About this property

Bayfront Cabin-A Unique Serene Getaway on East Bay

NOTE: If your group is large and need more accommodation, please see my adjacent larger vacation rental at Vrbo # 1014271.

This is a 3 bedroom, 3.5 bath, located right on the water. An expansive lawn and gorgeous custom dock for viewing spectacular sunsets.

This cabin is located only 15 minutes from the pristine Navarre Beach, one of only ten National Seashores and eight miles undeveloped Gulf-front. Four out of seven of the world's sea turtle species nest along this seashore - also home to towering dunes, migratory birds, and miles of trails for exploring. Not too far from Pensacola Beach, not too far from Navarre Beach, but very quiet and away from the hustle and bustle of Pensacola. Everything you need is close, but you are still nestled in a residential neighborhood.

Private and serene, this unique bay-front cabin boasts the tranquility of a lake house, the recreational potential of a beachfront cottage, and endless possibilities for summer entertaining or an engaging winter get-away. Enjoy watching dolphins swim around the dock.

The boats and boards are an extra fee of $150 for your entire stay.
If you're planning to host an event at Bayfront cabin, there is a venue fee. Please message us for further information. We'd love to explain our in house amenities that we include with this!

The most peaceful vacation ever!

I have fallen in love with the Navarre/Gulf Breeze area, and was thrilled to find this little treasure. Bayfront Cabin is very unique, and my husband and I with 3 of our children had such a wonderful time together, we didn't want to leave. We are definitely coming back!

A Hidden Gem

This is our second time to stay at the property. Our kids love it and it's just a beautiful spot. There is so much to do without even leaving the house. The sunsets are the most beautiful you will ever see. This year, we were there for July 4th and were able to view the beautiful fireworks from the pier. 5 stars all around!!

We found the perfect getaway!

We had such an amazing time.!! You literally don’t even have to leave the house except to grocery shop. The property is absolutely beautiful with the trees and dock that overlook the most gorgeous sunsets. The kids and adults stayed entertained with the paddleboards and volleyball and we had peace of mind knowing the water was not deep and no current. We will definitely be back! Thanks for everything! 5 stars all the way!

Even Better in Person

Rarely do you find a property that is even better in person, but the Bayfront Cabin is all it’s advertised to be plus more! We were thrilled by the location, views, relaxing environment, cleanliness, and spaciousness. This property is a must to consider. The location is central to Navarre and Pensacola beaches with great access to the bay, Santa Rosa Sound and many other amenities the area has to offer. So very accommodating for a large family and sleeps everyone even better than advertised. You will not be disappointed. Most of all, the property managers and owners are wonderful people that seek to make your stay a wonderful experience. We will definitely be returning.

Wonderful!!

From booking to checkout, Carol was great to communicate with! She texted me during the day of checkin to give me ways around the congested traffic, since were traveling from Texas. She was there to greet us when we arrived. The house was AMAZING! The views were breathtaking. The house was very clean, and we soon learned we had overpacked, because the house had every amenity you could imagine!! You seriously only need to bring your clothes! I've booked thru VRBO and stayed on the beach more times than I can count, and most homes do not have beach chairs, boogie boards, rafts, enough pots and pans, but not this one! It is a fully stocked beautiful home. I can not say enough nice things about Carol, she is truly on top of her game! I would get a quick text throughout the week to make sure we were ok and didn't need anything. We spent our days at the beach on Navarre beach. It's about a 10 minute drive, and the water is the beautiful emerald green, the sand is white, and it is just awesome! If we return to the area on vacation again, I will definitely book here again!! We had a total of 10, 4 adults and 6 teens, and we had plenty of room. Oh and I forgot to mention the bay!! The water is Crystal clear!! It's only about 2 1/2 or 3 ft deep. We went out pretty far and it never got deeper. The kids enjoyed the provided kayaks and paddleboards nearly every afternoon, and we didn't have to worry about them bc the water was so shallow and clear. This place is highly recommended!!!

We had the absolute best time at Bayfront Cabin! Diana w/ Bayfront met us after we arrived to show us everything and was a joy to talk to. The cabin and property had everything you could possibly need and then some. The kayak and paddle boards are worth the rental fee - our kids had a BLAST. The beauty is unmatched and the photos seriously do not do it justice! We'd stay here again in a heartbeat!

