About this property

The Lantern

Summary:

This beautiful one-bedroom, one-and-a-half-bath cottage, and experience the perfect blend of style, comfort, and privacy for your escape. This cozy retreat is designed as your peaceful sanctuary, set in the safe and quiet Scenic Heights neighborhood.



Indulge in the true luxury of having your own private courtyard—an exclusive, serene space just for you. It's the ideal spot to start your day with a cup of coffee, fire up the grill for a relaxed evening meal, or simply unwind under the stars.



The Space:

The Lantern offers everything you need for a restful and intimate getaway, all while keeping you just minutes from Pensacola's most exciting attractions, including the beautiful sugar-white beaches, vibrant downtown culture, and convenient shopping and dining.



Need More Space? Bring the Family!

If you are planning a larger family vacation, The Lantern's immediate neighbor is The Lighthouse, a spacious three-bedroom, two-bathroom home. You can rent both properties together, creating a fantastic compound that allows you to gather your whole group while still maintaining your own private space in the separate cottage.



Whether you're traveling solo, as a couple, or need a private wing for the extended family, The Lantern promises comfort and convenience like no other.



Guest Access:

Enjoy full access to the house and backyard! .



Please note that the house and yard to the left are reserved for separate guests. We appreciate you respecting their privacy. If you've booked both the house and the cottage, the entire grounds are yours to explore!



Other Things to Note:

The Lighthouse and The Lantern (your cottage) are located on the same lot. The Lantern is located just the the right of the main house. No areas are shared with the exception of the front yard.



Interaction with Guests:

We give our guests complete privacy. However if you need assistance with anything we are only a phone call or text message away!
