** Calling all Families ** Don't waste your money on several motel/hotel rooms with only 2 beds and hopefully adjoining rooms. Our cottage is the right size and most affordable. 2 queen beds, 2 twin beds, a double sleeper sofa and a living room sofa will hold your crew. You can even put a few on the floor. The kitchen is all set for quick meals and cold drinks. Just imagine... beautiful sunny day, kids swimming in the pool, the grill fired up and you...sitting on the patio staring at the view. Family time at it's best. Earlier that day you were pulling the kids on the tube behind the boat and thinking how tired they will be and how soon they will fall asleep. Then it's your turn in the hot tub. With a drink and music, you are all set. You don't have to go anywhere to have fun. You're there!

Don't forget to watch the fish when the sun goes down. They love the underwater lights. And you never know who else might show up. We've seen jellyfish, stingrays, gar, small shark and catfish. Not to mention, mullet jumping around you.

You will be in the perfect area for boating. Fisherman will love this! Restaurants just around the corner for lunch. Crab Island isn't far and the bayou is the right size to play around in and those on the dock can still watch you. Jet ski's are welcome as well.

Small housetrained pets welcome with $50 fee per dog/cat, please limit to 2 max. There is a 3 sided fence (the seawall does not have a fence) for the front and back for your furry friends.

You just can't go wrong with our cottage. We enjoy it over and over again. Can't wait to share it with you.

Cottage on the Bay**Bring Your Boat!** Look Specials :)

Year Purchased: 2007

Why the Owner Chose Fort Walton Beach

We love being on the water. When this cottage became available, we jumped on it. We needed a place to stay while working in the area, and a place to keep our boat. We love being able to jump on it and head out for a cruise. Being in Destin is one thing, being on the water in Destin is a treat on it's own!! We can go on a dolphin cruise every night.

The Unique Benefits at this House

The cottage is the perfect size for us. Not too big, not too small. Plenty of elbow room for our family. We love sitting on the deck watching the boat activity and dolphins. The kids love the pool. We thought since we enjoyed it so much and our friends enjoyed it so much, that you would too. Sit back and relax....you're on vacation!!

    • We loved this place! I am originally from FWB and grew up on Garnier's Bayou. I didn't know I could find a place like this. I have searched before. Wende's place made me feel at home. There were no issues and my Califorina family loved it. Everything is well maintained and very new. Stay here! you will like it much more than condos in Destin!

    • Stayed for a week and loved every minute of it. If you have little kids, this is the place to stay. Wende, the owner, was a pleasure to deal with and everything went smoothly.

    • Just wanted to say how very much we enjoyed staying at the cottage. Our vacation was so much fun. We didn't stop from the moment we got there till it was time to leave. Thank Wendi for everything, and we would love to come back again.:)

    • We loved the house. The pool and jacuzzi were very relaxing.We had a problem while we were there but the owners took quick action to correct it and make our stay as comfortable as possible. We would stay again.

    • We loved the cottage and grounds!! The dock and pool/spa set up were awesome. It's location on the bayou was perfect for us -- we were there for a family reunion and it was just across the bayou from my parents house. We got in lots of great water time on our jet skis -- you just can't beat Ft. Walton Beach for sun, beach and water time!! The cottage was great, much cleaner and nicer than what we've stayed in before... we were very pleasantly surprised. I feel we got a bargain, and will have to fight off other family members to stay there during our reunion next year!!

    • Wende, Your property was just what we were looking for. We had plenty of room for the boat & jet skis & the ride to crab island was not far at all. The boys loved the location as well. We had a great time. Thanks, Leslie

    • This home was perfect for us. There are not many places you can find a home large enough for a large family, pool and hot tub out the back door, beautiful bay with a fabulous boat dock, grocery store across the street, and beaches within minutes, not to count a great price. The pictures do not do the place justice. We will return, hopefully this summer.

    • We had the best time at your cottage. Not only was the house perfect, the water access was GREAT. Not many places allow you to bring a boat. This was great. The top deck was so relaxing. Thank you for allowing us to stay there. We'll be back!
