Spacious Charming Hyde Park Cottage - Walk Everywhere!
Location, location, location! Welcome to our Historic Hyde Park cottage blocks from Bayshore, steps to Bern’s Steakhouse, and a short walk to Hyde Park Village and numerous restaurants and watering holes!!! This charming 2/1 (queen/twin), second story carriage house is in the heart of Historic Hyde Park and SoHo, and is a perfect getaway for the vacationer, remote worker/professional, Tampa Convention Center visitors (2 miles/easy Uber), MacDill AFB visitors, parent of local college kids, or locals who want a “staycation” in the city.
IF YOU DO NOT SEE YOUR DATES AVAILABLE, PLEASE SEND A MESSAGE! We may have some flexibility in our calendar.
The 850sf cottage is on the 2nd floor above the garage in a detached building from the main house. There is a flight of stairs behind the outside door, and another lockable door at the top of the stairs. We are open to longer term stays; please inquire via the message string. Please ask about amenities in our well-equipped kitchen. The master bedroom enjoys an upgraded Nectar queen mattress. Enjoy the plush Turkish cotton bath towels!
The cottage has a private entrance, well-equipped kitchen, full-size fridge, washer/dryer, dishwasher, central heat and air, fast WiFi with enhanced security with automatic VPN, hardwood floors throughout, new living room furniture, a smart TV, assortment of board games for rainy days, plenty of storage/countertop space, and off street parking. The cottage has two bedrooms with a queen in the master, and a twin bed with a desk and reading chair in the small bedroom. We provide YouTube TV (cable substitute), and all the other popular streaming services are available with your logon credentials. Don’t forget to log out before you leave! In addition, the Samsung TV has numerous viewing options.
Off-street parking is generally available in the driveway as the owner uses the rear garage door alley entrance for vehicle access; the owner will advise on the message string should he need the driveway during your stay. A BBQ grill is available for guest use on the back patio; directions are included in the House Manual. Guests are welcome to use the outdoor furniture on the back porch of the house.
We are close to the Tampa Convention Center, MidFlorida Amphitheater, Amalie Arena, Raymond James Stadium, Armiture Works/The Heights Public Market, downtown, Tampa International Airport, Ybor City, Tampa’s downtown Riverwalk, Hyde Park Village, and MacDill AFB. Busch Gardens is about 20 minutes away, and Pinellas County beaches are about 45 minutes away.

Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Pam

I'm a Tampa Bay native and renovated my c. 1925 Craftsman Bungalow that I have owned for 30 years in Hyde Park, S. Tampa in 2017-2018. During this time I lived in my detached 2br/1ba garage apartment. Back in my house since 2019, I have shared the cottage with travelers for 6 years! I have hosted several folks from around the world in my home via Couchsurfing, so I'm familiar with the hosting concept. I frequently use this online community as well as short-term rentals to stay with locals when I travel the world. "See the world" and "collect experiences over things" are my mottos!
