About this property

Hudson Beach Waterfront

2025 UPDATE: **Our house has been completely renovated! See the new pictures! ** You'll start to relax as soon as you arrive at your waterfront destination across from Hudson Beach on the Gulf of Mexico. Our beach cottage is on a canal with direct access to the Gulf less than a minute away! Sit out on the lanai and relax as the sun sets over the Gulf. The interior lends itself well to a romantic getaway or a fun group atmosphere with an open floor plan connecting the kitchen, dining room, and living room. All have water views.
There are 2 bedrooms and 2 baths. The master bedroom is a large space with a king size bed, ample furniture, and a large closet. The guest bedroom has two twin beds that can be pushed together to make a king when needed. A day bed off the dining area completes the sleeping accommodations, suitable for kids. The kitchen is fully equipped with open counter space and an island bar for additional seating.

Quiet and peaceful stay at quintessential Florida bungalow

This adorable cottage had everything I needed for a restful 10 day stay. Highlights included jumping fish and a visiting Anhinga sunning on the dock. Host went out of his way to make me feel welcome on arrival and there were lots of personal touches like lavender antibacterial soup that were no doubt those of the hostess.

Perfect for the fisherman in your life!

This property was right on the canal! My family loved the fishing and the quiet. John was a pleasure to work with and was always available if needed. (Which we didn’t because it was exactly what was posted)

Nice canal, close to the Gulf

We enjoyed our week at the “Hudson Beach home”. It was very comfortable & had everything we needed. Fun catching snapper & catfish off the floating dock! We loved having our boat right at the dock in the backyard! The owner & the neighbors were very nice.

A very cozy home on the Canal, peaceful and quiet. Dolphins swam up and down the canal every day we were there. The home had everything we needed and was great. We plan on staying here again later in the year. Thanks for a great experience

Great Stay!

We had a great time in Hudson, FL. This property was great for us and our dog. The owners met and showed us around house and gave key. Super friendly. Got to see a dolphin as it came right to the boat dock. Made the trip even better! Only one set of neighbors were beside us and they were friendly as well. Will hopefully be back soon.

Spacious canal-front home with beautiful view of the gulf and Hudson Beach.

Definitely my best VRBO rental experience ever. The owners met me at the property to do a walk through and give me suggestions of things to do in the area. The home was even better than described. Sitting on the patio or dock in the evening provided such peaceful and beautiful views that I never wanted to leave. Will definitely return next year!
