One of Dr Beach's top beaches is 25 miles away, and you can reach Disney or the Space Coast within a short drive. The airport is about 20 minutes down the veterans.... Our Lutz Cottage has four bedrooms, two bathrooms and sleeps eight in about two thousand square feet. It has a pool with a screened lanai with grill and covered sitting area -- so the mosquitoes will not carry you away as you enjoy the great Florida climate. If you are the out-doors-y type, this is where you would sip your wine. If you are Canadian, this is where you would swim in the dead of winter while Floridians would not dip a toe in the water for six months! Within walking distance is our Tampa Cottage, a four bedroom, two bath home that sleeps seven which large groups can rent too: VRBO Listing #732919 And next door, our Tampa Bungalow, a four bedroom, two bath home that sleeps six: VRBO Listing #841872 So if you have twelve golfing friends who each want their own bedroom, we have three houses that fit the bill! The cottage has groceries and shopping close by in several directions. Dale Mabry highway with more shops than an Indian bazaar is only two miles East as is the Veterans Expressway. Three miles South West is I-275, a quick jump to Downtown, Busch Gardens, USF, St Pete and Clearwater. Our Lutz Cottage has two king size beds and four twin beds in four bedrooms and two bathrooms. You will love the master bathroom with its whirlpool tub, glass shower and his and her sinks. Your guests can slum it in the spare bathroom while you enjoy the bubbles in the the jet tub. Now, don't turn on the switch to the whirlpool until the water in the tub is three inches over the back jet, or there will be a cleanup on isle nine as the water will shoot clear out of the tub! You must agree to be smarter than the tub! Sitting out on the lanai by the pool, you can look out at the large back yard and the trees, and if you want to throw a ball or walk the dog, this would be the place to do it. When escaping the Florida heat, you can relax inside in the AC, and surf the web on our cottage WiFi, or watch Netflix movies on our 48 inch smart TV. Out front, there is plenty of parking for your relatives on the driveway. The cottage is fully equipped, so just bring your clothes and food. We supply paper towels, coffee filters and more. There is a tea kettle and a laundry room with a washer/dryer and ironing board if you stay for a while. If you are an exercise fanatic, there are very pleasant and quiet streets that are great for walking and if you are a glutton for punishment, jogging. There is a great five mile route that we routinely cycle here too. We have a custom manual detailing area attractions, beaches, restaurants and information about the house for you when you arrive. Come and stay at our Lutz Cottage! ## Property amenities ### Pool/Spa - Outdoor pool - Private pool ### Internet - Available in the house: Free WiFi ### Parking and transportation - Car required - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Electric kettle - Ice maker - Microwave - Oven - Paper towels - Refrigerator - Stovetop - Toaster ### Bedrooms - 4 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 2 bathrooms - Bathtub - Bathtub or shower - Hair dryer - Shower - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Living room ### Entertainment - Smart TV with cable/satellite channels - Video library ### Outdoor areas - Barbecue grill - Garden - Patio ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - Pet friendly - Welcoming dogs only - 2 pets total ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoking not allowed - Note from host: You may smoke on the lanai. ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board ### Location highlights - Near a health/beauty spa - Near a hospital - Near a zoo - Near an outlet shopping mall - Near the marina ### Things to do - Optional golf privileges - Water park - Birdwatching nearby - Casino nearby - Cycling nearby - Fishing nearby - Golfing nearby - Hiking/biking trails nearby - Horseback riding nearby - Hunting nearby - Jet skiing nearby - Motor boating nearby - Parasailing nearby - Sailing nearby - Scuba diving nearby - Snorkeling nearby - Swimming nearby - Theme park nearby - Water skiing nearby - Wildlife walks nearby - Windsurfing nearby ### Safety features - No carbon monoxide detector or gas appliances (host has indicated there are no carbon monoxide detectors or gas appliances on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - Fire extinguisher - Deadbolt lock ### General - Garden - Unit size: 2,000 square feet ## Similar properties ![Terrace/patio](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/30000000/29640000/29633500/29633408/f31592d2.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Five Star Rating Lake/WaterFront Oasis Near Tampa/Orlando & Gulf Beaches Odessa - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Air conditioning 10 Exceptional 38 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-12-24&endDate=2025-12-25&selected=29633408&PinnedHotelID=29633408&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Pool](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/104000000/103650000/103640300/103640226/10c2ce0d.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Chic Outdoor Oasis with Poolside Perfection & Luxe Kitchen 3 Bed and 3 Bath Greater Northdale - Pool - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer 10 Exceptional 3 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-12-24&endDate=2025-12-25&selected=103640226&PinnedHotelID=103640226&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Fridge, microwave, oven, stovetop](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/28000000/27300000/27292200/27292161/821579d6.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Fun for the Whole Family!
