About this cottage rental
A cozy cottage in the woods, river views from your porch, and the beach just a short trip away—come enjoy a peaceful corner of Bonita Springs.
Our comfortable 2-bedroom, 1-bath cottage gives you the entire house to yourself. Tucked among the trees near the Imperial River, it’s a lovely place to slow down while staying close to beaches, restaurants, and entertainment. Enjoy your morning coffee on the porch or relax in the living room, with glimpses of the river from both.
As experienced Superhosts on another booking platform, with several thousand reviews, we love helping guests feel welcome and make the most of their Florida getaway.
**A Little River Adventure**
Follow the shell-covered walkway a short distance to the Imperial River. Bring your kayak and use the convenient launch to explore the waterways, or bring your WaveRunners—the floating docks have space for two. Whether you spend the afternoon paddling or simply enjoying the riverside setting, the water is part of the experience here.
**Beach Days and Breakfast by the Sand**
The beach and Doc’s Beach House are approximately 1.2–1.3 miles away. Head over for breakfast at a beachside table, spend the day swimming and collecting shells, or return for dinner and a beautiful Gulf sunset. For more adventure, Bonita Jet Ski & Parasail offers WaveRunner rentals and parasailing behind Doc’s.
Nearby Barefoot Beach is another wonderful place to spend the day. Follow the road through the Barefoot Beach community to discover Barefoot Beach Preserve, a tucked-away coastal escape with protected dunes, native wildlife, and natural shoreline. Rent a lounger and umbrella, bring a book, and settle into vacation mode.
**Explore the Coast**
Lovers Key is about 5 miles away, offering another beautiful setting for a beach day and outdoor exploring. Continue north along Hickory Boulevard and Estero Boulevard toward Fort Myers Beach for a scenic drive past waterways, bridges, and island landscapes. Stop along the way, discover a waterfront restaurant, and find your favorite sunset spot.
Naples is also within reach for a day of dining, shopping, and exploring.
**Good Food, Live Music, and Family Fun**
Downtown Bonita Springs is about 3 miles away. Enjoy dinner and live music at Sugarshack Downtown, or visit Rooftop at Riverside for food trucks, cocktails, and views over Riverside Park. Explore the cafes and restaurants along Old 41, and check the local calendar for concerts, festivals, and seasonal events.
For some friendly competition, Sports Challenge America offers bowling, mini golf, sports simulators, pickleball, and more. Next door, adults can enjoy cards and sports viewing at the Bonita Springs Poker Room.
**Easy, Comfortable Vacation Living**
Nearby restaurants, shopping, Publix, and 7-Eleven make it easy to pick up groceries, grab a meal, or stock up before a day on the water.
Spend your days exploring everything Southwest Florida has to offer, then come back to your own peaceful cottage among the trees. Beach mornings, river afternoons, and relaxed evenings on the porch—it’s all waiting for you.

Property was clean and only issue we had was the ac in the living room made a very loud strange noise to which we had to turn it off to be able to sleep. Overall host and property were up to par. Property manager responded quickly and advised they would get it checked out asap.
