Wonderful property, close to the beach but was private also. I would recommend this property.

Kathy was very nice and welcoming, the house was clean and loved the area. The main living area is on the second floor, something to consider if stairs are a difficulty. I would love to stay here again.

Great location for a girls getaway

My friends and I had a reunion in Miramar Beach, and this we the perfect house for the 7 of us. There were plenty of beds and bathrooms, and the kitchen met our needs for breakfasts and lunches. The location was great for walking or driving a short distance to some local restaurants for dinner, and the beach service was a nice bonus. I would totally stay there again.

Property was clean and accommodating for our family.

This community is our home away from home. This was our 4th home within cottage retreat that we have stayed at. The house had all the amenities that you need to relax and enjoy vacation. The only thing that took adjustment was a reverse floor plan with the kitchen on the upstairs.

My family and I enjoyed our stay on Cottage Row. The house was clean and true to the pictures online. The small community is clean, quiet, and close to several restaurants. The beautiful, white sand of the Gulf is a short two minute walk across the street. The community pool is well maintained and we enjoyed meeting folks from all over the US.
