Great stay!

The Seagrove Nightcap house is located in the “old Seagrove” section with many trees and large lots. The house is newly renovated, has two bedroom suites plus a loft with four bunks for children. The house feels much larger than what the pictures show. The beds were all very comfortable and come with extra comforters for cooler nights. House AC and Heat worked perfectly, as some nights we needed heat, but some days we needed some AC. The kitchen has all the things of home - plenty of plates, glasses, bowls, utensils, cookware, grilling utensils, etc... Outdoor there is a new BBQ grill and a fire pit if you like night time fires on the deck like we do. Located in a quiet section of town, but only a three minute bike ride to Seaside, you are perfectly located for shopping, a short two block walk to the beach, tons of eating places and much more – plus you get to listen to all the birds chirping in the mature woods of Seagrove. The garage is stocked with bikes of all sizes plus enough beach gear to keep two families going on the beach. Ellen is the most responsive homeowner we have dealt with, normally answering questions within minutes. I cant speak highly enough of her attention to detail and would definitely come back again. This is the type of homeowner you want to rent from! Great house, great location, great owner!

Ellen was a welcoming, flexible and helpful host. We arrived two hours early and she let us check in without any hassle. The place was great, spacious and clean. Very close (5min walk) to the beach on a quiet street and lots of bikes and beach chairs for us to use. Coffee, fresh bars of soap, comfy beds, and lots of clean towels were an extra nice touch. The ladder up to the loft was pretty steep but the bunk beds were larger than we expected- perfect for adults. We loved our stay and would recommend it to anyone interested in the water color area without the high cost and congestion.

Nice home - easy short walk to beach. Great quiet neighborhood!. We loved the spaciousness of the home. We used the bikes provided for many wonderful rides down 30A. Definitely one of the best values in the area.

Great location: quiet wooded street off the beaten path but easy walk to beach access. Just a few blocks to Seaside - by bike or walking. The home was very clean and comfortable, easily accommodating two families with teens. Ellen was extremely responsive! the house had bikes, beach chairs, boogie boards and more. I would definitely come back.

Great location and wonderful host!

BeAuTiFuL!! Our entire stay was perfect! We had one of our very favorite family vacations! The Townsends were gracious from the start and excellent hosts!! Their home is well appointed and very comfortable!! Thank you for sharing your beautiful home with us!!

What a great stay! The property was even better than described. The layout was perfect for traveling with teenagers! Ellen was very courteous and quick to respond. We will defiantly consider Seagrove Nightcap on our next visit!

John's place is wonderful. It was very clean, nicely appointed, and in a great location. Not to mention - being able to bring my pup was a huge plus. We rented bikes on 30A and rode them to the beach from the cottage everyday. It was a nice way to get in a little exercise in before a lazy day on the beach. All in all a great place. Would definitely stay there again!

John's place is conveniently located in an area that is quiet and peaceful yet close to most everything. The cottage is quaint and comfortable with all the comforts of home. The porch is perfectly located to the west for awesome sunsets. The beach access area is convenient with ample parking. The best way to travel is on a bicycle. The garage is a nice bonus for bicycle and beach gear storage.

Great location! Loved that we could walk to the beach but the house still secluded and peaceful. Everything at the house was a breeze. Loved it so much!

John was great at responding to emails in a timely manner! The house was everything we expected! We loved the deck on the second level! Really enjoyed grilling out and relaxing on the patio! The neighbourhood was safe and super friendly! We walked to the beach every morning. Our stay was fantastic and we would defn recommend it to family and friends! In fact, several people have already asked us where we stayed! Thank you John!

John was a great host. Available to answer questions when GPS got us a little rerouted. Place was lovely and modern and cozy and smack dab in the middle of all the 30A action in the best way possible. Close enough to the beach to walk or ride a bike. I would come back again.

John was extremely responsive (generally within minutes)! He was very accommodating with our needs. The place was clean and very quaint. The porches are beautiful and the rain shower in the bathroom is to die for! It was wonderful to have the 2 car garage so we had a place to keep our bikes and beach essentials. This property is about 1/2 mile from a large public parking lot at Seagrove Beach. There was a nice, wooded 1/2 mile nature walk behind the property that ends in the Nature Walk subdivision. It was nice to have this for walking our dogs. I will say the only negative is the outdoor stairway into the unit. This would be a detriment for small children and senior citizens. We were totally satisfied and would rent this property again!

