Perfect Everglades Location

We spent three nights at Cypress Cottage and had a great time. The property itself is super clean, modern and has all we needed for our short stay with an excellent location and awesome views onto Everglades (great to see wildlife from the windows and deck). Location was good for local activities but bear in mind there is no ‘proper’ supermarket for 30 mins so come stocked! Loved our stay would highly recommend

Winter get away

This is our second stay at the "Cypress Cottage" and we love it. Location is fantastic, the house is amazing, the host is great. We can't say enough good things about the community. This is a Florida hidden gem. Our favorite part is bringing fresh caught fish to any of the local restaurants, having them cook it fresh and having a cold drink. 10 out of 10.

Reviving Everglades City

You can tell how lovingly and stylistically Cypress Cottage was designed and built. From the modern yet rustic charm of the outside to the way the water's reflection cascades across the living room and kitchen ceilings during the morning hours, you can how much thoughtful detail went into this home. Modern amenities such as Nest thermostat, smart TV's and digital door lock made us (a family that works in tech) feel at ease. The home was spotless and shout out to the local housekeeper for not only maintaining the home's cleanliness but saving us from desperation when we locked ourselves out the house (and the passcode to get back in was on our phone, inside of the home). Perfect for fishing and relaxing on the dock. We were able to dock a 22 ft boat there but be warned that you want to wait until the tide comes in after 10am before shoving off. Pay no attention to complaints about water pressure. South Florida is notoriously bad with water pressure. Yes, this home is located on a main road, but it is NOT a busy one. There is literally one road in and one road out of this town of 380 people. No stores for 25 miles so either stop before arriving (before jumping on the 41 in Miami) or drive north to Naples (easy drive but it will still take you 20 minutes to get there). Don't count on the good food reviews for local eateries. Dining out in Everglades City is not worth the $$$$ or gastrointestinal aftermath.

This home is exceptionally clean, well-maintained, and thoughtfully designed. As a retired builder and former architectural drafter, my husband was particularly impressed by the layout. The vaulted ceilings and abundance of natural light make excellent use of the lot’s orientation. The native landscaping is also a beautiful, intentional touch.Location & Logistics:• Boating: We brought a high-end flats boat (6–8” draft) but chose not to use the on-site dock due to low-tide mud concerns. However, the marina is only two blocks away, making it a non-issue.• Noise/Privacy: Being across from a Circle K can result in some night noise. A simple blind on the glass front door and sound machines in the bedrooms would easily solve this and add extra privacy.Final Verdict: The previous reviews are highly accurate and reliable. We had a great stay and would highly recommend this property!

Wonderful house!

We loved the Cypress Cottage. It was super clean and even prettier than the pictures. It was a great home base for exploring the area. We loved walking down the street for dinner at the Camellia Street Grill and we also really enjoyed the nearby National Parks boat tour of the Ten Thousand Islands.
