The Mango Cottage
(Separate structure from our main house, "The Mango House".)
As you arrive at our well lit 3-car driveway (with the only video camera on the premises) you will open the gate to our winding, tropical garden walkway (evenings are lit by a vintage peace sign) with patches of sunshine beaming through the stately old mango trees. (We have 5 mango trees on the property.)
The cottage entry has a private patio area with an attractive modern divider (offering a mini-gas griddle for outside grilling upon request) with 2 lounge chairs and a table for 4, shaded under our mango colored umbrella. The scenery is "guarded" by our metal eagle with a 4' wing span (formerly the finial from the original Pompano Beach Bank) overlooking a lush, green back yard, lone mango tree and a 10' yellow Elder flowering bush (almost) always in bloom. At night, our 4' hanging star and a canopy of tiny lights will brighten your Florida evening.
Once you enter The Mango Cottage, you are immediately impressed with its vaulted ceilings, invigorating "whisper quiet" air conditioning, calming window views and fresh Floridian decor, featuring some of the artwork from watercolorist, photographer and property owner, John Coté.
The bedroom has an incredibly comfortable king size bed with (4 king pillows) soft linens, a seating area and large walk-in closet. John's most recent panoramic photograph "Silver King Sunset" has found its place above the king size bed! The unexpected tarpon jumping during the early evening colors gives quite a romantic tone! There is also a large wooden luggage bench suitable for 2 carry-ons. NOTE: Feel free to move luggage bench into walk-in closet, if you prefer.
Make sure you utilize the Bluetooth (HOMEWERKS (MangoCottage) for your music pleasure, accessed in the bathroom! Music icon must be selected in bathroom light pad. Your selections can easily be enjoyed throughout cottage.
In the living area, there is a modern "Florida orange" chair near some of John's watercolors and across from the roomy Bahamian-style futon (with a queen firm mattress, also with soft linens), which overlooks John's newest panoramic photograph - "6 Storms" from Flamingo, FL, at the cottage entry - Yes, John captured from his vantage point, actually 6 separate, darkened rainclouds storming all in a row against the wild open Flamingo waterway!
Part of any conversation, will be relaxing at the modern bar-height dining table for 4, along side of the lit bar with its wine glasses for 4. Perfect for entertaining, to watch a movie or concert in this, your cozy Mango Cottage!
The Mango Cottage includes WIFI, 2 tv's, a full kitchen with large and deep stainless steel sink with a mini 18" dishwasher and tropical fine dinnerware. The view from the kitchen sink window and bedroom window is the lush green, impressive mango tree + a blossoming tree with lovely fragrance. The large mango tree offers a hammock (upon request).
Note: Mango trees typically flower in January/February.
By the way, we offer our very own frozen ORGANIC Mango Pureé from our bountiful Mango crop so you can create your own tropical smoothie (blender provided). We would be happy to deliver our frozen mango packets to your freezer upon your request while still available.
In addition, The Mango Cottage offers 2 beach chairs (stored by gate hose station), a sand umbrella with shoulder strap for easy carrying and 2 black "turtle" beach towels rolled and placed inside the hot pink beach tote to use during your stay (stored on the hooks in the utility room). At the inside of the cottage gate and walkway, there is a hose for your personal use to wash off sand from feet, chairs, etc...
For our Canadian travelers, we have a cribbage board and cards (kept in the bedside drawer).

We also have a large fenced in backyard that will bring joy to your dog[s] as they romp around. However, we do require that your dogs be supervised at all times while outside.

Om vÀrden
John & Michelle Coté Àr vÀrd
John was born in Maine and raised in Bedford, New Hampshire, where he became a young expert fisherman in all the many brooks and streams. That is until at the age of 12, his family moved to Fort Lauderdale, where he was profoundly astonished on the size of the saltwater fish he was catching off the Sunrise & Las Olas Bridges, beaches, Hutchinson Island and Biscayne Bay. Sea trout 9 1/2 lbs, bonefish 10 lbs, snook 26 lbs, tarpon 120 lbs and numerous bass off Alligator Alley in the Everglades. Needless to say, through the years we have had many a fish feast for our family of 6. John's also a graphic designer, fine artist, professional photographer specializing in panoramics, also a writer and lifelong, competitive softball player.
Miss Michelle is a true native and weathered Hurricanes Betsy and Cleo from the '60s and all that followed, but is still amused to think of her father's memory of surviving the worst hurricane he ever experienced in 1938, not in Florida, but in the valley of SW New Hampshire where after the storm there were cows in the trees, ... "which made it easy to milk them" (John's humor)! So she was raised, not fearing the hurricanes, with her calming and meticulous mother from Wisconsin taking care of all the preparations and her father securing all the windows, property and keeping the tone more like an adventure that would unfold! But instead, watching the display of our Creator God's awesome power! Then after the storm, appreciating the spectacular sun appearing, the glistening green grass and the colorful flowers rejoicing! Yes, we do live in a tropical paradise! John insisted that I mention that I homeschooled 4 children (10 year age span) for 15 years - So, I guess you could say I was a pretty good manager.
God is good!
