Best Neighborhood in Ft Myers

We called this cottage home for 2 months while our new home was being built. It was perfect for our needs. Jeff is an outstanding host. He quickly responded to any question or need. It has a good kitchen stocked with anything you might need to cook a meal. A comfortable bed with all necessary linens and towels provided. The cottage is located in the McGregor district, with the Edison and Ford Estates a short walk down McGregor Blvd.
