Christa- So glad to hear you enjoyed your quiet get-a-way on 30A. Our Seagrove/Eastern Lake neighborhood is heavily wooded, with nice lot sizes, just overall tucked away and quiet. And yet with all of that, we are minutes from one of the largest public beach accesses on 30A. If. you are looking to be close to everything 30A has to offer but want a relaxing home base, Ms Millie's Cottage is the right choice. We would love to welcome you and your family back again soon- Randy and Laura
Great beach house in Seagrove. The kitchen has everything you need for cooking any type of meal and beach access is close by. Wonderful hosts who are very communicative and friendly.

Trent- We were very happy to welcome you back to Ms Millie's Cottage. Sounds like your second stay was as good as your first. We do try to make sure that all of your cooking needs are meet. There are wonderful restaurants all along 30A but is also really nice to pick up the fresh catch from Buddy's Seafood Market or prime meats from The Salty Butcher and have an excellent meal in. We are so lucky to have both of these fine shops right in our neighborhood. We hope we can welcome you back again soon-Randy and Laura
This is our 2nd time staying at Ms. Millie’s Cottage and by far our favorite place! Great for a small family or couples! Having the option for the golf cart is also a plus. This house is a great location for us with younger kids! We can’t wait to go back!
Clean, completely updated, cozy cottage. Great location! An extremely short walk to the beach!

Edwin-Thank you for being such wonderful guests! Ms Millie's is a cozy cottage, that is just the right size. Its open feeling inside makes it feel spacious, and wonderful for a family. One of the things that make Ms Millie's so special is its quiet cozy setting, tucked into the trees, yet minutes from one of the largest public beach accesses on 30A. We hope to welcome you back soon- Randy and Laura
Ms Millie's Cottage was perfect for our family of 4! It's located right off of 30A on a quiet street. We found it very clean and well appointed with all key amenities provided. Highly recommed for those seeking a location close to the beach but tucked away from the hustle and bustle.

We are lucky to be so close to the Eastern Lake beach access that has such a wide open area of beach for all to enjoy. We would love to welcome you back again soon-Tim
We enjoyed our family trip! It is a short walk to the beach and I would highly recommend bringing wagons if you have little ones! The home was so lovely and had everything we needed. It is not a large home but the layout made it feel perfect for the seven of us (four adults and three small children). We had a blast and would love to go back!

Getting to the beach is a breeze with the Eastern Lake beach access just minutes away. We would love to welcome you back soon-Randy and Laura
Everything was perfect. The house, the neighborhood, proximity to shops and the beach. We had a great time.

Sarah-We are thrilled to hear you enjoyed your stay at Ms Millie's Cottage. Our location really can't be beat. We are so close the the beautiful Eastern Lake public beach access which is one of the largest and least crowded public beach access on 30A. With the opening of the Greenway Station complex we now have a wonderful selection of shops and restaurants within a quick 5 minute walk from the house. Our calm, wooded neighborhood is a quiet respite from some of the Spring Break crowds in other areas along 30A. Location, location, location, Ms Millie's can't be beat! We hope we can welcome you and your family back again soon-Randy and Laura
Everything was perfect. Randy, the host, is very nice, and keeps in touch. The cottage is in excellent condition and the kitchen well stocked. We all had a wonderful vacation.
We had a wonderful stay at Ms. Millie’s Cottage. We loved how well appointed all the rooms were. We enjoyed the decks for morning coffee and a morning workout. Close to the beach and many restaurants. (We rented the golf cart, which the kids loved and made our trips to the beach easy)

Linda- I'm so glad you enjoyed the house and your stay. We have stocked and appointed the house to make your stay as effortless as possible. And you are right, kids love the golf cart. It makes the trip extra special but is certainly not a necessity with our proximity to the beach. I hope you and your family will find time to visit Ms Millie's Cottage again soon- Randy and Laura
We enjoyed staying here. The house is very clean, updated, and the owners/management are wonderful! It is a short walk from the beach that is manageable for adults. However, it’s definitely worth it to rent the golf cart if you have small children. We enjoyed our week!

Brandy- I'm so glad you enjoyed your stay and noticed the terrific job our cleaning people do. They really are fantastic and we could not be successful without them. The golf cart is a great add on for young kids. Even though we are a short 7 minute walk to the beach, the beach gear and tired kiddos can be a lot at the end of the day. The golf cart is definitely not necessary, but does make life easier for the parents :) I sure hope we can welcome you back soon-Tim
We have stayed in numerous rentals along 30A. This home was one of the best. Impressed by the cleanliness and quality of the bedding, furniture, and tableware they put into this house. The owners were so nice. I will be staying at this house again.

From the very beginning Tim was wonderful to work with. The home is furnished beautifully and the kitchen is gorgeous. Everything was brand new and we loved that. It was very easy to get to the beach and that is super important. Can’t wait to stay there next time.

Hi Becky- I'm glad you had a great stay and enjoyed the house. We love the kitchen too! Nice and open, and so easy for multiple cooks to be working at once. Our neighborhood near Eastern Lake is quite unique, wooded, quiet and tucked away, yet very close the the wonderful Eastern Lake beach access. Spring Break can be a very busy time on 30A but our area generally remains calm and quiet. Hope you can make it back soon-Tim
I can’t say enough about this property! It is just as beautiful as it is in the photos. The house was very clean and just a short walk to the beach. The house is well stocked, and the bikes and golf cart are so convenient! Thank you for sharing your home with us, we can’t wait to come back!

Jovie- I'm so glad you had such a great stay with your family. All of our guests love the bikes and many of our guests opt to rent the golf cart. Although it is definitely no needed to get to the beach it does make for fun trips around town. Hope you can come back soon-Tim
Our first trip to Ms Millie's Cottage won't be our last. It was the perfect size for me, my wife, my daughter and our dog. We enjoyed the solitude of the woodsy area but just a quick golf cart right to the beach. It's definitely worth renting the golf cart. The amenities were great. It's a very comfortable house.

Jeff- I’m so glad you and your family enjoyed your stay and the solitude our neighborhood provides. The golf cart is a fun addition but definitely not mandatory for getting to the beach which is about a 7 minute walk from the house. We would love to count you amongst our many repeat guests. I hope you can find time to return again soon- Tim
My family loved this beach cottage. It was decorated beautifully and was equipped with anything and everything we needed. It was a short walk or bike ride to the beach. We loved the quaint little street it was on. It was truly perfection and has been one of our favorite places we have stayed. The communication was with the property manager was also extremely efficient and effective.
The house was really great! I wish it would have had 1 more bathroom or even a half bath... loved the house being one level..the golf cart is a MUST!! We had a great week!

Why they chose this property
We were so fortunate to be able to purchase this home from Tim Oko of Oko Builders. A chance meeting through a friend and the connection was made. We fell in love with the house and the neighborhood instantly. We so appreciate the craftsmanship and thought that Oko Builders put into the remodel. We love the quiet, wooded location, the cottage feel of the neighborhood, and the great beach access.
