About this property
Cute Beach Cottage ~ Steps to Pier Park and the Beach ~ Great Value!
Just a few houses back from the sand and the St. Augustine Beach fishing pier, Laughing Gull Cottage is a single-level beach home built for the kind of trip where the water is a short walk away and the day stays uncomplicated. It is a freestanding cottage, not a unit in a building, so you get your own front door, your own yard, and a quiet spot to come back to between beach runs.
The floor plan is easy to live in. Two bedrooms sleep up to four: one holds a queen bed, the other a double. There is one full bathroom, plus a living room, a dining area, and a full kitchen, all spread across a single 700 square foot level with no stairs to manage. The kitchen is stocked for real cooking, with a full-size refrigerator, stove and oven, microwave, coffee maker, toaster, and the cookware, dishes, and utensils you need to put a meal together after a long afternoon outside.
Outdoors is part of the appeal. A covered patio gives you shade for morning coffee, the backyard is fully fenced, and a one-car garage means your boards, chairs, and sandy gear have somewhere to live between trips to the beach. Inside you will also find an in-home washer and dryer, Wi-Fi, cable and satellite TV, central air and heat, and linens and towels provided. The cottage is pet-friendly, and the fenced yard makes it an easy choice for travelers bringing a dog. Pets are welcome for an additional pet fee.
The setting is the draw. St. Augustine Beach Pier Park is close by, with volleyball, a splash park, the Wednesday farmers market, and the summer Music by the Sea concerts, and restaurants and shops sit within an easy walk. When you want a change of pace, historic downtown St. Augustine is a short drive for ghost tours, the old fort, and dinner along the bay.
At a glance - 2 bedrooms (queen and double) - 1 full bathroom - Sleeps up to 4 - 700 square feet, single level - Fenced yard, covered patio, one-car garage - Pet-friendly, washer and dryer, full kitchen

The home was in a great location with easy access to the beach, state park, and restaurants. It is a nice quiet neighborhood. The space was clean and had a lot of great amenities like a washer and dryer. We will definitely be back!
We really enjoyed our time at the beach cottage. It was conveniently located to many restaurants which were easy to walk to in the evening. As well as the beach and other shops. If you want to be able to park your car and get around definitely a great place to start.
Loved the property! Everything was clean on arrival and entry instructions were easily understood. The location was wonderful and walking distance to many restaurants! The only complaints I have were the beach access being closed that was closest to the house and no TVs in the bedrooms. Both things weren’t big deals though. Will deff be back for another trip to St. Augustine!
We chose this house because it was close to the beach and allowed our four dogs. The bedrooms were comfortable. The house was clean except for small dead bugs on all of the window seals and dead bugs behind the couch on the floor. We vacuumed up the dead bugs on the window seal in the living room. I would have given this house a five stars if it wasn't for the dead bugs left in the house. I realize this is Florida and there are lots of bugs but a quick vacuum would have taken care of this. We did enjoy our stay very much and would return to this property.
We had a great stay! Warm weather and lots of sun! Two suggestions- the primary bedroom needs a new bed and call an exterminator regarding the ants. Otherwise great stay!
My wife & I are more than happy with the our stay at this property. Cottage was clean and in a wonderful location. It is a short walk to the beach and wonderful great restaurants.
We were able to find everything we needed within walking distance. Beach access supper close and the house was clean with all of the supplies you needed. Would definitely stay here again.
This was a very nice and simple place to stay at SAB. Very clean in comparison to others we have rented. Great patio, located near pier and several good restaurants. Nice, early established neighborhood. Highly recommend!
It was a very nice place. Close to beach. Able to walk to restaurant. Not to far from historical Saint Augustine. When we come back would rent this place again
Cute little cottage close to the beach & many great restaurants. Short drive in to St Augustine. My only suggestion is they could use some new outdoor furniture for the porch and lovely back patio.
Clean little cottage in the perfect location. Very short walk to the beach, restaurants, etc, and a quick drive over to St Augustine. Fenced yard was perfect for our pups and the neighbors were lovely. We would definitely rent again.
Can't beat the location. Very nice little house with privacy in the back yard. We had a minor issue and the response from the rental people was excellent.
This little cottage was clean and comfortable. This home could use some new living room furniture. Great location to dinning and the ocean. I had a couple of correspondences with the owner and Marty was quick to respond and answered all of my questions. Would definitely stay here again!