Loved this house! Walking distance to beach and restaurants. Porch and shower are incredible and John is an awesome host!

AMAZING LOCATION the house is at the end of a quiet long cove in the middle of it all. We rented a golf cart for the week (only $25 a day they wanted $75 a day if you’re going during offseason they will negotiate on price). The closest beach access is a small parking lot directly across the street about 1 min golf cart ride. It was about a 3 min ride to the square in Seaside also where there’s tons of parking & also beach access. One thing we loved was the trail at the end of cove that connects to a really nice quiet neighborhood around Publix in Watercolor with big sidewalks great for running/walking dogs & miles of trails going throughout the park. Much better than taking her for runs/walks & dealing with all the craziness on 30A. The house perfect size for the two of us & dog it was really nice having the two car garage & large patio it made the guest house seem much larger. The rainwater shower head is amazing my wife already has a complete shower reno on my to-do list. Great value, location & it’s pet friendly which is hard to find we really enjoyed our stay & defiantly recommend!

Very responsive and informative. Beautiful house, exactly as described. Wonderful Family atmosphere!

Lovely Cottage by the sea!

10/10

Daphne was a fabulous hostsss and the house is perfect! It is convenient and close to everything and the house has everything you need!

This house and Delphine is so WONDERFUL. She helped us with all we needed and had everything you could ever need. She was always avaliable to help us with anything. She provided beach towels and other beach toys which was an unexpected treat. This would be the only place I would stay in Seaside. I would recommend this place to all. The Screened in porch is the best part of the house!

We had an amazing stay! Delphine even brought us a bottle of French wine...I highly recommend staying here! Thanks again

My family and I absolutely loved staying at Delphine's beach cottage. It was in walking distance to the beach, restaurants, and shopping. Delphine was very accommodating and the house was clean and very comfortable. We would definitely stay there again.

Loved the Watermelon Cottage. The neighborhood is quiet and serene. Very short, easy walk to the beach. Plus, you can easily walk to Seaside. Delphine was very attentive and quick to respond. The pictures of the house don't do it justice. It is adorable and very well appointed. Would absolutely love to stay again!

Delphine was very hands on and very responsive to any questions or concerns we had. Great location and perfect distance from the seaside circle and the beach! Would absolutely stay here again.

This cottage was perfect for our little family beach trip! So close to the beach and close to so many things to do! We loved it!

This property is in an excellent location - right off 30A and a five minute walk to the beach. There were beach chairs and a wagon to carry gear at the house, which was very helpful for some of our guests that did not bring these items. Negatives were we were given the wrong door code and were stuck outside for 30 minutes at 11 pm trying to call the help number and get into the house. Be sure to double check this before arrival! The house was also not stocked well and we ended up having to buy supplies that we did not expect to. Overall, great stay and location for the price.

We had a wonderful time! Would definitely go back again. We especially enjoyed the "beachcomber wagon" to take to the beach and haul our stuff. Short walk to the beach, clean, quiet and cozy. We loved it!!

Ben was quick to answer all questions and very helpful with suggestions for the area.

Rustic, unique and ultra-cool beach house with plenty of room and comfort! I felt like a local, with the ability to walk literally within minutes to beach, restaurants and Seaside area. By car, it's within minutes of grocery store and bottle shop. Myself, my daughter and her friends absolutely loved our stay! Benjamin was a very helpful and courteous host, responsive to all of our needs. He provided great advice on things to do and see in the area. I just wish I could have stayed longer!

Excellent location, great price, great place! Ben was very accessible and got back to me quickly every time I contacted him. House was older but plenty of space and amenities. Very cool beach cottage and beach access was just across the street. My family loved it, we would definitely stay here again!

