NOT SO HUMBLE BRAG-->-->-->
We are happy to answer all of your questions and look forward to your inquiry. You may find though that we are a little biased when it comes to bragging about our home and its location. For a real taste of what it's like to stay at Burning Daylight, enter key search terms under our reviews for common answers to your questions. "Walk to the beach" "Cleanliness" "location" "amenities". We're happy to have our guests do the bragging for us.

TRUE BY OWNER RENTAL-This is a family owned and operated home. Our goal is to provide a five-star experience. We want to operate the kind of rental we would like to find on our vacation. We hope you enjoy our home as much as we do.

Burning Daylight is a custom home set on a rare coastal dune lake looking out to the Gulf of Mexico. We have provided the perfect spot to relax and enjoy family time while having easy access to all that 30A has to offer. Hop on a kayak or stand-up-paddle board provided for your use, and explore the lake and surrounding areas.

Boasting a unique triple master and Bunk Room design, a stay at Burning Daylight ensures private luxury baths for all and dedicated adult, kid and family spaces.

Each master includes a private bath and sweeping lake views to watch the sunrise and sunset. Each room is also equipped with blinds, flat screen TVs and wifi, in case sunrises and sunsets aren't your thing.

In the largest of the three master bedrooms, the downstairs master bathroom boasts a natural Carrera marble double vanity and walk-in glass shower with natural light.

The two upper master bedrooms flank the upstairs living area, offering a second gathering spot for groups of kids or adults.

The Bunk Room sleeps five with custom built-in luxury bunks which include personal reading lights, a charging station and private storage for each occupant. The wall-mounted flat screen ensures all Bunk Room occupants have a perfect view, although sleep will overcome the most avid young television watcher after a day on the pristine Gulf Coast beaches.

The Bunk Room bathroom has a private WC, two showers with private changing areas and a triple-faucet trough sink, offering the perfect blend of private and shared spaces for young guests.

Burning Daylight's gourmet kitchen is outfitted with two full-size refrigerators, two quiet dishwashers and a top of the line four-burner gas stove. Coffee and cocktail stations are located in the butler's pantry, ensuring adequate space for the most avid cooks and those preparing and consuming cocktails. Carrera marble tops the center island, large enough for your whole group to gather around. The kitchen is fully stocked with a wide range of appliances and dinnerware for your group and any visitors. Seated meals for thirteen enjoy lake views and breezes.

The screened-in side porch offers a covered outdoor living and dining space large enough for al fresco dining, entertaining or gaming.

The beach is a short walk, less than 5 minutes on foot with PUBLIC BEACH ACCESS at the outfall. Or, launch in one of the included water conveyances from the dock and paddle to the outfall where the ocean and lake meet. Kids can swim in the protected pool at the intersection of ocean and lake water.

Burning Daylight guests can rinse off after a day at the beach in the private outdoor shower and drop towels and bathing suits off in the sand room to take advantage of the full size washer and dryer. Enjoy a game of ping pong in the garage while your bathing suit is on the spin cycle.

Burning Daylight sits on Eastern Lake, one of the 14 rare dune lakes that dot the 30A landscape. Easily explore all of 30A from our central location, Grayton beach and the resort communities of Alys Beach, Rosemary Beach and Seaside are all an easy bike ride or short car ride away. Burn daylight enjoying the shopping and amenities each of these communities have to offer and then return to Burning Daylight's outdoor deck, where there's room for your whole group to watch
the remaining daylight burn over the lake and the Gulf Coast simultaneously.

Great Family Getaway
The house was perfect, lots of space for a family to enjoy. Kitchen is extremely well equipped. Paddling on the lake was fun. It was great to be able to get up every morning and take a walk on the beach.

Eastern Lake 30A Getaway
An excellent spot for an extended family vacation. Kitchen was comfortable and well stocked for cooking and entertaining a big family. We had 3 couples and 3 young adults... and another family stopped by just for dinner-plenty of room! View of the lake and proximity to the beach gives you a quiet retreat from the beach when you're ready for it. The short 5 minute walk to the beach was always pleasant—I'd recommend a golf cart rental for shuttling beach chairs and older folks.

