Sloan, Alpharetta, GA	We had such a wonderful time here in October that we had to come back for Thanksgiving! We loved the rain-showers on the metal roof and the brisk breezes on the beach. What a great way to relax and celebrate the holiday.

Oglesby, Nashville, TN	We had a wonderful week in your home. We usually stay in Destin, but decided it has become too crowded -- this little community was just perfect. We enjoyed the food from Seagrove Market and especially Nick's on 30A. Our son, who is 7, thought the pool was the best part of the house -- but the little room upstairs where he read Harry Potter each afternoon was a close second. We hope to return.
Johnston, Murfreesboro, TN	What a wonderful vacation! ... We couldn't have asked for a more delightful week of R&R!

Bolen, Chattanooga, TN	It was exactly what we were looking for. The beach is the most beautiful I have seen. Thank you for a relaxing 7-days.
Gillespie, BC, Canada	Wonderful holiday! Unbelievable to be swimming in the pool and sitting in the sea in October! Awesome house with every conceivable comfort. Slept like a charm in my huge bed, lulled to sleep with sea breezes. I love the decor of the house and the tasteful color schemes. It truly is a dream house.
Berry, LeGrange, GA	What a wonderful vacation! We love your home and can't wait to come back. We had everything we needed. Thank You!
Thompson, Fayetteville, GA	Second visit was just as wonderful as the first. New sound system is great. Thanks for sharing your fabulous home.
Sloan, Alpharetta, GA	What a terrific time we've had! The balmy November weather allowed us to be in shorts everyday. We practically had the beach to ourselves and enjoyed the sunsets while watching numerous manta rays swimming so close to shore. We managed to get ourselves out of bed early on the weekend to experience the spectacular Leonids meteor showers from the beach -- absolutely awesome! Thank You!
Man, Atlanta, GA	Ed and I had a wonderful time this week. Thank you for sharing your beautiful house and being gracious hosts. I look forward to many more visits.
Thompson, Fayetteville, GA	Absolutely wonderful vacation. Love the new additions to the home ... the walkway and garden! We celebrated our 5th anniversary. Also enjoyed the pool, books and sound system. Thanks once again for sharing your home.
Bullen/Strunk, Morristown, TN	What a lovely setting for a reception after the wedding. You received so many compliments from our guests. We appreciate your thoughtfulness and kindness!
Fessenden, Kokomo, IN	We had a great week. Our boys enjoyed the pool as much as the beach. The weather has been perfect. Thanks for sharing your lovely cottage.
Gayle, Atlanta, GA	Thanks for a great week ... this is truly "a garden for the soul" -- close to nature but a skip from the ocean. "Liz" the lizard ant-cop entertained us by day and the stars and moon by night. Must we go?!
Rebecca, Atlanta, GA	We can't thank you enough for letting us spend another lovely long weekend. Anyone interested in taking a great fishing trip should call Stan Phillips at 850-654-4575. We have been fishing with him three times now and caught a variety ... Amberjack, many Red Snapper, Grouper, Black-Fin Tuna and King Mackerel. We probably have at least 50-lbs of filets from this trip alone! All in all it's been a great trip once again. We hate to leave. The sea kayaks are definitely worth it -- go chase the dolphins! Thanks again and again!
Gallivan, Roswell, GA	We can't thank you enough for letting us use your lovely home. Everything was wonderful -- the weather, the water, the food -- just what the doctor ordered. You are wonderful and we thank you again.
Delgado, Atlanta, GA	We love your house! But most of all we love the feeling it has of being "home". This is the perfect place to relax and feed your mind and spirit. God Bless this house. Thank You!
Wrays, Warsaw, IN	For two busy families, the quest for fun, relaxation and restoration can seem elusive. But we found it all here. Your home gave us a restful haven and a place to build great memories. We hope to come back many times. Thank you for furnishing your home so beautifully and comfortably. We felt like pampered guests. Many thanks.
