Looking to Just Get Away??? Cute Cottage with Pool. Close to the Beach!
Welcome to Florida! !Everyone who has stayed at my cottage have told me “It is So close to everything!' The beach, the Halifax River, restaurants, shopping, movie theater, etc. The next thing people have said is how private, peaceful and cute. My offering has a covered front porch with two rockers and a little table for your morning coffee or tea. As you enter the front door, you will see the living room and then a small step down leads to both the kitchen and bedroom. and bathroom. Please note: It is a divided home (separate private entrance for owner and guest)
@Owner is readily available for any questions or needs you may have. The pool area has a covered patio for outside meals, and an in ground pool (with a love seat built into the deeper end). Access to private, screened pool. The bedroom has a queen bed. Bathroom with tub/shower combo.
PLEASE read house rules re pets and smoking.
*****Also I make the washer and dryer available for my guests in case they run out of clean clothes. One family arrived and began washing 6 loads. This is not intended as a substitute for a laundry mat but only to help you if running out of clean clothes at the end of your stay. Thank you for your understanding
Activities and Attractions: Daytona International Speedway (Coke Zero , Daytona 500, Turkey Rod Run); Ponce Inlet Lighthouse, Orlando (all theme parks, Fun Spot Amusement Park (2 in Orlando); St. Augustine (outlets, old city)
Kennedy Space Center, Tampa (Hard Rock Casino, Tampa Zoo, Busch Gardens, Sunken Gardens ), Jacksonville (Zoo, Jacksonville Landing), Victory Casino Cruise (can get great Groupons to save $$) local: jet ski rental, miniature golf, go karts, and of course the beach ) God's gift to us
PS. Bikers/Turkey Rod Run. Safe place for bikes/vehicles SAFE Location
FYI. If you book my cottage at Christmas you will find it decorated to spend your Holidays in Florida—- 3 miles to the beach. Christmas tree, ornaments and more! You may even find a gift under the tree on Christmas morning!
We have a 21 ft SeaRay and if you want to go out on the St Johns River or Halifax River (maybe even take a short ride into the ocean out of Ponce Inlet), let us know. $275/4 hrs and if you are having a great time any additional time is on Danny It makes for a great vacation memory !

About the host
Hosted by Miriam Carney

Greetings! I have lived in the Port Orange area since moving from the Garden State (New Jersey) in 1989. I have never looked back (well maybe a few times :)) Seriously, I love "my" beach, the tropical flowers, blue skies and temporate climate (most of the year). I have worked as an RN in Home Health. I have four grown daughters and seven grandchildren. I used to rent thru Home Away seven years ago when I rented Just Gotta Get Away when it was a full home. My family came to live in the area so I suspended my vacation rental. We made a "mother in law apt, ie cottage"and begin renting the cottage. As a nurse, I have cared about and for people and I try to do the same with my rental. In the past, I always had great reviews of vacationer's stays (can provide if requested--kept the guest book and probably can still find in the archives on Home Away) The cottage is perfect for a couple or a few friends who are just trying to

Why they chose this property
Until about 2011 I had rented my home which consisted of 3 bedrooms 2 baths living room, family room, dining room, 3 bedrooms, 2 baths. My family needed housing with their four children Somewhat temporary turned into 7 years, with a home conversion to include my cottage offering —initially designed as a mother in law apt but more like a cute cottage You can choose beachside but if you choose Just Gotta Get Away you will be 3 miles to the beach, cross over the Dunlawton Bridge to get to the beach and see such a beautiful view--I have never lost the WOW feeling as I get to the top of the bridge. My cottage is private, walking distance to the grocery stores, Dunkin, restaurants as well as by bike (which I supply 2). A short drive will take you to the Port Orange Pavillion for the movies, shops, other restaurants (fav Culvers, San Diego Grill) You can relax by my pool without dozens of people joining you. You can hear the sounds of the pond and enjoy the beautiful flowers. When you leave to go home, I think you will be glad you made the decision to just get away at my cottage offering.
