This house is in a great location. Overall, I was pleased. Benchmark was quick to respond to any of our questions/concerns. The only "cons" I have are for the owners and would make this a 5 star property...add more towels (1 per person per week is not enough), invest in better bedding (sheets paper thin, NO blankets provided, xtra pillows soiled and had no pillow cases until Benchmark dropped some off), include beach towels, include beach chairs, keep cleaning supplies and a vacuum in the house (this would also help your cleaning staff on the back end), smart tv's needed

This home was perfect for our 1st time Florida vacation. The location is perfect and the 7 minute walking distance to the beach. The cleanliness of the outside of the house and indoor was beautiful. We would totally come back and recommend this home rental.

This home was perfect for our stay of 6 adults, 2 teens, and 3 kids! We cooked breakfast and dinners everyday, perfect kitchen, dining, and living set up! Bathrooms were perfect too! We walked to the beach everyday and even hiked in the lush forest just minutes away. There were shops, restaurants, even a place to buy fresh seafood, which was excellent and all within walking distance! Pool on the property was shared by a few homes, but it was never crowed when we went for a swim. We would highly recommend this property.

Reviewer Comments:
House was perfect, really enjoyed the setup and furnishings in the house. Great location, very short walk to the beach across 30A and nice couple areas within walking distance to get a drink, coffee, food, beach items. Pool was in good shape, a nice add for the trip.Only downside for me on the trip was the WiFi (and in turn cell service, though this has been the case often for me on trips down to 30A). I work a decent amount on these family trips and the WiFi was very very slow and because the whole 30A area generally has terrible cell service using a hotspot doesn't help. Not a big issue, nor anything enough to take off a star just a note for those of you working a bit while here.Either way one of the top houses we've had a chance to stay in down in the area and could see us coming back in the future.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the “Little Bird’s Nest!” The kitchen was large and perfect for preparing and enjoying our large group meals. We loved that the private pool was so close to the unit. Our favorite thing about our stay was the beach. It was a short walk to the beach access which included a nice restroom, as well as a drinking fountain with a water bottle filler. The beach had a lifeguard and was not crowded! I would absolutely stay here again!

Our stay at Little Bird's Nest in Blue Mountain was 10 out of 10. We've already booked again for next year. The house was comfortable and perfectly located steps from the pool and a very short walk to the beach. We enjoyed Goatfeathers, Blue Mountain Bakery and the little ice cream shop by the beach. The drive to Seaside was easy, although we had everything we wanted in Blue Mountain. Don't miss out on Little Bird's Next. We loved it!
Great location, nice pool and quiet area. Just a short walk to the beach. The beach house has plenty of room. Love the location of the bunk beds. Only thing needed was more towels and a few additional kitchen utensils. I highly recommend this beach house!!!!
