Relaxing
We enjoyed the area so much, and the house is 'as advertised'. So dark at night we stargazed and watched comets, satellites etc. Eat at Poseys, go to Wakuylla and take the boat tour and have a meal in the dining room. Lot;s of fishing and boating opportunities....or just bring some books.

Little piece of heaven!
If you are looking for some where to simply enjoy the beach with very few people around, this is the place! The beach is pristine, perfect for looking for shells! The home is relaxing and literally steps from the beach. The porches offer a perfect place to realax and listen to the waves crash! We have been to other beach areas in Florida, but this was super special!

LITTLE SLICE OF HEAVEN
The house was clean, tastefully furnished and the beds were very comfy. The views and proximity to the beach were amazing. Having access to the dock with the covered sitting area was icing on the cake. Can't wait to go back!

Fantastic stay at the Skipper!
The perfect place for a group of four. This a not a place to go if you a looking for a touristy area. It was absolutely perfect for us. Quiet, beach access right out back. All the amenities we needed and spacious enough we weren’t in each others way. We’d definitely stay here again.

Great spot to relax
Great house located directly on the gulf. The house had everything we needed, two bedrooms three bathrooms and great views of the ocean from two outside decks. Very quiet area.

Beautiful view and perfect place to get away
The property is beautifully located to enjoy the waves from the gulf. The beach is quiet and the area is amazing. Away from the hustle and bustle. Plan to pack your meals in and the kitchen is well stocked with cookinb essentials. The outdoor shower is great to rinse off the salt and sand. The patios have great outdoor furniture to sit and enjoy the Gulf. Communication with the host was excellent. Dont pass this up!

Perfect Getaway
The house is right on the beach. There are two levels of porches that offer the most beautiful views of the beach and the sunrises and sunsets. It was so peaceful! It was just me and my dog. The beach is dog-friendly and it is gorgeous! There is a nice paved path beside the street that is great for walks or bike rides. It feels so remote and so special there. I definitely recommend it!

Vacation 2024
Wonderful vacation spot if you enjoy a quiet beach, cooking dinners and a relaxing laid back atmoshere. The rental is lovely! We were steps from the beach. The porch furniture was inviting and comfortable. The perfect spot for morning coffee or a little spirits after a day on the beach. So many rentals have hard, cheap uncomfortable porch furniture. We spent most of our time lounging on the porch (when not on the beach). It was hard to leave! We enjoyed our stay and look to return, Thank you for sharing your little peace of happiness!

Great Sunsets
This beach house was very clean and well outfitted. The 2 covered decks overlook the beach and provide the best sunsets. The master bed might be the most comfortable bed I've ever slept in. The living room could use a more comfortable couch. Having laundry was a bonus. We really enjoyed our stay!

Best spot right on the beach!
A perfect 5-star retreat! This beach house was an absolute gem—secluded, well-equipped, and a dream come true. Waking up to gorgeous sunrises, kayaking adventures, and incredible sunset views made every moment special. The owners provided thoughtful touches and made our stay unforgettable. My dog’s beach freedom was the cherry on top. Highly recommend for a blissful getaway! They have replaced the living room sofa with a very comfortable sofa with a chaise attached and also put a tv in the master bedroom. We will definitely be back!

Exceeded expectations :)
We were thoroughly impressed with this property- the view is amazing, home has thoughtful extra touches (our doggo was very appreciative) and was incredibly clean. We got daily AM visits from birds and The White Squirrel. Very glad to be coming back in a couple of months! Owner has been very kind and responsive to any queries.

Nature at its finest
We had a wonderful stay at the Skipper. The home overlooks the beach and the two balconies were perfect areas to read, play games, & eat meals. The beds were extremely comfortable, the A/C works GREAT, & the showers have water pressure! We did not see dolphins this trip but we did see a family manatees! We will definitely try to book the Skipper when we come back to Alligator Point.

Wonderful location and home!!
We thoroughly enjoyed our time on Alligator Point. This home is within the private beach area so no public access folks. Super low crowds. The house is wonderful as a whole!!! We hope the house soon receives some basic updates (kitchen faucet and heavily used and older stove, vacuum that works well) to keep it on par with the rate charged. The upper deck is fantastic for watching sunsets and we dream of returning here another time.

WOW!!! IT WAS WONDERFUL!!!
We had never been to Alligator Point before & weren't sure what to expect. We absolutely loved staying at the Skipper! We were there for a week & hated to leave!! The house was wonderful & had everything we needed! Slept great & enjoyed our morning coffee on the deck. The views were spectacular! We fished & swam every day there. The neighbors couldn't have been any nicer! We loved the Skipper & Alligator Point so much that we booked it again for next summer just 2 days after we got home! The owner, Robin couldn't have been any sweeter! We all said that this was our best vacation yet! I would highly recommend staying at the Skipper! We can't wait to go back again!! 😀

Amazing ocean front house!!
This place was awesome. Even with two flights of stairs..Or Three if you count the stairs going to house. Beds on main level with 2 bedrooms 1 queen with tv or king with no tv and 2 bathrooms. The master bathroom is small but it's nice to have your own bathroom. Also helpful that you had a bathroom close to use. Two beautiful decks with amazing views. Loved the dock on bay side as well. Multiple fishing spots. October was amazingly quiet and very private. My dog loved being off leash. I will 100% rent this place again. Host was very nice and easy to communicate with. She even asked if we wanted a Tv for master but we loved it without. Amazing place to stay and fish and enjoy the ocean front views and access to the beach.

Very quiet, secluded and beautiful beach
The weather did not cooperate while we were here so we had some cold days to start with still did lots of walks on the beach, but the wind and coldness made it difficult to get in the water. Our last two days were wonderful nice and warm calmer waters. This is a very secluded area. Make sure you’ve got your groceries together when you get there there’s a great seafood restaurant in panacea And a person that sells fresh seafood, reaper and red snapper fillets. I recommend you get the rest in Tallahassee or wherever you fly in and there’s a Publix or Winn-Dixie to get decent produce The place is well stocked could use a few new pans. If you’re doing a lot of cooking pretty much everything else we needed was there except for anything that’s consumable well decorated very comfy beds Great to sit out on the deck and have a cuppa coffee in the morning and watch out at the ocean and sea dolphins
