Larger Guest Home Sleeps 2 in Seaside, 352 Yards to Beach + 2 Adult Bikes!
Nestled on picturesque Forest Street in the heart of Seaside, Florida, Green Gables is a charming beach cottage offering timeless style, modern comfort, and an unbeatable location. Just around the corner from Seaside Avenue, the family park, and the family pool, this thoughtfully appointed home is only a 5-minute walk to both the beach access and the Seaside Amphitheater — placing over 40 shops and restaurants just steps from your front door.
Guests will enjoy the convenience of private parking and a lush, tree-lined yard that creates a sense of privacy and tranquility. The bright green exterior of the cottage offers an instant sense of welcome, while the generous greenery surrounding the home enhances its peaceful, tucked-away feel. Enter through a furnished, screened-in porch featuring lounge seating, dual-facing benches, and an overhead fan — a perfect spot for your morning coffee or relaxed evening conversations. The porch sits between the shaded front and back yards, offering a serene transition from outdoor to indoor living. The backyard area is equally enchanting, with more natural landscaping, an outdoor shower, and a private walkway that connects directly to the queen bedroom on the first floor. Inside, the first level features a serene queen bedroom with a window seat, flat-screen TV, ample storage, and double doors leading to the backyard. A full bathroom with a walk-in shower and single vanity is also located on this level.
Upstairs, the open-concept second floor is airy and bright, with vaulted ceilings and thoughtful design throughout. The living area features plush seating, a flat-screen TV, and access to a Juliet balcony overlooking the backyard. A cozy dining space for three is located nearby. The fully equipped kitchen includes a four-burner electric cooktop and oven, under-counter refrigerator, microwave, dishwasher, toaster, and coffee maker — everything you need to prepare meals at home after a sun-soaked day at the beach. A second Juliet balcony off the kitchen offers a charming view of quiet, tree-lined Forest Street. Whether you're planning a romantic getaway or a small family vacation, Green Gables provides the perfect blend of classic Seaside character, comfort, and convenience.

We really like staying here. The community and fun of Seaside is a great experience. Close to the beach - having bikes to ride are fun- shops and Modica Market couldn’t be better. The restaurants and bars are great too. The house was perfect for two of us. Overall was a great vacation for both of us.

My stay was wonderful in this beautiful small cottage, perfect for 2 people! The location is fabulous and the free bike rentals were perfect for this area. It is very close to the fitness center and a pool. I was very happy with the cleanliness and the customer service. I will use this company again to rent in the area!

Reviewer Comments:
Seaside is a unique and magical place because of places like Green Gables. My wife and I stayed here 25 years ago and returned for a three day weekend in October. It was a fantastic stay in a private location on the edge of town surrounded by vegetation. Everything was easily accessible from the beach to the town center to swimming pool, tennis courts and trails. The place has great spaces including the screened in porch, vaulted ceilinged living room/kitchen and unique master bedroom.
We had a wonderful host and owner. They were great to deal with and very accommodating! It was the coziest cottage on a quiet street that was perfect for our couples getaway. We can’t wait to go back. It was a picture walk to Seaside Chapel, pool, downtown and to the beach.
The cottage was perfect for my husband and I. The cleanliness of cottage was my favorite We rode bikes everywhere, but were able to walk to middle of seaside and beach . It was a great trip!

Perfect long weekend getaway for 2. Located in the best location in Seaside proper. 2 blocks to town square, quick and easy access to the beach, and basically next door to the pool. Watch your step on the spiral staircase after a few cocktails but other than that it was exactly as described. Would rent again. Also Homeowners Collection staff is wonderful.
