Beach Cottage-All Moved In

Hey Everyone! I hope this post finds you well.

Today’s post is a home tour of the beach cottage Kody, Ellie and I are currently living in. My in-laws built this cottage as a fun place for there kids and grand kids to stay in while they visit. Kody, Ellie and I somehow talked them into letting us live in the cottage until December, when we move back to St. George.

Kody and his dad has worked on this cottage for the past 4 years. It was a vacant lot covered in reeds, trees, shrubs, and grass. They have spent the past four winters digging out the shrubs and clay. Kody’s parents conveniently own a construction business. They were able to use their equipment to dig out the shrubs, make and lay their cement, as well as make their own beach sand. It’s been neat to see their hard work pay off. The cottage is literally a dream. Kody and I feel like we are on vacation every morning when we wake up to the view. The view itself is phenomenal.

My mother-in-law designed and decorated the entire cottage. She needs to be an interior designer. She is so talented. The colors and style all tie in perfectly. The floors look like wood but are actually tile. She didn’t want to worry about wood floor or carpet getting damaged by the sand and water, so she went with this option. We love it! The floors are extremely easy to clean and I don’t have to worry about them getting water damage or scratched.

Ellie’s room is darling. It is simple, vintage, and girly. The vanity is Ellie’s, great, great grandma Nelda’s. It is Ellie’s favorite part of the entire house. She loves standing up and singing to herself in the mirror. It’s adorable. Ellie’s pink and grey bow/headband organizer is from The Painted Plank. It adds such a cute touch to her room. It is so nice to have all of her hair accessories organized. If you have a little girl I definitely suggest checking out The Painted Plank Etsy shop and following them on Instagram @thepaintedplank. Their organizers are so adorable!

I hope you enjoyed the tour of our beach cottage. Kody, Ellie and I are having the time of our life living in Delta at the reservoir. There’s something about a small town in the country that we can’t get enough of. We must have country in our blood;)

Thanks for following! Your support means so much!
