About this cottage rental
Welcome to the McDonald Cottage. This home is ideal for family gatherings or a group of couples.Located south of 30A on the southwest corner of Rosemary Ave and East Water Street. Very easy walking distance to the Western or Eastern Greens. The main house easily sleeps 12 . The inverted floor plan, with the kitchen and living area upstairs, makes for easy entertaining. There is a large balcony on the front of the house with great gulf views. High ceilings and casual elegance make this 4000 sq ft home one of the best properties at Rosemary Beach.
There is a 2 bedroom/2 bath carriage house on this property that can be rented also. VRBO 251622.
As you walk in the front door , you enter a very gracious entry. On this floor are 3 bedrooms and 3 baths.
The spacious downstairs master has a king bed and large bath with tub. The second bedroom has 2 queen beds and a full bath with shower. The third bedroom is a child's dream with 3 sets of bunk beds and a large bathroom with a long sink and shower. All bedrooms have their own full bath. The washer/dryer are also on this floor. There is a special nook inside the backdoor for putting all those sandy shoes.
Upstairs there is a master bedroom with a king bed and full bath with two sinks. The kitchen, living and dining rooms are all open to each other. In the living area is a flat screen TV along with Apple TV. There is a bar area beside the kitchen with a small refrigerator for drinks and an additional ice maker.
The dining table is a large square which easily seats 12/14. An additional bedroom/TV room with a twin bed is on this floor and a half bath.
We have recently renovated and added an additional room off the living area that has comfortable seating and another TV. This room has nice gulf views and lots of windows.
An open porch on the front of the house runs the length of the house and has great water views. This is the perfect spot to spend the day relaxing or even napping.
There are stairs off the back of the house that lead to a third floor deck. The most popular place in the house!!
Prior to check in at Rosemary Beach there is a $707 cleaning fee. You might want to get your own damage insurance.
Starting in June 2026, Rosemary has implemented a 3% resort fee that will be added to your invoice.
If you have more questions feel free to send a message to me.
Thanks, Elizabeth McDonald

Fantastic house in a great location in Rosemary Beach association.Believe the other reviews when they say the photos don't do it justice. The living room/kitchen area is just gorgeous. Very open, very welcoming. We loved our stay here. Some of the bedrooms seemed very updated (like the incredible bunk room) some a bit older but all the beds were very comfortable. LOVED the roof deck and we spent much of our time hanging out up there. The host was always super responsive. My only complaint is a few days prior to our stay we received a text from the Property management company stating that they try to have check in ready at 4 but could be as late as 7. That was a bit shocking. Thankfully no one was staying there the night before us so the house was actually ready before 4. 100% would recommend and hope to stay there again.

We had an amazing time during our mother/daughters trip, and this house was absolutely perfect for us. It provided ample living space, and the bedrooms were wonderfully spacious. The kitchen was well stocked, making it a breeze to prepare meals, and we loved sipping on our glasses of wine while enjoying the porch. The
house's location was ideal, as it was conveniently close to the boardwalk for easy access to the beach. We couldn't have asked for a better place to stay.

Perfect location just a short walk from the beach and also an easy walk to many restaurants. House has a great layout with lots of sleeping space and plenty of room for a family to spread out. Definitely recommend

We just returned from a fantastic trip with four families at this house and it was amazing. The layout is very conducive to entertaining and group interaction, but there is also plenty of space to get away for some quiet alone time as well. Every bedroom is spacious and the kids' bunk bed room was almost as much fun as the beach! The house is located very centrally, steps away from the beach, two pools, and the shops and restaurants of Rosemary. We will definitely be coming back! Thanks for a great time.