Hubner, Mooresville, IN	We've finally found a little piece of heaven! We enjoyed your wonderful home, it was so comfortable and enjoyable, especially the pool. Thanks so much.
Mayson, Roswell, GA	Thanks again! Visit #3. Short but sweet due to hurricane Isidore. Your thoughtfulness and house is perfect as always. PS -- hearing the rain on the metal roof was soothing.
Thompson, Fayetteville, GA	As always, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. It has become "our home away from home" and we always look forward to the beauty of the cottage and the peaceful setting within.
Chiolero, Myrtle Beach, SC	We can't begin to tell you how much we've enjoyed staying at your beautiful vacation home! I spent literally hours (20+) searching on the internet for the perfect place to spend our vacation and anniversary. Although the pictures on the internet site of your home are lovely, it doesn't fully do it justice. The rooms are so much larger than we thought they would be. Your decor is great. Wonderful choices of color schemes and accent pieces. How lucky and blessed you are to have such a beautiful home. We especially appreciate the fact that you too are pet lovers and allowed us to bring our beloved Cocker Spaniel, Jasmine, with us. Your 1-2-1 Agent, Lorraine Sloan, has been fabulous! Originally your house was not available for all the dates we wanted. Fortunately, Lorraine retained our name and phone number and contacted us when it became available again. Lorraine was also very helpful in providing us with additional information on the area and where to go to celebrate our wedding anniversary. Lastly, thank you so very much for the card, flowers and delicious champagne. What a wonderful surprise, so very thoughtful of you. We hope to return here in years to come.
Spurlock, Alpharetta, GA	A thankful Thanksgiving! We can't thank you enough for sharing your special beach cottage with us for the holidays. We had a blast entertaining our relatives over the holiday weekend. We look forward to returning in the near future.
Bond, Longwood, FL	Walton Cottage is truly a jewel by the sea! We enjoyed having a "home" away from home to get together with our family. Thanks so much.
Washburn, Lousiville, KY	We loved everything about Walton Cottage, except the fact that it isn't ours! This place was way more than we expected -- huge bedrooms! The weather could have been nicer -- but if it was nasty out, we had the best place to cozy up inside.
Craley, McLean, VA	Sadly, packing to leave. We had a lovely time in your wonderful Walton Cottage. Our weather was perfect as was your home. A great vacation was had by one and all.
Bordelon, Slidell, LA	Our goal for any getaway is to have all the comforts of home w/o the distractions of our life back home. My nephew, Paul, is in the Army National Guard and leaving for Afghanistan. He wanted to see Florida before he left, so I went on a hunt to find an available place. Thank goodness we found you! He'll always have special memories. He's like my son and this trip was very special. My girls LOVED the pool. Seagrove has always been a preferred, quiet place over Destin. If I could change anything, it would only be to stay longer. Hopefully my nephew will come back safe and sound, Lord willing, and we will be back as a family to get away from our hectic lives. We loved everything .. beds are comfy, pool is refreshing, amenities are like home, pillows and blankets are plenty, surround-sound is "the bomb", pet-friendly is great for Josie, our poodle, who loved every minute. We would love to come back in October.
Gee, Nashville, TN	Awesome! Most relaxing, perfect house and pool. Were made for 2 couples and 2 kids. Weather was wonderful all week. Food, shopping and playing fit the bill.
Ownsby, Hendersonville, TN	We truly enjoyed Walton Cottage. We had a very peaceful and relaxing time. The house was very comfortable and the pool was awesome! We all had such a great time that we decided to make this family vacation an annual event! Everything was terrific! We all loved it!
Johnston, Murfreesboro, TN	Although it rained on us a little we had a lovely time for the 3rd year in a row. But now we're packed and ready to leave (boohoo).
Parten, Marietta, GA	This has been a great week! The weather was beautiful, the beaches are as pretty as ever and the fresh seafood can't be beat. This was our first time staying here and the pictures don't do the house justice. The house and pool are incredible! Thanks for letting us stay in this beautiful home. We look forward to coming back.
