Our beautiful area has been under reconstruction since Hurricane Michael in 2018. We have come a long way since then, but there is still a considerable amount of new construction going on in the area. While we strive to give you an accurate representation in our photos, we cannot guarantee that new construction near your rental hasn't begun since our photos were taken.

Summer vacation
We had a great time at the Watershed. It was a short walk to the beach. We love the screen in porch, we spent plenty nights enjoying the porch and the outside lights. The dead end street was also a plus. We definitely stay again

Comfortable and cozy cottage in a great location. A weekend escape to Mexico Beach is just what the doctor ordered. Me and my family will be counting down the minutes to our next visit.

Home away from home
This was a great place for my family to stay for the week. The house was close enough to the beach (with public beach access)to walk in 5 minutes and near many restaurants. Our visit to Mexico Beach was a good one, in part because the house was clean, and had everything needed for us.

Great stay at Watershed Cottage
Our family thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Watershed Cottage. It was a short and easy walk to the beach, also to a small ice cream shop. The property was very clean. The bathrooms are gorgeous and the beds very comfortable. The kitchen is very spacious and they provided every appliance you could need. Wish we stayed longer! Thank you for a fabulous vacation!
