ザマリーゴールドペントハウス-豪華で快適な歴史的なダウンタウンへの短い散歩

The Penthouse is my favorite in the classy old Victorian house with its classic hardwood floors and high ceilings. I even enjoy hearing the bells of St Peters Church across the street.

Yes that staircase is challenging but there is also one inside in the hall that's a bit easier and straight! To get to it go in the entrance on the ground floor at the ramp. There is a hand painted sign on the door that says Penthouse and the Caribbean. The view from up there is pretty sweet though so I hope you'll come again.

There is something really nice about staying downtown in a beautiful small town. We are travelers ourselves and every time we travel we come back with a list of things that we can do to help our guests feel more at home. So glad that you enjoyed your stay and thanks for taking the time to review your stay.

It really is convenient to downtown Deland. We stay there from time to time and enjoy walking the short distance to Friday night at Artisan Alley with the farmers market and food vendors. Remember to take a picture at the "Angel Wings" and then before you leave take another with our Butterfly Wings on the grounds of the Marigold.

We are so sorry you fell on our ramp and I can hear the frustration in your review over that accident. We do have first aid kits in every unit but being the cleaners' first day on the job, she couldn't find it. When she reached us we drove directly there but she said you were anxious to get home from the New Years eve weekend so you drove off. In hindsight I should have contacted you to see that you were truly alright so I do apologize for that. In all the years we have owned it no one has ever fallen on the ramp. But accidents to happen so to help prevent that from happening again we painted yellow and black stripes along the edges of the ramp. It is a Victorian style home built in 1900 with the exception that the kitchen was added in 2011. Our furniture is either new or an antique so I guess your overall impression of your weekend there was colored by your fall. There are two entrances to this apartment, one by the ramp with the ground floor hallway door, the second by the upper deck using the spiral staircase. Key lock boxes are by both doors.

I think you may have been here for the Rolex 24 race which I hear is a blast. Hope you'll book with us again next time.

I love the location of the Deland Marigold- so close to everything in town. You can walk to all of our festivals, restaurants and Stetson as well as our local Play House- the Athens Theatre. After a play walk one more block for a great glass of wine at the Elusive Grape or dinner at any one of our hometown restaurants. Another benefit of walking through town is you get to see numerous murals, sculptures and art galleries. Find Artisan Alley on a Friday night and you'll be delighted by a farmers market with local foods and a great beer garden.

Thank you Molly for those kind words, we too love the Marigold. When I was decorating it, we selected some pieces that were as old as the house- built in 1901! That blanket box at the foot of the bed is almost like a puzzle cube to get into it. And the "guitar" dresser in the second bedroom adds a little funk to the place.

One of the best things about the Marigold is how very close it is to Mainstreet. A nice little walk will get you to the many great restaurants and shopping and even to the Stetson campus. Also its nice to stroll along Artisan Alley on Friday nights while enjoying a glass of wine or picking up local home made items or food. It is the place to be on Friday nights and its sandwiched between Cafe DaVinci's and Persimmon Hollow's craft beer garden. The original name of deland was Persimmon Hollow before Henry Deland officially started the town.

Thank you for great review. We strive to have everything our guests would need in a stay and we love to hear that it was useful. Since Deland is so close to famous beaches, Daytona and New Smyrna, I like to provide beach supplies to encourage people to visit them. Plus we have the St John's River so we sometimes host Fisherman. We also host Nascar fans and Bikers who come for Bike Week and Octoberfest. I hope you took a selfie with the stained glass butterfly in our butterfly garden. If you did please post on #DelandButterfly.

Thanks we are owner operators and strive to make every stay great. Deland is a wonderful town to visit and so many things to do. We had a sky dive team stay for a competition at Sky Dive Deland one week and then a biker couple in town for Bike Week. We are also near the St John's River and one repeat guests brings his boat to go after crappy and bass. Its so fun meeting people who make their stay at the Deland Marigold and we are starting to get selfies with the stained glass butterfly popping up on the internet. So next time you're near, walk into the butterfly garden and "Get Your Wings On!"

Bike Week fills up this town so book early if you can. Call us if you find everything taken as we often have another place open. And we also are one of the few nice places that accept (most) pets.
