Bring Your Boat! Gulf Access, New Remodel! Fishing Cottage in Matlacha! Free Bikes, Parking & Wifi!

Welcome to your ideal island escape! Nestled in colorful, charming Matlacha, this freshly remodeled 3 bedroom, 2 bath fishing cottage combines classic Florida charm with modern comfort—perfect for anglers, boaters, and anyone craving a laid-back waterfront getaway.



Waterfront Paradise:



Located on a Gulf-access canal, this cottage offers quick boating access to world-class fishing and the open waters of Pine Island Sound. Step outside to your private dock, perfect for tying up your boat after a day on the water. There’s ample space for boat-trailer parking, and for monthly minimums, guests may request access to the boat lift (owner approval required). The public boat ramp is within walking distance from the home.



Outdoor Living:



Surrounded by lush tropical landscaping, the property feels like a secluded island oasis. Sip morning coffee by the water, cast a line from the dock, or take a leisurely ride around Matlacha using the owner-provided bicycles. After a day of fishing, you can clean your catch at the cleaning station along the dock, and if you bring kayak, you'll appreciate the stairs down to the water to help you launch off the sea wall.

A gas grill is provided, the purchase of propane, if needed, is the responsibility of the guest.
