About this property

Enjoy a bit of history in 'Old Florida.' Step back in time and rent a beautifully renovated 'railroad cottage' in Boca Grande's historic district. Tarpon fishing capital of the world.

Best location on the island. Less than two blocks from historic downtown with restaurants, shopping, and more. Five blocks to the Gulf of Mexico. One block to the world famous Gasparilla Inn whose guests have included some of America's most prominent families for over a century.

Open floor plan with three bedrooms, newly renovated kitchen, two renovated bathrooms, and lots of light. Beautiful sun porch with living and breakfast areas. All brand new appliances. Sleeps 6. Great for two to three couples, families, or a romantic getaway cottage for two.

Fish the famous Boca Grande Pass in tarpon season, back-country fishing for snook, redfish, and trout year-round. Go boating and visit the outer islands for dining and exploring including Cabbage Key. Walk some of America's most beautiful beaches with world class shelling. Bike, roller blade, and golf cart rentals nearby to enjoy the island's bike path that follows the old railroad tracks. Lovely historic churches on island within walking distance (Episcopalian, Methodist, Baptist, and Catholic).

Amenities include cable TV, broadband internet, and washer/dryer.

Old Florida cottage

Adorable cottage, quite roomy for 2-4 people. Not fancy but well kept and updated kitchen and baths. Nice mango tree in backyard. Within walking distance of downtown restaurants and shops. We’ll be back!
