Artless Sprite borders the Grayton Beach State Park, named America’s #1 Beach in 2020 by Dr. Stephen Leatherman, aka Dr. Beach! “This beach boasts of its sugar-white sand and emerald green water where development has been restrained so big sand dunes still dominate the landscape. At the same time, all the amenities of great restaurants and accommodations are close by in the old town of Grayton Beach or Seaside," wrote Leatherman. Originally named the country’s top beach in 1994, Grayton Beach State Park has been listed FOUR times since 1991, finishing 6th in 2016 and 3rd in 2019.

We loved this house! We loved how close it was to all of the spots we wanted to visit and sitting on the front porch.

Great house in a super convenient location. We enjoyed cooking and eating together, time on the beach, running and biking on the trails and rainy day games. Would not hesitate to come back anytime.

Hi, Mimi...Thanks so much for your review on Artless Sprite. We are so glad you enjoyed the house and the location - we agree, both are great! Please do come back and visit us again sometime...Grayt 30A Vacations
Our stay at Artless Sprite was wonderful. The property is well-appointed, cozy, and lacks nothing. If you want a taste of “old Florida”, this is the place for you. Its rustic exterior with a yard full of shade trees is very inviting while its interior design is clean and modern. Our host made sure that everything was suitable and in working order for us. With the Red Bar, the Shops of Grayton, and that gorgeous beach all only steps away, there is nothing better than having Artless Sprite as your home away from home. We plan to return as soon as possible.

Hi, Suzanne…Thank you so much for your fabulous review for our Artless Sprite! We agree, this cozy cottage is the perfect home for an upscale “old Florida” vacation and it sits in the perfect Grayton Beach location! We’re thrilled to hear you had a wonderful stay with us at that your family enjoyed Artless Sprite as much as we do. It was such a pleasure to host your stay and we do hope you’ll came back to visit with us in the future…Grayt 30A Vacations
This house is newly renovated with a peaceful, beach vibe. Loved the furnishings and convenience of the location. We had our young adult children and their significant others with us, so the only drawback in the rooms was the 3rd bedroom has double bunkbeds that do not move to make one larger bed, so a heated sibling rock/paper/scissors was needed to figure out who got the queen room. Kitchen was nicely stocked. We cooked all our meals in the house. (The smoke detector did go off many times while cooking, so it is extremely sensitive). Netflix access in all the rooms was a great plus. Beach access was quick and we rented bikes and paddle boards. We recommend heading to Grayton Beach State Park on the left once you get off the boardwalk, if you are looking for a much quieter and prettier beach experience.

We spent our first girls’ trip since the pandemic at beautiful Grayton Beach. Artless Sprite had everything we needed to relax & enjoy ourselves. The home is beautifully decorated, clean, & well- equipped with updated appliances and amenities.You could not ask for a better location. It was a quick walk to the beach and to the famous Red Bar. Communication with the property manager re: the check-in/out was seamless. We will definitely return!

Hi, Jennifer...Thank you so much for your wonderful review on Artless Sprite! We do feel it is a hidden gem in old Grayton...we're so thrilled you enjoyed your stay! Please do come back and see us again...Grayt 30A Vacations
Oh thou artless sprite, you have shown us a wonderful time with a super clean, modern, and roomy household, perfectly located just a couple minutes walk to the access. Outdoor shower was extremely popular, and the added fans on the deck really put the icing on the cake. 10/10, would stay again.
