Escape to Nature: Lakefront Jay Cottage w/ Views!
Clear your mind, restore your work-life balance, and disconnect to reconnect at this peaceful 2-bedroom, 2-bath cottage nestled in the outskirts of the Florida panhandle. While the vacation rental itself boasts plenty of charm — including lakefront views and modern touches — the scenic beauty of Pitnic Lake awaits just steps away. Make use of the provided kayak, canoe, and fishing boat, or explore on land. Come home to relax on the wraparound porch, perfect for birdwatching and sunset viewing.

Rest and relaxation at it's finest
Beautiful property, no noises around other than the chickens, ducks and turkeys. Great place to just kick back and relax, throw a fishing line out, read a book, watch the birds, whatever makes you happy to relax to. Highly recommend the place and we will be back.
