About this property
Cutest cottage across from the beach!
Hurricane Michael washed away the original Pickels Paradise on the beach but this beautiful place just down the street survived the category 5 storm and is newly renovated and beautifully updated. It is a 1 bedroom with a queen bed and a set of built in bunk beds, 1 bath. Cozy open living room and kitchen with french doors to private patio and outdoor dining area with beautiful palm trees perfect for a hammock. Just a short walk across Hwy 98 to the dedicated beach! Enjoy the ocean breeze and splashing waves as you watch the sunset. Pets, bonfires and the relaxing beverage of your choice are all allowed on the beach. Bonus outdoor enclosed shower with hot water to wash all the sand from the beach away! Also it is very close and you only need to walk just one block to eat at Shipwreck restaurant! Come make unforgettable memories here!

We had a wonderful family trip and would absolutely stay here again! The location was the real star — beach access was incredibly convenient, and we loved being just steps from the water. Everything we needed for a fun, relaxing family vacation was right there. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a great beach getaway!
This was home. So cozy and comfortable. The location was perfect. Barbara our host cared about us like family. We are forever grateful for this beautiful, relaxing vacation.
Amenities in cottage were what we needed. Bed was comfortable. Bathroom was in good shape. Kitchen was well-appointed. Wi-Fi worked great. Access to beach was great.
We enjoyed staying here. It had all we needed for a day at the beach with the wagon, chairs and umbrella and a short walk across the street. The beach was never crowded. Just a short drive to restaurants and shops and Panama City Beach less than an hour away.
We enjoyed our stay at this cute little cottage. The location is great. Short walk to the beach. The cottage was very clean and comfortable. Barbara is a great host to work with.
We had a great, relaxing stay at Mrs. Barbara’s place. Everything was as stated and shown in the pictures. Super cute 1 bedroom/1bath unit. We would definitely stay there again.
Perfect size for our needs. Clean, comfortable beds, nicely decorated. Great restaurant 1 block away. Quiet neighborhood. Just across the road from the pristine beach. Hope to visit again sometime
Just an adorable home! Very thoughtful in design and laid out perfectly, it’s location to everything St Joe and Mexico Beach is spot on.
Our host is very gracious and so very kind!
I just can’t describe fully on how great a stay we had. We sure will come back!!
Much thanks to

Tiny & comfy
This place was great for our needs. Tiny but comfy with great beds, comfy couch & plenty of seating. Great shower & well appointed kitchen. Loved the outdoor area. There was a problem with the check in as the address given by VRBO is not the actual address. This needs to be updated. Would definitely stay again if in the area.
We enjoy the quietness of st Joe beach. Our host was very kind and helpful. Beach was an easy walk. The outdoor space was very nice and we enjoyed playing corn hole. We loved the beach carts for easy transport of our chairs and umbrella. Would for sure return!
At first you may think that a double decker will be loud neighbors, but we didn’t hear a peep. Very nice accommodations, every detail has been thought out from the knife sharpener To the beach chairs and toys. It’s was the perfect size for the 2 of us, but if you had small kids, it would be perfect for you, too. Great location, and we are very glad we stumbled across this cute home.
After a horrible thunderstorm on arrival, the skies cleared. I enjoyed morning coffees on the outdoor patio couch. The beach is just across the street.
The unit was very comfortable. The kitchen had everything needed for cooking although I ate out often. Best restaurant is Shipwreck just a block away.
The area is very quiet and feels safe.

Disliked: Check-in, location, listing accuracy
The address shown in VRBO of the rental is several miles from the actual address of the rental property. On the map it shows beachfront property - it is close to the beach but across the highway a block away. The address listed should be accurate! Though it was generally clean, there was a hole in the bottom sheet, the rug in front of sink was dirty, the outdoor furniture is worn and soiled - not inviting at all to sit on. I have not stayed at an VRBO that has not provided at least a couple of laundry soap tablets and Keurig cups for coffee. There also needs to be directions for using the TV remotes - the one remote indicates DirectTV but there was not cable reception. Walking on the beach and view of the gulf were highlights of our stay.
Barbara’s place was wonderful! It had everything we needed. The walk to the beach was easy and the beaches were clean and not crowded! We will definitely be back!
We loved everything about our stay. It was very clean, with very easy beach access. It’s very tastefully decorated, clean, and comfortable. If we are ever back in the area, we would definitely choose to stay here again.
What a wonderful property for relaxing! Super clean and well stocked with everything needed! Comfortable beds and furniture, and quiet surroundings! The walk to the beautiful beach was such a short distance it made everything convenient!We will definitely be back!
