About this property
Escape to Nature: Lakefront Jay Cottage w/ Views!
Clear your mind, restore your work-life balance, and disconnect to reconnect at this peaceful 2-bedroom, 2-bath cottage nestled in the outskirts of the Florida panhandle. While the vacation rental itself boasts plenty of charm — including lakefront views and modern touches — the scenic beauty of Pitnic Lake awaits just steps away. Make use of the provided kayak, canoe, and fishing boat, or explore on land. Come home to relax on the wraparound porch, perfect for birdwatching and sunset viewing.
