The cottage was everything we wanted and more. We were greeted by Vivian and entered into the most relaxing and immaculate cottage filled with music ,candle scent and prefilled refrigerator with snacks to make us feel right at home. We were recently displaced from the hurricanes and under a tremendous amount of stress. But as soon as we were greeted early for our stay she made us feel welcome and at ease. The views of the bay were gorgeous and the morning sunrise coming through the front windows are breathtaking. Their cottage was filled with everything we could ever need. They were also very accomodating when our length of stay was up in the air due to our next rental being not available.

We spent two marvelous weeks on a staycation here while repairs were made to our home. We won’t wait for another flood to come back – this one is on the list! The cottage is exactly as pictured, eclectically curated with just the right amount of kitch to remind you its 100 years old. The pantry is plentiful and the hosts are warm and welcoming. The location is perfect, just a 15-minute walk to the busy Main Street shops and restaurants. However, once you step onto the front porch its easy to forget where you are as you take in the lush surroundings, peaceful view across the bay with great sunrises each morning. ##### Scott S.

We had a fantastic stay at this cottage!! My wife and I are originally from the area and were down visiting friends and family for Christmas. The location is phenomenal and so convenient for us being that we have people to connect with all over Pinellas and Hillsborough counties. We loved walking our dog along the bayside into downtown Safety Harbor to enjoy the restaurants and shops, and waking up every morning to the sunrise over the bay was an awesome way to start our morning. The hosts were extremely accommodating, they even had the place decorated for Christmas when we arrived. It was a five star experience from top to bottom, we will definitely be staying here again when we make our annual trips to the Tampa Bay Area!! ##### Colby B.

We could not have been happier with the place or with our hosts, Bob and Vivian. They thought of everything to make this place a home away from home. We enjoyed our daily walks to Main St and the screened porch with the lovely view of the bay. I got some awesome pictures of a thunderstorm that rolled over the bay. We would definitely stay here again. ##### Kristen M.

Out of the pages of a magazine decor and surroundings yet comfortable enough to call home for our 3 week visit. Hospitality was above and beyond from owners. ##### Patty J.

I’ve stayed in many VRBO / Air B and B and they were absolutely amazing. Their cottage is clean, cozy, cool, and full of character. The view is spectacular and they ensure you have everything you would ever need! I have told so many others about their place already. Not one complaint. Beautiful lanai. Perfect location. Worth every cent. Thank you Robert and Vivian for everything! Best VRBO experience EVER. 5 stars!!!!! ##### Verified traveller Stayed 9 nights in Sep 2021 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Donna C. 16 Jun 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great location We loved the nearly 100 year old property with a great view of the bay. It was cozy and in a great location. We could easily walk to Safety Harbor or to the nearby park. We enjoyed sitting in the screened porch looking at the view. ##### Donna C.
