About this house rental
The Gem of Gilchrist
Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'
Sail away to this sea breeze home away from home! Just a few steps from your humble abode, you'll find the pristine sandy shores of the Gulf of Mexico where you can dip your feet in the waters, take a nap under the shade of an umbrella, or read a good book as you relax in the sun. The Gulf Range is a short drive away, where you and the family can enjoy a couple of games of mini-golfing or eat at its saloon that serves tasty food all day long.
After you're done exploring the beautiful coast, return back to your vacation rental to find a spacious main living area set up with comfortable tawny couches for you and your guests to rest on after a fun-filled day, a full kitchen equipped with stainless steel appliances, and a balcony with a breathtaking view of the waters out on the horizon. Take a quick power nap in the sun in the home's hammock or watch the sun slip under the ocean as the clouds overhead shift from its gorgeous orange hue to nighttime. Be sure to bring a couple of drinks with you and talk until the late hours of the evening with your friends. This'll be one trip you won't forget anytime soon!

The home is great for couples with children, and has a ton of things to use around the house or beach. We had a great time and hope to return again next year!

This is by far our favorite home we’ve stayed in. We will be back!

First, home is great and location is fantastic. I wish i could say i had a calm time relaxing but with the construction of a home 20ft away kinda took away the serenity of the place. 8am-4pm chainsaws going off. Terrible. Plenty of beds but on our last night we noticed the bed closest to the door had a TON of ants. We could not get rid of them. Beach was great. Also getting access to key for door was a pain. Please fix the keyless entry.

The cabin is located absolutely waterfront. Beautiful view on quiet beach. Comfortable furniture and very nicely decorated. The kitchen has everything you could need and then some! The Includes combination Kuric and drip coffee maker. Generous supply on paper products also. Several outdoor articles including games are provided. We found the entry system not user friendly but someone came and helped us in a reasonable time.

We brought our two girls (ages 12 and 10) to the beach for their birthday this year and could not have been happier with this house! Water front and a full kitchen meant we barely left the property for anything. It was very clean, we actually got to check in a hour early for free. They had a ton of game and movies for us to use when we wanted. This area of the beach wasn’t overly crowded like it seemed on either side of us. We will definitely be going back!
4.0 / 5.0
My family had a good time staying here. It’s right in the beach and it’s mostly quiet. I was surprised about how much traffic there is down the private road in front of the house. But other than that my family and I had a great stay and some good fishing.
We would stay here again if we could

Took the family for a weekend trip and it was the perfect location, easy access to beach, and all the things you would need in a home away from home! Will be back for sure!

This property was everything I had hoped it was for my kids and me. We loved are stay and the beach was just a few short steps from the home. We will definitely be back.

Perfect for the girls/moms days out. Beach was right there so we could come and go as we please
4.0 / 5.0
This is as the first time we splurged for a front row rental at the beach! Now there will be no going back. The Glen affords guests a magnificent view of the water and the beach. We spent hours in the tall chairs sipping on icy drinks (the ice machine is awesome) and watching the waves and the birds. It was the break we needed. There is even a hammock for the deck!
While it was just the 2 of us, the house is equipped with 4 queen beds in the living room and would easily sleep 10!
Everything you could need is there from beach chairs to surfing boards and beach gear for collecting shells and building castles.
The cabin is great. But if you have never treated you and yours to a house where you could step out and be on the beach this is the ticket!
5.0 / 5.0
This was hands down the most accommodating place to stay for our little family of five. Having the beach access so close is so nice when you have three young kids.the house was perfect. Thank you for having us. We will be back!

Great location and very close distance to the beach. Great little community down the road and Great seafood and food trucks. The house was wonderful and spacious and loved the decor...Coastal Living.

Friends and I stayed at The Gem from Friday thru Monday, February 16-19. I only had one problem with this beautiful house, it is so wonderful I did t want to leave!!! The home is welcoming and so comfortable. It was so hard to get of bed with the cozy comfortable mattress pads. The home’sproximity to the beach was a huge plus. And the price was right!! Hope to stay again soon!!!

The home is spacious and beautifully decorated. The finishes in in the kitchen and bath are really nice too. Our mattress was so comfortable and there were plenty of extra linens, towels, pillows etc. The little extras like laundry detergent, cleaning wipes, salt & pepper was a nice touch.
