Fun little cottage in a great neighborhood!
We loved this cottage for its location and privacy. It's got a great fenced in yard with parking for 2 behind a gate. The house is small and a little quirky, but awesome for a quick stay in Fort Lauderdale. The landlord is absolutely the best!! Great communication! Our flight was delayed and we arrived very late, but this was no problem. Would definitely stay here again!

Riverwalk cottage
The location of this cottage was perfect for anyone who enjoys walking. The scenic Riverwalk is very close & I used it every day. Also a great place for dog owners. Big yard & parks literally across the street. The area is very dog friendly. The cottage was as described with nice clean floors! Host was very friendly & communicative. If we return to this area we would stay here again.

Beautiful cottage and a great host!
I desperately needed a place to stay with my dog due to my building having to do maintenance in my apartment. I am so happy I came across this rental. The cottage was so cozy and quaint! The owner (Oliver) was so nice and accommodating. The yard is spectacular, especially if you have a dog. My dog had so much room to run around and play on. The location is in a fantastic area, and I was only a few minutes away from Las Olas. Many parks to walk to in the area, are great neighborhoods to walk around as well. I will recommend it to friends!

My husband, two kids and two dogs stayed at this charming cottage for over a month and love every minute of it! The front yard is great for the fur babies, fenced in parking, and you can walk to the river walk which we did most every day! Oliver and his dad were so lovely great communicators and let us in on the local spots. I highly recommend this quaint little cottage.
