Description

This classic Grayton Beach vacation home is located in the quiet community of Gulf Trace and accommodates up to 11 happy beachgoers. Sleeping quarters are on two separate levels providing plenty of separate space for guests with multiple beds and a queen sized sofa sleeper in the upstairs living area. The open floor plan in the main living area and a large screened porch provide lots of seating inside and out.

Out on the porch of Wahoo, the entire family can enjoy the gulf breeze and listen to the surf when the waves are high, as it's just 250 yards away. This sugary shoreline also connects to a rare and precious coastal dune lake. Such treasured bodies of water are found in very few places on the planet. In fact, besides in South Walton, coastal dune lakes are only found in parts of Australia, Madagascar, and the Pacific Northwest. A freshwater estuary bordered by dunes serves as their connection to salted water and creates a magical mixture and a huge abundance of wildlife. You might go there to fish or do a little paddle boarding. You could also take a refreshing pool plunge out back! This home comes with a private swimming pool with a patio, a table and lounge chairs for drinks or dining.

The open Great Room has two sets of double glass French doors that lead out to the screen porch from the dining and living areas. This porch spans all the way across the front of the house with a table and chairs for the enjoyment of your favorite drinks and savory snacks.  The living area has a comfortable couch, love seat and a big armchair in lovely tones of blue facing a large TV for entertainment. The dining table nearby has six decorative metal chairs with cushioned blue and white polka dotted seats around a glass topped table. Three raised cushioned bamboo framed chairs face the open kitchen that has everything you'll need to prepare a fun family feast. A breakfast table nearby may be used for games and makes a great kiddies' table.  

The Master Bedroom has a king sized bed with palm prints while a Guest Bedroom includes two twin beds with nautical accents. They share a full hall bath. The three Guest Bedrooms downstairs have direct access to the pool and share two full hall baths.  They all have a comfortable cottage style with a twin bed in one and two twins in the other. The other Guest Bedroom has a queen sized bed and is quite charming.

This little world is seemingly remote but located in the heart of Scenic 30A territory. Picture perfect Americana styled coastal villages parallel the beautiful beaches here and offer restaurants, friendly beach bars, specialty shops, galleries and delightful diversions. Grayton Beach proper is the closest but world-famous Seaside is just a few minutes further east and hosts wonderful seasonal festivals and free musical concerts.

My family and I loved staying at Ocean Reef!
The walk to the beach was so easy and we all loved the chance to go back and forth to the house throughout the day. The house itself served our purposes and even when I contacted them about a missing blender, they delivered a brand new blender the next day! The service was fast and awesome. I highly recommend. We think we have found our new vacation spot. And, the beach, was beautiful!

Comfy Little Get Away
Everything was great! Very spacious home, was great for our party of eleven. Definitely agree on one more bed possible being a queen but we made it work for everyone! The pool was just great for the kids!

11th Time @ Wahoo!
We have been coming to Gulf Trace for 30 plus years! We started in 127 Gulf Shore then to 257 Gulf Shore then back to 127. Our family has grown so much that 13 years ago we had to get a second house. We started this tradition with parents and kids then the grandkids and now great grandkids are all a part of this tradition. My part of the family has stayed in Wahoo 11 times and love it! It is clean and beautifully maintained! Updates and upgrades through the years have been a plus. The pool and the ocean have always been incredible. No way in the world can I explain the beauty of this little neighborhood off 30A. You will just have to visit it to believe it! We have been through a few rental agencies, always looking for Wahoo. Ocean Reef has been wonderful to work with. Quick answers to questions and staff is incredible! We have already booked house for next year!

Can the pool be heated?
