BEACH ACCESS:

Ed Walline Park is right in the heart of Santa Rosa Beach at Gulf Place where County Road 393 converges with Scenic 30A. This beach access has restroom facilities and two picnic pavilions that sit atop a dune overlooking the gorgeous gulf. In spite of its dune top location, there are ramps that meander down to the beautiful beach below so it is handicapped accessible as well. There is also a unique one-story Observation Desk for viewing the gulf beyond and it is a popular place to spot surfers and frolicking dolphins in the distance. Life Guards are on duty at the Ed Walline Beach Access during the summer season.

    This is our third year coming to Santa Rosa beach and staying at Turtle shell cottage. The house is maintained, equipped and has a great location. Not only the beach is a 5 minute walk, there are also restaurants, gift stores and convenient stores as well. I love to walk to and from the beach everyday! Having the golf cart is a huge plus, makes it so easy because everyone can move around in a fun and relaxed way . I-trip quickly responds to any inquiry or request, so even when things are not as expected they do their best to get it resolved as soon as possible. My family leaves every year already planning next year’s vacation. See you next summer!

    Our family had a great week in Turtle Shell Cottage. There was plenty of space for all 8 of us. We loved the convenience of the golf cart. We spent a lot of time on the porch swing relaxing!

    Loved everything about this spot! Very functional for our visit. Things Id change… No spices in the cabinets for cooking forcing us to eat out a tonNo ceiling fans in bedrooms - had to keep the AC super cold for it to be comfortable for sleepingNot deal breakers, minor concerns. Would definitely stay here again. LOVED the golf cart. Had no idea it would be so fun to have that as a part of the experience

    We have been going to Santa Rosa beach for the past 7 years, stayed in a few places, but this house became one of my favorites. Clean, comfortable and in a great location. The golf cart was a huge part of the fun and success of our trip. The second day we weren’t able to start the golf cart, so it was a hassle because we had my senior parents and a one year old baby that needed to be able to go back and forth, and parking lot is very limited at the beach. So I contacted the office and even though they weren’t able to resolve the problem, they responded immediately. Thank goodness my son was able to figure out what needed to be done to start the cart after they towed it back to the house. For any future guess, there is a bottom (red light) under the key hole that you need to push to start the golf cart if it doesn’t start once you unplug it. We never understood why, and we asked our neighbors if they needed to do this and they said no, but just in case because we are still waiting for the technician or mechanic to come tell us what to do…Lol! Despite this incident, we highly recommend this property and will be coming back next year, God willing!

    Best beach rental I’ve ever used. Golf cart is perfect for getting around and still the beach is close enough. Pristine house, tons of room for even more than 12. Super nice neighborhood.

    This place was perfect for our two families, (ten people total)Located within walking distance of many good things, including the beach, and well equipped for making your own meals! The only reason I did not give it four stars was because the golf cart broke down halfway through and they weren’t able to do much about it. But things happen, and we would absolutely stay again.
