I am a retired educator, having taught in New York City as well as in Florida. I love traveling, playing pickleball, ballroom and country dancing, Broadway musicals, knitting and reading. I especially enjoy being with my family, friends, and meeting new people. Being a host lets me meet people from all over the country and sometimes the world. It makes me happy to give people an affordable place to stay while they are in my wonderful city, Delray Beach.

The cottage is the perfect place to stay for a visit to this wonderful city. I have set it up to have all of the amenities that I would like when travelling. The cottage is a mile from beautiful Atlantic Beach, and 9 blocks from downtown Delray Beach, a fun, trendy, place that shoppers (great boutiques and stores) and foodies (fabulous restaurants) will love. The cottage is in my backyard, but it is very private. It is a five-minute ride to the Interstate, 20 minutes to downtown West Palm Beach, 30 minutes to Fort Lauderdale, and an hour to Miami. There is so much to do in South Florida. You can see the sights or just relax at the beach or in the backyard.

The cottage is in a perfect location. It's away from the hustle and bustle of downtown Delray Beach yet close enough to walk there. The beach is barely a mile away if that's "your thing". You can play tennis or pickleball at our world class tennis center, only 10 blocks from the property. There are ballrooms you can drive to and dance the night away. Visit the lovely Morikami Japanese Gardens, or one of the exhibits at the nearby Cornell Museum. Like to walk and see nature? There are two wetland nature centers in Delray Beach where you can walk and see many types of birds, turtles, iguanas and even alligators.