Jennings, Camden Point, MO	Weather has been beautiful, the house is wonderful, and Yianni's is super. Thank you for sharing your place with us. Hope to return next year to enjoy all of it again.
Harrision, Chattanooga, TN	Thanks you so much for the perfect vacation getaway. We loved Walton Cottage. You have thought of everything. We enjoyed all the fresh flowers! The pool was wonderful. We loved the privacy of the cottage and the walk to the beach. We hope to come back next year!
Coartney, New Albany, IN	Walton Cottage was a wonderful place to stay -- spacious rooms and all the amenities we needed. The pool was great but too cool to swim. It was great to be back in Seagrove Beach and we look forward to coming back. PS. Lorraine was wonderful.
Summers, New Albany, IN	Thanks for providing such a wonderful place to stay. The house is actually bigger than we expected and so close to everything. Lorraine was very helpful too. The pool was too cool to swim but the ocean was perfect!!
Thompson, Fayetteville, GA	Our fall vacation was absolutely wonderful -- a beautiful home, terrific weather (unseasonably warm) and fabulous food. Once again we truly enjoyed Walton Cottage. We truly appreciate having the opportunity to stay in such a beautiful and peaceful home. Maddie especially enjoys "sunning" by the pool. Lorraine is always wonderful assisting with all our plans. It is truly a joy to work with her. Thank you for providing the perfect place to relax.
Dorr, Pensacola, FL	This is a lovely home. As we are about to downsize ourselves, I found this to be as spacious and interesting and warm as a home could be. Many thanks.
Spurlock, Atlanta, GA	Well we made it back for our 2nd Thanksgiving. We plan on making this a tradition for years to come. Thank you for sharing your little piece of heaven with us.
Lee, Toronto, Canada	Sadly our time at Walton Cottage is coming to an end. We have thoroughly enjoyed our stay. In fact, it's become our second home -- from cozy evenings by the fireplace to relaxing by the pool on a "Seagrove sunny day"-- it's all been wonderful. We've read many of your books from your extensive library, barbecued on the pool-side grill, danced to the tunes on your stereo and cooked many a delicious meal in your gourmet kitchen. Our many visitors from Canada all loved your place .. they all said "why would you buy when you can rent Walton Cottage, it's great". Thank you for allowing us to share in your dream vacation home.
Lago, Bernardsville, NJ	Late for the airport, but wanted to say THANKS! We came for the wedding of our friends (that we introduced). Big family and crew from OH, CA, Atlanta and Washington, DC -- had a blast. Loved your beautiful home. Our two-year old calls it "HER" beach house. Hope we can return again soon.
Kim, Covington, LA	How sad it is to leave this lovely cottage by the sea. We can't wait to visit again.
Blanton, Ball Ground, GA	Thank you is such a small word to say how much we appreciate the opportunity to stay in your beautiful home by the sea. It is perfect! Just so peaceful. Thank you so much, we will return.
Hoyt, Alpharetta, GA	What a great house! Loved the pool and porches and all your wonderful books. We had plenty of storms and red flag days, but we hung out on the porch and watched the rain. The weather cleared in the evenings and we went back for great sunsets.
Miller, Houston, TX	Just as we are really starting to relax, it is time to go! Thank you for sharing your lovely home. It was awesome having a pool right out the back door. We enjoyed using the rosemary and other herbs.
Gnuschke, Memphis, TN	What a darling cottage by the seashore! So restful and pretty and so close to everything! We loved the pool and the "frog family" which greeted us each evening on the front porch as we returned from dinner. Wish this beautiful place was not so far away!! We will remember its beauty and serenity until we return again.
Cortopassi, St. Louis, MO	Great house! Great location! We couldn't have asked for more. We are grateful for our stay at Walton Cottage. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you for your hospitality.
Gibson, Roswell, GA	We had a wonderful time at Walton Cottage! Close enough for convenience (love the new Publix) and far enough from the noise. You have a beautiful place and have thought of everything. The children loved the pool and the adults loved lounging by the pool! Hope to come back soon.
