Our stay was so relaxing. Everything we needed was there and it was only a few minutes' walk to the beach. We enjoyed a quiet night by the fire and relaxed on the back patio with the lights listening to music. It was a perfect spot for a getaway. We brought our dog and the fenced in back yard was perfect for him. Everything was very clean and so comfortable! We definitely plan to stay here again! If you want a cozy quiet place to stay this is it!

The Sea Turtle Cottage is warm and welcoming, cute, cozy and comfortable. Decorated in a seaside motif, the cottage has a feel to it as if was your very own. Owner Carolyn and manager Kim provide everything one could possibly want, and the house is impeccably clean. The screened-in patio is a delightful place to enjoy morning coffee or an evening glass of wine. Outside is a gas grill, seating area and fenced yard. It’s also a great place for pets, as the house has a dog bed, dog bowl, and even a large cat-gym. It’s an easy walk to the beach and easy drive to area restaurants, pharmacy, downtown shopping and the Mississippi Aquarium. Any communication of mine was answered almost immediately. Clearly, the renter’s comfort is a priority. I’ll be back!
Everything in the kitchen was fired up and ready to cook (Conecuh sausage and Mary B’s frozen biscuits available at Rouse’s!)
