About this cottage rental
Situated in Seacrest, this attractive cottage for $387 per night is a fantastic option for your next break. Note that someone at least 25 years old must be staying at this property throughout the entire booking and, although we personally enjoy pets, no pets are allowed in the cottage because we have family and guests with severe pet allergies. Imagine settling into a lovely cottage with a large covered porch, less than a minute walk from a big community pool, and an easy 5 minute walk to a deeded beach access where you can relax and set up your beach gear - all at a reasonable rate. You may be wondering why we can offer great rates even though our cottages are beautifully, recently renovated (We also own the Good Life Cottage next door - VRBO Listing 25160). There is no catch or downside - that's why we get such reviews. We can offer great rates because our cottages have been paid off for quite a while and we simply take pride in sharing our cottages and making high-quality vacations available to guests so that they can make memories with the people they love - and love makes the world go 'round, right? We want our guests to walk into the cottages and immediately think "Wow, we sure are lucky we found this place!" Not surprisingly, we have many happy return guests. A word to the wise - Note that VRBO's algorithm for calculating the "average nightly rate" is often significantly inaccurate so you'll need to plug in your exact dates when you want to compare the actual average nightly rates at different properties. When you do so, you'll see that our rates are among the best you'll find. LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION. This lovely 3-bedroom, 2-bath cottage and its equally charming twin cottage next door, The Good Life, are located at the Cottages at Camp Creek, a small, quiet, peaceful-even-during-peak-seasons, family-friendly coastal community of charming Old Florida style cottages with tin roofs and large covered front porches - perfect for relaxing any time of year. Nestled in the sand lush native dune environment with sand oaks and palmettos and far from fast food, high-rises, and highways, this cottage is only 200 yards (4-5 minute walk) from a Blue Wave certified beach known for high dunes, white sand, and emerald water. Key Lime Cottage is so close to the beach, there is no need for shuttles, golf carts, or parking (which is quite limited during peak seasons). In addition to our deeded beach access where you can set up and relax on the beach, the cottage is only 1/3 mile (15 minute walk) from a public beach access as well. The cottage has two private parking spaces next to the cottage (which makes it easy when carrying items between your car and the cottage). Located along Scenic 30A (a 15-mile winding beach road), this spacious and sunny one-story cottage is in a prime location, just steps from the pristine 7500 square foot pool yet not right on top of the pool so you can enjoy quiet and privacy on your large fully-furnished front porch that looks over a peaceful little yard surrounded by pretty native plants and trees. The large porch is particularly handy on rainy days when you want to be outside and enjoy the rain from the comfort of the porch, and it's great to have the pool closeby, especiallly on days when the ocean is too rough for swimming. As you can see from the location map, Key Lime is also one of the larger one-story cottages and is one of the closest cottages to the beach, with the Timpoochee Trail - a 17-mile paved walking, running and biking trail - across the street. As you can see from our guests' reviews, we take very good care of our guests and cottages, and we furnish and equip our cottage to feel like a comfortable and very well equipped beach home rather than a vacation rental. A travel writer who stayed at our cottages for a wedding wrote a newspaper article saying that our cottages are "tastefully decorated with many personal touches and immaculate." Furnished in a casual and modern beach cottage style, the dining and living area opens to a large porch furnished as an outdoor room with a dining area, as well as a comfortable seating area by a small private yard with a private gas grill. The living room (with large flat screen smart TV for watching your own Netflix, Hulu, Amazon Prime, etc., as well as TV channels), dining area, and fully-equipped kitchen have hardwood floors, and plenty of comfortable seating for relaxing, reading or watching movies, playing games, and doing puzzles together. We also provide free wireless Internet. The newly renovated kitchen features natural warm wood cabinets, quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, and ample storage. The cabinets and drawers are filled with plenty of dishes, glasses, silverware, cookware, and more (including a crockpot, waffle maker, electric grill, toaster, blender) and fun plastic beachy plates, bowls, and glasses. You'll have everything you need to feed 2 or 12 people! There is a full-size dishwasher, washer, and dryer at the cottage. Just so you know that we keep our cottages up-to-date, in addition, the air conditioner/furnace and water heaters are new as well. Although you can't see these types of upgrades, you can certainly feel them! When you want time alone, retreat to the privacy of your bedroom decorated in a charming seaside style. All are comfortably furnished with high-quality fresh cotton quilts that are changed after every guest, smart TVs, and full length room-darkening drapes for our guests who like to sleep in or take a sweet nap in the afternoon. One bedroom has a king bed and a private travertine-tiled full bathroom. The two other bedrooms (one has a queen bed and the other has a bunk bed). There is a second bathroom with a travertine shower and travertine floors. We have many repeat guests because our guests appreciate the 'extra touches' and attention to detail that we provide in our cottages, We include beach chairs and plenty of puzzles, games, books and more for the youngest to oldest guests. We make it easy for our guests to stay organized by providing plenty of hooks on the walls in the bedrooms, bathrooms, and hallway; renovated closets with hanging spaces as well as cubbies for easy storage, and hampers in the bedrooms. We know these types of details matter, especially when travelling with families. As you can see from the top ratings from 70+ guests, we really, really care about our guests and do what we can to help make your vacation a happy and relaxing one. We have over 20 years of experience taking care of our guests, and we are sincerely committed to our goal of helping you make memories to last a life time. Although our cottages are beautifully designed, equally important to us is that our guests feel relaxed, comfortable, and happy when at the cottage. Available year-round. Large enough for multigenerational families, yet cozy enough for couples to enjoy special time alone together. Perfect for friends travelling together as well. Important Details: As noted above, we cannot have pets in the cottage beause we have family members and guests with serious pet allergies. At least one guest booking and staying at the cottage must be at least 25 years old because this is a family-friendly community. No smoking. Parking of RVs, motor boats, and jet skis are not allowed in this community. These rules are enforced by our association, as well as by the rental agency, to ensure that all guests have a safe and relaxing vacation.

