Baytripper is a beautiful home in a very well maintained and quiet neighborhood. The house is in a great location on the North end between the beach and the bay. The house is very well appointed and was spotless on our arrival. The beds were super comfortable. We enjoyed the infinity pool overlooking the bay. We plan to return as soon as we can!

Great property but the mosquitos were terrible in the bay side neighborhood. We were able to kayake in the bay and with only a short walk, play in the surf in the gulf and dolphin watch.

We loved our stay. The house is a great set up for the 2 couples and a single that stayed. Even had room for a couple of sort term guests. We rent a lot from VRBO, and I have never seen a better stocked kitchen in any of our previous rentals. Lots of good quality pots and pans, dishes, glasses and every kitchen tool you need. The beds were comfortable, the bathrooms great, nice living room setup and the location is excellent. We’ve already booked it for next year.

We have stayed in Ovation many years- Bay Tripper was a new house for us that didn’t disappoint. Well equipped house and furnishings- being OCD I love that everything was labeled for easy use! Property was beautiful- loved all the wildlife in the Bay.

We fully enjoyed our stay at BayTripper! The house was clean and well maintained. The kitchen was very well equipped. It was the perfect size for two adults and four teenagers. The king mattress on the upper level was a bit hard for my liking but my husband liked it. The teenagers each reported comfortable mattresses in the rest of the house. We loved having the bayside amenities and the kayak and fully enjoyed the outdoor deck space.

Great home, great location, exactly as described. The home is well stocked with everything you could possibly need. The views and ocean breeze were amazing. The best part however, were our hosts Donna and Brian, they were tremendously helpful and responsive, each every recommendation they made for our family turned out to be prefect. Trust them, they know what they are doing and they know the area!

Celebrated my parents 50th wedding anniversary and absolutely adored the property, location and region. We have been to Ovation before, but this is the nicest home we have stayed in. Our family cam in form Utah to join us and loved it. The property is clean, new, full of amenities and beach toys and the property manager went above and beyond to communicate with us and ensure that we were having a wonderful time. We will be back for sure. Thank you!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our family has been traveling to CSB for several years now and this was our first trip staying on the bay side. We absolutely loved everything about our 2 week stay at Bay Tripper. The house was beautiful and extremely clean. We were able to enjoy the amazing view, short walk to the bay and beach and the had fun at the pickleball court. The house has everything anyone could need or want. Great location, nicely stocked kitchen (appliances, pots/pans, spices) and other household items (shampoo/conditioner, bath soap, laundry detergent, trash bags, dish soap), plenty of seating inside and on the porch, board games and outdoor games and beach gear in the garage. We rented a golf cart to get my mother in law to and from the beach easily and we all had a lot of fun driving it to the beach. Donna was amazing to work with. She was easily reachable, answering all questions, which made everything easy when arriving. And although we had no issues, I felt I was in good hands if there were any.

10/10

This house for our group of 9 served us well. Lots of room for everyone to sleep and spread out with the porches and seating. Beautiful views and the house very nicely furnished. Loved the extra beach towels, paddle board, and beach chairs. Those came in handy. We love the bayside of Ovation for our boat and the beautiful pool. Not too far from beach either especially with the golf carts we rented. There is construction going on directly in front of house which wasn’t mentioned but it didn’t mess up our stay. Whoever gets downstairs master bedroom needs to know sun comes up in those windows so very bright very early. If you like to sleep in choose any of the other bedrooms. Overall we had a great week at this house and neighborhood. Definitely recommend it!

They did not shop at Homegoods to furnish their house. It was done right.

We love Cape San Blas, and this was our first time staying in the Ovation complex. We won't stay anywhere else anymore! The house is so beautiful, comfortable, roomy, and well-stocked. It has everything you could possibly need for a relaxing vacation. The beach is a quick, easy walk and we loved being close to the bayside pool and piers. It was such an added bonus to have a kayak and paddle board available as well. We absolutely loved it and will be back for sure!
