About this property

Pet Friendly Cottage steps to the Gulf with private dock on the Intercoastal

Cutest two bedroom cottage in Indian Shores. The white sands of the Gulf are 200 steps away. Walk through nature trail to your own private dock on the inter-coastal.

Our home is pet friendly, but please note there is an additional fee for cleaning up the additional pet hair.

Plus, if you are looking for a larger group(multiple families) - book our stilt home on the property(1825488) and have additional space.

The cottage has been renovated - kitchen has new quartz countertop, new glass top oven, with all rooms being painted and new ceiling fans installed. The cottage has one bedroom with a queen size bed, and a second bedroom with twin over full bunk bed. Plus, enjoy the spacious screened in porch.

We have a full shower and a washer and dryer for your exclusive use.

After an exhilarating day on the beach, use the outside access door to go straight into the bathroom and get ready for a fun night of ice cream, a block away, or a nice dinner at one of the many surrounding restaurants.

Enjoy strolling through the mangrove nature preserve to our back yard - where there is a private dock on the intercoastal - perfect for fishing, bird watching, dolphin watching, or just relaxing and reading a book.

If you prefer a night in, enjoy making a home cooked meal in our full kitchen and enjoy your cuisine on the screened-in back porch.

We are only a few minutes' walk away from a water sports rental company, delicious restaurants, and local gift store.

Our address is 19735 Gulf Blvd, Indian Shores

Location!!
My run buddy and I went to see our friends there. This was the perfect fit for us to enjoy the beach. My friend and I enjoyed the quiet and easy access to beach. Lots of amenities were available as we flew in. Makes it nicer not to have to grab things at the store. We LOVED every evening going to sit at the bay after sunset.

Great location!
We liked this rental. The beach entrance was right across the street and was located in a great area. The family behind us were very friendly. The beds were comfortable as were the sheets and towels. There was a beach wagon, toys, and chairs. We were going to attempt the kayak but we spent most of our time on the beach with the kids. Bring bug spray for the nature trail if mosquitoes love you like they love us. 😆 We watched Netflix on the living room tv but we didn’t spend much time in the room. We wer usually at the beach or on the screened in back porch, which we loved!

Perfect location - very short walk to the beach. Walking location to ice cream shop and store to be able to get supplies. The dock and fishing were fun too ! Beds comfortable!

This cottage was just what was advertised and what we asked for. Karen was very quick to respond to any questions we had. There was a small repair that was needed to the dock and they came out quickly to fix it. Would definitely recommend this if you're looking for a quiet getaway!

Great Beach Cottage with dock on intercoastal waters
Very nice and clean with nice furniture and very roomy for the size! Everything you need - just like home, including Washer/Dryer, gas grill, etc. Across the street from public beach access. Mangrove behind with walk to deck on water. Very reasonable rate! Located on the scenic gulf road that runs along the fabulous white sand beach between Clearwater & St Pete Beach. If you have never been to this area check it out. A lot of the old Florida charm is still there!

Great Winter Get Away!
Wonderful location, walked the beach every morning. Adorable home, very clean and bright. Nice functional kitchen had everything we needed (again very clean) Washer and dryer on property were a bonus. Bedrooms were clean and comfortable. We enjoyed walking to the beach and to the private intercoastal waters behind the property. Lots of places to eat in a walkable and within a short drive. Owners were wonderful, very responsive. Nice little place for a winter get away!

Relocation haven
The location is superb. It is literally across the street from the beach. The area is safe, a bit noisy with traffic and gardeners during the day but steps away from several restaurants, ice cream and even a miniature golf spot. The cottage has a fully stocked kitchen, there are bikes to ride and plenty of beach equipment. The Mangrove behind the cottage is a great place to relax and read a book. My husband and I highly recommend and we were sad to leave. It was a good find!
