About this house rental
Bedroom: 5 | Bathroom: 5 | Sleeps 14
Welcome to Beach Bear & Beach Cub - a bright, comfortable combo unit (main & guest house)for families, friends, and larger groups. Previously known as Life's a Peach & Made in the Shade, these homes are very popular with guests - many of whom request them year after year.
It's the perfect pair, shaded beneath the tallest trees in Beachwalk Resort. Gather your group of all ages and hang out on the wrap-around porch, watching the shooting fountain in Waterfall Park. A wooden walkway connects both houses, with a private shaded deck between them for lounging and watching the little ones. Both homes are great for those who need to avoid stairs, with main bedrooms on the first floors.

Both the main and the guest house feature an open floor plan with vaulted ceilings with high windows for a delightful space filled with rays of sunshine.

Gather your gang around the large, round table in the dining area for a holiday meal or game night. Later, chill-out in the cozy living room with its two plush sofas and enjoy the warmth of the gas fireplace and the high-definition smart TV. Rain or shine, day or night, the spacious screened-in, covered patio with its own TV lets you enjoy the outdoors—indoors, for cocktails with friends or relaxing with your favorite music and a good book.

Reviewer Comments:
We gathered family members from 4 states for 4 night, 5 day vacation for our grandson’s 1st birthday and our son in law’s birthday. It was terrific. We thought just about everything was perfect. Kym in the office could not have been nicer or more helpful. Having a golf cart to use was fabulous. It allowed us to get to the Lake and pool with all our blankets, chairs and beach equipment. The only suggestion we have, is that we think wristbands should be included with the rental fee. It really was an ideal situation because everything was all right there. We parked our cars, and did not need to use them. The property was very clean. We had a few maintenance issues that were addressed immediately. We certainly would consider returning.

This rental was absolutely perfect for our family of 14 with 6 adults and 8 kids! The houses were clean and had everything we needed! The golf cart was a definite plus! Beachwalk Resort is a wonderful place to spend quality time with your family. The resort amenities, bike rentals, multiple fishing places, and location to the beach are perfect. We have already looked into booking for next summer.
6 / 10Average·May 2026
The outdoor areas were not kept up. The screened in porch was dirty and looked as if it hadn’t been cleaned in awhile. There was an upper kitchen cabinet door that was broken off its hinges, toilet paper holder in the lower bathroom looked like it was ripped out of the wall. The house needs some attention