We loved everything about Key Lime Cottage! Paula was very responsive. We will be back

Key Lime Cottage had everything that my family of four needed to have an amazing Fall Break Getaway! The cottage was well appointed, very clean, and the location was perfect. The beach was gorgeous and not overly crowded. The property’s pool and hot tub a few steps away from the cottage were a huge hit with our kids. My husband and I enjoyed the setting of the cottage’s back deck among the landscaping. The owner made sure that we felt welcome, and we are already planning our next trip back! This place is a gem!

A group of friends and I stayed at the cottage and it was fantastic!! The location was perfect. Very close to the beach but also to a lot of restaurants. The cottage was very clean and had everything we needed. I would definitely stay here again or recommend to a friend!

Our stay at Key Lime was awesome. We were there for fall break week and everything was great.
Paula communicated with us as needed and was very helpful in recommendations on things to potentially do in the area. She is an amazing host (best one we've had in our vacation experiences). She's a very kind and personable individual.
There walk to the beach is easy and the pool is just steps away out of the backdoor. There are some beach chairs, toys and a cooler for your use.
The grocery store is just a few minutes away. Restaurants and shops are just a a short drive as well (Rosemary, Seacrest, Seagrove, and Grayton beaches all in this small stretch).
The listing is accurate and trustworthy.
We fully intend to return as this is a great family area and was quiet during our time in mid October.

Paula is a great host and has a great home. The walk to beach is very short and the beach is not crowded at all. The home was very clean and had enough room for all of us. I would stay here again for sure.

Our first trip to the area and the experience was great. Property was clean, well maintained and centrally located on 30A. Owner and management were easy and extremely helpful. Would recommend to others and we will consider this property next time we visit

Loved key Lime. It was still affordable when the other cottages have tripled in price. Close to pool and beach. Really enjoyed it and will come back.

