Welcome to your happy place - The Good Life Cottage in Seacrest Beach! Our goal is to help families and friends relax and make memories to last a lifetime - all at an affordable price.

Why Guests Love The Good Life Cottage

Location, Location, Location! The Good Life is located at The Cottages at Camp Creek, a charming and peaceful coastal community filled with classic metal roofs and wide front porches surrounded by shady sand oaks and palmetto along Scenic 30A, We're pleased that Travel + Leisure Magazine announced that VRBO named scenic 30A the “Best U.S. Beach Town” for 2025, "thanks to its turquoise waters, sugar-white sand, and charming coastal communities." Just cross the street from the community, you’ll find the Timpoochee Trail—a 17-mile paved path perfect for biking, walking, or jogging. You'll find plenty of restaurants, coffee shops, and the iconic communities of Alys Beach and Rosemary Beach (both have play yards) conveniently located within walking distance. To help you explore the local area, we provide four professionally maintained bikes with your cottage rental.

Steps to fun: Enjoy the best of both worlds with easy access to both the beach and the pool, giving you the flexibility to relax, play, and make the most of every day of your vacation. It's only a 5-minute stroll to our private deeded beach access that leads to a Blue Wave Certified Beach (which means it is recognized for its cleanliness, responsible management, and commitment to protecting human health and the environment), known for dunes, white sand, and emerald water where you can relax and set up your beach gear. We provide beach chairs, beach toys, a wheeled cooler, and a large beach wagon for toting your beach stuff. No need to worry about waiting for shuttles or looking for (or paying for) parking spaces when you're heading to the beach. Watch Mother Nature's unique sunset shows in the evenings, and keep a look out for dolphins swimming by in the mornings and sunset. For those times when you're not at the beach, the large 7500 square foot community pool, less than a 1-minute walk, offers refreshing escape where you can cool off and have fun.


Family-friendly comfort: Spacious 3-bedroom, 2-bath, single-level freshly renovated cottage with coastal charm and modern conveniences. Because the Good Life is one of the larger one-story 3-bedroom cottages, it comfortably fits up to 7 people. Our guests appreciate that our small gem of a community, as well as the deeded beach access, stay peaceful even during peak seasons. Bonus: The Good Life cottage is one of the closest to the beach when you want to slip away for your sunrise walks and sunset strolls.


Relax & Recharge

Unwind on the large covered porch surrounded by shady native sea oak trees and palmettos. Furnished like an outdoor room with a glider love seat, matching wicker chairs, and dining table, the porch is perfect for dining al fresco, sipping morning coffee, or playing games on a rainy afternoon - rain or shine. The new quiet and breezy ceiling fans will keep you comfortable on the hottest days.

Inside, enjoy the freshly renovated living space with plenty of windows and natural light (as well as blinds when you want privacy), hardwood floors, comfy seating, and a large smart TV for streaming.

The newly renovated kitchen is thoughtfully designed with modern natural wood cabinets, plenty of storage, and quartz countertops. Fully stocked with stainless steel appliances, quartz countertops, plenty of dishware, glassware, and cookware, and everything from a crockpot to a waffle maker, so you’ll have everything you need for cooking for two to twelve people.

Each bedroom is designed for comfort with fresh linens, blackout curtains for a good night's sleep or afternoon nap, and TVs set up for streaming. For your peace of mind, we use a professional laundry service to ensure that linens are laundered according to professional-grade, CDC-approved standards. The bed linen program aims to provide guests with a consistently clean and sanitary bedding experience.

The three bedrooms and bathrooms are laid out as follows:

Bedroom with king bed and private full bath
Bedroom with queen bed + twin bed
Bedroom with two twin beds (that you can put together to convert to king)
Second full bath next to the queen and twin bedrooms

“The pressing order of each day was whether to go to the pool or beach before lunch. We tossed our laptops in the closet the moment we unpacked and never looked back! Much more fun to do puzzles and relax on the porch. We’ll definitely return and tell our friends.”

"This was the perfect location for our family! It was so easy to hop between the house, beach and pool. House had great beach toys, lots of books and puzzles. Would definitely recommend this spot to families with young children. Owner and property management company were super responsive and communicative."

"Perfect cottage. Our group of 7, including two seniors & three children, loved this cottage. It is a charming cottage with the perfect layout and had everything we needed. We loved the location - it is steps away from a very nice pool. We also loved sitting on the porch with coffee every morning and returning from the beach to the porch to hose off our things and unwind there. The kids loved the trees out back and watching squirrels and “exploring”. The walk to the beach was literally a few easy minutes walk, and we loved that we could easily bike or walk to Alys and Rosemary! Honestly, we can’t find a negative thing to say about our experience and we are so glad to have found this place for future trips."

Important Details

Although we personally enjoy pets, no pets are allowed at the cottage due to severe allergies of some of our family and guests.
