Stayed 10 nights with my husband and our fur babies. As always, this place is perfect. Most everything you need is already there but if not it’s located right in the middle of shopping so no problem! We’ve stayed in Destin for about 20 years at multiple different places and THIS is our favorite. It’s home away from home for us. Plenty of room in the cottage with the cutest decor and comfy beds. 5 min walk to the beach is a selling point too!