We really enjoyed our stay at Key Lime. There was enough room for the 4 of us, the kitchen/living room area was well equipped and nicely updated. The beach was close but there’s a hefty set of stairs to get down to the beach. It’s exhausting if you have a lot of gear (which we did). That was just about the only negative. The master bed was very squeaky too. The pool is right outside the back door. It’s a great cottage overall.
5.0
Really enjoyed our first visit to 30A! This property was perfect for our family, great location, easy walk to beach (which was amazing), nice community pool, and very well appointed (beach chairs/equipment were nice enough and saved us from having to pack). First time in a long time that we never had to adjust the temperature in a rental property to make it cooler, A/C was great and we were comfortable the whole week (despite triple digit outside temps). Would definitely stay here again!

We stayed at Key Lim Cottage April 10-16. We felt at home the minute we walked through the door! The two full bathrooms and 3 bedrooms were more than enough space for my family of four. We enjoyed the beach everyday. We used Paula's beach chairs that she had in the cottage and hauled all of our other beach gear in a beach caddy, which I highly recommend if you have lots of stuff! (Head's up - there are steps to get down to the beach using the private access, so you probably won't be able to haul a wagon down the steps but some people kept the wagon at the top of the steps.) With mostly private residences on this deeded beach (aka no high rises!) it felt secluded, relaxing, and serene. No crowded beaches here! The pool was rather cold during our stay, so my kids did not want to swim - not sure if it is unheated or typically just that cold. But with the beach being as beautiful as it was, it was no loss for us!
We loved the surrounding area. It is a mix of established and redeveloping beach communities. The area between the cottage and Alys Beach is (re)developing so there is a lot of construction traffic during the day, and the pedestrian path is a little dicey, but we still walked it several times throughout our stay. Definitely check out Alys Beach and Rosemary Beach! Our favorite spots were The Old Florida Fish House, The Donut Hole, and The Hub.
Enjoy! We loved it!

We absolutely loved our stay at Key Lime. There were shops and restaurants within walking and biking distance. The beach was a short walk and was not crowded even though it was spring break. The location was perfect. The cottage is close enough to everything but not in the middle of everything for crazy traffic. It was very peaceful at night and made for many relaxing evenings. Paula has everything you need in the house. There is even a pasta maker. It was clean and well taken care of. We will definitely be back to Key lime Cottage!
5.0
Loved this cottage. It was away from the pool and very quiet! What I wanted. So glad that there was a Grill to prepare a Family Size meal. It was very clean. Limited supplies to start with but gave me time to not rush out and shop! Bed in Master very comfy to crash after a busy day. I’d stay again, think you’d be happy choosing this Cottage.
5.0
Our visit was nearly two years in the making with COVID cancellations, and it did not disappoint! Cottage had everything we needed to relax and feel right at home. The number of hooks for hanging towels, beach bags, etc. was so appreciated. The sugar sand brushes right off so we never felt like the house got sandy! Only drawback (and totally out of Paula’s control) is the amount of construction in the area. Currently (March 2022), the bike/pedestrian path to Alys and Rosemary beaches is a treacherous path through a construction site. Oh well, we still enjoyed sunsets every night on the nearby beach! And, we got our fill of nature at a couple of nearby state parks.

The property felted secluded and private although right in the heart of the 30A area. Close walk to the beach and lots of great shops and restaurants nearby.

First of all, this house is absolutely perfect. In a cute neighborhood, steps away from the pool, very short walk to the beach (a few minutes, tops) and very quiet. The floor plan is fantastic - there’s even a large closet in the queen guest room if you want to put a pack and play in there!
In terms of walkability, we walked to Alys beach often and it was an easy .5 mile trek. We went to The Hub often for dinner, which is a great spot with (or without!) kids with multiple restaurants and bars and some run around space.
We had everything we needed and Paula was hands down the best host we’ve ever stayed with. Thank you so much for our fantastic say, we hope to be back next year!
4.0
Paula is a great host/owner. Attentive and easy to reach. She emailed us personally before our trip began and the day before it ended. Simple reminders. Restaurant ideas. The house was in a good location. Private deeded beach access is a 2 minute walk away. I wouldn't recommend this spot for the elderly as the deeded beach access has a lot of stairs but for those that can easily handle the walk and stairs. It was great for us as a young family with a 5 year old. The pool was steps away, the house had a ton of games/puzzles and books that our son loved. The pool was nice in that each end a shallow end on either end of the pool. He called the walk to the pool or house from the beach 'walking through the jungle' because of all the trees. The size of the house was perfect for the 5 of us. It had copious amounts of plastic plates/cups for kids which was nice and everything you needed to cook. Wasn't as clean as we would have liked but the rental property and the owner were quick to respond. Both were very friendly and understanding.

