About this cottage rental

Welcome to Kemp’s Kove — a one-of-a-kind Crystal Beach retreat owned and managed by a local family. With 5 bedrooms, 4 bathrooms, and space for 14 guests across two private structures, this is the ideal home base for families, friend groups, and multi-generational getaways.

❖ The Space
Kemp’s Kove is made up of a main house and a private casita — perfect for groups who want to vacation together while having their own space. The main house features 3 bedrooms (K/K/Full over Full bunk), 2 full baths, a fully equipped kitchen, and a screened-in porch with a dining table for outdoor meals. The casita offers two floors of independent living, each with its own kitchenette and bathroom (Q down and 2 Qs up)— ideal for grandparents, teens, or anyone who values a little extra privacy.

❖ The Backyard
This is where Kemp’s Kove really shines. Step outside to your private fenced pool (heating available for $75/night Oct-April), a gas fire pit, and plenty of space for your group to unwind. It’s an entire resort — just for your group.

❖ Beach Ready
You’re less than a 5-minute walk to Destin’s sugar-white sand and emerald water. We include 8 beach chairs, a cooler, and a beach dolly with balloon tires so you can haul everything in one easy trip — no rental lines, no extra fees, no sweating it.

❖ More You’ll Love
• Dog friendly — up to 2 dogs welcome ($150 pet fee per stay; inquire for additional dogs)
• Fast Wi-Fi and smart TVs throughout
• Board Games provided for rainy days
• Outdoor shower to rinse off after the beach
• Smart locks for easy, contactless check-in
• Parking for up to 7 vehicles
• Early check-in and late checkout available upon request

❖ Location
Situated at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac in Crystal Beach area of Destin with wetlands on one side, Kemp’s Kove offers rare privacy for a property this close to everything. You’re steps from the beach, and a few minutes drive from dining / shopping — but it feels like your own little world.

We’re a local family who loves this stretch of the Emerald Coast, and we want your stay to be exceptional. We aim to respond within the hour and are always happy to help make your trip special.

Book your dates before they’re gone — Kemp’s Kove fills up fast.

Primary guest must be at least 25 and stay at the property during the stay.

Please note that the Kemps Kove Bar (tiki bar) in the back yard burned down in May, I am working on replacing with a bigger bar currently working through permits. Please bear with me as we deal with this fire damage and rebuild. Apologies for the inconvenience.
