Creekside Cottage Private Heated Pool and Boat Lift, Dogs Welcome

Creekside guests will only share the large deck, heated pool, summer kitchen and fenced yard with those in your party. For safety concerns we do not host children under 12yrs due to the proximity of the pool to the entry door. Creekside w/palm tree lined fenced-in yard, pool and summer kitchen in resort setting provide a relaxing atmosphere for romantic getaway, family vacation or just chill-laxing. The beaches of Sanibel Island and Ft. Myers Beach are a short drive away.Creekside Cottage is a detached home with a large private deck and private heated pool located on historic Hendry Creek in South Ft Myers. Creekside property is 728sqft w/ 2bm & 1bth and comfortable open living plan with both kitchen and living room overlooking pool deck and creek in a resort like setting. A palm tree lined fenced-in dog friendly yard, heated pool with in-water bar and large surrounding deck with pool side summer kitchen provide a relaxing atmosphere for romantic getaway, family vacation or just chill-laxing with a BBQ by the pool. The beaches of Sanibel Island and Ft. Myers Beach are a short drive or Lovers key and Dog Beach is a short 20-minute boat ride away from our dock. Boathouse with lift for small boats.

Minnesota Twins Spring training is a short 2.8 mi to Hammond Stadium and Boston Red Sox at JetBlue Park is 8.6 mi away.

For the birdwatchers Creekside is located under the flight path for wading birds that nest in neighboring Lakes Park. Nearly every evening just prior to Sunset Egret’s, Ibis’s, Heron’s and Anhinga’s all overfly the pool sky returning to evening roost. The process reverses as Sunrise begins and the flight heads south for a day of fishing and foraging. Bald Eagles and Osprey are also local residents that enjoy our local waters and the adjoining Estero Bay Aquatic Preserve.

The Creekside and her sister Cypress Cottage are two of the original Cottages built in 1950 that made up the popular Pink Shell Resort on Ft. Myers Beach now known as Pink Shell Beach Resort and Spa. In the late 70’s the resort expanded and needed space and rather than destroy the tiny cottages the owners where offered them free of charge to anyone willing to bear the cost of relocation. In 1979 Flint & Dole moved these two Cottages to their present location. According to the Estero Island Historic Society the Cottages were constructed with local “Island Mahogany”. Current owners purchased the property in December 2013 and began remodeling Creekside in 2014. After the renovations to Creekside were complete the process of converting the other into Cypress Cottage began.

Pleasantly surprised
We were very pleased with the stay. We were in town to visit my Uncle for his 87th birthday. Which happened to take place immediately After coming off a cruise ship in which we were stuffed into for a week. The cottage was a sigh of relief with the spacious rooms and pool to ourselves. Chuck and Cindy greeted us upon arrival and when we had a question, Chuck was answering our request within minutes. We would definitely recommend and book again.

Great Stay!
We had an awesome time! The home was very private and clean. We absolutely loved the pool! The hosts were extremely communicative with any questions and our dogs just had a blast playing in the pool. We were close to several beaches we wanted to visit and after a long day of shelling it was perfect to come back for a dip. We are already planning our next stay!

Outstanding Vacation
My wife and I just spent 4 great days here. Not only are the photos accurate, the cottage is even better when you see it in person. The location is excellent which we expected. Owner greeted us when we arrived and was super friendly and helpful the whole time. Just great vibes and an absolutely adorable place. Thank you!!

Nice & quiet retreat!
If you are looking for a peaceful, relaxing vacation, this is the place! Great cottage in a quiet neighborhood close to shopping, restaurants, Sanibel bridge and beach. The only negative was we dealt with several roaches running through the bathroom & kitchen. More traps would probably take care of it. Other than that, the property was properly represented by the pictures - great pool, swim up bar & BBQ! We would definitely go back again!
