About this property

Beachfront bungalow with private direct beach access. Sleeps 8. Pet friendly!

This Alligator Point Cottage is located beachfront on the Gulf of Mexico in what’s known as Florida’s Forgotten Coast. While the Forgotten Coast is not as developed as is other Florida Gulf beaches, such as Destin or Panama City, this stretch of Gulf waters has it’s own unique peaceful beauty. Large white sand beaches are accessible directly in front of the home via a private walkway straight to the water.

A Natural for Family Enjoyment:
Alligator Court Cottage is perfect for young families, seniors or just a group of friends looking for a peaceful beach stay. Alligator Point is in an excellent white sand beach and awaits you for sunning, swimming, fishing from shore or just reading a good book.

The home:
This home features two bedrooms as well as two dual living-rooms with one sleeper sofa per living room. A large screened porch for dining and watching the sunset. A fully stocked kitchen for preparing your catch of the day.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

Great Pet Friendly Beach House

Checkin: I didn’t get an email with specific check in instructions, but I was able to text the owner with a quick and fantastic response. We would have liked to use both pull out sofas but one had a sofa cover over it and we didn’t feel good about taking g that off. It’s advertised to sleep 8, but actually, it would be better for 6 adults because two of the beds are sofa beds. It’s was very clean. The screened in porch is by far the best part of this house. Lots of seating and a beautiful view of the ocean. It’s perfect if you are traveling with a dog. The bathrooms are the tiniest bathrooms…zero space for your toiletries. That is one renovation I would tackle if I owned this house. If you like a very remote beach vacation, this is definitely the place!!

A perfect getaway

50 steps to the beach (we measured), beautiful Gulf of Mexico, and all the house accommodations we could ask for at this price. What else you should know... The closest small food store is 5 miles away. The beach sand is gorgeous. The water is a bit stained due to the nearby Ochlockonee River (might vary with the tide.)
