About the host

Hosted by Kalli Quicke

Host profile image
Hi, I’m Kalli — an entrepreneur, real estate investor, and local business owner here on the Emerald Coast. I created Emerald Cottage to give guests a clean, comfortable, and affordable place to stay while visiting Fort Walton Beach. As someone who travels for business and invests in real estate, I know how important it is to have a space that feels reliable, functional, and move-in ready without the high vacation price. This home was intentionally designed for families, military stays, work trips, and beach visitors who want more space than a hotel and better value for their money. Hosting allows me to combine my love for real estate with creating a great guest experience and helping people enjoy this area without overspending.

Why they chose this property

The location is one of the best parts of Emerald Cottage. You’re just minutes from downtown Fort Walton Beach where you’ll find local restaurants, coffee shops, parks, and events, and a short drive over the bridge to the beautiful beaches on Okaloosa Island. It gives you quick access to everything people come here for while still being in a quiet residential area where you can relax at the end of the day. Whether you’re here for the beach, work, military relocation, or visiting family, you’re right in the center of it all.

What makes this property unique

Emerald Cottage stands out because it offers the space of a full three-bedroom home at a price point that makes longer stays and group travel realistic. Instead of paying premium beach rates for a small space, you get room to spread out, a full kitchen, comfortable living areas, and a true home-away-from-home. The focus is on cleanliness, simplicity, and consistency so every guest has a dependable and stress-free stay. It’s designed to be practical, welcoming, and a great value in a location that keeps you close to both downtown and the beach.
