We lost water due to a line breaking in town, host reimbursed us to cover our lunch that day even though the water was out of her control and without us asking. Host is very kind and responsive. Quite neighborhood.

Perfectly relaxing 😎

The cottage was much bigger than we needed. The upstairs would be great if you came with a larger family. Since it was just two of us, we only used the downstairs. It was clean, decorated beautifully and the layout was functional. The owners were friendly and immediately responsive. The location was great….one block from the beach. Enjoyed our time there very much! Thank you!

Great Cottage

This is a great house with plenty of space for our family of four and a couple friends. It's only four houses down from beach access so we could walk with all our gear in just a few minutes.

Close to the beach!

The house was almost brand new and well laid out. It also contained everything you could ask for, pots and pans, dishes, glasses, silverware, towels, etc. The fenced back yard was a real plus for our dog. There are many friendly dogs in the neighborhood as well as at the dog park. It is only a short walk to the beach and everyone is friendly. I would recommend this cottage to anyone considering a visit to the Mexico Beach area. The owner is easy to reach and a pleasure to talk with. John

Perfect Beach Getaway

We loved our stay! This was out first vacation with our dogs and the whole experience was amazing. The beach was close enough that we could spend most of the day there with the dogs and didn't need to pack like we were going to Mars. If we needed something or decided to take a break it was just a short walk back to the house. The area is beautiful and has plenty of places to eat, shop, and explore. Everyone we met was so pleasant and we absolutely loved the neighbors and their dogs. The house itself was very spacious and well equipped. We loved being able to play with the dogs in the large fenced backyard. The outdoor shower and having a washer and dryer meant that we were able to keep most of the beach out of the house and we didn’t have to take dirty mutts or funky towels back home with us. Seems silly, but it really did improve the quality of our stay. Communication with the property owner was excellent. We didn't need anything, but the fact that they reached out to check on us was very thoughtful. It made me feel like I wouldn't be a huge inconvenience if we did need to ask questions. I am so grateful that we found this property for this trip and we're already trying to figure out when we can visit again.

Great Place to Stay at the Beach!

Wren Cottage was roomy, very nicely decorated and clean. As advertised, a very short walk to the beautiful white sandy beach of Port Saint Joe Beach. Very convenient to go to Mexico Beach, Port Saint Joe, Cape San Blas and even Saint George Island and Apalachicola for some fun day trips. Host reached out a couple of times to make sure everything was to our satisfaction. We will definitely be coming back to Wren Cottage.

Cute and Comfortable Beach House

We enjoyed our stay at Wren Cottage. The location is excellent just a few steps to beach access. The home is very comfortable with beachy decor and all the amenities you’ll need. Jamie was very responsive and kind when we had questions. We loved spending mornings on the porch swing sipping coffee and watching neighbors walking their dogs on the quiet street. We would definitely stay again!

Great Location and Wonderful Cottage!

Before we even arrived, we had amazing support and communication from the homeowner, Jamie! This cottage is wonderful in every single way - it’s tastefully decorated, stocked well with everything you need and so peaceful. We were so comfortable! The layout is great for two small families, though we had only two adults. Jamie did everything he could to make our stay top notch, and even providing plenty of recommendations from restaurants to beach gear. The location of the cottage in the Port Saint Joe community is wonderful. The home is perfectly situated so close to the beach as it is only a 1-2 walk..you can literally see the beach from the cottage. The weather was perfect for January as it was in the 70’s all week. Thank you for sharing The Wren Cottage with us last week. We will definitely be coming back!

About the host

Hosted by Jamie

Host profile image
Our family has been vacationing in Port St. Joe for years and finally full-filled our dream to purchase a beach home of our own in 2017. Our cottage is named after our Irish family and shares the name with our daughter who came into our lives in 2018. Our laid back lifestyle really fits with the PSJ culture making it the perfect location for us to plant roots!

Why they chose this property

We built the Wren Cottage as a family friendly beach cottage. We wanted easy access to the ocean, biking and walking paths and convenient access to restaurants. The neighborhood is quiet, full of wonderful people and wildlife and very close to downtown PSJ for convenience.

What makes this property unique

The front porch with swing is a great additional space for swinging and enjoying a cup of coffee or glass of wine. The house is professionally decorated so we know that you are going to love the overall look and feel of the home.
