About this property

Family and dog friendly beach cottage w/pool & grill in quaint seaside village

***Just a note*** We only accept well-behaved, non-aggressive breeds. There is an additional Pet Fee, which you will be prompted to add when you book. Sorry, no cats.

This is not your typical rental with hand-me-down everything. From the moment you walk in, you will feel at home in this cozy beach cottage. This lavishly redone home has a spacious master suite with jetted tub and stall shower, plus sliding doors to the heated pool. A privacy fence surrounds the pool with landscape lighting that makes you feel like you're at a 5 star resort. The master has a quiet sitting area for reading and a dressing table. Relax in the large living room with wide-screen TV and electric fireplace (no mess, just ambience!), or hang out in the pool surround with your morning java & paper. The roomy second bedroom has its own private bath with tub shower. There is also a TV as well. Both bedrooms have high end bed linens. Our small office has a desk, wi-fi, and a 3 in 1 printer. Coming soon: a TV & chairs. The kitchen has the latest appliances (induction stove & convection microwave) and is well equipped for those who like to cook. Don't care to cook? There is a plethora of fabulous restaurants just three short blocks from your door. The screened lanai has lounging chairs, a dining table and a grill, plus lots of pool toys for kids & adults alike. Our front porch features a small seating area for two, plus a bistro table under the trees for al fresco dining. Our laundry room is equipped with new washer/dryer, iron & board. A quiet, safe getaway perfect for a couple or family where you can walk or bike to everything you need.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

About the host

Hosted by Lysa Riggs

Host profile image
My husband, Don, and I are semi-retired and split our time between two homes in Florida and NC. We enjoy skiing, hiking, boating, fishing, attending theater, opera, ballet, and museums. We love to travel. We strive to ensure that our guests feel as much at home as possible, and try to provide all the info they need to feel like a local almost immediately.

Why they chose this property

This sweet little cottage in a lovely quiet neighborhood is beautifully appointed, yet you can walk a block to the beach or 3 blocks to restaurants, pubs, and shops. EVERYTHING in Gulfport is a short walk away. Take a yoga class, get a massage, have your nails done, get your dog groomed, pick out a book at the library, have lunch on the beach, take a salsa lesson, ride your bike to the market, fish off the pier or just plain relax by our pool and read a book. You CAN have it all:)

What makes this property unique

We are located in the coveted Arts District of Gulfport. Our neighborhood has brick streets with shading tree canopies. Our neighbors are super nice and will probably greet you as you stroll by. The beach is a 5 min. walk and we provide beach chairs, umbrella, and cooler. Boat, kayak, and jet ski rentals are also close by. Bus transportation within 2 blocks to beaches and cities of St. Petersburg, Tampa & Sarasota.
