Best yet!

#1 Vrbo property that we’ve stayed in to date. Clean, comfortable, and beautiful house. Our first time to stay in Santa Rosa and won’t be our last. It was better than we expected. The golf cart provided us with a much easier way to get around. We were less than a 5 minute ride from the beach, restaurants, ice cream or coffee. Also loved the nearby pool facilities, and the bikes provided. The neighborhood is beautiful and we felt right at home. Our family would definitively stay here again.

Absolute Oasis!

We had the absolute best time! This was our first time staying in Santa Rosa. We usually stay in Destin, Sandestin, or Panama. We wanted more of a small-town feel, and this was perfect! Coming in peak season, I was worried about crowds on the beaches but quickly found that Gulfview Heights Beach Access was the best and was just a golf cart ride away. Blue Mountain Beach Access is very small, and I would not recommend setting up for a beach day there during peak season. We also could not spend much on food, and Walmart and Publix were just a short 10 minutes away for cooking in the house. The house was a dream, and the layout of the subdivision made you feel like you were surrounded by the woods, along with the trails that lead out to the state forest for walks. Also, the pool was absolutely amazing, and at peak season, it never ever felt crowded. We drove to Seacrest and Seaside one day, and I can tell you we were so happy we stayed in Santa Rosa. The crows there and traffic in peak season were unbearable. I cannot recommend this place enough! It was such a joy to stay here, and I hope we can stay here again one day.

The best week!

We have been to 30A countless times and were so happy with our accommodations this past week at Pine Needle Beach Cottage. Everything was great, but we especially loved the large living room, full-size washer and dryer in the main bedroom, outdoor shower, and access to the golf cart. We would definitely stay here again!

Great house for a family vacation!

Perfect vacation house for our family of 6! Jaclyn was great to work with and always responded quickly to any questions I had. We loved having the golf cart and the house was right down the street to the community pool. Also so close to the public beach accesses. We had a great trip and would stay here again!

Spring Break

Booked Pine Needle for spring break with my daughter and two friends. House was spotless, beds were very comfortable, and it had all the needed amenities. The golf cart and bikes were a huge benefit, the girls rode bikes everywhere and parking the golf cart at the beach access and restaurants was much easier than parking a car. I highly recommend Pine Needle and will look to stay here again.

Just like home!

We stayed at this property twice now and it’s been one of our favorite spots. The home is clean and the setup of the home is great. The golf cart and bikes make everything very accessible! The laundry room next to the master bedroom is also a big bonus. We would book this place anytime we plan to stay at BMB. Everything was perfect!

The Perfect Beach Weekend

We LOVED our stay at Pine Needle Cottage! The home is just as pictured and the great room space is fantastic for hanging out as a group! Access to the golf cart really takes this stay over the top and made it so easy to get to the coffee shop, the beach, etc.. Would 1000% recommend to anyone!

About the host

Hosted by Jaclyn Williams

Host profile image
Our family has enjoyed coming to all the different areas of 30A for over 15 years now. We have always dreamed out owning our own piece of this special place one day. This finally came true for use this year! We have worked hard these past few weeks updating furniture and purchasing a golf cart so our guests will enjoy their stay and come back for many years. We hope you love this area and our house as much as we do!

Why they chose this property

We chose Highland Park in the Blue Mountain Beach area because it has a much quieter, less crowded free than some of the other areas of 30A we have stayed in the past. We liked getting out of the traffic and high crowds of the more popular Seaside, Rosemary and Seagrove areas. Those are just a short bike ride or car ride away to shop, eat and visit some of our favorite places but then come back to our quiet spot to relax.

What makes this property unique

Highland Park subdivision is known for it's AMAZING resort style pool with rock waterfalls, hot tub, fire pit, outlook beach tower, outdoor kitchen with lounge area and tv. The back of the subdivision connects to the state park for beautiful hikes and strolls thru the woods.
