It is a tradition in Florida to throw up a fisherman's shack in the back yard for guests and annoying relatives. That's how Susie's Cottage began, many years ago. And the funky construction quirks of the original can still be seen in today's renovated version. Don't expect the walls to be plumb or the layout to make sense! But paint and funky furnishings have done wonders. A/C, ceiling fans, full kitchen, and a cute (but very small!!!) bathroom (shower only). The cottage is the February retreat of Susie, my sister, a retired opera singer (she painted the heron bathroom door). Off season (April through January), it is available to vacationers who want privacy and some Old Florida charm.
My street is a short, unpaved road off Stringfellow Rd. ("the" road on Pine Island, which runs 18 miles from north to south. The Cottage is at the back of the property, behind the main house and separated from it by a trellis upon which Carolina jessamine grows. Guests have sole occupancy of the cottage, including the little lanai and the secret back deck, as well as a parking space. My goal is to make you feel that Susie's Old-Florida Cottage is your home during your stay.
Susie's Cottage is tucked in behind Seagrape Escape (the park-model trailer where I live in winter. It is invisible from the road. Gail, my manager, lives a few streets away and is there to help you should you have questions or run into problems. The garden comes every other Sunday.

Summary: This was my 3rd or 4th stay at Suzie's Cottage. It is perfect for me and has everything I need to be comfortable and feel at home. The location is convenient to the grocery stores, shops at the center and the bike path. Quiet and secluded, the gardens are peaceful and relaxing. Inside the cottage, funky, colorful and artistic decor mimic the style of the Matlacha community.

Summary: We just wanted a quiet place to escape life for a little bit. We were hoping for a more artsy eclectic area but the quiet fishing town was good enough for our needs. The town was pretty quiet and the area was still rebuilding from a hurricane a few years ago. The property was super comfy and quaint. Very homey feel. Owner was very accommodating and stayed in communication well.
