Peaceful, comfortable house
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Oliver was very helpful with timely communication. We were in town awaiting a cruise and wanted to spend a few extra days in Ft Lauderdale to catch up with an old friend. Very glad we chose Oliver’s place—well stay here again!

Comfy and clean
The little cottage was comfortable for one person and clean. The bed was very comfortable and I slept well every night. The pictures are not up to date as the vegetation around the cottage is much more overgrown than shows in the picture. Having to manually open and close the large gate was a little annoying but did make it more private. There were a couple of minor issues in the beginning but the host responded immediately and everything was resolved. All in all I had a wonderful stay and would probably stay there again.

Easy Stay!
This is probably the kindest and fun host I have ever had. The beds were comfortable, the location was easy to find, and plenty of towels were provided. While the overall house was cleanly, the furniture had a bit of a foot smell that was not superrrr enjoyable. We also were a bit disappointed as the listing said a hairdryer was provided but upon arrival there was not one we could find. The location in Ft. Lauderdale was great and the area is quiet, safe, and private. Overall can’t give it quite 5 stars, but was a good stay.

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!

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.

The property is a large, enclosed lot with tons of trees that make you feel the lushness of the flora. It is located across the street from a nice sized public area on a branch of the New River.
