Perfect quiet get-away

Fantastic location and very quiet. The beach is peaceful and very clean, the neighbor has very little traffic and was great for a morning walk. The walking proximity to the beach was an easy trip. We spent all of our time in the house on the front porch, I don’t think we ever turned on the television. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and hope to return soon.

Good time, Great location.

Family trip, 3 kids, 5,10,15. Location was outstanding, property worked well for us. Could use a little updating, but no complaints really. Being pet friendly was a big plus, as we have a small, elderly dog. She enjoyed laying on the deck, and walking on the beach.Kids had a great time, and enjoyed the short walk to the beach. Seemed like 50 yards or so. Weather was hot, but being so close to the beach it was pleasant. Beautiful sunrise which we enjoyed each morning. Would stay again.

Lovely stay and perfect beach access

We brought our family of four as well as our two dogs. This place was perfect. We had a few questions before the trip, and Martha was quick to get back to us every time. The screened-in porch is key. There weren't a ton of bugs at our time of year, but it would be perfect at a more buggy time which would make us rent again!.Having an outdoor shower was perfect for getting the sand off the dogs and us. The house was just enough space for all of us with a great cross breeze at night. We loved that the beach access was just across the street and wasn't "Spring Break" crazy busy. The dogs had room to run, and we could be back and forth easily. We really loved this place!

A little piece of paradise

This vintage beach house was very clean, had everything you need, cozy and so close to the beach. The porch was everything, you have a beautiful view of the gulf and can hear the waves crashing! Mrs. Martha is such a doll and was available anytime! My husband, our furbabies and I will definitely be booking again!!

Perfect, Relaxing Beach House

We have stayed at this house every summer for the past few years, and, to me, it is the perfect little beach house. It is in a quiet, private community, and a short walk down the driveway and across the street and you are on the uncrowded beach. The screened in front porch is wonderful! A great place if you are looking for quiet and relaxing.

Perfect little getaway

We loved our time at Pott’s Spot. The outside was a little dated, but that didn’t matter to us! The inside was a little updated with everything to meet your needs minus a dishwasher, which is of course in the listing. We loved the A frame screened in porch, outdoor shower, and closet full of beach stuff the most. It was a quick walk/golf cart ride to the public beach access just a couple houses down and across.

Wonderful stay

This house is a wonderful location with wonderful features. The beach is just a short distance away making it easy to go back and forth as needed. The house is a great space and we throughly enjoyed having a screened in porch overlooking the gulf. When we arrived we noticed one of the screens was pushed out in a corner, and Martha came to get it fixed up. We greatly appreciated her attentiveness to making our stay wonderful.
