The location is perfect! Short walk to the beach and Thomas donuts next door is a wonderful plus! The house is amazing! Everything you need for a wonderful vacation!! We have stayed here twice and never been disappointed! Canât wait for the next trip!!
Had a little hiccup when arrived AC was out on 2nd level where bedrooms were for first night but 1st level was good, so all slept there. Al was able to get tech there next day and all was great!!We love this property and will be back, LORD willing for a third stay!!!
I stayed here 7 years ago and had no issues. This time I was very disappointed when I arrived. It was very apparent the no one had cleaned the property prior to our arrival. None of the beds were made up. Sheets were left in the washing machine after a cycle had been run and they had soured. Had to be rewashed. There was rodent feces all in the folds of the pull-out sofa in the living room. I didnât bother to contact anyone because I can wash laundry and make beds myself and simply just wanted to unpack and relax. That couch needs to be burned. Not enough toilet paper in the houseâŠbecause it was apparent housekeeping had not showed up prior to us checking in at 4:00PM. Outdoor storage was a mess! Overall the property needs be be updated. Great location in PCB however.
We stay in this house every year and have been for several years. One of the reasons is that they let us bring our dog. The house is very comfy, not fussy. Itâs not appointed with all the bells and whistles like some higher priced places. But we like that Because we feel very comfortable there
There were 3 generations of us and we all loved the house and area. We just walked across the street and there was the beautiful ocean. The house was roomy and comfortable. Hope to go again.
Everything was just like the description says. The sleeping arrangements worked out perfectly for our group. Would highly recommend this rental to friends/family.
Ten Days of great fun and enjoyment from the thirty somethings with small pooches to Gramps aged 97 we had a great time at the beach! Great Location with groceries a block away and the famous Thomas Donut shop within easy reach. Perfect Beach right across the street and no obstructing homes to block the view of the water! All Good. Five Stars.
Our family loves this home because it is so comfy. It doesn't have all the fancy things that newer homes or condos have but that's perfect for us and our 2 dogs! The owner is very resposive and cordial. We've been staying here for years and will contnue to return each year. The view is beautiful of the beach and ocean! Just sit in the front yard and take it all in!
The location of the house canât be beat. It was so nice being directly across from the beach access. The house was clean and equipped with everything you need. My only real issue was that there did not appear to be fire alarms in the bedrooms, which is an issue when you have your small child sleeping alone in a room with door closed. Overall, we had a great trip and we would stay again. Thank you!
I had the great fortune of staying in this house with my family and mother-in-law in June! What a wonderful relaxing time. It was very hard to leave. The proximity to the ocean made our vacation a dream come true. The owners were very easy to get a hold of and if there was any issue they sent someone immediately to take care of it. We had a great time, and would definitely stay here again! What a gem!
Place was great and clean, location perfect, only gripe is the water system needs to be looked at as both showers hot water goes from hot to cold, then hot to cold and so on.
Had a great time! House could use some repairs. Roof leaked, a/c vents dripped water, direct TV was intermittent with service and the back door was extremely hard to open and close!
This is an older house but met our needs. Originally my son-in-law, daughter, and son were supposed to come with me but it wound up just being our daughter that got to come. The king sized bed was very comfortable ( I would love the mattress for my own!). The only thing I didnât like was the parking. There isnât a lot of room if you have two vehicles. This house is next door to Thomas donuts which was a plus! While we didnât get donuts we did walk over one evening for ice cream and ordered a pizza another evening( best pizza ever!). It is also at the quieter end of Front Beach Road so beach isnât as crowded and thereâs less traffic.Overall a very nice place to stay.
Overall,we had a great stay. Owner allowed an early check in since the cleaning staff had already completed, which we greatly appreciated. The house was nice, well stocked, and accomodated our party of 4. All bedrooms are upstairs (which I wasnt aware of) so if you have any guests with limited mobility, beware. I am only 5 weeks post op hip replacement, so the stairs were challenging. The upstairs bedrooms were difficult to cool, so consider bringing fans to help. Location is good. Owner was having new metal roof installed during our stay, so things were in disarray on the exterior for our first two days, but nothing that prevented us from enjoying the beach. The front yard and sunroom were super nice. This is an older home and does have some quirky details that you'll need to know about (hot water regulating for showers, bedroom ceiling fan) but the owner communicated those things to us and we didn't have any issues. We would stay here again! Thanks again Mr. Chamberlain for letting us stay at your lovely cottage!
We moved to the northern Virginia area in 1985 after spending 4 and 12 (respectively) great years in Seattle. We met in 1981 and both had connections to Panama City Beach, Florida. Al lived in Mobile, Alabama in the â60s and traveled to PCB for vacation and his son graduated from Florida State in the nineties, which brought us back; Ginger grew up between Birmingham, Alabama and Seattle, Washington and always traveled to PCB to visit family living in the area. It seemed to be a no brainer to choose this area for our vacation home. We came upon this Beautiful Historic Cottage in 2002 after checking every beach property from Fort Morgan to Apalachicola - some 200 miles. We were truly blessed when we found this beautiful spot on Godâs great earth. Ginger passed away on October 4, 2019 after a long battle with Cancer, she is so dearly missed every day.
We love the beauty of this area. The weather is delightful. The people are friendly and welcoming. Just a beautiful place to come. Plus our puppies love it here!