Ben was very responsive to our questions, although things were so well laid out we had very few to ask! The house was clean and we had everything in the kitchen we needed. The beds were very comfortable, and there were plenty of towels. We were delighted to find a beach access just a few yards up the road toward town. I would recommend this house to anyone who is cool with older homes with a cottage-like feel to them. I really liked staying there!

Great location at a great price! The house is perfectly situated back from the main road and yet a very quick and easy walk to the beach. We walked up and down the beach and decided that the beach closest to the house was the best around - beautiful and not crowded at all. The house is also not a bad walk to Seaside for lots of restaurants and shops. Benjamin was very quick to communicate and responded right away every time I contacted him. We did have an issue with a bathroom leak that began just before we arrived, but Benjamin let us know about it as soon as he could and he was very responsive and did everything he could to get it corrected right away. The house itself is very spacious. It's a bit quirky - set up with most bedrooms on a very long hallway/breezeway, but that worked well for us. If you don't mind an older accommodation and you're looking for a good value in a great location, I would recommend.

We really enjoyed staying at this house. The house may be a little on the older side BUT it was very clean and welcoming! And we really appreciated the chairs and beach towels provided. It was also so close to the beach that we didnt even have to drive while we were there. 10 out of 10!

Ben's place is in a fantastic location--right across 30A from the beach and a quick walk to the restaurants and stores in Seaside. There are also two good restaurants right around the corner from the house. The beach itself is beautiful and not crowded. The house was extremely clean and comfortable with plenty of space to relax and chill out.

Circa 1950 beach cottage was great! Just a short little walk to the beach and lots to do around the neighborhood whether it was bike riding, hiking or just walking around! Ben was very accommodating and hospitable. I would definitely recommend this place to friends!

Communication and check in were easy and quick. The cottage is delightfully quirky in the best way (so many light switches haha!) and reminded me so much of our childhood cabin in the mountains in Arkansas. Awesome front porch. Hardwood floors throughout meant having to tiptoe with a sleeping teenager in the loft but it just added to the ambience. Our other son slept well in the front bedroom and our king bed was comfortable in the back bedroom. We loved the convenience to both Seaside shops and restaurants as well as the beach. Our boys made good use of the bikes and were thankful to have them during busy fall break. Appliances are new and worked well. Look forward to returning!

What a unique home. We loved the location. Minutes to the sand. Easy area to ride bikes. Plenty to do/places to eat. Seaside is great! I do suggest paying extra and getting the pool passes! We enjoyed the house. Porch is wonderful. Loved having different seating options on the porch. Inside the house is quirky but fun. Shower is interesting! Loft bed and bed in the kitchen area were fun for the kids. I loved cooking thanksgiving dinner on the Wolfe oven. Master bed was super comfortable. It was one of the original seaside homes.. it is showing some age.. but that is what for us gave it lots of character. We enjoyed the time at this house and hope to stay Again.

The listing was as advertised. Great historic house, close to the beach. We cooked alot and the kitchen was very well equipped. Big screen porch was amazing and perfect for some of our rainy days. Bedding was plush and comfy.

the main cottage is a beautiful classic seaside home and is very well appointed for all your needs. I am not sure it would easily accommodate 8 unless a majority of them are children & there is only one shower but the home is in a most wonderful quiet street and setting on the edge of seaside proper and just short stroll from everything you need. the owner is very professional providing all you need and works to meet your needs. we had a lovely stay.

Very very cute! My family of girls loved the Haard House!

Wonderful for our family vacation!

What a wonderful vacation spent at the Haardt's place. The street was quant and quiet. Loved the location to Seaside circle and the easy access to the beach. Can't wait to book it again for another trip!

Great location! Steps from the beach which was nice and easy. An easy few minutes walk to the center of town. The owner was very responsive throughout the whole process - top notch. Would stay again in this quirky Seaside original.

The community was great and the house was one of my favorites. They have everything you can ask for boogie boards to soft beds with clean linen. One of my favorite stays.

I could not have asked for anything more perfect! The quiet neighborhood was perfect for mid morning front porch sitting with coffee and for trail blazing in the afternoon. It was a perfectly located a short walk from Seaside for shopping and a beach day. The whole house just welcomes you in and asks you to get cozy even with ALL of its space! I promise you will feel at home immediately, your time will pass too quickly, and you will not be ready to leave! I'm DEFINITELY going to be here again!!!

