Cottages on Intracoastal Waterway with Private Dock/Boat Slips

My 2 little Yorkshire Terriers and I stayed here from 10/24 to 11/01/2015 and just loved this place. The cottage is very comfortable and there wasn't anything else that I needed during my week's stay. And the views off the back deck over-looking the intracoastal water-way....sunrise, sunset and when I was there....a full moon made for some excellent photography. The house is a few miles from most attractions such as the Jupiter Lighthouse, Jupiter Island, Juno Beach......but I was able to get to them by bicycle. There's a state park across the road that has a neat 2 hour river cruise and many bike paths. Stuart, Fl. to the north and Palm Beach to the south are just a short car ride away. There is a care-taker for the property that was very informative....he gave me several ideas as to where to bike ride......Riverbend Park being my favorite. I had a great time and highly recommend this cottage to anyone.

This is our new favorite getaway! We live in New Smyrna Beach, about 2 1/2 hours from Jupiter and we love coming south for the bluer water and better fishing. Love that this villa offers a boat slip, is a pet friendly, and so close to the inlet. We took our daughter, her friend, our dog, and our boat! LOl.. We had plenty of room even with the villa only being a 1x1. It works for us and has everything we need! The grounds are super tropical and the sand/fire pit area was a favorite hang out for the teen girls. It's a perfect little piece of paradise!!

This cottage was exactly what we were looking for-a safe restful haven for myself, husband and dog Tater while we handled my Mom's funeral arrangements. We contacted Randy just 4 days prior to the service -he replied quickly and worked with us to make our stay as comfortable as possible. It was well stocked, clean and true to the listing description. We anticipated occasional visitors and the large kitchen island & seating on the terraces out back were perfect. It was easy to launch our kayak from the floating dock when we needed some solitude. We think Jupiter Beach is THE best leash-free dog friendly beach in Florida, and we've visited 4 to date. I read the prior reviews and agree the grounds need a little TLC but everything on the water requires a lot of upkeep. This is a waterfront cottage not a Jupiter Island mansion, and I recommend this to anyone interested in boating fishing and a beautiful waterfront view. The availability of 2 side by side waterfront cottages is rare, and would be perfect for 2 families wishing to vacation together. I look forward to returning under happier circumstances soon.

I was a little nervous because this was the first time using VRBO - but we were SOOOOOOOO extremely happy! Dealing with the owner was easy - has was most accommodating and super friendly! There was a "caretaker" on the grounds - Dwayne - really nice guy and super helpful in telling us how to get places! Cottage is ADORABLE! We had the south cottage - it was just me, my hubby and our 12 lb beagle - Milee - so it was the perfect size! And there are concrete barriers on both sides of the "yard" and a gate in front - so I could just open the glass sliders and she could run around! The house was clean and the view was to die for! Beds were comfy too! There was a Publix just down the road and the best breakfast place - A TIME TO EAT DINER!!! PB&J Pancakes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I will definitely stay there again if we are ever in that area!

PROS: VERY beautiful view, pleasantly decorated, there's a guy who lives on a boat on the property who was always friendly and helpful, hot tub, good location near beaches and businesses.

CONS: Noise of traffic, some of the outdoor furniture is in bad shape and was in need of a good cleaning, landscaping also not in great shaped (cleaned up lots of dead leaves and branches), property manager
