About this cottage rental
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 and recently decorated (We also own Key Lime Cottage next door - VRBO 33828). 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 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 gem of a 3-bedroom, 2-bath cottage and its charming twin cottage next door, Key Lime Cottage (VRBO listing #33828) 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 an uncrowded Blue Wave certified beach known for high dunes, white sand, and emerald water where you can relax and set up your beach gear. Good Life Cottage is so close to the beach and our deeded beach access, there is no need for shuttles, golf carts, or parking (which is quite limited during peak seasons). In addition to our deeded beach access, 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. There's no need to stay inside on a rainy afternoon because you can eat, drink, read, play games, and do puzzles on the porch, 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, Good Life Cottage 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 cottages to feel like a comfortable and very well equipped beach homes rather than rentals. WIth over 20 years of experience, we've learned what guests need and want for a high-quality and carefree vacation. 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 common area and king bedroom open 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 cable), 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 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, 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 twin bed, and the other has two twin beds that can be kept separate or put together to serve similar to a king-size bed). There is a second bathroom with a full bath/shower and travertine floor. 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 also 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 are sincerely committed to our goal of helping you make memories to last a life time. Although the cottage looks wonderful, even more important to us is that our guests feel relaxed, comfortable, and happy when at the cottage. The following feedback from a guest reflects how our guests feel at the cottage: 'Just wanted to let you know what a great time we had at 'Ahhh, The Good Life'...It was nice to take the time and recharge. We brought work with us from the office and just threw the laptop and briefcases in the closet the moment we unpacked and then tossed them back in the car when we left! Much more fun to figure out origami and do puzzles. The pressing order of each day was whether to go to the pool or beach before lunch...We'll definitely return and tell our friends about your fabulous place. Thanks!' ' 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 this house. Great location, near beach but away from crowds. Loved biking in all directions. House is in great shape, with nice updates and furniture. My family thoroughly enjoyed the property.

My family enjoyed our stay. It was a nice quiet location with close proximity to the beach and the pool and hot tub were always quiet too. Close to the grocery so we mostly cooked in the well supplied kitchen in between walks to the beach and back to the pool.

We went to this cottage at Camp Creek for a three day girls weekend and we had a fabulous time! The cottage is so cute and had everything we needed. It was just a short walk to the beach and the beach was not too crowded. Paula was wonderful communicating about all the details. I would definitely go back!

Wonderful stay at The Good Life 😊 Easy to communicate with the property management company, but disappointed they would t provide additional bath linens when requested. Thanks for a great week!

Our time at Good Life was perfect! We loved it so much that we decided to extend our vacation while we were there. My husband, myself, and our 5 and 2 year old fit very comfortably in the house.
The completely updated kitchen was a big surprise when we checked in. It is absolutely beautiful and completely stocked. Truly, this was the best stocked rental that I have ever stayed at. The management company was also very responsive to any request/minor issues we had during our stay.
The beach was a very short walk from the cottage. We stayed at the end of April and the beach was almost empty.
We are already planning out trip for next year! Thank you Paula for such an incredible rental property, we plan to return for years to come!

My family and I had a wonderful time staying in the cottage. The cottage is clean and renovated with all the amenities you could need. And it is conveniently located to everything that you need… While also not right in the middle of the busy areas. We look forward to going back again soon!

This cottage was very nice and perfect for our family, so kudos to the owners. The only reason why it’s not getting a 5 star rating is because of the 9:00a check out.
5.0
Perfect house for our family of 4. Easy access to the beach and short drive/bike ride to the nearby towns of Seacrest, Alys Beach, etc. Pool and hot tub are right around the corner and convenient for quick dips. Paula provided great instructions and the Rental company was easy to work with.
5.0
This sweet place was exactly as represented! Our party of five included two grandmas, mom and dad and our 12 year old son. The kitchen was super functional for simple dinners, breakfasts and wine and cheese! The beach toys, chairs, boogie boards and bags made the short walk to the beach easy and enjoyable. The communication with the host was professional, friendly and prompt. We would absolutely stay again!

Property was great, location was awesome, we rented bikes from peddlers and have them delivered for the week to get around, beach was really close, new kitchen and floors really wowed us since the listing pics hadn’t been updated it was a great surprise! Well decorated, very homey and clean. More than enough beds and rooms to spread out, pool, hot tub, and cute back patio to sit and drink your morning coffee. We would definitely stay again.
5.0
My husband and I so enjoyed our stay at Paula’s cottage. The home is exactly as described, and the location is super convenient. It’s a quick walk to the beach and a short bike ride to several restaurants and shops. Paula is a wonderful host who has thought of everything and is very easy to communicate with. Highly recommend!

My family thoroughly enjoyed staying here for our beach vacation. The owner, Paula, and the property management company were both great to work with. The community where this house is located was so peaceful and relaxing. The house is well-stocked with anything one may need during their stay, including board games, beach toys, and beach supplies. We could've left half our stuff at home! Also, if you intend to rent a beach chair amd umbrella set up, I have to commend Dillon's Beach Service which services this location. They were so polite and laid back to work with, which had not always been our experience with other beach vendors along 30A in years past. We would definitely recommend this property to others looking to stay in this area.

