5 Bedroom Cottage in Crystal Beach, Destin
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.