Bordelon, Slidell, LA	My nephew made it back from Afghanistan and he could not wait to come back to Walton Cottage. We brought the whole gang and had another wonderful time. I think most of us are prunes since we swam in the pool every day and went in the water at the beach. I love this home and Seagrove. Thanks for another good time.
Seibert, Maryland Heights, MO	Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful home with us. We waited all year for this vacation and we were not disappointed. The pool was great, it kept the kids busy, which meant the adults could get some well-deserved time-off. Thanks again and we hope to return soon.
McMullen, Morton, IL	We had a wonderful week at your beautiful home. We shared a sun-filled vacation with three generations of family. Loved the pool, the beach and the seafood! The internet does not do the home justice, it's very spacious and family-friendly. Our daughter will miss the pool. Thanks again!
Snoby, Douglasville, GA	Third time is a charm! We have been looking for a nice place to come back to year after year. This is our third place and we fell in love with your lovely home. We have already made our reservations for next year. We survived Frances with no problem and hope Ivan leaves this beautiful place the same also.
Knoedler, Norcross, GA	Had a great time in your lovely home! We were pleasantly surprised at how little damage was done by Ivan; at least we were able to collect lots of pretty shells. By Saturday the water was almost back to its pristine emerald color. The weather was perfect all week. We feel like we were lucky to have squeezed in this beautiful week between hurricane Ivan and Jeanne! Thanks again.
Jennings, Camden Point, MO	We have again enjoyed another wonderful visit at the Walton home. Once we finally arrived -- dodging Ivan and missing Jeanne just to the north of us -- we had fun in the pool, canoeing in the ocean and just enjoying the sunshine and wonderful places to dine. We will look forward to our next visit.
Cesar. Woodstock, GA	We had an absolutely wonderful time. It was our third visit and your house is even more beautiful than we could remember. This was definitely the perfect time to come (October). The weather was great!
Schwerzels, Atlanta, GA	We have enjoyed a relaxing week at Walton Cottage. As soon as we came in the front door we were struck by the pure cleanliness of a rental property. Everything from the kitchen equipment to a luxury shower was spotless! To cap off the week we hired Christy Cannon for a massage on the back deck. She set up her table, soft music and her healing touch. Highly recommended!
Peggy & Ross, Roswell, GA	Can't believe we have to go home tomorrow. We have had such a good time. We fell in love with your home. It is so beautiful that we want to move in. Walton Cottage is the perfect place to relax and had everything at our fingertips. It was one of the best vacations we have ever had. Thank you for making us feel special. We haven't left and we're ready to return.
Curtain, Chattanooga, TN	We just spent the most wonderful and memorable honeymoon here at your beautiful cottage. We loved the outdoor speakers and spent every evening listening to romantic music as we danced by the pool. What a wonderful retreat from reality! We hope to come back to celebrate our anniversary.
Bowers, Atlanta, GA	Fantastic home! We had a fabulous time and felt very at home in your wonderful cottage! Exceeded all our expectations.
Bond, Palm Coast, FL	We came to Walton Cottage for a second visit and an early Christmas "get-together". The weather was chilly so we enjoyed the fireplace and making hot chocolate. Our family went to see "A Christmas Carol" in Seaside -- amazing acting. Having such a beautiful cottage to celebrate is the icing on the cake! Merry Christmas.
Anderson, Brentwood, TN	Happy New Year! What a wonderful way to bring in a new year! We have enjoyed your beautiful home and we would love to start a new tradition by coming back next year. It was a little too cool to swim but our teenage girls were able to soak up some sun by the side of the pool and of course our bikes were constantly in use riding back and forth to Seaside, Watercolor and other paths. We have been vacationing down here for 15-years. Usually we have stayed in Seaside but we wanted a little less of a "hectic pace" ... this is the perfect spot. Thank you for providing us with this wonderful memory.
