I'm so glad you love it as much as I do, lol. Flamingo is my go-to getaway even though it's only a few houses down from mine. I'll leave my phone at home and walk over to read a book or watch a movie--it's the ultimate cozy cottage!

I appreciate the great review. I have several historic homes in this neighborhood as vacation rentals. It's convenient for me to have them close by and it's a benefit for guests who want family and friends nearby--but in their own house.

I'm glad you had a great time, and enjoyed the house and yard for your dog. Over half of my guests travel with a dog so making sure the houses and yards are pet friendly is important. You and your dog are welcome back any time, and I appreciate you being great guests.

We had a great stay at the Flamingo Cottage. Debra, the host, was very friendly, easy to contact and considerate of our needs. We loved the location of the cottage with quick access to the beach and Gulfport, as well as other nearby coastal towns. I would definitely recommend the cottage to anyone looking for a great place to stay while on vacation.

I'm glad you discovered some of the other little towns along the Coast. Gulfport is my favorite, of course--it's been my home for the past 30 years as a Florida transplant. The entire Coast is beautiful and miles of open beach is a huge draw for our area.

While dogs aren't allowed on the sand beach, leashed dogs can be on the miles-long boardwalk by the beach. Your dog was a sweetie and hope she enjoyed the huge fenced yard.
