Great stay--Cozy Cottage

The property owner, Cindy, was easy to communicate with. She stays out of the way but you can easily get ahold of her if needed because she lives in a house on the property. The cottage has everything you need: a full kitchen with stove and microwave, utensils, toaster, coffee maker, glasses, etc., towels, cable TV, and a separate bedroom, with a futon in the living room if needed, and a washer and dryer. The cottage sits well back from the street in front so it's quiet. A lake right in the backyard. Very nice neighborhood. Parking is no problem right in front of the cottage. Tons of restaurants nearby if you have a car. In the recent past, I stayed in another rental about 3 properties away from this rental. I would easily recommend that one and The Cozy Cottage. The Cozy Cottage is best recommended for a single traveler or a couple.....PK

Highly recommend

My daughter and I had an extended stay in Florida for training and our stay at the Cottage was perfect. This property is very well maintained and stocked. Cindy and her husband graciously came to our rescue when we couldn’t figure out the TV and the Super Bowl was about to begin. The proximity to the lake provided a serene atmosphere that helped to make our work trip relaxing.

Beautiful property, Amazing Hosts

Cindy and Steve anticipate everything a guest may need and have it in place before checkin. During an extended power outage following Hurricane Ian they provided a grill, a camp stove, and access to their generator. They are long-time area residents and have a wealth of information about restaurants, shops, and activities. Highly recommended!