Each time we stay at this beautiful property, no one is ever ready to leave. We all start making plans to return the next year. We have all we need and more. The property managers are awesome and available if needed. The house is well equipped and comfortable. There are lots of ways to enjoy the water because of the kayaks, paddleboards, floats that are provided. What fun!! We are never disappointed!

Property management company is excellent! Responds immediately, & maintains the property in excellent condition. If we visit Pensacola again we will definitely book this property. Great location & setting with well maintained grounds. The house itself is setup perfectly for multi families with each bedroom having it’s own bathroom plus a powder bathroom. I was very impressed with the property & management company.

Reunion trip

4 couples that graduated together in 1962-63 have gotten together every spring for last 16 years (one of the couples actually lives in the area). The cabin was the perfect getaway location. The beds were very comfy. The views spectacular. The property manager was the BEST!!! and it has the most well stocked kitchen (pots, pans, every kind of baking dish and bowl)of any I've ever stayed in. We look forward to staying at the cabin in the future.

peaceful getaway

We so enjoyed our stay at Bayfront cabin. The property is just as is pictured! With having two little ones the yard was a big plus. They enjoyed looking for lizards and running in play. We used the hammocks, fire pit and loved watching the sunset from the dock! When weather permitted we went in the water, which was chilly but so clear. We made use of the kayaks as often as we could. We drove to Navarre beach about a 15 minute ride which was lovely and not overly crowded. We also enjoyed grocery delivery prior to our arrival by grocery concierge and a wonderful dinner and brunch by private chef Jekyll. We hope to return during summer months when the water will be warmer.

Will definitely be back!

My family came here for the holidays to visit with family who live in Florida. For all the gatherings everyone wanted to wanted to keep coming back to the bayfront cabin. The setting was perfect for families with children. It had the beach feel to it with the water of course, the pier & dock, the kayaks that are offered, and the décor. But what I loved the most is that it had a cozy cabin feel, especially for the holidays. Between the water and the back porch is enough grass for the kids to run and play. With the huge fire pit in the back and all the lightnings along the trees in the evening was just magical. Carol and Diana went above and beyond making us feel welcome and comfortable. The bedrooms were perfect. My husband and I stayed downstairs in the master bedroom and upstairs was a room with bunk beds for the kids beside another king bedroom for their parents. Each bedroom had their own bathroom which is wonderful. Thank you for making this trip so much more wonderful than I had imagined.

Great vacation spot!

The waterfront property was great! The views were beautiful and the owners were great. Great communication! The house is set up great for multiple families or a large family. We were there on rainy days but still had a great time. We fished off the dock and played volleyball in the water in between the rain. Will definitely stay there again!

About the host

Hosted by Carol Litz

Host profile image
It’s hard not to fall in love with the unique tranquility of East Bay. That’s exactly what happened when we dropped by one summer to visit some old family friends. When we purchased the Lodge and later the Cabin, we didn’t see countless months of repairs and renovations, we saw dream homes with eccentric character. Leaky ceilings and damaged walls seemed to be a distant footnote in light of our vision to use this plot to foster and encourage community and family.

What started as a family project quickly morphed into a community affair. As weeks turned into months and these projects continued endlessly, we became acutely aware of how many people were needed to get these homes repaired and running. We are so grateful for all the help we’ve received and the lasting community that was built. The result of this nearly two-year-long project and seemingly elusive dream, is a unique get-away space that can be tailored and utilized in countless ways.

Bayfront Lodge and Bayfront Cabin, rented together or separately, make up the ideal location for family vacations and your next important occasion. You will not find a more peaceful or unique setting in the area.

Why they chose this property

This beautiful home became a family project/adventure, and they've enjoyed every step of the journey. They hope you enjoy the peacefulness and adventure potential of this place as much as they do.

What makes this property unique

The trees and lawn of this fabulous property are gorgeous. It has a lake house feel and the custom dock is the best place to watch the sunset. Beautiful white sand beaches within 15 minutes; Fishing; Paddle Boarding; Kayaking; Volleyball net in the water. So much to do!
