Perfect Cottage In Art District of Gulfport

This beautiful cottage was completely renovated with comfort and relaxation in mind. It is located in the Art District in Gulfport Florida which is within the Waterfront District. This 360 square foot cottage is the second cottage of three located on the Wishing Well property. It has an amazing kitchen with everything you need to cook or entertain friends. There is a large bathroom with a walk-in shower with a rain head! The bedroom has a new queen bed that is very comfortable. The living room has a leather futon perfect for guests. There is a large flat-screen TV in the living room with a DVD player. There is a smaller flat-screen TV in the bedroom.

**Please note that the cottage is perfect for a couple or a family with one or two younger children. It could be a bit tight for four adults, especially as the bathroom is accessed through the bedroom.

All of the shops, restaurants and Gulfport's beach are within a short walk of this cottage. This cottage has a lovely front porch for enjoying the Key West style atmosphere. We have a couple of bicycles at the property for guests to use to ride around town. There is also a large courtyard with a gazebo and gas grille for the enjoyment of guests.

All of Gulfport is within walking or biking distance of the cottage. St. Petersburg with its museums and shopping is just a short 7 minute car ride. Ft. Desoto Park is a 20 minute car ride.

This is a beautiful place in a great little beach town. Come once you will be back again and again. This is the kind of town you only tell your good friends about, lest it get spoiled. Come visit a real Florida beach town...

Gulfport Getaway
Three women stayed four nights. It was a little tight but as we are all good friends we were able to pull it off. The cottage is snug but well-appointed. We could have used a few more wall hooks or shelves for our belongings, but it was as described. We had coffee each morning on the porch and watched the friendly neighbors walk by our cottage. I would visit again. We were a block away from shopping and restaurants. Great location!

A perfect getaway weekend
Delightful little cottage just half a block of off the main Beach Dr., 3 blocks from the beach. Very small but just right for 1-2 people. Clean and very well equipped. A bit loud with two bars nearby but loud not enough to be disturbing. Great coffee on the corner. Highly recommend.

Small nice house great area to bring your dog.
We were there for 12 days ... yes its small but perfect for the 2 of us and our dog, we were not inside much. Perfect front porch to sit on and watch the interesting but nice people walk by to the kava bar. If you like to people watch perfect place. Short 5 min. Walk to pier .... great area to walk your dog. Golfport is a different little down but cute and not as busy as other near by areas. Relaxing area to visit.

Funky Fun
Our cottage in Gulfport was awesome; quaint and cute and very efficient. Not only did we have the space we needed inside the cozy cottage... we also had an inviting front porch to enjoy a cup of coffee or a glass of wine. Make sure you take advantage of the guest bicycles and tour Gulfport. Absolutely adorable!

Wonderful place to stay in Gulfport
Cozy, comfortable, perfect little cottage in Gulfport. Great location: 2-3 block walk in any direction got you to shops, restaurants, bars and music, or the beach. Gulfport Beach on Boca Ciega Bay is just the right size for enjoying the sun, sand, and water without feeling crowded and the sunsets to the west over the water are breathtaking. The owners, David and Margaret, are easy to contact, and are friendly and helpful. Would totally recommend the "Green Cottage" for a happy stay in Gulfport.

A lovely getaway
Yes, the green cottage is small, but it was perfect for two adults and a small senior pupper for a week's stay. It was clean and comfortable, and owner David responded quickly when we had a problem with a dripping A/C unit. Close to the Village Courtyard and Waterfront. We walked almost everywhere, and enjoyed listening to music from the North End Tap House and Kitchen stage every evening. Locals were friendly! St. Pete and St. Pete Beach are a short drive away. Street parking is hard to come by at certain hours so the alley-side parking was a blessing. We loved our stay, hated to leave, and already know we will come back again if David and Margaret will have us!

My grandson and I visited family for a long weekend in Gulfport. The cottage was perfect for our stay. It was close to family and close to everything in Gulfport. Nicely updated and clean. Off street parking. Beach chairs, beach towels and bicycles available for use. Kitchen nicely stocked. Would visit again!

Great for a quick trip in the heart of Gulfport
For just a night or 2 it was great. The cottage is close to everything and met our needs. It was great to be able to use the courtyard to entertain my daughter and her friends who are students at Eckerd College. My only complaints would be lack of seating (there is only one small couch - no chairs), the AC unit cut on and off all night and the window shades did not block all the outside light out so it was difficult to sleep.

Dirty Little Shack
We stayed at the property for a week. This is the worst VRBO we have EVER stayed in. I would upload pictures, but there is no option to do that. This review may sound choppy b/c it has a limit on what you can write. I have no idea how they possibly had gotten all the rave reviews. The only thing that was nice from our stay was the other renters we met (3 houses on one property). First, it is very tiny. We knew that coming in. However, with the public visibility and lack of privacy you needed to keep the blinds closed, which made it feel like a cell. Everything was DIRTY. The walls had years of grimy hand/fingers, especially around sides of doors, light switches, and door handles. The front exterior of the home was worse, lime green siding that is covered with dirt. Friends from the area were appalled by condition of the home - called it squeezy. On arrival, getting dog settled in I spilled some of the dog water on the floor and wiped it up, the paper towel was BLACK. Thats how dirty the floors were. I mopped them three times to clean, not what I wanted to do on vacation. There were baseboard pieces missing and what was there was covered dirt and a lot of dog hair. We rent a homes with kitchens so we don't have to eat out a lot. After checking the kitchen, the fridge, the coffee pot, garbage can cabinet, dish rack, and oven were disgusting. Neither my husband or I felt comfortable eating there. Garbage cabinet had coffee grounds, stains, and left-over dried food in it. Fridge had dead bug, dried liquid, and left over crumbs. I was going to wash two coffee mugs for coffee but even the dish rack was disgustingly dirty. The oven had hundreds of "no see'ems" crawling all over it, and roaches at night. Good thing they had spray for us to use or others left but slept with all the lights on. Woke up with several bug bites on my legs and stomach during our stay.

Loved this little cottage
Gulfport is a quirky, quaint, artsy village on the water. Great place to have fun and relax. Beach, restaurants, dog park, tennis and pickleball courts are a short walk. The cottage is steps from the center of town. It is clean and nicely appointed. There are two nice bicycles available as well. Thanks David for a great vacation. Bob and Robin from Rhode Island.
