The host was very accommodating and friendly. The house was cozy and had all the essentials and more; the fenced yard was perfect for our fur baby, Giz. The property was close to downtown and to a dog beach. We will likely stay there again.

Such a lovely bungalow close to everything that you might want or need while visiting the area.
This is a cute older home. It is in a quiet residential neighborhood but just a couple blocks from restaurants and a grocery store. The home is also more spacious inside than you would guess just by looking at the outside photos. Finding a rental to accept our 2 large dogs was difficult. We were fortunate to find this little gem. Cindy was very responsive and provided everything we needed. Something not mentioned in the listing was that there were even beach towels, Boogie boards, and a few other beach toys provided.
The overall house was very clean, but the beds weren't very comfy. The AC had troubles keeping up with the Florida heat, but we were only there to sleep so it wasn't a big deal. There was quite a bit of glass in the yard that we had to pick up because we had our dogs with us and didn't want them to get injured. Other than minor issues we had a great stay. Close to parks and easy walking distance from great restaurants. It was a 20 min drive to Pensacola beach.

Thank you for your feedback and I will investigate the glass youve mentioned. No one has made me aware of that, so thank you
Loved it! Perfect location, quiet neighborhood, adorable roomy cottage, beautifully landscaped front and backyard- great for dogs and kids. Walk a couple of blocks to restaurants and coffee shop, 5 min drive to downtown, and less than 15 min to Pensacola beach (the drive is beautiful crossing over 3 bridges). Easy check in and out and responsive host. Will be back!
Loved our time here! The check in process was super easy, had everything we needed and reasonably distanced from things to do. I also loved it being dog friendly and the home was complete with some dog friendly items, including toys, which we had actually forgotten to bring.
Loved having you and your family over Christmas. Please come back and see us anytime. Lilly had a field day smelling all over the house for her furry friends.
We felt comfortable and the neighborhood was great. We took many long walks and the location was close to the beach, stores, downtown and restaurants. We would like to visit again.

Why they chose this property
I purchased this property primarily to be directly behind my elderly mom. She's 89 years young and going strong but I like being very close to her. This is my personal home but I rent it out to others so they may experience our beautiful East Pensacola Heights neighborhood.
What makes this property unique
There is a great back yard fully equipped with Bar-B-Que and patio furniture. Walking distance to the bayou, if you'd like to kayak, relax by the water and see the beautiful sunsets. My brother also has a "Food Forest" garden in the yard directly behind. So mossy over and say hello, he'll give you a tour.
