The only bad thing I have to say is the dogs next door were annoying barking loud if we went outside or in the mornings when we woke up. The cottage itself was very clean, easy to access from main roads, my children and I absolutely loved the stay. The host was very fast at communicating. Beach access was a little tricky, you have to have a free pass from Eglin AFB. Overall we enjoyed our stay for our first time in Florida!
