The space
Starfish Cottage 30A is a 4 bedroom 3 ½ bath beach house built in 2014. The home is located in beautiful Blue Mountain Beach Florida. Starfish Cottage is located in the upscale Lakeside at Blue Mountain Beach neighborhood right off 30A.

The home has a great open concept floor plan. The large open den and kitchen are perfect for entertaining and family meals. The upstairs master suite opens onto a private porch with beautiful views of the surrounding neighborhood. The main level porch is great for relaxing and entertaining. This house is perfect for 2 families to share and can easily sleep 10 people. The home features two master suites (one upstairs, and one down), both with king size beds. The master baths feature large custom tile showers with rainfall shower heads, and a soaker tub in the upstairs master bath for a spa-like experience. There is an additional spacious bedroom with a queen bed, and a bunk room with 2 twin beds, that is perfect for the kids. A queen size pull out sofa is located in the den to accommodate additional guests. The home also features several pieces of original art by well know artists.

As a new custom home Starfish Cottage features hardwood floors throughout, granite counter tops in the kitchen and baths, travertine floors and showers in the bathrooms, and stainless steel appliances. The den includes a large (51”) LCD smart TV with Direct TV Satellite and each bedroom also has a large LCD TV. High speed Wi-Fi is also included as well as a gas grill for outdoor cooking. A collection of books and games are also provided for guests to use.

Starfish Cottage is a short walk (5-6 minutes) to the Blue Mountain Beach Access, or an even shorter bike ride. The Lakeside at Blue Mountain Beach development is located directly behind Red Fish Village and is adjacent to Big Redfish Lake.

The pool area includes restrooms as well as lounge chairs, tables, and umbrellas. The house includes adult and kids bikes for your use.(we try to make sure all bikes in working condition but we do not guarantee the condition or number of bikes available at any time) There is a bike path, just across the road from the home, that runs along highway 30A, Point Washington State Park backs up to our neighborhood and is a great place to hike. Starfish Cottage is a short bike ride to historic Grayton Beach, Watercolor, and Seaside Florida. There are several great local restaurants, such as the famous Red Bar, and fun, eclectic shops. If you love ice cream then a visit to Blue Mountain Creamery Ice Cream shop is a must. It is located just 1 block away on 30A. Kayak or paddle board rental is available close by for use on the local dune lakes, or the Gulf of Mexico. Golf cart rental is also available.

Starfish Cottage

We had a 3 night stay for a birthday weekend. We enjoyed the house and the pool. Comfortable beds and large rooms. Decorations were beachy themed and fit the house. Quiet neighborhood and the bikes were fun and nice to have. We saw two deer in the neighborhood at an empty house in the front yard eating. Owners very nice and responded quickly to requests. Thank you for sharing your beach house. It is nice and we felt at home during our stay.

Wonderful, Relaxing Family Beach Vaca

We had a spectacular week! What a wonderful & inviting home that had all that we needed for an amazing family vaca! The bikes and beach equipment came in very handy. We rode to Grayton Beach and around every day! The pool was nice, clean and not crowded at all! It was perfect to get up early and get your spot on the beach to enjoy all day! The Creamery was phenomenal as well and my daughter loved the snow cones as well. I could go on and on. If we had a question or concern, the owners were very prompt to respond. Thanks for sharing your beautiful beach home with us. We had a wonderful time and will definitely be back to Blue Mountain again! Our new fav place!

Family friendly

The house was very well equipped with everything we needed. Plenty of starter items such as trash bags, TP, laundry pods and dishwasher pods. The small welcome bag was super thoughtful . We used the pack n play and my kids loved the bunkroom toy bin and all the beach toys in the outdoor closet. We rode a few of bikes. They were a little worn/rusty and we did have a chain fall off during a ride but it fixed easily. The biggest downside (at no fault of the owners), the pool was closed for the first 5 days of our stay so we only used it once and the women's bathroom was out of order as well. Definitely recommend using the cut through to the beach. Lovely property, would stay again.

Love Starfish Cottage

We loved the cottage and the great neighborhood. It was perfect for 6 adults and 2 ten year olds. Beds and bathrooms were great. Wish there were mirrors in bedrooms. Also we could have used more towel bars. A row of hooks in bedrooms would have been great. Upstairs balcony and front porch were used a lot. Kids loved the bikes. Had to put chain back on one. Appreciated the beach chairs and wagon but chairs Starting to rust. Due to COVID we grilled a lot. Propane may need refilled. Blue Mountain is perfect. Rosemary Beach and Seaside have gotten way too crowded for us. We look forward to coming back.

Well equipped house - convenient to beach!

This house had a very equipped kithen for cooking and with the high prices and long waits for eating out, we did a lot of cooking. Publix was only a 7 minute drive. We had some rain and storms during our stay so our teen boys joined a gym in Grayton and the moms did yoga at Yoga Bar which was a wonderful yoga experience. The house is walking distance to Red Fish Village and the shortcut path made it even closer. Red Fish Village has shops and restaurants. The Creamery Ice Cream on the way to and from the closest beach is top notch homemade ice cream and homemade waffle cones! The house had one good adult bike when we were there and some smaller kid bikes, but renting bikes from Sweet Escapes for $50 a week and they deliver and pick up was super convenient. Lots of boogy boards and beach chairs at the house and kids' sand toys. The location was great and the neighborhood is very peaceful and cute. The pool was super close and nice. We rode bikes every day and the 30A bike trail was super close. House was clean and we didn't see one bug the entire week which is amazing for a beach house! We had 10 people in our party. Two families with 4 teenagers between us and we all had a fabulous time. The owners/managers were super quick to respond whenever I had questions. We would absolutely love to stay here again!
