Quiet neighborhood, beautiful cottage!
I stayed with my family and two pets and we loved it so much we are already planning the next trip. Chuck was very responsive from the moment I booked the cottage and as a result, check in was a breeze. The pool was fantastic, we loved the yard, and the cottage had all the amenities we needed. We all loved our stay, definitely five stars-thank you Chuck!

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.

Absolutely perfect place to stay. Has everything and more. Beautiful outside oasis with pool and BBQ just for the renter. Great location to everything including the beach. Probably our favorite VRBO we have ever stayed in. We will definitely be back.

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!

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.

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!

Beautiful tropical escape
My husband, dad and I stayed here over Christmas. The cottage is beautifully decorated but still very comfortable and home like. Chuck and Cindy were great to work with. They personally meet and greet you upon arrival. Always available as needed but otherwise leave you on your own to enjoy the cottage. Highlight has to be the private deck and pool area. Like your own personal oasis. Definitely leave enough time to spend there. Nice location in Ft Myers w restaurants, shopping and entertainment all within close proximity. Highly recommend and will return again. Bonus that you can travel with your dog.

Magical fun cottage and pool to enjoy
Very lovely place. I just love the pool, pool tiki bar and tv one can watch from the pool. Very cute cottage and amazing kitchen. The boat deck has swings that are relaxing to swing in. Magical place to get away too. Owners live in the cottage next door and have darkened the windows so that one has privacy at the pool. Short drive to restuarants. Very nice neighborhood.

Beautiful property and excellent hosts
We spent a week here and enjoyed every minute. The accommodation is clean, very comfortable, well maintained. Our hosts, Chuck and Cindy, met us upon arrival and welcomed us, making sure we knew what was where, etc.. Communication was excellent and quick and Chuck and Cindy were available whenever we needed them but if we didn't need anything, they remained out of sight and left us to enjoy the fantastic deck, pool and pool bar. We toured downtown Fort Myers, with plenty of restaurants and bars to enjoy, went out to Pine Island and just relaxed by the pool. It was perfect, exactly what we needed. We hope to stay here again in the future. Highly recommended for just getting away and relaxing.

Perfect little get away
This was a perfect little get away. We were central to all of the beaches and areas we wanted to adventure to. The home is amazingly clean and just felt so comfortable. We really enjoyed the set up of the pool and the home in general. Being able to have our dog with us was a real plus. We will be back for Spring Training and a college tour with our teenage son. Chuck and Cindy were very welcoming and provided us with some great tips for the area. My only wish is that we could have stayed longer.

Chuck and Cindy were wonderful hosts. Their cottage was exactly what we hoped for. Everything was clean, organized and comfortable. The pool and tiki/bbq bar were amazing. After a day at the ocean, we grilled, went swimming and relaxed by the pool. Loved the TV in the tiki! There was a canoe the hosts provided for some creek time, also. We recommend Creekside and can’t wait to come back.

The heated pool was terrific - spent many hours in it and lounging by it. Great location central to FMB, Sanibel and shopping. A great getaway in a quiet neighborhood for two or four people

The Creekside Cottage is fantastic! The Tiki pool and outdoor kitchen are amazing, we enjoyed these perks tremendously. Even when it was raining and thundering, perfect time to jump into the pool and listen to the rain and thunder, it was magical and we also saw some magnificent birds flying over us several times. The cottage was very clean and had everything you might need. It was also very quiet and peaceful at night which made it for a good night’s sleep. Our weekend was absolutely lovely here! :)

My son and I were in for a tennis Tournament for him, and had hoped to find a place that allows dogs. as our dog goes everywhere with us! And in other travels we have found that it is always more fun to be a guest at someone's wonderful home. This Cottage was everything! it was absolutely perfect. Chuck greeted us kindly and gave us a great tour, mentioning all of where we may need to access (eg, grocer, etc.). They had a nice little referral manual inside as well. it was very close to our tournament, and more generally excellently located to all things fort myers - the beaches, shopping, the ocean, etc. the property itself is perfect. the dog had a yard to run in. the pool is - well, I desire to build the same! we did not take advantage of it as much as we had hoped given the tournament, however we have vowed to come back and use the grill and pool everyday. the cottage was perfect for the both of us - a room each. the kitchen is wonderfully remodeled and had everything we needed to cook, as well as a nice sectional couch to relax on after a long day of tennis. we look forward to coming back! thank you Chuck!

This place offers way more than any web pics can show! We just returned from 2 beautiful weeks there and we were sad to leave. From the recently updated interiors to the gorgeous swimming pool with seats in and outside the pool, to the grill and bar area you can't ask for much more. Normally that would be enough, but both Chuck and Cindy are super friendly and always available if you need anything. The location is close to shopping, restaurants and the beach. Don't wait on this one too long or you'll miss a great vacation. Would not hesitate to book again!!!
