A Note on our Tropical Setting:
Twin Oaks Cottage is nestled under a lush canopy of majestic oaks in a beautiful sub-tropical climate. Because this is a historic 1940s home with vintage charm, and because we are surrounded by nature, you may occasionally see a "Palmetto Bug" (a large Florida wood roach) during the hot or wet months. We have a strict professional pest control schedule, but they are a natural part of the Florida landscape!
Host Tip: To keep the "great outdoors" where it belongs, please keep doors and windows closed at all times.

Summary: We had at a delighted stay at Twin Oaks cottage Pensacola. From the moment we walked in the front door we knew we would have a wonderful four weeks here. The décor was lovely throughout and each room well equipped. The kitchen had everything one would need for cook meals from breakfast to dinner. The bed was very comfortable, and the linens supplied were plentiful. The cottage has great sitting areas both indoors and outside - one never felt confined. The host responded quickly re any queries. The cottage has useful and interesting information provided.We highly recommend Twin Oaks.
