About this property

Remodeled historic downtown Punta Gorda, FL charming cottage

LOCATION! LOCATION! LOCATION!
Nestled in the heart of Punta Gorda's Historic District is this remodeled, charming 2 bedroom, 1 1/2 bathroom cottage. Walk everywhere! It is 2-4 short blocks from fantastic restaurants and bars and 4 short blocks to the Harbor River Walk. This little gem is very spacious and will accommodate 4 nicely. The master bedroom has a king size bed while the second bedroom has 2 twin XL beds. These can easily push together to make a king size bed. The cottage is fully contained with all the small appliances you have at home including microwave, toaster, coffee maker, electric kettle, blender, crock pot and air fryer. It has all the dishes and cookware to enjoy cooking and eating indoors or outdoors, including a dishwasher. The screened in lanai is perfect for relaxing outside and the nice ceiling fan will keep you cool while playing your favorite game at the table. This cottage is perfect for a short visit or a long stay.

NOTE: In 2021 this property was listed as a short term rental on Airbnb. The host left her position as my property host to pursue another career. I am the owner, and am now the host. Under Airbnb, I had a 4.8 star rating with 11 reviews over a 4 month period. Since becoming the host I decided to go with VRBO since this site leans towards an older crowd and Punta Gorda is considered a "paradise" for vacationers over the age of 50.

About the host

Hosted by Linda Maurer

Host profile image

I purchased this little remodeled cottage back in 2021 primarily to have as a short term rental. My parents lived in Port Charlotte back in the '90s and I always thought Punta Gorda was a charming little town. I always dreamed of owning something in this town.

Why they chose this property

This property is located just a few short blocks to the river walk, wonderful restaurants and the amphitheater which is located right between Hurricane Charlie's and the Tiki Room. They have a different venue every night of the week. It's lovely to sit outside and listen to the music and enjoy the sea air.

What makes this property unique

The best feature outside of the cottage is not having to drive anywhere. You can really feel you are on VACATION without the headache of TRAFFIC. It's as close to Key West without being there as you can get.
