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!

Mold smell made us sick.
Oliver was great..that is until we had a problem. When we arrived we both were overwhelmed with the fragrance smell, my husband got an instant headache and felt like throwing up. Oliver said we could remove the fragrance. We did. It took a couple days to dissipate. I noticed a mold/ mildew smell becoming stronger and stronger. Which was making me sick. I had a constant headache which would get better when I left during the days. On the 4th night I woke from my sleep feeling like my head was pounding, I couldn’t take it anymore. I slept in my car the rest of that night. The windows didn’t have screens so no way to get fresh air. We also noticed our food was all warm. The fridge was not working. Our food spoiled. We had purchased 150.00 in groceries for the week. We decided we couldn’t stay any longer. I didn’t want to feel sick my whole vacation. We called Oliver. He was very combative. He kept saying I was accusing him of covering mold. That is for him to deal with. All we wanted was to pay for what we had stayed and move on. He offered to pay for our milk. Nothing else he refused to refund us. He said there was no smell, his friend himself and his cleaning lady said so…I assure you. If you have a sense of smell you will be overwhelmed by the fresheners and the musty mold smell. We had our 3 dogs with, we absolutely loved the yard space for our dogs. We DID NOT want to stay in a hotel. Which is what we did. This ruined most of our trip.

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!

Had the best time at this charming cottage!
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.

Cottage at Sailboat Bend
The property was cute and quaint. There is a large lawn when you first enter the property in front of the cottage. The cottage has a lot of charm, character, and is surrounded by lush plant life. A gorgeous 120 year old tree lives right next to the cottage's deck. Oliver and his father were both friendly, personable, and attentive to questions and recommendations. Checking in and out was easy and hassle free. We had a great stay!