This Cottage was beautiful. Well stocked and ready for a family. Paula put thought into all details. We especially appreciated all the “extras” like the games, puzzles, and all the beach toys and chairs. It was nice to not have to bring all of that with us. We enjoyed the pool and evenings on the porch. Walking distance to the beach is short and easy to manage. The cottage is situated just a few steps from the pool but far enough away to avoid all the sounds.
Great stay at a beautiful home. Owner very kind and quick to respond.

We had a great stay - Paula was warm and communicative, and answered all my questions immediately. The cottage was exactly what I was looking for - well-stocked, ideally located, super short walk to the beach. I love the shady walkway and porch where we read and ate breakfast outside. The pool was perfect for the afternoons, and the community is quiet and feels private. Great place - we'll come back!

We had a great week staying in The Good Life cottage. The cottage was very clean and had a great layout for our family. We were able to cook any meal we’d like with the stocked kitchen. We spent a lot of time on the covered porch and at the pool, which was never crowded. The walk to the beach was easy with our kids in tow. We would definitely book this property again!
5.0
We loved staying at the cottage! It was beautiful, clean, and it had everything we needed!
We really loved spending time on the back porch when we had down time and when it was raining. I enjoyed my morning coffee out there too! Loved how close it was to the pool!
We would love to come back again and hope to next year!

We can hardly express how much we enjoyed our week-long stay at The Good Life cottage (#71) in the Camp Creek cottages. The cottage inside is Old Florida charming with high ceilings, floor-length windows and a nice floor plan for accommodating up to 7 people. The furnishings and decor are excellent and in good taste, and it is the best equipped of any vacation rental we have ever encountered. The host seems to have thought of everything, including books, puzzles, games, beach toys and every small appliance and kitchen tool you are likely to need. The setting is lovely and private with the comfortable back porch facing a shady path leading to the centrally located swimming pool. From the cottages, it’s only a short walk to the beach, which never seemed crowded. We especially liked that the surrounding buildings are fairly low key with none of those giant high rises nearby. And yet the very fancy communities of Rosemary Beach and Alys Beach are only a short drive away. Finally, the host was very responsive to the few questions we had about local services. We will highly recommend this cottage and it’s host and we hope to return for another visit.

Unfortunately, we had to cancel when we ended up having a big family group, along with pets, join our vacation trip. Paula was great to work with and we hope to visit in the future!

This was the perfect little cottage by the ocean! Spent evenings on the back porch just relaxing. The only thing I would add would be one or two ceiling fans on the back porch.
Thank you for making this a wonderful trip!

Spring Break on 30A is always enjoyable. We have stayed in several cottages in The Cottages of Camp Creek. The location is great as Alys, Seacrest and Rosemary are all a short bike ride away. Beach access is a short walk away. The Good Life cottage was outstanding. We found the cottage to be clean and in good repair. The pool and hot tub are a great perk to the site. While we didn’t need to make contact with the property manager we always knew they were just a phone call or email away. I highly recommend vacationers to consider this cottage for their family get-away.

Three girlfriends and I rented this property for a girls trip and had the best time. House was immaculate and had everything we needed. Loved the privacy of the back porch area. Beach is close and the house has chairs stocked. We packed a foldable wagon and it worked out great. Had an issue with the internet but the hosts were quick to respond. Would recommend this place to anyone!

Just got back from an incredible stay - somehow, the home was even better than the pictures! The space itself is quite large and offers abundant places to sit back and enjoy a book. We really appreciated the high quality furnishings; the home truly felt like a coastal escape out of a magazine. We also enjoyed the spacious porch and large community pool. The beach was easy to access and only a 5 minute walk. Additionally, we appreciated the beach chairs, as well as the board games for a rainy day activity.
Paula and Southern Vacation rentals made the stay clean and perfect, seriously couldn’t ask for more. If you have the chance to book this place, do it!

We really enjoyed our stay at The Good Life. It was perfect for our family of 6. As a mama, all the extra hooks were amazing! All the things hhyou would want for a kitchen were there and the games provided were a huge plus! We taught our kiddos Yahtzee and it’s their new favorite. The walk to the beach was perfect and the pool location was great! Our only complaint was a 9am checkout. That’s early for a big family on vacation.

The property was perfect as a fall break getaway for our family of six. It was clean and exactly as described. Pool was steps away and easy access to the beach. The porch was also great for reading and relaxing. We will definitely look to book again when we return to the area.

This was our first time staying in the 30A area. We were looking to stay away from crowds and enjoy some relaxing family time. The cottage is in a quiet neighborhood, the pool is super close, and the beach is just a short 5 minute walk away.
We had some rainy weather during our time there but were content hanging out at the cottage. There were games and books available and we watched movies on the smart tv in the living room. The cottage is very homey and we all felt very comfortable and relaxed there. Also, we were able to head over to the pool between rain showers which was great.
The kitchen was stocked nicely, we especially liked the griddle and electric skillet for quick meals and the provided grill for dinner.
Paula, the host of the property, had great communication before and during our stay. The house was not as clean as we would have liked and expected with the great reviews when we arrived. We also had a small issue with the grill. Paula was quick to respond and understanding. We were taken care of and moved on to enjoy the rest of our vacation! We are already planning a return trip next year :)
