We really enjoyed our stay at Kats Cottage! The host was very helpful and responsive. The house was very clean and ready at check-in! Stocked with essential items, such as paper towels, toilet paper, hand soap, dish liquid soap, laundry liquid, and fabric sheets. The kitchen had the basic utensils needed to cook with. Nice backyard for kiddos and fur babies to run around. I enjoyed sitting on the swing in the backyard. Close and easy access to the beach! We hope to visit Kats Cottage again and would highly recommend it!

Manager's Response

Mary, it is great to hear that you had a fantastic time at Kats Cottage. We just love how close it is to the beach. Hope you all were able to take advantage of the soft white sands and take in the beautiful views of the sunset at night. Thank you for taking the time to send us your feedback.

Great location to the beach. Was nice to arrive with dish detergent, clothing detergent and plenty of room for the kids to play outdoors. No ceiling fans or televisions in bedrooms which was unfortunate. Otherwise nice relaxing stay

We stayed at Kats Cottage for the month of February. It was exactly as described and our few questions and needs were met by Sunshine quickly. The house was perfect for us and the fenced in backyard meant our dog enjoyed it as well. I had read a previous review about the lack of a good sized skillet, so went prepared. Other than NOT providing a good sized skillet, the kitchen was well equipped. We would DEFINITELY stay at Kats Cottage again and if (when) we come back to the Forgotten Coast, we will be checking with Sunshine first. Totally got our moneys worth and would Highly Recommend.

Manager's Response

Thank you so much for the kind words Susan. We are so glad you enjoyed this lovely home. We will make sure that a large skillet is added to the home!  Please reach out to us when you are ready to come back to our little slice of paradise!

Fantastic quiet beach trip

October 2023

We had a wonderful time at Kat's Cottage. Very close to the beach with an easy drive to Port St. Joe or to Panama City Beach if your looking for more touristy activities. The property has beach chairs available which was great. The house really felt comfortable and like a home. Cooking equipment and utensils were sparse. But enough was there to cook if desired. There are 2 living areas which were both very comfortable. We spent more time in the bonus room where we could watch movies or take the dog to the back yard to play fetch. Unfortunately our time at Kat's Cottage was cut short by the city busting the drain pipe. But the property management was quick to move us to another property in Mexico Beach which was equally as nice and convenient. Well definitely be back.

Manager's Response

We are happy to hear our home(s) were able to comfortably accommodate your family for your vacation! We strive to stock our properties with all your possible needs during your stay. We are so sorry for the inconvenience of having to move mid-stay but we are glad the second property equally met you needs. Thanks for all your positive feedback and we can't wait to see you again soon!

Very Nice Home, Peaceful, Comfortable & Convenient

We loved staying at Kat's Cottage, so much so that we added an additional night at the beginning of our stay and one at the end of our stay! The house was clean, in a great location and has a nice lot. Some of my favorite things about this house was the huge family room, the fenced in back yard, the stunning magnolia tree in the back yard and the back yard swing! I loved sitting in the swing looking at that beautiful tree. The yard was nice and level and fenced in. The beds were comfortable. This was a convenient location to the boat ramp in Mexico Beach. We will definitely stay again!

Manager's Response

Thank you Ramona! We are thrilled you enjoyed your stay with us. Kat's Cottage is indeed comfortable, cozy and a nice retreat for some R & R. We look forward to the opportunity to host you again soon. It was our pleasure.

Everything was as advertised, short walk to the beach and very clean. Communication was excellent! House was really big! The only issues were very sparse kitchen supplies…definitely not a cooks kitchen. Also, we had to be out by 9AM which is very difficult after a long stay. I would stay again, but start packing up the night before!

Manager's Response

Thank you for your kind words and recommendations. We are happy to hear you enjoyed your stay at Kat's Cottage. We look forward to many happy returns and stays with us.

We were very pleased with the location and the cleanliness of the home. Owner in very responsive and friendly. Spacious and well laid out for groups with two separate large tv areas and ample seating. Great, open home for traveling with a dog. The yard is fenced with some shade in the back thanks to a large magnolia but beware of ANTS. If you plan on cooking pay attention to what is included as you may want to bring your own large pot for a shrimp boil or larger skillet for cooking more than a few eggs. There was plenty of silverware, plates, and glasses. Entry was easy and we felt secure at night in this quiet beach town. All in all we enjoyed this home and will very likely book again.

House was perfect for our stay. Very clean, everything worked great - no complaints at all We loved the large family room with seating and a big TV for our whole family to hang out at night.

Kat’s Cottage was the perfect spot for our last minute trip to the beach. Very responsive and super helpful in booking less than 24 hours before arrival. Three different entertainment areas would be ideal for families and a pingpong table! Kitchen is fully stocked. Beach chairs. Totally easy beach access. Quiet community. Loved the swing out back.

Manager's Response

We are pleased you had a great experience. Thanks for the 5-star review as you are one of our first renters this year! What a way to start off the season with this gorgeous home!
