About the host
Hosted by Jodi Perry
My husband and I have 3 teenagers and own a farm about an hour away from Crystal Beach. We purchased our beach cottage for a place to get away and relax since work and our farm keeps us busy. We own cattle, donkeys, pigs, chickens, guineas, ducks, goats, dogs, cats and rabbits.
Why they chose this property
Our cottage is centrally located on Bolivar minutes to The Big Store, local eateries and the infamous "wash out". We are located on the corner with direct and quick access to the beach. We have amazing views of the Gulf and plenty of outdoor space to relax and enjoy the breeze.
What makes this property unique
We offer use of our smoker and Blackmon griddle/air fryer. Downstairs you will find a hammock, swing, outdoor table/chairs and a bar. Wake up in the mornings and enjoy homemade waffles in our waffle maker and a cup of coffee from our dual purpose coffee maker. We hope you enjoy our home as much as we do!
