This was our 4th time staying here and it was excellent as always. Wendy was great to communicate with, the property was clean, well stocked with most everything we need and the location is perfect. We will definitely be returning to Miller High Life.
The house is exactly like the pictures! So clean, cozy and well stocked with everything you need for a perfect beach getaway! Wendy is so helpful and easy to communicate with. This is our second time there and will not be our last. We highly recommend it!
The cottage was perfect! Had everything we needed for a peaceful week at the beach. Comfortable, cozy and clean-with a great fenced yard! Wendy was very responsive and an excellent host!
This is the ideal vacation home to “get away from it all” and enjoy the beach with your dog(s). The house is cozy and clean and has every amenity imaginable. The host has provided everything from all the kitchen appliances to ziploc bags to laundry soap! There are so many great spots in this house from which to sit and enjoy the great beach view. The island is peaceful and remote; so pack some groceries and a book (or read one of the many provided) and prepare to relax. The host is very responsive and caring. I’d give this property 6 stars if I could !
Wendy is THE BEST host. Her cottage is so warm and welcoming and she is the most caring host I have have the pleasure of encountering. She supplies everything and anything you need to be relaxed and comfortable, the cottage is spotless and the location is perfect for our fur family. This was our second stay and we cannot wait until next year!
The cottage is perfectly clean and furnished with many cozy touches as well as beautiful art. Wendy is one of the most friendly and welcoming hosts of any place where we've visited. What we enjoy the most about the house is the location in a quiet, non-crowded area away from traffic, with only the birds and sea life surrounding us. The view of sunrise and sunset from the screened porch is beyond compare!
We had the most amazing stay at this beautiful property! If you are looking for seclusion, the beauty of nature and ultimate RELAXATION then look no further! Wendy is a thoughtful and attentive host and we appreciate her sharing this beautiful beach cottage with us.
A cute and cozy cottage right on the beach. Perfect location. Fishing off the beach was great. Caught Spotted Trout, Whiting, Ladyfish and Sail Catfish. The cottage was spotless and nicely furnished and decorated. Definitely want to go back for another visit and hopefully stay for a couple of weeks. One week was just not enough.
The cottage was perfect for our first "empty nester" vacation after sending the kids off to college. Ms Wendy provided thoughtful welcome gifts (eggs, muffins, jam, wine!) that were very much appreciated as well as the dog bed and beautiful quilts to keep warm in the colder months. I'm already looking forward to our next visit.
This was one of my absolute favorite vacations we have experienced! Wendy was amazing from the start all the way through, even after we left! Her house was charming, clean, & absolutely perfect for us & our boys to enjoy some relaxing time on the beach!
We loved our stay. The house was very comfortable and so close to the beach. The fenced in yard was perfect for our dog. This was our 2nd time there and plan on coming again soon.
Cottage was cozy and clean. Great view. Host went above and beyond. Wonderful. Will be back.

About the host
Hosted by Wendy Miller
My husband and I bought this Cottage in 1996 as a weekend getaway. As native Floridians, we grew up spending many weekends and summers at the beach. Neither of us had a family home at the beach, so when we were afforded the opportunity to own a piece of Alligator Point, we were thrilled. My husband passed in 2020 from complications from COVID19, so now I manage the Cottage with the help of my daughter. The weight of the world lifts as you cross the Ochlockonee Bay Bridge headed to the Point. I am sure you will experience the same feeling; I welcome you to enjoy Florida's Forgotten Coast.
Why they chose this property
Million dollar views; great sunsets and sunrises.
