About this house rental
High Season during the Summer (May thru Sept) is now only a minimum 5 night stay, allowing flexible check in & check out days!
Enjoy staying in one of Grayton Beach’s original homes, built in 1929 and maintained and loved by our family since 1976. The main house is a two-story frame house situated on a fenced double lot and is located about 2-1/2 blocks from the beach. In the main house, there are 3 bedrooms with 3 full baths accommodating up to 8 people maximum. Upstairs are two bedrooms – one has 2 double beds, the other a queen bed with twin bed– both with their own private bathrooms. The third bedroom, downstairs, has a bunk bed and a queen bed – great for kids. The house is perfect for two families with a couple of kids each or for three couples.
Downstairs there is a living area, kitchen with dining area, full bath and laundry facility. Enjoy the warm Florida sunshine all day with two screened porches. The private outdoor shower with hot and cold running water is nestled under the twisted oaks. Play bocce ball and grill out in the large shaded yard and walk to downtown Grayton!
ADD the guest cottage (sleeps two), in the rear of the lot, which has one queen bed, private bath, and breakfast kitchen, and is available with rental of the main house for an additional charge by adding a 9th person to the number of guests at booking time.

This was a beautiful, well appointed home that I would stay in again. Recommend highly.

Twisted Oaks was so perfect for our family. The granddaughter adored the tree swing in the backyard, under the "twisted oaks." The beach is a short walk; the kitchen is fabulous; the porches are THE BEST--where we spent "home" time, mostly, for Memorial Day week. Cannot say enough positive. Clean.

Property is very nostalgic of the homes that once graced the coastline of Florida. Charming and immaculately clean. We enjoyed our stay and hope to stay again in the the future! The children especially enjoyed the back porch and rope swing that hangs from one of the twisted oaks in the back yard. The house is two blocks from beach and our extended families also stayed close by . People in the area are very courteous and there are some great restaurants. Loved visiting near by “Watercolor” and “Seaside” and hanging out in shops at Grayton! Thank you for the pleasure of staying in this historic house!

The house is very lovely in beauty, size and location with a great backyard for corn hole and games and also a cute cottage for more guests to stay. Very few steps to the soft white sand beach and Western Lake. The owners were so good at communicating with me. We are only home a day and have to ask, is it too soon to be nostalgic? My family hopes we can make this a tradition.

This property is an easy walk to beach (or bike ride). Community is top notch. Western lake is perfect alternative for red flag days. Porches and back yard were perfect for time off beach. Plenty of comfortable beds and bathrooms. Owner is exceptional with communication and accommodating requests. We had the cottage too and used it for quiet space/ overflow.

Perfect Vacation
The house is so cute and clean. It is in the best location to easily enjoy the beach and restaurants. The owners are responsive and friendly. Make sure you allow ample time for check out as there is a lot of bed linens to wash. We loved our visit!

We stayed at Twisted Oaks with our two young children (ages 5 and 15 months), my sister and brother-in-law and their children (ages 7, 4, and 20 months), and my parents. The home was so nicely appointed with all the amenities we needed. Beds were comfortable, wifi was fast, and the kitchen was well equipped. We absolutely loved the screened porches, ceiling fans, and backyard lights - we spent most of our time on the porches, taking in the ambiance. The cottage was also perfect for those of us who needed to do some work while on vacation. And the home was an easy walk to the beach! We hope to return someday!

Childhood memories!
This house was built by my grandparents in the 1930s. My sister, brothers and I have great memories of time spent there before it was sold. We were finally able to find a weekend to enjoy time together and reminisce.
The Gentrys have done a beautiful job of restoring and updating the house. I loved the bright, comfortable, rustic decor!
The house was very clean and well kept. They went above and beyond when providing the daily essentials, especially in the kitchen.
We enjoyed time spent on the two porches. The only downside was the amount of traffic that continually passed by the house. Grayton Beach is a popular place.
We had a great time and hope to make this an annual tradition!

House was perfect for our needs (two families). It not only lived up to the photos, but I think it exceeded our expectations from the photos. Very well thought out space, great decor and impressive layout. Porches were enjoyable for relaxing, as was the living room. Owner even sent a note to check in on us the day we arrived to make sure we were enjoying our stay. Short walk or bike ride to the beach. Highly recommend this place!

We definitely loved Twisted Oaks!
The property was wonderful! The home was perfect for my family, it was cozy and comfortable with all the necessities available to make a relaxing vacation. We especially loved the screened in porch’s for dinking coffee in the morning and cocktails in the evening. The beach was outstanding and the Gulf was so blue and clean. We will definitely look to stay at Twisted Oaks again in the future!

Great family home for a relaxing beach getaway!
The house is charming with lots of character. Accommodates 9 people nicely without renting the cottage in the backyard. The screened in porches are fabulous and the extra touches like the backyard swing, BBQ pit and rolling beach wagon are lagniappe. A short walk to the beach.

Cozy cottage stay in Grayton - loved it!
We loved the charming authentic Grayton feel. In the midst of the all the historic Grayton cottages being torn down, we hope this gem remains. It's clean and functional but with loads of character. Terrific art with lots of good history of the house and surroundings. We would recommend it for anyone wantint that true Grayton experience.

Restful and relaxing
What a blessing it was for us to be able to enjoy a week at this peaceful place. We had stayed in this great house several years ago and lost the contact. It was fun for our kids to enjoy and remember things they had done years ago. Our older daughter, recently married, loved being able to show her new husband special places from her childhood. Thanks again for this restful vacation!

Home, Sweet Home!
It is Wednesday after my return from Twisted Oaks in Grayton Beach, and I am suffering post-vacation blues longing for my home, sweet home at the beach. Twisted Oaks is a wonderful place to stay with two delightful screened porches, a nice yard, a well-equipped kitchen, and comfortable beds. I have stayed at the house on at least four occasions, and every time I have felt like I was at home. The owners maintain the property extremely well. Everything is spotless. In addition, the owners are great to work with. While not on the beach, it is only two blocks from the beach and walking distance to many restaurants and bars. There is a bike rack, grill, and fenced-in yard. If anyone is looking for a comfortable home in a historic area of Florida, this is it. I cannot wait to go "home" again.

Five women travelers arrived to this beautiful house only two blocks from the beach, bars, restaurants and shops. We enjoyed the two lovely screened porches, a cozy living room and a spectacularly designed and outfitted kitchen. There were plenty of comfy bedrooms with quality linens. This was a perfect get away for the five of us. It's only a short drive to a large grocery store and other areas where restaurants and shopping were plentiful. The beach is beautiful with white, sugary sand. The drive from the airport is not very attractive with lots of strip malls and chain hotels. But, once you get to Grayton Beach you are welcomed to an old fashioned Florida beach town. I would highly recommend Grayton Beach and Twisted Oaks. We'll be back!
