The property is perfect. Beautiful views, excellent location, we really appreciated the locking shed just steps from the dock to secure tackle, added bonus has bait freezer. Eric, the property manager stopped in daily to check on us and see if we needed anything.

Diamond head was a lovely place to stay and came exactly as advertised. Eric was available for us for our entire stay. He took us to restaurants and his nephew was our guide for fishing. We even had an issue with our transmission on the boat and he “knew a guy” who was totally honest and fixed us up! He provided us with stone crab which was delicious. We will absolutely be back!

About the host

Hosted by Brad Owings

Host profile image
Our permanent residence is on the east coast of Florida, a mere two hours away from Diamondhead. We love being able to jump in our boat and head over for a weekend or a week.

Why they chose this property

Our family enjoys fishing and boating, as well as quiet times to foster family relationships. 'Diamondhead has provided us with the opportunity to 'get away from it all' and enjoy our time together.

What makes this property unique

'Diamondhead' has provided our family with a quiet retreat to vacation with our children. Now that they are adults, they return with their friends and loved ones to make new memories and continue those special family times.
