Beautiful 5 bedrooms, 5.5 baths on sound and walking distance to beach and shops
Just read the reviews for this beautiful five bedroom, five and one-half baths with expansive sound views. Our goal is to make this vacation one to remember and the reviews reflect it! The 4th floor has a bonus room as well as king bedroom and bath. The views are incredible! The 3rd floor has 3 bedrooms (king, queen, twin) and 3 baths and some have views of the sound. The 2nd floor has a living room, dining room and kitchen with counter seating. There is a porch and deck off this space for bird watching and looking at spectacular sunsets! The king bedroom offers sounds views and a large bath. There is a half bath on this floor. The first floor has a two car garage with a Nema 14-50 for charging electric vehicles. There is also an elevator. There are many reasons you may be content to stay inside but you also have great options to get outside and enjoy everything Cottages at Bay Ridge in Atlantic Beach has to offer. The boardwalk (approximately one-third mile and right next to our home) which leads to a covered gazebo on our private island on the sound. Fishing, crabbing, paddle boarding, or picnicking are all possibilities while enjoying the outdoor beauty. You are in walking distance to shopping, pool, restaurants, bars and grocery store. We are accommodating and try to respond quickly if you have any questions.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

We loved our stay at this property! The owner was very good at providing local recommendations and had a printed document at the house as well. She contacted us after we got settled in the make sure everything was good which was a nice touch! The views from the back porch were incredible at sunset! We look forward to staying at her home again.
Beautiful , spacious house in a lovely neighborhood. It is located Right next to the private walkway onto a small island owned by the neighborhood.We enjoyed the close proximity to the food lion and several great restaurants like Monkey bar and Table 9. The neighborhood pool was enjoyable as well.
This home exceeded our expectations in every way! This is not just a vacation rental. It is a home away from home, immaculately kept, beautifully and tastefully decorated, and located in a very inviting neighborhood.
This spacious home was the perfect choice for our group of 5 longtime friends. Nicely decorated home, and the elevator was an added bonus. The view of the sound and the sunsets in the evening were wonderful. The property owner was great to work with and very accommodating.
We had such a fantastic time at this house. The view was gorgeous, the house was well appointed, everything we could possibly need. Loved the kitchen, the flow of the home, and everything about it actually. Sitting on the back screened in porch was one of our favorite morning and evening activities. Thank you, Kaye for such kind and prompt communication with us. We definitely look forward to coming back!
We loved our time at this home! Beautiful, solid and well kept. Would highly recommend! Thank you for having us.

Disliked: Location
Home is beautiful but definitely outdated. Bedrooms should have TV's, house did not have a mop or bucket which i bought and left for future visitors. Beware for those of color( Black or Hispanic), neighbors very racist. After asking " neighbors " in community if their Pool Fobs were deactivated for pool access, they advised it was not. Lost 3 days of pool access. Wont even comment on 2 occasions of harassment at pool, on my way back home, my wife and i noticed what we thought were mosquitos bite, turns out it was bed bugs.
Our family really enjoy our stay at the cottage. It’s perfect in every way. The location, the view, the property and the entire experience is just perfect. We would definitely come back and visit again.
Beautiful property clean great location near the pool and within walking distance to beach about 1/2 miles away. We had a group of 7 and slept comfortably and had enough space to spread out to have alone time as well. The elevator was convenient for heavy suitcases and bringing in groceries. The property owner was pleasant and easy to get a hold of. We enjoyed our stay
Kitchen was good, I was able to cook a complete thanksgiving dinner (I did bring a roaster). I missed a few things but I would certainly call the kitchen well equipped.
We had a lot of trouble regulating the temperature in the house but that was the only problem we had. There was plenty of common space and bedrooms. The elevator was great, there are a lot of steep stairs. The sound is beautiful and there is a lot to do in Atlantic Beach.
We had a great weekend. This property has a wonderful view of the inlet and is close to everything. It was immaculate and had plenty of room to watch tv or just sit on the rear deck and enjoy the cool weather. We will definitely be returning in the future when we have more time to stay.
The house was great and the house owner was extremely responsive if we had questions. We had 5 adults and 3 children and the living area was spacious enough for everyone to be comfortable and together. Wish it was a little closer to beach access, but would definitely stay here again.
We had family of 10 adults. We all loved the gorgeous marsh view. Spectacular sunsets each night! Home is beautifully decorated and convenient to many things.