We highly recommend booking a trip with this Russell Vacation Rentals!

Thank you for sharing this beautiful home with us! We had a great vacation with our children and grandparents! The house was perfect with lots of space for everyone to be comfortable. It was a quick 1 mile drive to the beach. This was our first stay in the Seaside area. The beach is gorgeous. We had a great stay and would love to come back again!

Very nice stay. It was exactly as described.

Great space in Seagrove. Close to Seaside & Seacrest. The house was easy to find, it was very clean, plenty of essentials provided, like towels, linens, and shampoo & soap. Check in/out was very easy! The screen porch was amazing, and the beds were heavenly! Rita was prompt to respond with any questions I had. Would definitely recommend this house.

Nice place, great location. Easy and prompt communication. Smooth confirmation and check in/out process

Perfect, private house and in walking distance of things! Would stay here again!

This place was a great getaway, and the pictures don't do the cottage justice. Five minute walk to the beach. Private yet conveniently close to Seaside and other attractions. 10/10 would definitely stay again.

Nice space on a quiet street. Everything was clean and comfortable. We really enjoyed our stay!

A quick walk or bike ride away from the center of Seaside and public beach access. House sits in a beautifully shaded area. Pool was perfect and a must with the Florida humidity. Screened-in front porch with ceiling fans couldn't be better. This was our first time renting a home, so we expected more essentials (more than one roll of toilet paper per bathroom, more than one roll of paper towels, more than one packet of laundry detergent, more than two packets of dish detergent), and we weren't provided with any hand soap in the kitchen or any kind of cleaner to clean the counters and table with after meals, but on the other hand, there were plenty of towels, and we were provided toiletries like soap, shampoo, and conditioner. House could use some minor but annoying fixes, like a loose towel bar, missing door hooks, a loose floor joint that I tripped over, a door that wouldn't latch, and hard-to-lock outside doors. The washer and dryer access is outside, but still attached to the house and perfectly fine. The outdoor shower needs improvement. The bedrooms are small and two of them lacked standard dressers, and the closets didn't have enough hangers, but we were able to make-do since we only packed for half of a week, knowing that we could do laundry. The grill was great to have, but there were no grill tools other than the brush (we bought our own aluminum foil and skewers, and had to make-do with kitchen utensils). The house was toddler-friendly, being that there wasn't much our 20-month old could get in to, and the enclosed porch was especially great for him, but we did initially have a hard time squeezing in a crib (we had to move the bed and nighstands in the master bedroom in order to fit a crib and a kitchen chair so I could nurse), but it all worked out fine. We were pleasantly surprised to have four bikes waiting for us (although no baby seat so we couldn't take our toddler without renting another bike with seat attached or pull-cart). The checkout process was very easy.

Host accurately reflected the listing. The house is perfectly located in Seagrove Beach just 1 block east of Seaside. The backyard pool came in handy on days the beach was not an option.

Everything was as described and easy to access once arriving in town. Great location within easy walking distance to Seaside square, restaurants, and the beach! Park the car and walk for your entire stay! Great experience, would definitely stay again!

The bedrooms are pretty small but the house is cozy and beds comfy. The pool was wonderful. Kitchen is well stocked and she left plenty of clean towels. We did have a day with no water because they were replacing the water heater. We had to delay showers trying to get to dinner. Would have been better to know ahead of time about the water

This is the most beautiful home in all of Seaside/Seagrove area! It was spacious and gorgeous and we didn't want to leave!!! Highly recommend this home for your 30A vacations. Carol was an amazing hostess and we will be back very soon!!!

Soooo awesome! We absolutely loved the house and the neighborhood was great. The walk to the beach was easy breezy. Would definitely stay there again!! The house was updated and the details were perfect! Check in was so smooth! If you have a chance to stay here do it, Seaside is our absolute favorite area!

Edgar was a wonderful host. He was very easy to contact about anything and quick to reply, helped us when we needed it and was very flexible with us. Definitely recommend!
