About this property
Coastal Cottage with Amazing Gulf Views!
Looking for a place to relax and truly get away from it all?  Welcome to Wakulla Beach!  Located 3 miles down a dirt road, this coastal cottage is tucked deep inside the St. Mark's National Wildlife Refuge.  The surrounding wilderness ensures clear skies, dark nights, and peaceful solitude.  
Unobstructed views of the Gulf allows for quiet relaxation on the large screened porch. French doors in the living room and bedrooms ensure that all rooms enjoy the view of the bay. If star gazing and a good book sounds like an ideal quiet night, you will be right at home!
Our cottage is almost 100 years old and it is tiny! We have a clawfoot tub with a hand-held shower attachment. We have central AC/heat and ceiling fans in the bedrooms. We do not have a dishwasher or cable TV. We do have a TV antenna, which gives great access to basic channels. We also have satellite internet (Starlink) that can be used on our smart tv with your favorite apps.
Our house is the epitome of the real Florida. It's quaint and rustic, with a great view! We are surrounded by the St. Marks wildlife refuge, which has 83,000 acres of conservation land. This means there's a host of animals nearby, but we're also a bit off the grid. Cell service can be spotty, there's no cable access, and we're on well water, which in our area is salty. We do provide purified drinking water for our guests.
Wakulla Beach is a short 5-10 minute walk away.
Strictly a non-smoking property.
NOTE - Our home employs a Nest doorbell for security.
