About this property

Private - Waterfront Cottage - Panama City, FL


Welcome to this charming cottage in Panama City. This excellent property features 2 cozy bedrooms - one with a queen bed and the other with a bunk bed. The bathroom is equipped with a shower and a hair dryer for your convenience. In the additional living space, you'll find a comfy sofa bed perfect for relaxing after a day of exploring. Feel free to reach out to us during your stay - we're happy to suggest local spots to check out.

Private Waterfront Cottage - Centrally Located to Beaches, Colleges, Publix Sports Complex, Frank Brown Park Sports Complex, and Historic St Andrews. This is a small space, but well-suited for singles, couples, and small families. A family up to 4, or 5 with little ones, should not feel cramped. The main bedroom is a good size, and the bunk nook separates from the living space for privacy. Additionally, you will find the outdoor space adds to the indoor space. The spacious porch is divided into two parts. The front of the house is screened in for outdoor dining or just a little front porch sittin'. The side (backside) of the porch overlooks the canal and the open sky. It is a great place to sit and watch the ducks while you listen to the breeze that runs through the trees that surround the cottage. Please review pictures for spatial awareness.

Have a boat? This oversized property has space for parking a boat or trailer (if you prefer to lease dock space nearby). There are two public boat launches only minutes away and a small marina at the opening of the canal that this house rests beside.

Interested in renting a kayak, or two? For an additional fee, you can rent kayaks while staying at Turtle Cove. It is a very peaceful, short ride down the canal to the open bay where you can watch a magnificent sunrise or sunset...or just spend a little time fishing and playing in the open water. Ask me for additional information.

Are you looking for extra concierge services such as bonfires, fishing excursions, jet ski/boat rentals, shell island tours, etc? Please let me know, and I will be happy to help you setup the perfect vacation.

Additionally, this centrally located cottage is only 7 miles from St. Andrew's State Park and Panama City's Most Beautiful Beaches, 1 mile from Gulf Coast State College, 4 miles from Gulf Coast Hospital, 1.5 miles from historic St. Andrews Marina and Restaurants, and 11 miles from Pier Park.
OR...Did you come for the sports? Turtle Cove Cottage is only 5 miles from Panama City Beach/Publix Sports Park on Chip Seal Pkwy and 10 miles from Frank Brown Park.

We work very hard to assure that all of our guests enjoy their vacation in a beautiful, clean environment! We want you to feel comfortable and enjoy your private vacation while staying. However, if you need anything, or you have any problems, we live locally and are here to help when needed.

Your vacation awaits!

Perfect place close to the beach

A great little house with everything we needed for a weeks stay. On a 15 minute drive to the beach. My kids especially loved watching the crabs out back during low tide.

Response from VrboOwner on 11 Sept 2025
I am thrilled that you found it a great place to stay. Yes, the canal has lots of fun sea creatures...the crabs are a lot of fun to watch. I've had many guests catch fish right off the bank. Please do come back again soon.

Tucked away very private location

Really enjoyed the stay, clean, host was wonderful, easy access to everything, neighborhood was a little old but once you pulled in the driveway it felt like another world. Will hopefully back later this year for the second trip if it’s available!

Exactly what we needed

Clean, quiet, away from the business but close enough to access everything we wanted. I really wish i had brought our kayaks but we stayed going so much it would've been hard to fit extra in. This place was just perfect for our needs and we are already planning a return adventure, thank you for letting us share with you!

Thank you so much for staying with us. The kayak is definitley an option! We do provide kayaks as a concierge service. Next time, please let us know, and we will make that happen. Paddling out to fish or just play in the bay is the best! We look forward to your coming back soon.

Convenient

This was the perfect little home for us during our soccer tournament. Location was minutes away from fields, restaurants, beach, and shopping. The house had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The kids enjoyed fishing from the bank during our stay. Perfect little home for a small family!

Thank you so much for the good review, Kelli. We find that most guests love the convenient proximity to everything while also remaining peaceful and private. Of course fishing right off the bank is among everyone’s favorite as well. Thank you for staying with us, and please do come back again soon.
