Great family vacation

Big open common area with Kitchen/living room, with plenty if room to eat, play ganes, have a movie night with three big bedrooms with awesome queen mattresses, we slept well! The 4th bedroom has two twin beds which was great for the bigger kids and the sleeper couch in the sunroom was great for the smaller kids. We enjoyed using the kayaks, fishing, exploring nature, finding hermit crabs, sand castles, etc...we also went to the Aquarium nearby, Alligator Point to fish for baby sharks and swim, Mash Sands Beach at low tide to see all the creatures...St. Marks Lighthouse and took our boat to go scalloping. Great trip!

Mashes Sands

Nice older home -- BR TV didn't work. Shower head leaked. Recliner handles broken and not very comfortable. Felt like grit/sand on the tile floor when we arrived. But overall -- since it's a older home - it was expected. We had a good time -- even w 20 degree weather.

Excellent!!

We had an amazing week long stay at the Cottage. The listing is precise to the amenities and location! We saw the beautiful white squirrel almost every day we were there. The dolphins showed up the first night for a short period of time, but the last night we were there they put on a full show of blowing, jumping completely out of the water flipping around for a good hour or so right out in-front of us. We absolutely loved it. Everything we needed was there. Toiletries, dish soap, laundry detergent, plates, cups, etc. You name it, it was there. The property manager and owner were exceptional. Immediately responded to any questions before and during our stay. Went above and beyond to make sure everything was provided to make our stay perfect. The sun room was the place to be for sunrise, and out of the sand gnats. The sunsets were as always, breath taking! Panacea has always been our family’s go to for trips, and the Cottage was perfect for us! The ONLY recommendation I have for the future is the dock being rebuilt. Other than that, the property was perfect and we loved our stay. We will definitely be back. Thanks Jodi and Patti for being awesome and so accommodating for us.

Nice big house

Big and beautiful house. Picture of pier was misleading being that it was the neighbors and the pier for this house is completely dismantled and unusable. Besides that, the house was great. Beautiful sunroom that we loved sitting in.

We had the best accommodations that we had EVER had. The home is emaculent and perfect. It was clean, lots of space/room, supplied with anything you could possibly need. Outside decks were spacious and pleasant to hang out. Saw white squirrels and a dolphin or two. Would defiantly recommend and return to.
