Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!' Newly built in 2021 in the aftermath of Hurricane Michael, the Cornerstone Beachside Cottage is bursting with character. Located Gulf-side of Hwy. 98, this charmer boasts gorgeous ocean views on three sides and an unbeatable location just a few steps from the beach. Pictures and mementos of the original 1950s cottage that once stood on this spot and other Mexico Beach landmarks are displayed around the home, including the downstairs 1/2-bath vanity, made from a recovered piece of the pier. The blanket bench at the foot of the main suite’s bed was custom-made from a diving platform, pulled from the woods after the hurricane, and the donated headboard is from the original El Governor Motel. Finally, the half-wall at the top of the stairs was custom-made from a WWII Liberty Ship hatch cover, and the three stained-glass windows, imported from England, found new life at Cornerstone via Savannah, GA. Lucky guests of this kiwi-green cottage will find not only history, but also modernity inside this brand-new space. The well-equipped kitchen features lots of counter space, a coffee bar, eat-in island and stainless steel appliances. The adjacent living room offers a large sectional, perfect for an afternoon snooze. If you’ve brought any remote work, the coffee table pops up to a desk, and the home’s 5G internet makes connecting easy. All TVs are smart TVs, making connection to personal streaming accounts simple and fast. Both bedrooms feature direct access to the bathroom and gorgeous sunrise and sunset views – but also blackout shades for those mornings you want to sleep in. Outside, you’ll find several spaces for relaxing, including a porch off the living room, a screened porch - ideal for morning coffee and evening cocktails - and a second covered porch, accessible from the top of the stairs and the front bedroom, the perfect place to enjoy the Gulf breeze. Finally, the lower-level entertainment space offers access to the private outdoor shower and dressing room. Ample additional seating and beach chairs are provided and stored under the outdoor staircase for your use. For a taste of history complete with all the modern conveniences, you simply can’t beat a stay at Cornerstone Beachside Cottage!
