Spending time on the Gulf Coast during the fall season is an experience that will go unmatched! Not only can you enjoy the beachy weather while staying in one of our vacation rentals but also take part in culinary traditions such as the Harvest Wine and Food Festival.

Silent Auction
It wouldn’t be a DCWAF event without the opportunity to bid high and bid often. A silent auction featuring a variety of rare wines, staycations, and unique experiences will open Friday, October 26 at 9:00 a.m. and will run through Sunday, October 28 at noon. The silent auction will be hosted on the Give Smart mobile bidding platform. Give Smart attendants will be on site throughout the festival for registration.
Supporting Those Affected by Hurricane Michael
As many of our neighbors to the east have a long journey ahead on the road to recovery, Destin Charity Wine Auction Foundation will be hosting a virtual paddle raise during the festival to raise funds in support of those affected by Hurricane Michael. The paddle raise is live now on their mobile bidding website, and you do not have to be a ticket holder to donate or bid on the other items available.
