We loved this property! The home is new and updated. It was clean also. The host was so helpful and I even texted her for advice about a jellyfish sting and she was gracious and happy to help. We were also so pleased with all the extras that she provided like beach towels, chairs, umbrella and sifting tools. The beach isn't really in walking distance but it's a very short drive there, like maybe 5 minutes. Wonderful experience overall and my family found a ton of shark teeth!

Convenient access to beaches and shopping needs

The rental was clean, conveniently located to beaches and shopping, and a pleasant place to relax after a busy day in the area. The rental is a guest house in the back tucked behind the owner’s house. All went well with our stay.

Great Vacation Spot!

My husband and I, along with our 3.5 month old, spent a long weekend here and it’s the perfect spot! Great location! It’s quiet but also close to everything. The beds are comfortable and the hosts thought of everything. For our baby, we set up the pack n play in the second bedroom and they even provided an inflatable infant bathtub. The house was very clean and we would 100% stay here again!

This little cottage is perfect for a get away. We booked this for a small girls trip and we loved it from start to finish. The cottage made us feel so safe and secure. The house smelled clean and was SO nice. The host was also very quick to respond. It is also a very close drive to the beach. We will definitely book again.

Most Awesome Place

Wonderful, charming, comfortable and convenient place to stay! The hostess and host are lovely people who we can be comfortable with! It is cutely decorated with beach theme! All the conveniences of home and then some! We’ve stayed several times over the years and will continue to, as long as its available! We’ve already booked next year and may book again for the fall if we can fit it in our schedule! Love this place and our hosts, Cathy & Jerry! We always feel welcomed and accommodated there!

Birthdary trip

We were celebrating my nephew's girlfriend's 21 birthday. The house was amazing. It was clean and had everything we needed. Kathy was so nice and helpful. We were less than 2 miles from the beach. The beds were comfortable, the decor was beach themed and very relaxing. I will be staying here again.

House was perfect. 3 miles from beach. Host very helpful and they provide more than I expected. I saved a lot of money not having to buy paper towels, cleaning supplies, trash bags, paper plates, toilet paper, shampoo, conditioner, body wash and soaps, etc. the beach supplies were awesome as well. We look forward to coming back

Explore and Relax

The home was excellent—just the right space for my teenage son and me as we visited family. The bedrooms and bathroom were nice, and the living space and outdoor patio area were great. The only minor issue was the neighbor, who has dogs, and they would be out barking late at night, but that was not the hosts' fault; it is just something to be aware of.

Delightful Cottage

This cottage is amazing! So clean and comfortable. We loved that it is only a few miles from a beautiful white sand beach! Perfect location tucked away on a dead end road made it wonderfully quiet and private. Having a garage was a plus and having it stocked with beach chairs, shell rake and other beach supplies was a blessing. The host was very welcoming and had great communication with us. We loved it and hope to go back in the future!

Lovely property!

We stayed as a family of 4, two adults and two kids plus our 8lb dog. Property is a detached mother in law type of property that is very well maintained and clean. Hosts were incredibly responsive and kind. The location is ideal just a couple of minutes to Manasota Beach which is great to find shark teeth. Very private and spacious outdoor area with swing. We were comfortable and had great wifi. The added laundry room and spacious garage were a huge plus! We have stayed in MANY vacation rentals and this one was one of our favorites because it was clean and comfortable. Look forward to staying again!
