, we would have booked elsewhere. As it was, a very sweet neighbor swooped in and came to our rescue, giving us the name of a local RV Resort (Luxury RV Resort…who were super friendly, helpful, and accommodating) and offering to allow us use of their car. We were able to run the bus to the resort and get groceries later in the week by borrowing this sweet neighbors vehicle. We regrouped and changed our plans to spending the days on the beach and going on just a few side adventures to areas that were within walking distance. We definitely made lemonade with some sour lemons. I reached out to the property manager early on and let her know what was going on. She offered to help drive us (although with 10 of us that would have been difficult) she loaned us a bike which my husband road to the RV resort to pick up our bus on the last day of our trip. At the end of the week, I heard from the owner, who apologized for the inconvenience of our week and covered the cost of storing our bus, with a little xtra.Bus issue aside, the home is beautiful, fun was had by all.

Great week at House of Blues

We had a wonderful week with our adult children and grandkids. We really enjoyed our stay in this lovely, spacious house that had everything we needed. The neighborhood is lovely. Driving distance to our favorite place, Grayton Beach, was short. Beds are very comfortable. Port-a-crib and bunk beds were perfect for the kids. Enjoyed the front porch. We had a few missteps on the stairs. Not the owner’s fault, but just a word of caution to be careful.

Lovely house but long walk for grandparents

Pros: The house is wonderful with plenty of space. We loved the front porch with the rocking chairs and large picnic table. The second floor porch was also lovely to sit outside at night. The kitchen had sufficent supplies for all the basic meals we made. Beds were comfortable. And we really enjoyed there was plenty of space for everyone to sit in the living room and at the dining room table. Water pressure great even when everyone took showers at the same time and it was nice to have access to the tennis courts. Cons: If you have really little ones or older grandparents, the beach might be too long of a walk. The boardwalk is pretty and flat but I didn't realize how far we would have to walk on the beach to be able to setup our tent. You are not allowed on the beach right down from the boardwalk because that is owned by the condos directly next to the boardwalk. Nor is anyone allowed from the complex to the immediate left as that is the Bannerman subdivision beach. So you either have to go to the far left or to the right. We usually chose the far left because the outfall from the dune lake was not as much on the left as on the right. And when you are lugging a wagon loaded down with stuff, you just don't want to forge a big outfall. Grandparents 70-82 years old struggled walking everyday in the sand that far. An adult with only a chair took 10 minutes to walk from frontsteps to where we setup on the beach. The grandparents took 18 minutes (with no chair to carry).

Perfect vacation

The house was amazing. It was very clean when we arrived and the housekeeper, Marcia, met the 1st group of us when we arrived. The owner was very prompt to respond to my questions before and after booking. The kids loved the bunk room and we loved the space. The front porch was a good place for morning coffee. The boardwalk to the beach was nice and maintained and a small walk to beach, which was so nice and private. The highlight was seeing a momma bear and cub in the front yard and tree. Kids and adults alike was in awe lol. This is definitely a place I would recommend and would love to visit again.

Would have been perfect if the refrigerator had not broken upon our arrival. The owner was clearly not informed. Michael and Marsha did their best to help with ice and coolers to hold the "must have items". The house was beautiful and the kitchen was well stocked. We didn't let the refrigerator get us down. They had it fixed as soon as possible. We plan on returning in the fall.

Perfect Spring Break

We had the best time on our trip! The location was perfect! The walk to the beach is only 5-7 minutes and one of the neighborhood pools is super close! We went to Blue Mountain Creamery several nights and even walked one night. We enjoyed taking the public shuttle into seaside so that we didn’t have to deal with trying to park there. We’ve stayed in Seagrove and Seaside several times, but we really loved Grayton for how much calmer and less people! The property managers were great as well! We will be back!

Spring Break Getaway

House of Blues is an exceptional home away from home to unplug and recharge. We loved it. We were two families with four kids total. There was plenty of room for everyone to stretch out and relax. The house was clean with lovely sea inspired decor. The kids enjoyed riding bikes around the neighborhood and swimming in the neighborhood heated pool. The gated walkway to the beach was well maintained and easy to assess! It was a short walk to white sand beaches. I know the HOA of the neighborhood is working to try to remedy some issues with a resort who is claiming beach front, but even the short walk to where it was ok for us to be wasn’t bad. The beaches are so pretty. I do hope they can resolve the issues for current home owners and future guests! But that is no fault of the House of Blues and I know the neighborhood is working on it. The only issues we had was no internet and poor cell phone service, which the home owner really tried to get it fixed for us but the internet company didn’t come until we were already gone. It made it impossible for my husband to work so he had to spend a little time at a near by coffee shop to get internet. Hopefully it was just a fluke thing while we were there. The positive is that it caused us to unplug even more than we had planned and relax. The neighborhood is an enjoyable bike ride to places like Watercolor and Seaside. We enjoyed riding to them a couple days and enjoying the sites. There are wide trails for people to walk or bike along 30A. We would totally go back and would recommend it to anyone who is considering staying there!

Relaxation at its best!

Super lovely house in a tidy quiet neighborhood. Great layout in the house. The one time I don’t bring shampoo, the place didn’t stock it with soaps, but most everything else was provided as a starter. The beach access was fabulous! I’ve felt like there was a lot of check out cleaning request that should have been covered by the cleaning fee we had to pay. Other than that I would highly recommend and stay again!

Some shortcomings, but mostly good stay

We stayed at the House of Blues for 4 days. It’s a sweet and tidy place with character. Close to the beach and in a quiet neighborhood. We’ve stayed at The Preserve twice before and so have a couple of other places to compare to HOB. Our main complaint was with a/c. Drainage became clogged (was cleared the first night by maintenance) and unit partially froze on the outside. Our first night was spent without cool air downstairs. Kind of a bummer. Overall, the stay was enjoyable. The home itself could use some maintenance with aforementioned a/c, door handles (hubby had to tighten one upstairs), etc…just general wear and tear.

Just what a large size family is looking for! The accommodations are very adequate and the location to the pool and the beach are the best in the neighborhood! The peaceful environment is hard to find these days and we highly recommend this location. This is the third year we stayed and the owner Michael is easy to reach and very friendly to work with the few times we contacted him over these three years.