Another Amazing Stay!
We absolutely love this VRBO home! As repeat guests, each visit reaffirms why we keep coming back. We've been traveling to 30A for many years, and this is by far our favorite stay. The house is impeccably maintained, cozy yet spacious, and fully stocked with everything you'll need and more! The amenities are top-notch, from the well-equipped kitchen (again, EVERY gadget and state-of-the-art appliances) to the comfortable beds. The views of Eastern Lake from just about every room are so special, and tons of water toys available for added water fun. We enjoyed fishing, kayaking, and paddle boarding daily. The location gives you the best of both worlds - lake front and beach views, with a short kayak or SUP trip or walk to the ocean. You won't find a better host in Andra. She's incredibly accommodating and friendly, ensuring every stay is seamless and feels like home. We simply can't say enough great things about Burning Daylight. We look forward to another visit soon. Highly recommend for anyone seeking the perfect getaway!

It’s the little things…
The little things make such a big difference! Host provided oranges for fresh squeezed orange juice, s’mores ingredients for nights around the fire pit, ground coffee/Kcups to get the morning going, and enough trash bags and soap for our big family! Thank a million for making our stay stress-free! The views of the dune lake were beautiful but the house was built and decorated just as beautifully! Kids loved having kayaks to paddle and the grown ups loved the all amenities as well!

Fantastic spot on 30A
House was a great setup for a family. It is on Eastern Lake with a view of the gulf. First morning we were there a large blue heron was hanging out on the dock. Great start to the day. House had all of the water toys you could ask for. Very short walk to the beach. Great location on getting around 30A (once the bridge is fixed). Host had a s’mores kit ready for the kids which was a really nice touch. Would definitely consider staying again.

Great family getaway
This was the perfect spot to enjoy a family vacation. My kids loved fishing off the dock, and paddle boarding to the beach. I loved the walks to the coffee shop and the view. The owner is amazing when it comes to communication and friendliness. I was also grateful for all the added toys etc since we had to travel quite a distance and could not bring our own. Thank you for providing wonderful memories!

Absolutely awesome vacation spot
I celebrated my 70th birthday at this property with my family. The house is so beautiful and spacious and is on a beautiful lake just a few minutes walk or paddle board/kayak trip to the beach on the Gulf of Mexico. The view of Eastern Lake is gorgeous, and there’s a dock from which you can fish or swim. My family and I already plan to return to this awesome vacation spot!

30A Getaway
This is my dream home. It was nice to escape the bustling 9-5 and our busy schedule outside of work. Everything was perfect, with the best host working with us to ensure we had a comfortable stay. If you’ve ever experienced the sublime, you will when you visit Burning Daylight. I was in awe of the serene backyard leading to the pier, watched the cranes, and enjoyed taking it all in. We also decided to rent a golf cart, and to our surprise, the gulf was a two-minute scoot from the house. Now that is something you want to experience in 30A. The people, atmosphere, and food (def recommend The Old Florida Fish House) are where to be. I cannot wait to retake my family every year.

Hidden gem
This is what we have been searching for the last 10 years. Even though the weather was not great having the sup boards and kayaks available for us was just what we needed. We rented bikes so we either bikes or took one of the water toys to the beach. Loved all the space and VERY well appointed. No need to bring anything from home other than clothes. Andrea was just so easy to work with and very easy to reach. Asked if we needed anything to make our stay better. We will be back.

Beautiful spot on the lake near the inlet to gulf
This property was just awesome! My family and two others joined us for a week here and we have nothing negative to say. We had 6 adults and 5 kids and felt the space was perfect. The bunk room and kids bathroom was great! We especially liked the extra sitting room upstairs for the kids to play. Massive Lego collection!! Being on the lake was beautiful for sunsets, fishing and evening drinks. With the close proximity to the beach, we could paddle on the many paddle boards and kayaks available too. Beautiful decor and well stocked with all the necessities. Our families plan to book again here! Thank you for a lovely week in 30A!
