Waterfront Cottage Retreat | Devil's Elbow Fishing Resort

Waterfront Cottage

Take in waterfront views right from the porch of your cottage. These offer the best unobstructed views Devil’s Elbow has to offer.

Wake up to the gentle sound of water and step outside to unobstructed views of the Intracoastal Waterway — this is what the Waterfront Cottage experience is all about. Positioned right on the water’s edge, these cottages are the most sought-after accommodations at Devil’s Elbow, and it’s easy to see why. Drop a line from our shared dock just steps from your door, watch dolphins and sea turtles pass by from your rocking chair as you sip your morning coffee, or relax on the porch as you take in the sunset views right on the water. Inside, you’ll find a clean, comfortable, and fully-equipped two-bedroom cottage with everything you need to settle in and slow down. Whether you’re here for serious fishing or a peaceful escape, the Waterfront Cottage puts you exactly where you want to be — right on the water.
