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!

Doedy seems like a best friend type of person, who goes out of her way to connect and create a comfortable stay. The property is super cute and we loved the quietness behind another property location. 10 stars, hoping to be able to stay again soon.

Beautiful home in a quiet space by the canal. My husband, daughters , dog and I loved staying there. It was clean and well maintained. We were close enough to the beach and shopping for daily trips for activities! Very pleased with the stay and our very friendly and easy to communicate with host! Highly recommend!

Doedy was such an amazing host! I couldn’t ask for better communication from the get go. The property was so nice, had everything you could possibly need, private, and exactly what we were looking for. My husband and I loved our stay so much and hope to stay here every time we’re in PCB!

We really enjoyed our time here. It was nice to have a peaceful place to escape after spending the day at the beach and baseball fields. The location gave us the best of both worlds, quiet and private, but still close to everything. We also loved that we could bring our dog along, which made the trip even more enjoyable. The host was fantastic to work with and was quick to respond when we had a minor issue. She even called us and offered to come by if we needed anything. We'd definitely recommend this cottage and would love to stay here again.

We have stayed here 3 times and thoroughly enjoyed each one. Clean, comfortable, quiet and close enough to get to all the things we enjoy, but far enough away to not be caught up in the congestion and noise. If you took a kayak, you are very close to excellent flats to fish on, but I tried to behave and not make the trip all about fishing.... one of these days I will talk her into that though LOL

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.

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!

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!

I'll start by saying that in general, I am not a huge fan of Panama City Beach. In the past, the only thing I've liked about PCB is the deep sea fishing trips out of Capt. Andersen's Marina. Fortunately, I was pleasantly surprised when I arrived at the VRBO. It was perfect. Exactly what we needed. Hidden away from the bustle, but still close to attractions and restaurants, it was clean, well maintained, and suited our needs to a tee. Communication was great, check in was easy, as was checkout. Everything worked, no surprises. I try to get to PCB at least every two years to fish; now I have a place to stay that blows away the hotels in quality and price, that I know will reliably meet my needs and remove one piece of worry from my journey. The place was right in the area that I needed to be without making me feel like I was in PCB. There is nothing about this rental that I would not recommend.

This is a really nice space away from the rush of the area. There is a train and NSA navy nearby with jets flying over but none of that was constant. I have a family of 6 and we all loved it so much. There’s a lagoon to sit by or fish in, we caught red fish, and croakers. The communication was top notch with our host. We would absolutely book another stay, and I will recommend any of my friend & family to book a stay!

Perfect place to enjoy Panama City that is close to boat ramps and has Lagoon access. We really appreciated the covered carport to pull our kayaks under that was secure and out of the sun. Even though the cabin is close to homes, its location provides privacy and security. Thank you for having such a lovely place! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay!
