About this property

Pet Friendly Cottage steps to the Gulf with private dock on the Intercoastal

Cutest two bedroom cottage in Indian Shores. The white sands of the Gulf are 200 steps away. Walk through nature trail to your own private dock on the inter-coastal.

Our home is pet friendly, but please note there is an additional fee for cleaning up the additional pet hair.

Plus, if you are looking for a larger group(multiple families) - book our stilt home on the property(1825488) and have additional space.

The cottage has been renovated - kitchen has new quartz countertop, new glass top oven, with all rooms being painted and new ceiling fans installed. The cottage has one bedroom with a queen size bed, and a second bedroom with twin over full bunk bed. Plus, enjoy the spacious screened in porch.

We have a full shower and a washer and dryer for your exclusive use.

After an exhilarating day on the beach, use the outside access door to go straight into the bathroom and get ready for a fun night of ice cream, a block away, or a nice dinner at one of the many surrounding restaurants.

Enjoy strolling through the mangrove nature preserve to our back yard - where there is a private dock on the intercoastal - perfect for fishing, bird watching, dolphin watching, or just relaxing and reading a book.

If you prefer a night in, enjoy making a home cooked meal in our full kitchen and enjoy your cuisine on the screened-in back porch.

We are only a few minutes' walk away from a water sports rental company, delicious restaurants, and local gift store.

Our address is 19735 Gulf Blvd, Indian Shores

Wonderful cottage

We had a great stay for the week at this adorable cottage! It had everything we needed to be our home away from home, and the location was perfect! Such a short walk across the street to the beach and the private dock in the back on the intracoastal was also nice! Everything was clean and as expected, so no complaints here! Would definitely stay at this charming beach cottage again!

Location!!

My run buddy and I went to see our friends there. This was the perfect fit for us to enjoy the beach. My friend and I enjoyed the quiet and easy access to beach. Lots of amenities were available as we flew in. Makes it nicer not to have to grab things at the store. We LOVED every evening going to sit at the bay after sunset.

Perfect beach cottage

We had the best month ever here. It’s so close to the local bars and restaurants. We rode our bikes to several stores and restaurants and there are 2 ice cream shops within a very short walking distance. 30 minutes with traffic to the Phillies and Blue Jays spring training facilities. Oh, and the beach is literally across the street. The kids were able to use the crosswalk just outside of the house to cross the street to get to the beach. The house had all of the necessities and even some toys and things for the kids to use at the beach. We had the best time and can’t wait to get back. Would definitely rent again!

Great Getaway

It was much needed getaway since Covid began in March 2020. This was the perfect size for our family. The beach was across the street along with a private pier for the intercoastal waterway. We saw many stingrays in both waters. Communication with the property owner was easy. She was quick to respond when I had a question and offered a quick solution if needed. I would definitely consider staying there again when I go back to the area.

Great Beach Cottage with dock on intercoastal waters

Very nice and clean with nice furniture and very roomy for the size! Everything you need - just like home, including Washer/Dryer, gas grill, etc. Across the street from public beach access. Mangrove behind with walk to deck on water. Very reasonable rate! Located on the scenic gulf road that runs along the fabulous white sand beach between Clearwater & St Pete Beach. If you have never been to this area check it out. A lot of the old Florida charm is still there!

Beach cottage

We rented the cottage for the months of February and March. We absolutely loved it. Perfect location. Beach was right across the street. If it was too windy for the beach we would sit on the dock on the intercostal. It was so peaceful and quiet. The cottage was cozy and bright and had everything you needed. Loved the collapsible clothes baskets in the closet. Enjoyed sitting on screened in porch and grilling out. The owners were readily available if we needed them. We loved the area and the people we met. Can’t wait to go back next year.

Great location!

We liked this rental. The beach entrance was right across the street and was located in a great area. The family behind us were very friendly. The beds were comfortable as were the sheets and towels. There was a beach wagon, toys, and chairs. We were going to attempt the kayak but we spent most of our time on the beach with the kids. Bring bug spray for the nature trail if mosquitoes love you like they love us. 😆 We watched Netflix on the living room tv but we didn’t spend much time in the room. We wer usually at the beach or on the screened in back porch, which we loved!
