About the host
Hosted by Jessica Ringelsten

Born on the East Coast and raised in the suburbs of Chicago, where I still reside with my husband, daughter, our three dogs and a spicy little cat.
I also have two "big kids". One is a Junior at Marquette University in Milwaukee and one a Sophomore at Illinois State University.
We enjoy spending time at our beach cottage when we can, and love being able to share it with others! When we can't be at the beach, you can catch us at a record shop, at a concert, cooking meals for family and friends or reading a great book.
I love interacting with my guests, and ensuring that everything is top notch for their stay. I am always reachable - day or night!

Why they chose this property
My family has been vacationing in the Destin area since the 1980's, when my grandparents would come down as "snowbirds" from Vermont. This beach holds a special place in my heart, and as I continue the family tradition, I will take pride in making sure that each and every guest returns year after year to enjoy all that the Emerald Coast has to offer! We LOVE Destin! :)
What makes this property unique
If you ask my guests, I would say that the answer would be that we provide all the comforts of home. We don't want you to worry about whether or not you remembered paper plates, or ziplock baggies. Bringing home doggie bags from a great meal? We have you covered with plenty of storage containers. Forgot your sunscreen? We have that, too! Need to throw in a load of laundry? We'll be sure to stock the detergent. You name it, we've thought of it. And we wouldn't have it any other way! This is your home while you're here!
