About this property

Ruth’s Cottage is located in the heart of historic downtown. This is where South Florida charm and tradition blends with the comforts of modern luxury. All of Delray is within your reach, but, you’ll find it’s difficult to leave the comforts of this home for long. This is the finest neighborhood in classic Delray Beach. Rich in both history and amenities, Ruth’s is the ultimate Delray experience.

Ruth’s is family-friendly. You’ll have access to games, pool toys, play pens and highchairs if needed. The washer and dryer in the laundry room are brand new – but the basketball hoop in the pool has seen many, many championship battles!

The uncommon pleasure of this secluded paradise is located in the middle of the simple chic that is Delray Beach. Buttoned down luxury is extended throughout an expansive floor plan. Our remodeled kitchen, family room and patio provide an opportunity to gather and enjoy this paradise together. And, the three bedrooms, living room and dining area provide seclusion and privacy as needed for quiet times during your stay. The jewel of the property is a heated, 20’x 30’ walk-in pool surrounded by a tropical garden.

This house is located North of Atlantic Avenue and East of Lake Ida with easy access to highways, attractions and downtown Delray Beach, a popular, award-winning beach town.

The main street in Delray Beach is Atlantic Avenue, and it spans all the way down to a pristine beach. The ‘Ave’ is popular for visitors and locals thanks to the many art galleries, upscale shops, fine restaurants and nightly entertainment. Seasonal events for the downtown area feature Delray Beach Fashion Week, Savor the Avenue, the Delray Affair and the annual 100-foot Christmas tree.

Delray Beach is located between Palm Beach and Fort Lauderdale Florida, and it’s the ideal destination for a vacation with your friends and family any time of year. It’s a pristine haven and one of the most popular beaches in Palm Beach County, Florida. Delray Beach is an intimate town filled with art galleries, upscale shops, fine restaurants and nightly entertainment.

It was named the Most Fun Small Town in the U.S.A. by Rand McNally, USA Today and the Travel Channel. Delray Beach offers the kind of culture and sophistication you wouldn’t expect to find in a funky, walkable beach town.

An Oasis

The Cottage was actually better in person than on line. The house is completely stocked and set up for your every need. From new bed linens/ towels/ beach gear/ bikes. I can’t think of one thing that I would suggest to make this listing better. The backyard/ pool setting is a true oasis that we are already missing. We spent two delightful weeks here! Highly recommend this spot!

Backyard Oasis!

The location was literally 5 min to anything we did but we stayed in the backyard and in the pool most of our 2 weeks in Delray Beach. It was like a tropical oasis. The amenities were top notch, the place was spotless and adorably decorated. We wish we could have stayed longer!

Picture perfect

The only downside was the hot, humid weather. The house is stunning along with the saltwater pool. We spent the majority of our time in the backyard grilling and swimming. I would highly recommend this house and the host.

A Perfect Vacation

Steve could not have been more accommodating with our travel needs, especially with little ones. The house was immaculately clean, the beds were comfortable, the outside space was the best part and we will definitely be back again. The only complaint I have is that I wish we could stay longer.

About the host

Hosted by Steve

Ruth, our namesake, had a tradition of hosting new and old friends since 1955. That’s when she opened her first cottage in Smallwood NY. “Ruth’s Bungalows” was born and eventually grew into a 15 cottage family-run business. For Ruth, family always came first. She enjoyed an extensive family with three children and five grandchildren.

We’ve done our best to portray in this house Ruth’s passion for cooking, comfort and caring for others.
