My husband and I stayed in the Floating Cottage June 16th through the 19th. 2023. Everything in the cottage was as it looks in the listing, beautifully set up, clean, and well stocked. The communication from the owner, Kim, was amazing! We never had a question about anything as all information was provided well ahead of time, and again right before we arrived.
The bed was very comfortable, as well as the other furniture, and we had plenty of room. We were very impressed with this accommodation. The pots and pans were high-end and the eating and cooking utensils were obviously new and well maintained. Everything in this house was perfection.
We brought our 16 ft Gheenoe skiff and tied it up to the dock next to the cottage. It was so convenient to just step out onto the dock, hop in the boat, and go out on the St. Johns River. Boats can also be rented at the marina.
The cottage is nestled into a quiet corner of the marina, and we loved sitting out on the deck over the water, enjoying the view.
Connie's Deli is just up the ramp from the cottage. We ate there several times. The food is freshly made, delicious, and a great value. Service is also top notch.
Downtown Sanford historic district, a short drive away, is beautiful with brick streets, gorgeous homes, shops and restaurants. Nature trails, parks, and bike trails, are among many other things to see in the area.
We definitely recommend the Floating Cottage!
