About Susan Rittger / Herb Rittger

Herb and Susie have lovingly completed the restoration of this beautiful and unique circa 1883 property, consisting of four buildings. This historical estate is known as "Nine Oaks".The four buildings consist of the main house, cottage, gardener workshop and the *Carriage House (*vacation home) located on the Intracoastal Waterway. Now semi-retired, Herb and Susie love to add gardens, stone walls, and statuary. Veggies and Herbs too. Susie, commercial artist/Illustrator ....collector of art and all things odd, whimsical and lovely loves to add unique items and original art to the homes and gardens. There is even a "Fairy Garden" for the young at heart. Settling in New Smyrna Beach was the BEST choice for us. It truly has everything that we love to do and in a relaxed Floridian atmosphere. LIFE IS GOOD!

My husband and I recently enjoyed our second stay at the charming Carriage House. This cozy cottage features comfy furniture, antiques, art, collectibles, and stained glass that all meld together to create a warm and unique atmosphere. There is beautiful landscaping surrounding the entire estate, a tropical and tranquil swimming pool area, and even an enchanting fairy garden. You can wander the pathways or view all of this beauty from the second story deck. The entire historic property is lovingly maintained by the wonderful owners and hosts, Susie and Herb, who care about every detail of the vacation experience. We truly loved every aspect of our relaxing retreat at this very special piece of paradise!!

Excellent

The cottage is one of the most unique private getaways surrounded by formal gardens, a private pool that words could never describe ...certainly a sanctuary for travelers who desire A RARE EXPERIENCE. Once you leave the the property you realize the owners' exquisite personal attention to detail ...and preserving history. Here you're insulated from the rest of the world to restore and inspire while visiting one of Florida's most precious historic towns...at your doorstep. If you're fortunate you'll be able to visit again if there is an open date on the calendar. My hubby and I will never forget our week here in paradise. Suzi and Herb embrace their guests like long lost family, thinking ahead to everything that one could need for comfort ...and genuine hospitality.

Truly a very beautiful, private and very comfortable retreat.

5 stars does not give this property enough recognition for excellence. Yes the house was clean. The garden area magnificent. The pool secluded, private and of course as with everything else clean and comfortable. The private dock space across the street is a wonderful place to put your feet up and watch the boats and the dolphins. With that being said, I highly recommend you not only consider this property but you actually book it. Why? Well the above should be enough of a reason, however there is an ace in the hole, so to speak, concerning this property. That is the true to heart welcoming feeling you will have during your stay because of the owners Herb and Susie. They are SO NICE and they truly care about you enjoying your time there and will do anything to to make it happen. We truly feel we now have 2 friends in New Smyrna Beach Fl. Looking forward to seeing you both again as soon as possible.
