Perfect Cottage

Elsie's Cove was set up wonderfully! Kitchen with amenities, nice place to eat, living space with a TV/games, nice bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, all clean and tidy. The beach accesses were close by, it was near restaurants and shopping, and nicely located for the activities that we wanted to do. We didn't take advantage of it, but the pool looked inviting too.

Great vacation

Enjoyed this cottage. Convenient location with beach access right beside the Tom Thumb. Unit was clean, and it had all the basics. Comfortable bed. Quiet location. Good for riding bikes or walking. Small fenced in backyard was helpful for traveling with a pet.

Modest Beach House

Property was great for a family with children or couples. Convenient location near a beach access. Only negative would be the surrounding geography. A run down storage area has to be passed each day. Also the yard could be a bit more useful with better landscaping. Especially in the back yard. Otherwise a delightful rent.

Wonderful Stay!

We thoroughly enjoyed our time at Elsie's Cove. The place was just perfect for our family of four. The open-concept kitchen/dining room/family room suited us for meals/game nights and movie nights. The location is a quick and easy 3-minute bike ride to the beach or about a 10-minute walk. Having bikes delivered to our doorstep (awaiting our arrival) was incredibly convenient. The pool was just a few steps from our door, and despite its close proximity, we didn't hear when kids were splashing around in it. So, that was a big plus. I will say, however, that the pool is small, and probably better suited for younger kids (under 10). This would not impact my decision to return as we were there for the beach anyway! It was also very convenient to have our own driveway/parking spot and a stand-alone rental property. This little community of approximately 20 (?) bungalows would be perfect for multiple families who wish to vacation together, while still maintaining some privacy. In addition, the communication with Emerald Coast Vacation Rentals was very easy and Justin was quick to respond to any questions we had. All in all, a wonderful place, location, and value.

Bungalow at Seagrove

Perfect walk to the beach. We didn't cook but the kitchen seemed well-equipped. The pillows need to be replaced. Overall, the bungalow was very attractive and a perfect place to relax.

Great location

This place was well worth the cost for our family. The only suggestions would be to be a little more clear in the emails about stuff the house does not have. Things like dish soap and sponges. Also, a way to lock the door from the inside would be great for those of us with young kids. Tip: you'll want to do your grocery shopping before you get to town. Publix was really expensive. Otherwise, the location is great, the house had plenty room for our family of four and we had a great time.

A lovely little bungalow

Easy drive or bike ride to Seaside. Easy walk to beach. House was set-up well, clean, and attractively remodeled. We will definitely stay here again. Had a little issue with the keyless system but the management company took care of it remotely and immediately. Thank you for a fabulous stay.

I'll be back soon! Neighborhood of your dreams!

I LOVED our stay! Everything was obviously brand new. The pool (October booking) was essentially a private pool. The California King bed in the master is beyond comfortable. We loved the included beach rentals and bikes. The home is in the perfect location. You can bike to Seaside or Rosemary Beach. Short drive to PCB (15 minutes).
