Adorable Cottage Just Steps From the Sand with Free WiFi and Shared Pool
If you got any closer to the sparkling sands of the Gulf of Mexico, you’d be in the water. This sweet little cottage boasts a perfect location in the middle of everything Indian Rocks Beach has to offer. Outside, you’ll find a friendly front patio with Adirondack chairs and a shared pool. Inside the cottage, you’ll find colorful, beachy decor in the living room, which features comfortable seating and a flatscreen TV for all your entertainment needs. Prepare a snack for the beach or something more substantial in the adjacent kitchen, complete with colorful cookware and everything you need to get creative. If you don’t feel like cooking, you’re walking distance to lots of popular beach bars and restaurants-just stake your spot in time for sunset, because it’ll likely be one to remember.

We love the Blue Heron cottages. We had everything we needed for the two of us and the location is perfect! The cottage is comfortable with reserved parking. Book us for next year!

Location on the beach was fantastic. Loved the individual single level cottage style. Very nicely decorated and appointed for 4 people. Just be prepared for no washer and dryer and dish washer.

The cottage was just adorable. All of my family and friends who visited fell in love with it. Beach access and pool were icing on the cake. I will definitely recommend to anyone looking for a quiet beach getaway.

Great place to stay, I wanted to be near the beach and this was the perfect distance for walking to the beach. We stayed for 1 week and had a great Anniversary. Very clean, beds were comfortable, kitchen a little small but that really isn’t a problem when on vacation. The grill was definitely nice to have.

Enjoyed the cottage life so much. Easy access to beach. Pool very refreshing. And the cottage itself was darling. 10/10 would stay again. One thing was that I contacted you and asked if there was beach chairs and you told me no, so we spent $65 on chairs and $15 on beach floaties and next day found shed behind cottage that had everything that we needed.

From the moment we walked in we loved how cozy and comfortable we felt. Being so close to the beach was the best!

Such a cute cottage! It was perfect for me and my 6 and 9 year olds. You walk out of the front door and right down the path to both the pool and the beach. The shed out back had a variety of beach and pool toys and even a cart to bring everything with you! The space inside was just enough and if you needed to spread out, the front porch with it’s Adirondack chairs was ideal.
The only challenges we experienced were a lack of towel racks and the oven. There was a stand outside for beach towels, but that became an issue when it rained. And the bathroom did not provide many options for hanging towels, bathing suits, etc. The one other issue was the smoke detector kept going off when the oven door was opened so the door to the cottage had to be opened when the oven door was. Not a game changer just an inconvenience.
All in all… a great time!

Location to the beach perfect, home well maintained and furnished with all you need! Will be back!
Rene W.Jun 2022
Comfortable, quiet, movies and pizza, plus daily beach walks and swimming. Forgot something at the house? Just walk back. The only worry is “will the tide reach my chair?” 🙂

Private and close to beach

From the minute you turn into the little cottage community your reaction will be “oh my goodness this is perfect”. The little hidden gem is perfect in every way. From the palm trees to the private path to the beach…it’s the perfect place to stay to escape life for a while. Our family loved cottage #6. Provided everything we needed and more (check the shed behind the cottage for all the beach gear you need). It’s decorated impeccably, clean and comfortable. Enjoyed coffee on the front porch. Many restaurants within walking distance. We will be back!
