We have a nice little RV pad on the back of our coastal home. Situated on a little bayou that opens out into Choctawhatchee Bay. Crab Island is only a 10 minute boat ride away. You would have access to our small dock and there is a neighborhood boat ramp less than one hundred feet away. This is a great place for kayaks, wave runners, and small boats. If you don't have a boat, we can set up any kind of trip you want. We are all licensed captains and own multiple Crab Island businesses. So we can set up charters for you on the following boats: Sailing trip on a restored 1963 Pearson Ensign. Can accommodate up to 6 people. This is a classic sailboat that is easy to sail and easy to learn to sail. A restored 1966 Boston Whaler that is perfect for couples looking for a sunset cruise, etc. Can accommodate up to 6 people but it perfect for 2 -4. We can go to Crab Island, look for dolphins or find our own private island beach. Waverunner tours. We can take you on a guided wave runner tour looking for dolphins and private beaches. You will drive one wave runner while our licensed captain guided you on another one. Insurance does not allow us to rent these out solo but there are many good vendors in the area to do that. Inshore flats skiff targeting redfish and trout on light spinning gear and fly rods. This boat is best fished with no more than 3 people. Rates: $150 per hour for less than 3 hours $500 for half day (4 hours) $600 for 6 hours The neighborhood is one of the oldest neighborhoods in Fort Walton with large oaks and magnolias providing plenty of shade for bike riding and walking. Downtown Fort Walton with its shops and quaint restaurants is only a mile away. Didn't bring a bike, we have 2 you can use. The site comes with water/sewer and 30 Amp hookup. The sight can accommodate up to 43' for trailer and vehicle.We have a nice little RV pad on the back of our coastal home. Situated on a little bayou that opens out into Choctawhatchee Bay.

Had an AMAZING stay!
We can’t say enough wonderful things about Eric and his hospitality. He had the site set up for us with Adirondack chairs, umbrella, fire pit, and a small table when we arrived. His communication with us was great prior to our arrival and all throughout our stay. The spot is very clean and is nicely set up with water, 30 amp, and sewer. Eric took us on a 3-hour boat trip all around the area on his restored pink boat which was the highlight of our trip. We slept with the doors open on our Class B, and felt completely safe in the area which was quiet and peaceful. The dock has been refurbished and is a perfect place to relax and unwind. We loved getting to explore Fort Walton Beach on Eric’s recommendations.

Eric’s spot was perfect for us. Very quiet area and close to everything we needed. Having a view of the water was a plus. Eric was very accommodating and very pleasant to deal with.

Mixed emotions rating because the pictures are deceiving. When I look at the pictures of the dock especially there is a lot of grass, but we were asked not to recreate or allow our dog on the grass near the camper as it is not part of the owners property. The dock was also a large drawing point but it was in disrepair as well so not usable as the ad states. It is a decent fairly level spot to park if you are just looking for that. We did find a lot close by to do, and the owner was very friendly and welcoming, even got us a bundle of fire wood for our arrival.

We stayed on Eric’s property. It was very convenient and easy to find. Great location, right at a boat launch and a short drive from beaches and boardwalk. I would recommend staying there for anyone wanting to stay at that area.

Beautiful spot, great location! Change of plans because of the Hurricane and it turned out to be the highlight of our trip. The dogs couldn’t be happier to swim with us in front of our spot. Eric helped us parked and was a great host. We also booked a charter to Crab Island with him and it was totally worth it! Thanks Eric for your hospitality, we had a great time & thinking of coming back another time.
