This home is just one mile from Downtown Lakeland, Dixieland Historic District, and all of Lakeland’s top restaurants and bars; and is in an absolutely perfect location for exploring all of Lakeland, Tampa, Orlando, Disney World, and Florida beaches.

This 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom cottage was curated with vintage furnishings from local vendors that gives the most eclectic Florida vibe and feels like you stepped right into a Pinterest board.

The kitchen has been remodeled with a stainless steel fridge, a convection microwave oven for baking, and a stovetop. The kitchen also includes a coffee maker, dishware, silverware, cooking utensils, paper towels, trash bags, and cleaning products.

The living room and dining area are great spots to entertain. Sign in to your Hulu, Netflix, or HBO Max on our Roku TV, or play the plethora of games we provide in the Florida room.

About the host

Hosted by Austin St. Jean

Host profile image
Hello, Austin & Mikayla here!

We are Lakeland natives who have fell in love with hosting guests at our properties. Since 2016, we've been traveling and staying at various short-term rentals around the country. After having unforgettable times exploring, we wanted to offer our own properties to guests in June of 2021.

We felt pulled to bring people to our wonderful city to see all that it has to offer. From the beautiful lakes to amazing restaurants and shops, Lakeland has become a staple when visiting Central Florida.

We hope that you have nothing but comfort and a memorable experience when you stay with us. Cheers!
