About this property
One Q-ute Cottage : Beach and Bay Retreat w/ Pool
Once you step into the beach cottage, you truly feel a sense of excitement as your vacation is kicking off and you have a beautiful place to stay that feels like home. It is a perfect place to step away from the busy life and slow down and enjoy the simple pleasures of beach life.
The beach cottage truly feels as if you are getting the best of everything the beach can offer - you have the beautiful beach on one side and Little Lagoon on the other, and if those bodies of water are not enough, you are steps away from the relaxing pool overlooking the Lagoon. If your family loves fishing, bring your poles, the dock is the perfect spot for a catch. If
With the cottage being on a low density beach, it is nice to be able to get out and set up on the beach and not feel overcrowded. The beach is a quick 3 minute walk from the unit and is directly across from our community’s entrance. You can be out the front door and toes in the sand before you could in a big condominium building. If you have little ones, you will feel very safe and comforted crossing the road as it is a quiet 2 lane street. Once on the beach, you may catch a glimpse of the Gulf’s marine life as we have seen crabs, stingrays, and dolphins out in the ocean.
If you need a break from the beach, the pool is just steps away. It has a shower if you need to rinse off, or the house has an outdoor shower in the parking area space by the storage closet. The pool has chairs that you can lay out on, and feel free to bring a speaker to enjoy some beach tunes by the pool. The dock entry is right behind the pool and has steps down into the water if you want to take some tubes out there and float (I would suggest having water shoes and be mindful you are sharing the space with marine life).
Upon booking, I will send you a welcome message and then as your vacation date gets closer, I will reach out again with details regarding entry (such as your private secure smart lock code for self check in) and other details pertinent to your stay. My family loves to eat at the beach, so we also have many recommendations that we can provide so you can try some of our favorites. If you need any information on activities or rentals (kayaks or paddle boards can be delivered directly to the cottage!) please feel free to reach out. Our cleaning staff takes enhanced cleaning measures between each stay to protect our guests.
The main floor is on the second story with an over-sized central island, spacious living room and dining room, bunk bed sleeping for two (big enough for adults), and a full bathroom. There is a large smart TV in the living room with cable, but feel free to log into your streaming service (Netflix, Hulu, Disney+). There is also a TV in each bedroom. Two large sets of sliding doors fill the living and dining room with light and views of the Little Lagoon and community pool. A balcony spans the whole front of the cottage and allows amazing views of the bay. Upstairs there are 2 bedrooms with access to a balcony and their own bathrooms. One bedroom has a queen bed and twin bed in it. The primary suite has a King bed. The laundry room with a full size washer and dryer is on this floor as well in the hallway. There is an outdoor storage closet which has 4 beach chairs, and umbrella and some beach toys.

We made a last minute decision to book a condo instead of staying with family that lived close by. The owner was quick to respond and made our check-in/check-out experience a breeze. The place was perfect! Just as described in the listing. We loved having the best of both worlds with the bay and the beach within walking distance. The view of the bay was gorgeous from the balconies. My husband loved fishing off the dock and we enjoyed hanging out with him in the evenings. We cooked one night and the kitchen was very well stocked. The place was very clean and the beds were extra comfortable. We will definitely be returning customers.
This property is excellent! It's cute, clean, and in a great location! We visited during the winter time, so we didn't spend much time at the beach/bay/pool, but the access to all was great. Host was very helpful & great to work with! We would definitely visit again!
The property is in pristine condition. The shower and hose outside is very convenient and there is a good selection of items in storage for use. We enjoyed our stay here!
