Are you looking for the perfect home away from home for your next escapade with family and friends? Then, look no further than this charming waterfront cottage in the heart of the lively Bonita Springs! This home away from home comprises two separate cottages across the street from each other.

Enjoy an unbeatable location within walking distance to the Historic District of Bonita Springs - you can access the path adjacent to the home to walk or bike through Island Park and catch a quick workout or take a relaxing stroll under a canopy of majestic Oak, Banyan, and Buttonwood trees and bridge over the Imperial River which takes you right to the heart of town. While this property is conveniently close to downtown and right across from Island Park, you'll also be near several local attractions, including additional parks, Barefoot Beach, the Hertz Arena, and Bonita Fairways Club Golf. 

The biggest cottage was originally built in 1937 and is named the "Tucker House," a beautiful example of classic Florida architecture. The welcoming wood and cedar panels throughout create the feel of a riverfront lodge, with the open full kitchen (set up with full-size, modern appliances) allowing plenty of room for good times. Fresh air is perhaps best enjoyed out on the comfortably furnished screened porch. But those who want to be right on the river will find plenty of space to relax in the covered outdoor gazebo. Have fun grilling or just enjoying the sunshine in the lovely backyard! The Sonos system is perfect for setting the mood with your favorite music.

The second cottage is perfect for a small family vacation or a romantic getaway for two. Step through the front door and discover a cozy, inviting interior restored in period fashion. Stock up the fridge and prepare anything from your morning coffee to full-course dinners in the full kitchen. Dine together at the adjacent table or head outside, fire up the gas grill, and gather on the patio for the perfect alfresco experience. You'll also find a fire ring to enjoy as the sun sets. Within walking distance to the Historic District of Bonita Springs, you can access the path across from the home to walk or bike through Island Park and catch a quick workout or take a relaxing stroll under a canopy of majestic Oak, Banyan, and Buttonwood trees and bridge over the Imperial River which takes you right to the heart of town. Step back in time, relax, and enjoy the charm and peacefulness of Old Florida.
