My wife and I are avid cyclists so location to good riding and interesting destinations is paramount. This little cottage was perfect for cycling to Palm Beach and along the lake. Julie was most gracious checking us in and recommended an astounding Thai restaurant within walking (cycling) distance.
Private and convenient location, worked well for us. Julie was very pleasant and clearly expressed availability if we had needed it. While cottage within her property, she was not intrusive in the shared, fenced yard space. It is a small space good for 2 people( 3 would be manageable but tight in “ living room/ kitchen” area). It was clean and comfortable for what we needed for weekend stay. Some woodwork looked due for paint refresh, but it that could be expected of historic home. Walking the neighborhood was lovely, with a lot of interesting homes to see. People we passed by when walking our dogs were very friendly. Area felt safe, including at night. We did not use pool, so cannot comment on it.

Shabby not chic
1. Very musty smelling. I bought air fresheners to cover the smell.2. Although the washer/dryer unit was new, the washer did not work or worked sporadically on the bulky setting only.3. I was visited by a rat in the trash under the kitchen sink. The owner promptly came to my rescue with “supplies”. The rodent was caught and disposed of, but that was a first for me and left me very unsettled for the remainder of my stay. I would have moved, but nothing else was available in the area. I was stuck!4. Owner was pleasant5. Pool and backyard quiet and comfortable.The place has potential, but needs serious TLC!

Tired and needs painting and deep cleaning
The whole reason we booked this site was because it said heated pool- the pool was not heated. The photos and pics are old and needs newer photos. It has been years since it has seen a coat of paint and a deep cleaning.
Great little place near downtown WPB.
Just me stayed here as I was in town for a baseball tournament. Nice little space and property owner was excellent. Great hospitality and I would certainly recommend this to others!

Julie’s backyard poolside cottage was perfect for us because she and Toby were wonderfully welcoming. The space is tiny but efficient, with everything we needed, and located in a lovely residential neighborhood.
The home was clean and well maintained. There was a musty odor that was a bit off putting to me but my husband didn’t even smell it at all so maybe it was me! It wasn’t from anything I saw that was unclean. The living area was relatively spacious with 2 chairs and a sofa. The bedroom had a nice closet and the bed was comfy. The outside area was great, nice pool area with several seating areas available. We ran out of conditioner and the host left us some by the door immediately. The sink in the bathroom was not draining well and she indicated that she would take care of it. The location in Old Northwood is fantastic. Wonderful area to walk around with beautiful homes as well as a couple of streets with restaurants and cafes. The host was very accommodating; overall a lovely place to stay in a great neighborhood!
We loved our guest house, felt like we were staying with family. Our favorite was the very lovely yard and perfectly sized pool for us and our visiting family members. Pool floats, towels and laundry facilities were easily accessible. The water temperature was wonderful and the landscape was beautiful.
The hosts were kind and friendly but allowed us our privacy. We look forward to a future stay.
Perfect cute little cottage for our family of 3 for a weekend getaway. The pool was very inviting and so warm. The parking was perfect for our truck, trailer, and 26ft boat to store at night . Perfect location.. just blocks away from curry park boat ramp and a quick boat ride to Peanut Island. Julie was so sweet and very accommodating. We will definitely come back.

Pictures are deceiving
This property is in a nice are of W Palm Beach. Overall property needs a makeover. Nothing close to what it was in the pictures. Smell of mold, dirty ceiling and A/C vents from not changing the filter in a long time. Found a roach a spider, sofa bed mattress super old, stained, furniture had a moldy smell. Was told we could use the pool, had leaves and was given the pool strainer and left for ME to clean. Only stayed one night because we had a convention in the area. Otherwise would have left the same day. Bathroom had hand soap that was water down, headboard on the bed coming off the wall. Overall not pleased with this property. Not to mention were not able to relax or sleep like we wanted to. NOT pleased at all. FULL refund, would be a nice way to make it up to me and my family. Older reviews I just saw on this property already had the same comments and issues. NOT pleased at at. Will consider using a different service other than this app also
This property would be perfect for 1-2 people. Even though it was a bit cramped for the 3 of us, it was a great overall experience. The neighborhood and the property were wonderful, and Julie our hostess was as good as it gets. The communication from her was almost instantaneous, and she was very pleasant and accommodating.
My boyfriend and I absolutely loved our stay here. We enjoyed the private pool very much. The apartment was perfectly spacious, very clean and had all the amenities that we needed for our weeks stay. Clean, well thought out, private and peaceful oasis.
Only thing is that pool area is not private even though Julie and owners go out of their way to make sure your privacy is top priority, it's just the fact that the owners house is next to pool with all the windows, for us at least, was not very comfortable.
Julie’s cottage is unique, lovely, and perfect for 2. Added attraction is the spa pool and yard. We had a restful stay.
Central located to shopping and restaurants. You could not ask for a nicer place to stay

Technically, we didn't stay
We checked-in and checked-out practically 3 hours later. It smelled like mold and we found the place dirty, even after cleaning. We were really surprised as previous reviews said the place was very clean (this is our #1 priority). Julie is very nice, accessible and very welcoming and agreed to refund, so this is a positive thing. From what we were able to see, it is a good location we were just very sad we couldn't enjoy like we had planned.
