Tiny Cottage w/ private courtyard steps from Historic Downtown Sanford

This tiny, cozy cottage has all you will need for a weekend getaway to beautiful Historic Downtown Sanford, but it will also be a comfortable place for a longer stay. Enjoy a double bed with a high end mattress as well as a desk and comfortable office chair ideal for remote work. The living room has a double bed sized IKEA sofa bed for extra sleeping accommodations, but keep in mind, the cottage is small so 4 adults in the space might feel a bit tight. Enjoy high speed Internet as well as a 42 inch smart TV (incl. Netflix). The cottage is fully fenced w/ a private outdoor courtyard (table, chairs + umbrella).
From the cottage you are only 2 blocks away from everything historic downtown has to offer. The walk to popular downtown with all its eateries, breweries, shops and bars is idyllic with beautiful historic homes and majestic oak trees. The lakefront and Riverwalk are also in walking or biking distance. You will love the unique urban lifestyle this cottage provides!

Would stay again

This cute cottage was the perfect place to stay for the weekend when attending a wedding at a nearby venue. It was clean, comfortable, and offered the perfect amount of space for 2 adults. Check in was easy and the hosts were kind and communicative. If I’m ever back in the area, I would definitely stay here again!

Great hosts!

These hosts are superior when comparing to others we have stayed with. We stay many times with VRBO and have never had a better experience with people than this. Thank you for your kindness and graciousness!

NO FLUSH - Don't stay here.

If we were staying longer we would have complained while we were there. We only had 2 nights and didn't want to waste our time with this issue and totally ruin our stay. They have a cute little sign in the bathroom about what not to flush. Jokes on us, because you literally can't flush the toilet water, let alone the things on their sign. They clearly knew they had plumbing issues with the sign in the bathroom. We had to plunge the toilet every time it was used. We resorted to using bathrooms in local businesses while we were there. Any VRBO should have properly working toilet in it.
