Quite, secluded and beautiful views of bay.

Very quiet place. Extremely clean and well appointed. It smelled SO nice when we arrived. Very large bedrooms and comfy beds. We brought our two pups and having the yard fenced in was wonderful. The bay view from the cottage was A. Brought my 98 year old Mom so not having to navigate stairs was very helpful. Enjoyed our stay and highly recommend This place for someone looking for peace and quiet.

Beautiful home that is fully furnished with everything you need for a relaxing trip. The view from the porch and deck were outstanding. The owners were a delight to work with, will definitely be back for another stay.

The cottage was AMAZING! All details were exactly like the description says. Kitchen was stocked, beds were soft, towels and other essentials were provided, including beach towels and beach chairs along with the washer/dryer on site. This place is a true gem and Trish is a fantastic host!

Amazing view! Home was clean and comfortable. Internet was fast and I was able to get some work done without hauling out my StarLink. My dogs enjoyed the fenced in front yard. Neighborhood was quiet and beach access at the end of the road was convenient. Looking forward to coming back soon.

Magical Beach Cottage!

We had such a lovely time here! We spent a lot of time exploring the beach at the end of the road - so many hermit crabs and other neat beach creatures, especially at low tide! This very comfortable and adorable cottage was just the place to unwind, relax and ring in my 47th birthday with my husband and 12-year-old daughter. There are many delicious seafood restaurants nearby, we paddled the Wakulla River and visited the Gulf Specimen Marine Lab. So much nature and beauty to soak in!

We really enjoyed our stay at this lovely home. It was clean, well laid out, and full of natural light — especially in the dining/florida room. It had all we needed and then some! The fenced front yard was perfect for my dog to enjoy safely, he loved his first trip to the beach! The quiet neighborhood made for a relaxing getaway, and I loved paddleboarding right from the backyard while watching sea birds and stunning sunsets. The beach at the end of the road is also beautiful and a short walk or even shorter drive away. The hosts were friendly and communicated with us throughout our stay, making everything smooth and easy. We’d definitely stay here again!

Little slice of heaven!

What a piece of old Florida! Charming beach bungalow on the river. So peaceful, and serine who could ask for more. You can actually see the stars at night. The home is just perfect for wanting to get away. Great layout, and well appointed! I want to rent it for a month!Thanks!!!

Relax and Refresh is a great place. We enjoyed the Florida room and the view! We saw dolphin swim past twice. Also enjoyed watching the birds! The house is clean and comfortable.well stocked with everything we needed. The fenced yard is great if you have dogs. Our only disappointment was to find out the deck is not attached to the dock shown in the pictures,and the dock is unavailable for use.

Perfect Getaway

We found the house to be very cute with 2 master bedrooms with complete bathrooms in both, kitchen and living room in the middle. We did not bring our doggie but the fenced in yard was clean and looked very safe to let your dog go out into. Large Florida room had a dining table for 6 and a twin bed for a nap for my mom. We fished from the beach behind the house. Highly recommend.
