We loved our time here! It was great walking directly out to the beach, and we also loved watching the waves from the deck when the weather hasn't great. House was great and had plenty of room for our group of 7 adults, 2 babies, and a dog. It's about a 15 minute drive to the main area of PCB, but there are other restaurants and shops much closer.

For both our family and our furry kids, this was the PERFECT location for our vacation. Instead of worrying about walking to the beach and bringing everything with you, it was just 50 feet outside of our door all day every day. This property is private, quiet, serene and the water access was the best part by far. The 2nd floor balcony also provided awesome views of the beach and water and the entire place was extrememly comfortable and worked perfect for our needs. Great value compared to many other beachfront homes on 30a

Fantastic location!

Excellent location right on the beach. The property itself is little run down and for a very small investment it could easily become just as beautiful inside as the views it commands.

Great beach home

Location on the beaches was wonderful, having access to pool was great. We had a wonderful week. While I realize it’s hard to do with back-to-back rentals, this home could use a thorough deep cleaning.

2024 Family Beach Trip

The house was in a great location and we loved that it was just steps to the beach. The house could use a little updating and new furniture and I didn't care for the shared pool situation but overall it was great! Family concensus is that we would definitely stay again.

Great family stay!

January 11, 2020 I rented this property for my family to stay at for my sons wedding. This was perfect for us. Well stocked with towels, cooking utensils, games, puzzles, and much more. There were lots of sand toys for the children to play with on the beach. We loved this place and will definitely be coming back here!

Great beachfront spot

This place is great for large family groups. Plenty of space. True beachfront location sand right off the front porch. It’s a true traditional inlet beach experience. Not many spots like this left in inlet beach. 5 stars.

Great home, Great Location

We greatly enjoyed are stay at Katherine's Sandcastle! The location was wonderful from being right on the beach to only minutes from 30A to only about 40 minutes from Destin and about 20-30 to Panama City. The home was spacious and comfortable. The extra fridge in the garage was a nice added touch and the gas grill was stocked with propane for cooking. We enjoyed having the chairs setup for us everyday and great private beach! Would definitely stay here again!

There is something magical about this house. We've been here several times the past six years and each stay has been exactly as expected (although, to be fair, the first time exceeded our expectations). The updates are nice, although I miss the carpeted areas (I am not used to walking on stone all over the house).

Beach Getaway

Comfortable beach house in a great location. It was lovely to wake up and walk onto the beach. House comfortably slept the 11 of us. Host provided water toys (boogie boards, paddle boards, life vests) as well as beach chair and umbrella set up. I would have given it a 5 star rating if linens, towels, and dishes were in better condition and quality. I would definitely recommend this host and home if you are looking for a beach getaway.

First off, if you want literally right on the beach this is it! We had a great stay, and the AC unit is ice cold. The only complaints (first world problems) is wished the bathrooms were bigger, just not enough counter top space. The host is excellent! There were plenty of beach chairs, umbrellas, sand toys and a kayak. The outer deck is wonderful, and 2 grills ready to go for cooking. I’d definitely come back. Some will say “it’s dated a bit”…..well a little but we weren’t here for a 5 star resort. Bottom line, if you have a big family or several and want right on the beach this is it.

Great find!

From booking to staying, this property was great! The hosts were very friendly, very helpful, and very accommodating. The weather was temperamental, but Jay (Damon’s brother) was VERY helpful with setting up chairs, giving us advice about the beach, and coming to set up whenever we requested if the weather got better. There were plenty of activities and water toys to enjoy and we even enjoyed a bonfire one evening (would totally recommend spending the money for this!). The house was lovely- furniture was a little outdated and rundown, but to be expected with a rental that’s rented out all the time. Overall, we couldn’t beat the location and helpfulness. Thanks SO much!

About the host

Hosted by Damon Dismukes

Host profile image
The property was first purchased by my grandfather around 1949-1950. He built the first "beach houses" for the family to come to from Enterprise, Alabama in the 50's. My parents took over in the 80's and decided to update the homes. This house was built in 1992 for rentals and family enjoyment. My kids are the 3rd generation of kids growing up on this beach.

What makes this property unique

The house is unique because we have nothing between the house and the beach. The house was built with multiple family use in mind. We have 1 bedroom down stairs which is helpful with grandparents that come and cant climb stairs. It also helps that there is minimal stairs to beach and grandparents and parents can feel close to kids on beach while staying on porch or inside. The houses bedding it set up to maximize comfort for splitting ups group need for kids, baby's and parents.
