About this property

Fall in love w/downtown Pensacola! Spacious modern cottage for you and your pup!

When you stay with us, you will find that Auer House (pronounced “our”) is a modern home close to everything you need. It’s cozy, super clean, and has a hardwired workspace. Every room has a closet, smart TV, ceiling fan and overhead lighting. The fenced-in backyard includes Adirondack chairs and fire pit as well as a patio area.

Auer House is less than 1.5 miles from the heart of downtown Pensacola, a four-minute drive, two miles from the newly opened Portside Pickle, 20 minutes from the these most beautiful beaches, and 15 minutes from NAS Pensacola and the famous Blue Angels. Sit on the front porch and catch a glimpse of them as they practice, and hear the roar of the engines! We have restaurants and a brewery within walking distance. Sanders Beach is a quick 7 minute drive away. You'll also find a newly built dog park just across the street adjacent to a park for everyone else! (We do have a $65 pet fee for their stay.) Each bedroom has its own closet, blackout shades, and memory foam mattresses for a great night's sleep. We have a kitchen stocked fully with all the tools you need to fix a quick breakfast or gourmet meal! A separate living space offers a workspace and comfy sectional to watch TV. Beach towels will be provided upon request. Please give me two-day’s notice. And, of course, we offer contactless check-in with our front door doorbell camera and keypad!

Auer House is available for short-term or longer-term rentals. And we love our military! My dad was a Navy veteran, so please ask me about our military discount. It’s the least we can do! Pensacola was just ranked 31st in U.S. News & World's Reports "Best Cities" list and 1st in Yahoo Finance's 5 Best Florida Cities To Retire! Come see why!

Wonderful

Wonderful place to stay, not to far from the beach. House is what the pictures state and is very clean. Well taking care of! Property owner is wonderful to work with, we had a long drive and got in town earlier than planned. The owner allowed us to check a little early and worked with us. Wonderful service, well recommend place. 10/10. Will be booking again.

Auer House Pensacola

What a great find for our Pensacola vacation! We were not disappointed! Every aspect of this house was true to the photos and description. Susan Nitterauer is the perfect host and responded to inquiries promptly! We wholeheartedly recommend staying at this location. The dog fee was a whole lot more reasonable than places near the beach. We will definitely stay here when we vacation in Pensacola again. Hurricane Helene sent us home 2 days earlier than we anticipated which was disappointing. Thank you, Susan for a wonderful 2 days at Auer House.

Auer House was super clean and comfortable. Susan was a great communicator and answered any questions instantly. The house had everything we needed for the week we were here for a wedding of a close family friend. Beds, pillows, couch and kitchen were all very comfortable and Susan thinks of every detail. Highly recommend this house!!

We came for our Grandson's Wedding, there were 4 adults and 2 small dogs. The house was super clean and it was everything we could ask for. The back yard had a very secure fence for our dogs and there was a nice dog park across the street. The location was close to restaurants and beaches. Susan, our host, was great. She returned all of our communications promptly. When we're in the area again we will definitely stay here.

Everything was great as far as the check in, cleanliness of the house, well equipped and checkout process. Susan was easy to get in touch with and very nice. When we first got there, it didn’t look like a very good neighborhood but we didn’t have any problems with anybody. If I needed a place to stay in that area again, I would rent it again.

Where do I start! My stay with my husband and 4 children was absolutely amazing! From the beginning of our stay the owner reached out and made sure the lines of communication stayed open! The pictures definitely aligned with the property! It was very clean and spacious for a party of 6 and it included everything you could need in a home away from home. It rained most of our 3 day stay however this home was so peaceful and relaxing that we didn’t mind being inside. 10/10 would absolutely recommend!

About the host

Hosted by Susan Nitterauer

Host profile image
As a former inn manager, I'm accustomed to taking care of my guests. And it's my pleasure! That means you'll have everything you need to be comfortable including extra blankets and pillows, throws, and towels. Cleanliness is of utmost importance to me. I want my guests to know that everything has been cleaned and sanitized for your safety and comfort. If remote work is important, we have a hardwired workstation, and the Wi-Fi is fast at 422 Mbps.

Why they chose this property

My dad used to work downtown, and that was when Pensacola was a sleepy little place. I loved it then, and I enjoy the heck out of it now. It has grown up so much and so quickly! When my husband and I saw this home being built a few years ago, it was instant love. The location is great, it's quiet, and the design is perfect no matter how long you stay! Pensacola is the home of Naval Aviation, and our Blue Angels call NAS Pensacola home. Some afternoons from the front porch, you might see them practicing their stunts! And we're centrally located to many restaurants and bars that are walkable!

What makes this property unique

Within a five-minute car drive, you can be at the famous Joe Patti’s to pick up your favorite fresh seafood, Everman’s, a health-oriented grocery store with most anything you could need, and Wahoo Stadium to catch a Miami-affiliated AA baseball game. And if you love baseball as much as we do, hit me up! We have great seats we're happy to share! It's a gorgeous setting! Banks, restaurants, art galleries, breweries, and quaint shops are also downtown.
