Weekend getaway

The cottage was easy to locate and easy to access. Everything was very clean. The entire complex is a hidden gem. The beach is just across the street, plenty of places to eat within walking distance. We loved it so much we rebooked before we left.

Our stay was only 2 weeks but we had a nice time

Property was very small but just right for 2 of us. Furniture was beautiful. Refrigerator needs replacing and would recommend all the woodwork be washed, very dusty.

All You Need

Great location and very clean little cottage! Our only complaints were that we didn’t always have hot water (the manger said it was probably due to the staff doing laundry), no tv in the bedroom, and the heated pool was ice cold. But it was an overall nice stay.

Relaxing

Grounds and upkeep of place are very well detailed. Cottage stocked for comfortable stay; provided beach chairs and beach towels. Right across the street from beach, close to Johns Pass, bus trolley for beach runs down Gulf Blvd. and Uber is a convenience. No need for rental car.

Perfect for a little get away. The only complaint we had was not enough toilet paper. No tissues. No dish soap to wash the dishes. We bought them ourselves.
