About this property

Happy Ours! 30A Cottage - Pool, Beach Access

Should Happy Hour really be limited to 1 hour? Here at Happy Ours, there’s no doubt you will amp up the happiness for your entire vacation. Unwind and reconnect with those you love in this charming 3-bedroom cottage along Scenic 30A in South Walton!

An open and inviting floor plan sets the perfect tone for a family fun-filled beach vacation in Northwest Florida. The comfortable furnishings in the living area paired with a large TV will be the family’s favorite spot in the evenings after a long day on the beach. Cool coastal hues of blue and ivory strike the perfect beach vibe throughout, with delightful nautical accessories. Step out onto the large covered back deck and enjoy chilled sunset cocktails poolside. Cheers!

The spacious and well-equipped kitchen boasts an island with barstool seating for 3 and plenty of counter space. Meal prep will be a happy time with so many comforts of home included in this heart of the cottage. Enjoy a standard drip and a Keurig coffee maker along with stainless appliances, dinnerware, cookware, and handy gadgets.

Happy Ours features 3 bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms, perfect for your family. The queen primary bedroom includes private access through French doors to the back patio, perfect for a morning cup of coffee or late-night stargazing. Enjoy a large flatscreen TV, closet, and private bath with a single vanity and large shower in this tranquil space.

The guest room features a queen bed and TV and shares the hall bath with the secondary guest room with two single beds which is ideal for the children in your family. 

Happy Ours will continue to be a family favorite destination with the sparkling crystal-clear community pool just steps from your back door along with the hot tub on the pool deck, sure to make your happy hour even happier. 

Deeded beach access is a short walk from Happy Ours, and the glistening sugar-white sand of the Emerald Coast will certainly put a smile on your face and a squeak in your walk. Yes, the pure white sand actually squeaks! Long ago, quartz rock from the Appalachian Mountain range made its way down to these beaches. And along the way, the waters polished the quartz into ultra-fine bits of sand. The very smooth quartz squeaks with foot traffic. So, what are you waiting for? You have so many Happy Ours to experience!

Scenic Hwy 30A in South Walton has become a favorite family vacation destination due to a large number of outdoor activities, laid-back atmosphere, great dining, and shopping venues, quaint seaside neighborhoods, and of course our spectacular beaches. Rosemary Beach, Alys Beach, Seaside, and a host of other hot spots are all just minutes from your front door.

Great property!

Cute and very clean! Quick bike or car ride to the Rosemary beach shops/eating area. Easy walk to the beach. The pool never felt busy and having it right off our patio was really nice. We really enjoyed our stay

Quiet and clean

Located between Destin and pcb but closer to pcb. Very quiet. Beach is a bit of a walk, about 10 minutes. Private access doesnt have any hose etc to rinse off, and the steps are steep so taking the cart isn't super easy. But house is nice and pool is nice also. The decor is Wayfair gone wild lol.

Beach get together

We stayed with our daughter and family, while another daughter and family stayed at a different cottage 2 doors down. Perfectly situated a short walk to beach and just feet from the pool, the cottage was very family friendly. We also appreciated the well stocked kitchen and overall cleanliness. Definitely recommend and hope to rent again!

End of Summer Vacation

The property was perfect and the location was great. It was almost half way between Rosemary and the Hub. It was a short walk to the beach and right beside the pool. I would definitely stay in this neighborhood again and hopefully at this unit again.

Perfect house and a perfect stay

Happy Ours lived up to all the other positive reviews. The house and community were lovely. The bikes came in handy and it was an easy ride to Seacrest and Rosemary. We didn’t want to leave.

Everything we needed

Great little community and very close to the pool while still maintaining some privacy. Bikes, beach toys, coffee and good WiFi are all included and made our stay very relaxing, even when hurricane Sally passed by us. The host was very responsive and made sure we had everything we needed the entire stay. I’d recommend Happy Ours to families and people looking to be close to the action, but far enough away to relax.

Perfect for our family.

This cottage is great for kids. It's close to the pool, has lots toys, games, movies, and bikes plus Ms. Pac Man! We found it to be very comfortable and clean. It's a short walk to a very nice beach. We had a small problem with the unit during our stay and Erica was quick to take care of it for us. We would definitely stay there again.

Great Spring Break for our Family!

Our stay was great. The private beach access is very close and not crowded. The house was a perfect size for our family with small children. One of our kids left a stuffed animal when we left and the property owner was extremely nice to ship it back to us. We have a little boy who is excited to come back after his doggy had an extended stay :)

Great community away from the bustle

Erica was very accommodating and helped us make a last minute reservation. The space was perfect for our family of five and Havense pup. Our girls enjoyed the arcade as well! We will gladly return to the cottages in the future. The location was ideal and away from the crowds but close enough to enjoy a Rosemary beach and Seacrest.

Happy Ours....was just that!

It was a quaint 3 bedroom cottage. The pool off the back porch was great! Close to the beach. Nice quiet area. We took a morning bike ride and seen some of the surrounding area houses. Nice that the bikes were provided. Thanks for opening your "Happy Ours" to us for a ladies retreat! Nice stay!

Great little cottage!

We rented Happy Ours for a week during our kids' Spring Break. it was great for grandparents, parents, and kids. Perfect space for 6 people, super convenient to the awesome pool, and a good walk to the beach. House was nice and clean and reasonably well equipped for a rental. Having things like a beach stroller, beach gear, and a pack 'n play there already was a huge bonus and made for a great experience. We'd happily come back.

Excellent for family - close to beach

This is a really cute little community. The house was perfect for our family of five. Easy walk to the beach (or bike). There is a crosswalk right there so getting across 30a wasn’t an issue. The house is well equipped in the kitchen, decorated so nice and had the best porch. There was a problem with the AC when we got there and Judy made sure it was taken care of without any issue. We would stay there again for sure.

Cozy cottage!

We traveled with 4 teenagers and enjoyed this cottage very much! Easy walk to the beach and the pool is right at the back porch. The cottage is very nice with everything you need. The only negative takeaway was the bed in the master bedroom. It creaked with the slightest movement and was slightly caved in the middle. But that aside, this was an amazing place to stay!! We loved it!

Family Vacation

Really good experience for mine and my sisters families. Great community and pool. Only negative is that I would not consider the pull out as a sleeping bed. Quite uncomfortable, thankfully we always bring a blowup mattress as a backup so we were fine. Owner was very quick to respond with any questions we had. I would recommend highly to anyone who

Great place for families!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We really enjoyed our stay at Happy Ours! Having the pool right outside your door was wonderful for napping little ones. The house was clean and well stocked. Make sure to bring your own beach towels and any food necessities as there was nothing in the fridge or pantry upon arrival. A small walk to the beach. There was a beach cart but we did not use it because it looked pretty rusted out and we didn’t want to get half way there and it break. Many restaurants within a 5 minute drive but nothing walkable at least with little ones. Overall a fantastic trip!
