About this property
The Funky Swan Shack by Lake Morton & Downtown
Enjoy every pop of color in our Vintage Florida Cottage located in the Lake Morton Historic District and just a short walk to Lake Morton, Lake Hollingsworth, and Florida Southern College.
This home is just one mile from Downtown Lakeland, Dixieland Historic District, and all of Lakeland’s top restaurants and bars; and is in an absolutely perfect location for exploring all of Lakeland, Tampa, Orlando, Disney World, and Florida beaches.
This 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom cottage was curated with vintage furnishings from local vendors that gives the most eclectic Florida vibe and feels like you stepped right into a Pinterest board.
The kitchen has been remodeled with a stainless steel fridge, a convection microwave oven for baking, and a stovetop. The kitchen also includes a coffee maker, dishware, silverware, cooking utensils, paper towels, trash bags, and cleaning products.
The living room and dining area are great spots to entertain. Sign in to your Hulu, Netflix, or HBO Max on our Roku TV, or play the plethora of games we provide in the Florida room.
Relax and enjoy the outdoors on the two wooden decks in the backyard.
The home also provides access to free WiFi, a stackable washer and dryer, iron, central A/C and heat, linens/towels, laundry detergent, paper towels, toilet paper, and complimentary toiletries like shampoo, conditioner, and body wash.
Our guests are welcome to enjoy the entire cottage and backyard. There are two parking spots available in the driveway and two available from the back alley entrance that you can access behind the house.

About the host
Hosted by Austin St. Jean
Hello, Austin & Mikayla here!
We are Lakeland natives who have fell in love with hosting guests at our properties. Since 2016, we've been traveling and staying at various short-term rentals around the country. After having unforgettable times exploring, we wanted to offer our own properties to guests in June of 2021.
We felt pulled to bring people to our wonderful city to see all that it has to offer. From the beautiful lakes to amazing restaurants and shops, Lakeland has become a staple when visiting Central Florida.
We hope that you have nothing but comfort and a memorable experience when you stay with us. Cheers!
