Vacation Rental Description

Relaxing on the front porch of this charming bungalow, you will find
the Manatee Bay to your right (with a dock) and the Gulf of Mexico to
your left (with a beautiful beach), each only 100 steps away! This
"Old Florida style" home is located at the narrow southern end of Anna
Maria Island. From our dock, you can sip coffee at sunrise, fish, watch 
the dolphins and manatees, and tie up your boat (boat rentals are available 
nearby). Stroll barefoot to the Gulf to catch sunsets... on the "local" 
section of the beach, which is seldom crowded because it's such a well-kept secret.

The cottage is turnkey furnished, including beach chairs and a BBQ
grill.  With a huge screened porch in front and a large deck in the
rear yard, this home is ideal for outdoor living. There's even an
extra shower outside the back door (with hot water!) 

Vacation Rental Amenities

Built in 1949 and lovingly renovated, the cottage has a vintage flair -- a tin roof, 
a clawfoot bathtub with shower, stained-glass decorative windows, and lots of antique 
furnishings. Our latest remodeling project was in January, 2006, upgrading the kitchen 
with new appliances (stove, fridge, washer/dryer, microwave, toaster, coffeemaker) 
and new tile floor, plus new carpet in the bedrooms and living room. The yard is fully 
fenced and lushly landscaped. The area is quiet and less transient than most of the Island 
neighborhoods...many of the neighbors are fulltime residents whom we have known for 22
years. All homes are very well-kept. 

Activities and Attractions

All the typical Island activities are available within a few blocks: 
para-sailing, scuba diving, jet skiing, charter fishing, etc. Boat
rentals range from catamarans to pontoons boats, to offshore powerboats. 

Or just go beach-combing. This is a very low-key, laid-back
environment. No fast food. No high-rises. Instead of coat-and-tie
dining, you'll find shoes-and-shirt restaurants!
