  Loved our stay in the Moon Baby cottage! There are not a lot of these older vintage beach properties around anymore. Love the original wood floors, that screened in porch! We were so comfortable and relaxed for our entire stay. Close enough to carry kayaks to the little boat ramp to paddle down to the beach. Definitely look forward to a return visit soon!

  After a long ride it was delightful to reach Moon Baby. The large screened in porch with its many fans and gentle breeze was the perfect place to recoup from the trip.
  The cottage is laid out smartly, with double doors from every room opening up to the lovely porch. It was nice to open them and get a nice gulf breeze throughout the house.
  The fenced in yard was a perfect place for our furry family member to have a place to roam around, although she preferred napping on the porch while we were out exploring.
  The Red Bar was excellent as usual, found some beautiful artwork at the Zoo Gallery, and all this was in walking distance.
  This trip was to commemorate a death in the family and a milestone birthday. The weather was sunny and Moon Baby was the perfect retreat.
  All communications about reservations, confirmation, and equipment rental went flawlessly. We definitely would recommend this little Oasis to anyone with a small travel party.

  Moon Baby was the perfect rental and you can't beat staying in Grayton. Walking distance to the beach and the red bar. The perfect screened in porch and fenced in yard for dogs. It was so nice to arrive and have trash bags, dishwasher pods, dish soap, laundry detergent, etc... it truly felt like a home away from home! We will be back.

  AFter coming to Grayton Beach for nearly 9 years now we have walked by moon baby several times. After finally scoring a long weekend at this amazing property, I can tell you that we will be back very soon.I took many naps on the screened in porch, enjoyed all of the local art pieces hanging in the house, and reading some of the local journals. This house is perfect for a couple or a couple with small children. The Space is a perfect layout, and the coziest beach cottage feeling you could ever imagine. Even though the house is dated, everything is in immaculate condition. The cleanliness of this house was outstanding. As previously stated, the screened in porch , painted the perfect picture for afternoon snuggles with my fur babies and multiple naps during my stay. The charm and nostalgia of cottage made me feel like I have been coming down here my entire life and I’ve never felt more at home.

  My family has stayed at Moonbaby before and every time we enter the doors we are greeted with the familiarity of what Grayton Beach used to be. We absolutely love this little cottage and say that with every visit. The home is nestled in a great location with the beach, lake and Red Bar all within just a few minutes of walking distance. This is the best little cottage and we hope to return for many years to come.

  Moon Baby is a wonderful house with a dated charm. The screened porch is a notable feature. Large with plenty of seating, it is a great lounge area and a perfect spot for your crates if traveling with your dogs. Everything was comfortable and in good working order. It was cleaned to perfection on our arrival. There is a good parking space large enough for a big pickup or SUV. A super shirt walk to all the Grayton Beach highlights.

  We loved our recent and second stay at Moonbaby. The cute little house has virtually everything we need. Comfortable beds, sheets and towels and a well stocked kitchen. We love the side porch and fenced yard. Our dogs like it too and are happy to travel with us. We all like the close access to the lake for kayaking and dog swimming. The beach is just steps away. Grayton Beach is a fun town with the Red Bar and Chiringo’s plus cute shops. The 30A bike path makes it easy to get to everything. We thoroughly enjoyed our time at Moonbaby.

  February time at Moon Baby with my corgi Blitzen was very good. Blitzen loved laying on the deck in the February sunshine and coolong it on the sceened porch. Moon Baby is an authentic old Florida cottage with lots of space. It is comfortable and provides everything one would need for a time away from Northern cold in February. Loved the sunrises over the dune lake and sunset over the gulf.

  Moonbaby was perfect for our family of three and our two pups. The location is great - close to the fishing pier and boat ramp and the beach. We liked the gear credit too! That's a great perk. The house had almost everything we needed. We noticed a few items that needed tending to and they were fixed immediately. If you don't tell the property manager when something needs to be done, they can't fix it. The house was very clean. We love the screened in porch and that's where we spent the majority of our time. The breeze, fans and the shade kept it quite comfortable. We liked it so much, we are returning next year! It's hard to find small houses nowadays so we really appreciate this offering. We also love the Grayton Beach vibe.

  If you’re looking for a quiet corner in Grayton, this is it. With views of the inlet lake, live oaks all around and old-school charm this little original bungalow does the trick. All the modern conveniences with original Grayton character and about a block to the beach. Was perfect for our week of relaxation!

  This was our first time at Grayton after years of Watercolor and Seaside. We had a great time at the house Moon Baby! It was very convenient to walk to the beach. The house was very well furnished and had plenty of room for our family. If you are looking for a peaceful, laid back, beach getaway, this house could do the trick. The management company is excellent and will provide top service.

  Spent February at Grayton Beach in Moon Baby cottage on Banfill. I return year after year because I enjoy the ready access to the unique dune lake, Western Lake, the outfill, and the beach at the gulf. Every morning is different at this beautiful beach where one can enjoy sunrises and later magnificent sunsets. The beach cottage is comfortably furnished with everything one might need for a stress free stay. This cottage and location is old time Grayton Beach at it's best. I have entertained guests and they come the next year renting their own cottage at Grayton.
