    This small bay front cottage had everything we needed to make our stay comfortable and fun. The kids were a bit disappointed that the beach is a low tide sliver of sand but managed to find a lot to do when we weren’t out and about in the community. My only suggestions for improvement is the outside lighting. I really thought a light at the bottom of the stairs would make coming up and down after dark safer. You can’t see the bottom step due to the way it’s set going into the underside of the house when it isn’t full daylight outside.

    The house’s location was amazing! The view was fantastic and the tranquility was exceptional. There was a lot of space, size of rooms was perfect, too. And the porch made our day.

    My favorite was sitting on the porch! We all enjoyed the screened in porch with the swing and rocking chairs! It was beautiful out there. I love Old homes, and the high ceilings with original details was very nice. It is not a new home, so if you are looking perfection with all the new things, I wouldn't recommend this home. BUT, if you want to escape to the past with Old Floridian charm, this is the home for you! Bring your fishing pole and fresh shrimp... you will be sure to catch some fish!

    The property was beautiful and we loved that it didn't feel like a busy tourist place. It felt more like a small town with more locals than tourists. The home was a perfect size for our group of 7 and we loved the screened in porch. When we asked the host if we were supposed to provide our own toilet paper, however, we were told it was not an unlimited supply. This was on the first full day of our stay. We reminded the host that there were 7 of us staying for 4 nights and there was not extra toilet paper in both bathrooms as stated, we were told there was no need for us to get nasty. We couldn't find anything to do dishes with as well. The host did bring more toilet paper and disposable cloths for dishes, but we have never been treated like that by a host before and will not return to this property because of the poor customer service.

    The place was just as advertised. It was easy to find. it was right on the water with a small water access for fishing or launching a kayak. There were plenty of good restaurants in the area.

    We enjoyed a quiet relaxing few days overlooking the water from the screened porch! The home was clean, well-equipped and very comfortable- with the exception of one bed which had a rather lumpy mattress. We will definitely look forward to a return visit!

    An old fashion cottage with a nice screened porch to watch the tide. We also watched an otter catch a fish and watched the moon rise over the bay. It's a very simple accomodation but it has everything you need, very clean. Feels like old Florida.

    We birded the area for five full days, ate out and never turned the stove on. Good trip.

    I was in town for a work event and could not have picked a more perfect place to stay. The cottage was easy to find, clean, well stocked and the view out the back porch was amazing. 10/10 would stay again!

    My husband and I stayed here for 3 nights and enjoyed ourselves. Check out Wakulla Springs State Park, it was a highlight. House is charming and rustic with wonderful screened porch that looks right out onto the bay.
