Lovely stay and perfect beach access

We brought our family of four as well as our two dogs. This place was perfect. We had a few questions before the trip, and Martha was quick to get back to us every time. The screened-in porch is key. There weren't a ton of bugs at our time of year, but it would be perfect at a more buggy time which would make us rent again!.Having an outdoor shower was perfect for getting the sand off the dogs and us. The house was just enough space for all of us with a great cross breeze at night. We loved that the beach access was just across the street and wasn't "Spring Break" crazy busy. The dogs had room to run, and we could be back and forth easily. We really loved this place!

A little piece of paradise

This vintage beach house was very clean, had everything you need, cozy and so close to the beach. The porch was everything, you have a beautiful view of the gulf and can hear the waves crashing! Mrs. Martha is such a doll and was available anytime! My husband, our furbabies and I will definitely be booking again!!

Perfect little getaway

We loved our time at Pott’s Spot. The outside was a little dated, but that didn’t matter to us! The inside was a little updated with everything to meet your needs minus a dishwasher, which is of course in the listing. We loved the A frame screened in porch, outdoor shower, and closet full of beach stuff the most. It was a quick walk/golf cart ride to the public beach access just a couple houses down and across.

Great view, cozy, short walk to the beach

Home was clean with plenty of room. The screened deck was a great place to hangout with a great view. There was plenty of dishes for cooking if you plan on cooking there. There are plenty of items to take to the beach already there. The outdoor shower is great after being at the beach all day for a quick cool off and to remove all the sand! The walk to the beach is very reasonable.

Perfect spot

We traveled with our 18 month old and senior pup , this location was perfect, easy for both to walk and nit too far for mom and dad to carry everything back and forth to the beach. They also had a great wagon and toys too. The kitchen was well stocked. The pans and utensils etc were better than ive ever experienced with vacation rentals. Grill was so clean!!! Martha was very quick to resond. Previous renters or cleaners left some dog hair inside and cigarette butts outside, but those are hard to spot. Only reccomendation, bring a fan for the back porch if in the warmer months, the fan back there helps but not enough to really utilize that space (which had a beautiful view- youll want to be out there).

Just right

One house over and across the road, just as described, and you're at the boardwalk and on the beach. The screened in patio is what sold us on Pott's Spot as we're more than familiar with the mosquitoes of the south. You have a wonderful view of the ocean and they have all the beach supplies you could need down in the laundry room (which took me a while to figure out, but is unlocked by the house key you're provided-- the separate lock box on the laundry room door was confusing). We enjoyed the privacy of the outdoor shower (as opposed to the open showers we noticed) and the bath towels are soft and fluffy (I'll probably seek out a set for our home). We didn't go further down the road than this place, but it felt like a small quiet road. So, we were surprised by how busy and crowded the beach got. There are two huge condos to the right of this neighborhood, but we were under the impression this section of the beach was private to the neighborhood. Luckily, when the weather wasn't cooperative or we wanted to get away from the crowds, Pott's Spot had some great board games we enjoyed as a family. Yep, we saw plenty of places flashier on the outside and there are probably lots of places fancier on the inside, but this place really grew on me and was just right.

Perfect quiet get-away

Fantastic location and very quiet. The beach is peaceful and very clean, the neighbor has very little traffic and was great for a morning walk. The walking proximity to the beach was an easy trip. We spent all of our time in the house on the front porch, I don’t think we ever turned on the television. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and hope to return soon.

Good time, Great location.

Family trip, 3 kids, 5,10,15. Location was outstanding, property worked well for us. Could use a little updating, but no complaints really. Being pet friendly was a big plus, as we have a small, elderly dog. She enjoyed laying on the deck, and walking on the beach.Kids had a great time, and enjoyed the short walk to the beach. Seemed like 50 yards or so. Weather was hot, but being so close to the beach it was pleasant. Beautiful sunrise which we enjoyed each morning. Would stay again.
