About this property

Crow's Nest at Blue Mountain Beach - Ocean View - Private Beach Access

  • Crow's Nest at Blue Mountain Beach by Oversee 30A | Perfect in Walton County Awards – Three-Time Diamond Winner – Best Rental Mgmt. 2026, 2025, 2024

    Relaxed, confident, and comfortably pulled together, Crow’s Nest calls Grande Beach Drive home and is surrounded by palm-lined streets and Mediterranean-style architecture that set the tone right away.

    Highlights:
    📍 Blue Mountain Beach
    👣 2-minute walk to private beach access
    🌊 Gulf views
    👙 Overlooks community pool
    🐾 Pet friendly! (small dogs only)
    🚲 6 bikes!
    🛏️ 4 bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms

    This three-story villa leans into vacation living in, and then some. Multiple balconies offer elevated views across the neighborhood, the sparkling pool below, and hints of blue water in the distance. Pull up a chair, settle in, and let time behave differently for a while.

    Inside, the main living space feels fresh and inviting, with plush white sofas and a fireplace that adds just the right amount of cozy. Large windows keep the room light-filled and connected to the scenery outside.

    The kitchen is both stylish and practical, featuring granite countertops and a welcoming breakfast bar that naturally becomes the morning coffee headquarters. Nearby, the dining area centers around a rustic table beneath an elegant chandelier, with French doors opening to yet another leafy, coastal view.

    The primary suite serves as a true retreat. A king bed, flat-screen TV, and generous storage make it easy to settle in, while rustic touches add warmth. The ensuite bath elevates the experience with dual vanities, a glass-enclosed shower, and a freestanding soaking tub placed beside tall windows that invite in soft natural light.

    A cozy bunk room adds flexibility, complete with a TV for evening wind-downs and dresser storage to keep things organized.

    Outdoors, a private sandy courtyard awaits, furnished with bright blue Adirondack chairs and framed by swaying palms. And the community pool? Just a short stroll away. Stunning!
    Crow’s Nest delivers comfort, character, and just enough polish to feel special, an easy favorite at Blue Mountain Beach.

    Oversee 30A keeps the experience smooth from start to finish. Expect a spotless home, thoughtful details, and a local team nearby seven days a week, with 24/7support.

Awesome place to stay!

This house was amazing with a great location near the beach. It is on a very quiet street. The golf cart was perfect for getting around, but there is so much within walking distance. Would definitely stay here again!

Family Spring Break

We loved our time staying at the Crow’s Nest! The house was wonderful and accommodated our family of 6 perfectly. It was clean and the access to the pool and beach was very convenient. Gorgeous neighborhood that has everything you need within a short walk or bike ride. The golf cart and bikes included was definitely a bonus! Thank you for a great stay!

Perfect place for family get away

My husband and I invited our children and grand children to celebrate our 40th anniversary. The Crows Nest was the perfect place for us. Steps away from private beach access, the community pool right next door. The house was spacious and comfortable, bikes and golf cart included. Close proximity to great restaurants and coffee shops. We all had a great time, and would definitely consider staying here again.

Visit for Wedding

We had seven family members stay and the place was great for us. A beautiful house at a great location. Made great use of the pool and beach. We had two senior family members who had a bit of a hard time on the stairs from the first floor up to the living room/kitchen area (no railing for the bottom several stairs). A new railing there would help future senior guests. Otherwise, the place was perfect and we thank the owners and management for a great stay.

Overall a nice stay

Overall the house was nice and clean. We LOVED the private beach access that was just across the street! Location was exactly what we’d hoped for. Just two small things and one issue…We feel that the golf cart needed some maintance. The battery went down VERY quickly. You could tell that the battery needed to be replaced so we couldn’t drive it very far. The cookware that was in the cabinets were not good. Haha, we actually went and bought a skillet to use for cooking breakfast in. The main issue we had was the owner had a camera mounted up in the backyard pointed directly at the hot tub. Believe me, I get as far as an owner goes wanting to make sure nothing is going on while the house is not being rented out BUT as far as being parent goes it’s very disturbing and strange that it was not mentioned in the listing info. My husband moved the camera away from the view of the hot tub and we immediately got a rather direct message saying not to touch it and they would send a maintance guy over right away to put it back. Having our teenage daughter in the hot tub while someone could be watching her, UM NO!! This camera was NOT mentioned in the overall description of the property so we feel we have a right to be upset because it was part of the appeal of the home. Regardless to say, the hot tub was not used by us.

A perfect stay on 30A!

We had a wonderful time at the Crow's Nest. The property is amazing, the beach was perfect, and the proximity to lots of things to do made the trip just what we needed. We would definitely return and couldn't thank the property management enough for the great communication. Thanks again!

Short, easy walk to beautiful beach

The house was clean, and the walk to the private beach entrance was short and easy. However, bring your own salt & pepper, dishwasher pods, and garbage bags! Other than the tiny "welcome" boxes in the bathrooms and kitchen this house is bare to the bones.

Good not great

Location is good, beach is just beautiful and right down the street. The little signs all over the property on what not to do, scratchy sheets, roasting hot loft, and lack of sheets on one of the bunk beds detracted from the stars. I would say for the cost it was good but not great. Def would not stay there if you have elderly or toddlers where stairs are a concern. Property mgmt team was very responsive.

Overdue Vacation

Lovely home and beautifully decorated. Great location on 30A with great local restaurants. Not sure the VRBO ad descriptions are as accurate as they state but was able to adjust. Huge issue for us, the private beach assigned to us was 22 minutes away, not 200 steps. A very kind and concerned lady with property management assisted us to get this corrected but we lost a half day of our stay because of this confusion.

4 day beach vacation

The location of this property was great. Very short walk to the beach. The check in process and check out process was very easy. We enjoyed our stay overall! I gave this stay a 4 star review because there were several things we noticed. The blinds in one of the bedrooms didn’t close which made changing clothes and sleeping difficult. The bunk room beds were pretty wobbly- definitely couldn’t support 2 people on the top without significant noises. The trundle bed room was up in the “crows nest” but was extremely hot. Not an ideal bedroom in our opinion. Some of kitchen pans were in poor condition as well. Again, overall- a very nice property and location!

The house was lovely and suited my crew just fine. The listing photos show carpet in the living area and there was none, so it isn’t as colorful as what’s shown. The bedrooms are fine, but the bunk bed is rickety and the room is small. I don’t know how you’d be able to use the trundle bed in there. The crow’s nest bedroom is hot during the day, but cooled off at night and sleep was comfortable. The spiral staircase is precarious so would recommend only able-bodied sober folks go up. The kitchen is small and suitable for one cook, two at most. The kitchen supplies leave a lot to be desired and sheet pans are flimsy. The only bottle opener we located was on a manual can opener and wouldn’t work. There are 3 coffee makers - Keurig, 12 cup drip, and 4 cup drip. Take your own filters. We left salt and pepper, but no other pantry basics are available. I looked in every nook and cranny for a broom and couldn’t find one. I requested one on Friday (we arrived Wednesday), was told to keep looking, and was brought one on Sunday. I requested more towels and those were brought promptly. All communication with the management company was timely and friendly. There are lots of notes around telling you not to do this or that. Adding a ‘please’ would be a nice touch. There are outdoor cameras not mentioned in the listing, fyi. We had a nice stay overall with a 5 minute walk to the beach. The kitchen would benefit from an upgrade in supplies. Would probably stay again.
