Cottage addition
The cottage itself is very nice, but the location is very awkward to access. It has a driveway coming off a busy intersection. Overall, itbis a quaint little place, but keep in mind it is attached to the owner's house. You have no control over the A/C and we were hot every night. The sheets looked rather unclean and decided to wash them elsewhere, prior to sleeping in them. There are two twin beds that are separated by a night table.

Pleasant and Convenient!
We loved the setting, which felt like our own oasis with great access to many great opportunities in the Orlando area. Kathy was such a gracious host and the cottage had everything we needed for a comfy stay. Beautiful spot!

charming place to stay
Kathy is very inviting and kind, but there is no way to control the heat or AC independently from her residence area. We were there during a chilly spell; the bedroom and bathroom seem poorly insulated and the windows are not very weatherproof. That said, we enjoyed the location, the interior layout, and the nearby areas very much.

There are not enough positive things to say about Cathy and her property. Safe, quiet, beautiful and private. Will absolutely be back to stay with her again. If you’re considering a trip to her area DO NOT HESITATE, book with her immediately, she is a unique, one of a kind person with a wonderful property. I’d call to thank her again personally but somehow lost the contact info.

Gardener’s Cottage
The Gardener’s Cottage was everything we needed during the last week of our month long stay in Maitland. The indoor space is perfect for two, is lovingly decorated and well equipped. The view from the huge kitchen window felt like a lush, botanical, dreamy movie set. The outdoor space which is exactly as pictured is stunning. And last but not least, Kathy is a perfect host.

We truly enjoyed our stay and our host Kathy is a wonderful woman. She does everything to make sure that you are comfortable and has lots of knowledge of things to do in the area.

Even though this is attached to the landlady's house I felt so private. The pool view from the kitchen made me feel so homey. The location is very convenient. I would definitely stay here again.

Very Pleased
The host was very friendly and accomadating. An excellent selection of books for reading. We planned on doing a lot of golfing and in the area the choices were endless. Close to the Atlantic coast but not the Gulf Coast for those who plan a lot of beach time. Overall we were very happy with our stay!

Very Pleased 😀
The cottage is charmingly enveloped in a lush tropical garden setting with multiple patios and a pool. There are secluded areas within the garden to enjoy a cup of coffee, glass of wine, listen to the birds or gaze at the moon and stars. I was pleasantly surprised with a fresh bowl of fruit upon arrival. The supply of records/ CD's,media player, movies and books was an added bonus. Definitely a great value.

Comfortable Retreat
The Gardeners Cottage provided a peaceful place for me to retreat after dealing with stressful family issues during the day. Kathy was a welcoming and attentive host, but also provided privacy and space. The touches of luxury added to the experience: large terry towels, plentiful and nice dishes, well-stocked kitchen and bathroom. The location was convenient for me, with easy access to a main arterial road instead of having to use the freeway. I will definitely use the cottage again and highly recommend it to others.

Wonderful and with all the comforts of home
I stayed here for 3 months and it was exactly what I needed. Kathy was so accommodating and her guest house has everything you need to live comfortably. The pool is amazing and so private. The address may be in Maitland, but it’s so close to I-4 so you can get everywhere pretty easily. I definitely recommend it and would stay here in the future if I decided to take a contract in Orlando again.