The Key Lime Cottage was just the right place for our little family's vacation. We have two boys, 8 and 6. We enjoyed the pool a couple of nights, the lights in the pool were a fun thing that the boys loved. The walk to the beach is easy and we loved that it wasn't crowded. We appreciated the updates in the cottage. We enjoyed going on a run every morning with the boys riding bikes alongside us, it was safe and there is plenty of space on the pathways along 30A. We especially loved the Alys Beach and Rosemary areas… just loved the beautiful architecture and atmosphere.

Our family loves to stay here. Everything is clean, beautiful, and comfortable. The kitchen has everything you need. The pool is very close by. And the beach is a short walk away. I love the updates done to the property since we last stayed. So thankful for the opportunity to stay in this lovely community!

The cottage was a perfect size for our family and we loved the location. Paula, the owner, was great with communication throughout - prior to and during our stay. We will definitely be back.

Everything about this cottage was perfect. Paula thought of everything - even the things we didn’t think of. From beach toys (and extra beach bags), to coolers and pool floats.. . . Every single kitchen appliance you’d need, comfy beds and a zillion blankets (felt good after our sunburns kept us chilly indoors). The community was so quiet - so close to the pool but still felt secluded in the trees. The back porch was one of our favorite things! The beach was super super close!
Thank you Paula. We are already figuring out when we can come back down.

This property was exactly as advertised. A short distance to the beach, limited access to other beach goers so not crowded at all. Very nice property and very clean and updated

We loved this cottage. It was well stocked with towels, kitchen supplies, games, beach gear, etc... We loved the open layout and all the seating. Great privacy, tons of hooks to hang things, easy walk to the pool. Would 100% stay here again!

We had the best stay at Key Lime Cottage!! The location was great, just a short walk to the beach. The house was exactly as described with everything we needed. And we loved the proximity to the pool. The entire neighborhood was quiet and a perfect setting for our first time on 30A. Paula was an excellent host. Communication before our vacation and throughout the week was great. She went above and beyond the entire time. We would absolutely stay here again.
5.0
We had an absolutely amazing vacation staying at Key Lime Cove! The house was adorable and had everything we needed! We loved the back porch as well all the extras that are provided like sand toys, pool noodles, beach chairs, games, etc. While this is supposed to the "height" of the vacation season in 30A, we did NOT feel this staying here! The private beach access for the cottages was not crowded at all and we were able to be completely off on our own. My beach pictures look like we are on our private island! We have three kids who used the pool a ton and also never found that too crowded. With 3 kids and covid still a concern, we were looking to avoid crowds so this was absolutely the prefect location on 30A for our family! Paula was extremely responsive and helpful with any questions I had leading up the stay and the vacation rental company also checked on us as well! Can't recommend the property enough! We will definitely staying here again!

We loved our stay in the cottage, it was a short walk to the beach (even with two small kids) and very near the pool. The porch is a perfect place to relax or have game night. Great calm and happy atmosphere throughout the community and loved the deeded beach.

Me family enjoyed every bit of the stay at this place - 5 min walking distance to the beach, great house with all the amenities, great location to reach any other fun destinations. We even recommended this place to our friends!
5.0
The cottage is even lovelier than in the photos. The furnishings and detail were very nice quality and comfortable. Loved all the shade around the house, the porch and the location near the pool but not at the pool. The pool is fantastic! The only strange thing was there weren't any basic food items like salt, oil, etc that we usually find in a home. Maybe because of Covid but wish we'd have known ahead of time. We also rented bikes which made it so easy to ride into town to eat at La Crema, George's and Neat. The beach is just a 5 min walk and so lovely. Communication with Paula was easy and she was super responsive.

Great place to stay!!! Great pool and location is a short walk to the beach.
