Whimsical cottage is located in owner's backyard.
The cottage is located in the owner's backyard. Owner's one page of rules include that you can have no visitors either overnight or for several minutes. We were visiting or daughter and granddaughter who live in town. This is at odds with VRBO's ads that you have the whole house to yourself.

Catherine’s Cottage
Parrot Cove is the perfect tiny house, clean and safe. Catherine has thought of everything you might need for a short or an extended stay. I thoroughly enjoyed my seven weeks and plan to return next year. The location behind the main house is within walking distance of anything you might need-library, Publix, restaurants, shops. Catherine is a great hostess, always accommodating and respectful of your privacy. Highly recommend.

My private retreat
I traveled with friends to Lake Worth and needed my own space near them. Charming Parrot Cove was perfect. Nestled in the quite historic cottage district of the town I felt safe and very much at home. You don’t need a car here but a bike. Everyone was so friendly when I walked around the neighborhood. Christine welcomed me personally my first morning and kept an eye on me for the remainder of my stay. Christine provided coffee, muffins for my first morning breakfast. And wine for the afternoon. How cool is that! The tiny house is modestly appointed with all the necessary items in the kitchen to make simple meals. But why would you when you are a short walk to some great restaurants. My favorite was The Beach Club at the golf course overlooking the Intracostal Waterway. I highly recommend this private retreat for singles or couples. It was sad to say good bye to Christine as we had such great conversations. Thank you Christine for a wonderful stay

Perfect, Private and Relaxing
Michelle and I just wanted to get away for a nice quiet weekend but be able to go do new things in a new place. The Lake Worth community near the shore is just the kind of jewel we were looking for. Our host, Catherine takes great pride in making the experience one to remember. The small cabin was better than any hotel and the location was like a fairy tale. Catherine's thoughtfulness in ensuring that ever detail in anticipating guests needs. The grounds were immaculate and the cottage was spotless. We fully recommend this property and we will definitely be returning to area and would like to stay here again. We employed many of the recommendations that Catherine provided for places for entertainment and dining. Chuck and Michelle Topeka, KS

COZY HISTORIC COTTAGE=PERFECTION
Lovely small space for a couple or single guest. Every detail was lovingly thought of. It is situated in back of owners historic cottage with lush landscaping on a quiet side street within a 2 block walk to a few nice restaurants on Lucerne Avenue. No driving needed! The interior of the cottage is nicely decorated with high quality furnishings, kitchenware, linens, bath products are all there for your use. A much appreciated bonus was arriving to a mini refrigerator filled with a delicious assortment of foods to enjoy. No need to run to a grocery store. I also enjoyed the outdoor shower, although not enclosed was private as it is behind a large cluster of rose bushes. The BBQ grill was perfect for a quick meal as you dine outside at a lovely patio table with umbrella for shade. Don't hesitate to stay here at Saffron & Rose cottage with the perfect host, Catherine! Thanks for a memorable stay. Nice to know we made a new friend in Lake Worth! Quiet....Safe....Historic Parrot Cove Neighborhood.....near golf course with a restaurant.....close to Lake Worth Beach J & J

Absolutely Wonderful
A charming and lovely cottage that has everything (and more!) that you need for a relaxing and enjoyable stay. Catherine has taken great care to see to it that her guests needs are well met from comfortable sleeping, to a kitchen well equipped to make a snack or a meal, to luxurious towels and bath products to entertainment if you just wish a night in with a movie (and microwaved popcorn). If you want to relax and sit outside at the bistro table or whip up something on the grill you can do that while enjoying the various plants and trees in the yard. A great start to the day was sitting outside with a cup of tea and a book while the morning woke around you.Catherine is the perfect host....available if you need her but never intrusive. Do yourself a favor and take advantage of all this property has to offer.....so much more pleasant and personal than a cold, cookie cutter hotel room. The area is quiet and peaceful.....you will never hear noises in the middle of the night from the room next door or feet running down the hallway like you might in some hotel. Thank you, Catherine, for sharing your splendid cottage. Charlie & Sandy

Charm and a true quality experience!
We had the best time at the cottage. Our host was absolutely fabulous - the best we have ever had. Attention has been given to every detail to make our stay enjoyable. From a high quality kitchen, very comfortable bed, and beautiful interior design to helpful recommendations for special events and attractions during our stay we had everything we needed. There was so much to see and do within walking distance - the beach and restaurants on the pier, great artistic vibe throughout downtown with music and loads of culture, walking paths, and great food everywhere. This was one of our best vacations ever! Thanks to our host and the wonderful community of Lake Worth.

Beyond Charming and Wonderful
Love love love this cozy studio and property. It's charming, well appointed and the owner couldn't be more delightful. Highly recommend this for anyone looking for a quiet and comfortable get away that is close to town and the beaches. I honestly felt more like a part of the family than a VRBO guest. Catherine is so easy and accessible and the cottage shows all the time and attention to detail you can imagine. Can't say enough good things about this property!
