We had an amazing time during our mother/daughters trip, and this house was absolutely perfect for us. It provided ample living space, and the bedrooms were wonderfully spacious. The kitchen was well stocked, making it a breeze to prepare meals, and we loved sipping on our glasses of wine while enjoying the porch. The house's location was ideal, as it was conveniently close to the boardwalk for easy access to the beach. We couldn't have asked for a better place to stay.

Beautiful home in one of the best locations in Rosemary. Plenty of space for our large family to both spread out and be together. The beds were comfortable, kitchen well appointed, everything you need for a fantastic beach vacation. The owner was very responsive and helpful! We would definitely stay here again, thanks for a great trip!

We have stayed for many years in Rosemary and this home is a perfect location! The owner Elizabeth, was very helpful & nice! Everything in the home is very comfortable. Beds were comfortable, which is a big deal! Kitchen is stocked with anything you need! We used the ice maker a lot! I am a designer so I wish some things were updated to current trends but overall the home is great. This home has two masters. One up, one down. Love the room with two queen beds! We didn’t use the bunk room but if we would have had more people with us, it would have been great! The third floor deck is lovely to watch sunsets! Thank you for allowing us to stay in your home! We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves!

We recently stayed in the McDonald house - 2 families,: 4 adults, 6 kids (ages 5-12). We have rented in Rosemary multiple times and this is now our favorite home. LOCATION: The location is perfect... on a walkway to the beach, close to pool, green space and the shops/restaurants. INTERIOR: The pictures do not do the interior justice. The layout is great. There was plenty of room to spread out. We cooked all our meals and we weren’t missing one thing in the kitchen. Plus there was more than enough seating for our group of ten (seating for meals and seating to relax). All the beds are very comfortable and the bedrooms have en-suite bathrooms (not just the two TRUE masters). The bunk room is huge! The third floor deck is a great place to hangout with its ocean views. The wrap around deck was also an enjoyable place to relax. I should be embarrassed that this serves as a highlight of the house... but they have a new high end, large capacity washer and dryer (with six kids that don’t know how to hang a towel and change after every swim, we really appreciated the new machines that aren’t pictured in the photos). The home also has an outdoor closet that was fully stocked with beach chairs, boogie boards, sand toys, etc. Owner: The owner was responsive, thoughtful and made sure we knew everything we needed to know and had everything we needed to enjoy the home. I would book this home again and again!

We stayed here with 3 families (13 total). This was a great house for a large group. Great location in Rosemary only steps away from crossing D. Only challenge was only 10 place settings of silverware, so bring plastic ware for a large group.

This house has it all. Great roof top with perfect views. We went with 3 families (8 kids in all). The house was perfect and the gave us all plenty of space. The owners were very responsive to questions and proactive about our stay. They kitchen had everything we needed. Perfect walkability to the beach, pools, sugar shack, and tennis courts. We will be back (maybe at the guest house if it is just one family).

We thoroughly enjoyed our family gathering at the McDonald home in Rosemary Beach. It had a wonderful open kitchen, fully equipped, and a large den for the family gathering. The dining table was great for at least 12 people. It is close to the beach and downtown restaurants/shops. The kids loved riding the bicycles around town. We highly recommend this home for a family vacation.

Great house! Our family has stayed in many houses at Rosemary over the last 10+ years. This is the best. Everything about the house is top notch-location, furnishings (most comfortable beds ever), kitchen, house layout for family gatherings, owner's professional nature etc. There is not a better house in Rosemary. This house is not cheap but it is worth every dollar and we will be back. Rent this one and you will not be sorry.

We just returned from a fantastic trip with four families at this house and it was amazing. The layout is very conducive to entertaining and group interaction, but there is also plenty of space to get away for some quiet alone time as well. Every bedroom is spacious and the kids' bunk bed room was almost as much fun as the beach! The house is located very centrally, steps away from the beach, two pools, and the shops and restaurants of Rosemary. We will definitely be coming back! Thanks for a great time.
