Nice Rural Setting
Posted May 1, 2024 on HomeAwayThis was a nice place to stay away from the city. The rural setting, birds, and wildlife made resting up from a day of being a tourist easy. Getting to points of interest was simple and LaBelle has good restaurants and shopping for anything you need or forgot. Beverly is very pleasant and quick to resolve any issues - it's nice having her right on the property.

Zero Communication
Posted Mar. 20, 2024 on HomeAwayI was very excited to stay in this cottage and fish in the pond on the property. The cottage is cute, clean, comfortable and well appointed like everyone says. I used both the outdoor kitchen and fire pit. The tame deer were amazing and the border collie very sweet. Also enjoyed watching the cows. Very peaceful.
My issues involve communication. I reached out to Beverly via VRBO the week before my stay to let her know (as requested) I’d like to fish in her pond. I never got a response. When I arrived at the cottage I found it unlocked. I went in, connected to WiFi and texted Beverly to let her know I was there. No response. I texted 45 minutes later and said I was running out for supplies. No response. When I returned she was out in the yard and gave a half hearted wave. I figured for sure she’d come introduce herself while I was unloading. Nope.
I felt awkward at this point. The next morning I tried calling twice and couldn’t get through. I also sent another text. No response. I’d come to fish in the pond, which by the way is on the other side of Beverly’s house and not even visible from the cottage, and didn’t feel comfortable fishing outside someone’s house where I wasn’t welcome. I found other places to fish.
I left this morning, and this afternoon got a text from Beverly saying sorry, her phone’s been down. If that was the case, why not stop by to meet me, leave a note, respond to email or send smoke signals? I would’ve loved to have the same experience as others.

Absolutely peaceful
Posted Mar. 16, 2024 on HomeAwayThis beautiful place is old time Florida. Majestic Oaks with tons of Spanish Moss, hearing owls in the evening, feeding the deer, talking to the cows, I was in heaven. House was perfect for my daughter and I. If you need a break from life, this is it.

A serene getaway
Posted Mar. 9, 2024 on HomeAwayWhat a perfect escape. I spent 4 nights and was just what I needed to disconnect from the hectic routine of day-to-day in Miami. Accommodations were comfortable (bed was magnificent), clean, and well appointed. The environment was perfect for enjoying solitude. My little dog loved it, and actually made a friend with Riley. I can't wait to return.

I am a native Floridian. For many years, I have grown more and more discouraged at the out-of-control growth in our state. Our visit to the King Ranch filled me with joy to see that “old Florida” still exists in some places!
The cottage is lovely. It is immaculate and very comfortable, especially the dual seats reclining couch and the large bed! We so appreciated the snacks, bottled water, and Keurig coffee available for us upon our arrival. We really enjoyed looking at the photo books of Beverly’s rescue animals.
While we did not utilize the outdoor kitchen, it is an amazing space, and given the opportunity to return, we would definitely take advantage of it. The property is lovely. What a delight to have four deer sleeping in the yard a short distance from our front door! We also enjoyed sitting on the front porch and watching all of the raccoons enjoy their dinner!
It made our hearts happy to be in a place that is so wonderfully cared for by a person who clearly has a nurturing spirit for God’s creatures! If you are looking for a beautiful example of “old Florida”, a quiet, peaceful retreat, I highly recommend Beverly’s cottage!

New years stay
Posted Jan. 1, 2024 on HomeAwayWe had a great time enjoyed the outdoor kitchen area and the fire pit a lot. The deer were fun to feed and watch would definitely recommend it to others.
