Fantastic place. Small, but cozy with everything you'll need to sleep or relax from a long days fishing or exploring the Everglades. Would definitely stay here again.
We enjoyed our stay here. It was near the Everglades and Cyprus reserve, water activities, good sea-food restaurants. and it was easy to walk through town from. We found the accommodations cheerful and nice. The place had everything we needed. We also enjoyed sitting on the front porch.
Location was fantastic for exploring the Everglades, 10,000 Islands and Big Cypress. Best bed (firm!) that I have had in Florida. Very clean.

Faucet in bathroom. Just a trickle. No soap available little toilet paper. Kitchen faucet sills over edge of sink, no salt or pepper, no light in dining area where eat, tv was replaced first day bc it didn’t work. No attention to detail for comfortable easy stay. Hard to get host. Good bed and cool unit. Dirty outdoor furniture and area outdoors on deck
Was good for what we needed. Had my son with on this trip was nice to have the extra bed. Kitchen was nice/small and bathroom was good. Porch was nice but did not know it was a shared cottage so you will see and hear kids and other people attached. Please check batteries in deadbolt and remotes had issues with locking door and using large tv. We did have extra batteries with us. Never used the washer and dryer but was nice to have. Across from Camillas cafe which is one of the best spots on island for food.

The fishing environment is all around this property.
What makes this property unique
We just loved the location because it really is close to everything, which made us think that it would be a great rental property. The grocery store, post office, restaurants, gas station, museums, kayak rental companies, and historic buildings are all within walking distance. We just remodeled it too and we just love how it looks now! We think you will too!
