🛏️ The Space

Designed to capture the laid-back magic of Alligator Point, Point & Paddle feels like a modern beach cottage tucked between forest and water. Every room is thoughtfully styled — from the king bedrooms with bold wallpaper and natural light, to cozy guest spaces dressed in soft neutrals and woven textures.

Ground Level
• King Bedroom: A calm retreat featuring natural textures, bold coastal accents, and easy access to the main living area.
• Bunk Room: Fun and functional with twin-over-twin bunks — perfect for kids or extra guests. Both rooms share the hall bath on this level.

Upstairs
• Open Loft Space: At the top of the stairs, this airy, open area includes a queen bed and a full-size pull-out sleeper sofa. It does not have a door, so it’s best for family members or guests comfortable with shared spaces.
• King Bedroom: A private, light-filled room featuring a king bed and soft linens.

Bathroom: Conveniently located between the king bedroom and the loft area, this upstairs bath includes a walk-in shower and fresh coastal finishes.

Gather for meals in the glass-top dining space, or head out to the deck to grill and unwind while herons glide across the pond. Inside, you’ll find a well-equipped kitchen, comfortable living area, and spaces that make you want to slow down.

🎲Game Room
Just off the back deck, through the screened porch door, you’ll find a separate game room — a fun bonus space for guests of all ages. It includes an air hockey/pool/ping pong combo table, a smart TV, and a bar counter with two bar stools for hanging out or enjoying drinks after a day on the water. There’s also a full bathroom with a shower for added convenience.

⛱️This game room also houses guest-use items such as the beach wagon, beach umbrella, beach chairs, and life vests for the kayaks, making it easy to grab everything you need for a day of exploring the coast.

🌴 Outdoor Living

Step onto your private dock to watch sunrise or cast a line. Launch one of our kayaks for a peaceful paddle, then come back for a shower or a nap in the screened porch lounge. As night falls, listen for frogs, crickets, and the gentle rustle of pines — it’s coastal calm.

📍 Location

Nestled at the southern tip of Bald Point, this home offers quick access to:
• Bald Point State Park (2 min)
• Angelo’s Seafood Restaurant (15 min)
• Posey’s Steam Room & Mineral Springs (15 min)

About the host

Hosted by Matt & Cara

Host profile image
Hi, we’re Matt and Cara, the owners of Point & Paddle.

Our journey here started with a love of the coast, hospitality, and creating spaces where people can slow down, reconnect, and feel at home. Matt is a chef by trade, and Cara is passionate about design and community—together we’ve poured our energy into turning this waterfront home into something more than just a vacation rental.

We wanted Point & Paddle to reflect the natural beauty of Alligator Point while still giving you the comforts of a thoughtfully designed home. Every detail was chosen with care—bold wallpaper and cheerful furniture to brighten your mood, luxury mattresses to make sure you sleep deeply, and a fully stocked kitchen so meals become part of the memories.

But what truly makes this place special is its setting. We’re right on Mullet Pond, with a private dock where you can fish, kayak, or watch the sunset ripple across the water. The home borders Bald Point State Park, one of Florida’s best-kept secrets for birding and wildlife. Whether you’re sipping coffee on the screened-in balcony with barrel swivel chairs, relaxing on the Adirondack deck, or curling up in the sunroom with outdoor-style furniture, you’ll always be surrounded by nature’s calm.

For us, Point & Paddle is more than a property—it’s a reflection of the life we want to share with others: peaceful, beautiful, and connected. We hope you’ll feel the same sense of joy and renewal here that we do every time we walk through the door.

Welcome to Point & Paddle—we can’t wait to host you.

— Matt & Cara
