About this house rental

Middle Terrace Cottage: 3BR hideaway with a hot tub, fire pit & private backyard, minutes from Fort Lauderdale Beach & Las Olas.

Set on a quiet residential street in the heart of Fort Lauderdale, Middle Terrace Cottage is a three-bedroom, two-bathroom ranch-style home tailor-made for families and small groups — and just a 10-minute drive from the sands of Fort Lauderdale Beach.

The backyard is where this home earns its reputation. Unwind in the hot tub, gather around the fire pit, or fire up the BBQ grill while dinner comes together at the al fresco dining table on the large deck. A wide lawn leaves plenty of room to sprawl out, tall fences keep things private and serene, and a resident mango tree adds a little hidden-gem charm that past guests love to mention.

Inside, two inviting living areas give everyone room to spread out. The den, bathed in natural light from sliding glass doors, opens directly to the backyard and features a large flat-screen TV — settle in for movie night, or keep the game on while you soak just steps away. The second lounge boasts a roomy sectional, perfect for group game nights. A dining table with four seats and a bench sits alongside a fully equipped kitchen with barstool seating, stocked with everything you need to make at-home meals a breeze — guests consistently call it one of the best-equipped kitchens they've stayed with.

The smartly split floor plan places the primary suite on its own side of the home, complete with a California king bed, private TV, and ensuite bathroom. Across the house, the second bedroom pairs a king bed with a desk for remote work or study sessions, while the third bedroom offers a cozy queen bed and its own TV.

When you're ready to explore, downtown Fort Lauderdale and Las Olas Boulevard are a quick drive away, where boutiques, galleries, and a celebrated restaurant scene line the way to the water. Hop aboard the Water Taxi to cruise the canals and inland waterways that earned the city its nickname, "Venice of America," or spend the day along the famous beachfront promenade — boating, windsurfing, snorkeling, and deep-sea fishing keep the calendar full. Beach days in Hollywood and Pompano Beach are within easy reach, and a convenient market right across the street covers any last-minute needs.

Whether you're planning sun-soaked outings or simply seeking a peaceful retreat to create lasting memories, Middle Terrace Cottage beckons you to a world of comfort and togetherness.

AvantStay provides a personalized hospitality experience to elevate your stay. With our Concierge Service, guests have access to our tech-enabled services like fridge stocking, private chefs, massages, transportation, special occasion celebrations, baby gear rentals, ski gear, beach gear, and more. For anything you need, we're at your fingertips!

Take a ride on Fort Lauderdale’s Water Taxi and explore canals and inland waterways to see for yourself why the city earned its nickname, “Venice of America”. If you need another reason to spend your time outdoors, the city’s famous waterfront promenade along the sandy Atlantic coastline is one of the area’s most alluring draws. From boating and windsurfing to snorkeling and deep-sea fishing, there’s never a dull moment here. This is just as true in town where party bikes and foodie tours along Los Olas Blvd invite visitors to get a taste (and sip) of the best of the area’s culinary and bar scene. Cheers!

The house was spacious and clean. With its 6 foot fencesthe yard had all the privacy you could ask for. The house was centrally located with plenty of restaurants and very close to A1A and its many beaches.

This house was so perfect for our wedding weekend. So cute and comfortable. The yard was perfect for our dog, too.

Property met our needs and expectations. We had two concerns during our stay. The large tv in TV room/Den was very glitchy with dropping wifi signal frequently (I contacted mgmt and switched to alternative secure wifi and continued to experience dropping signal). The large TV gave significant off heat and the AC had a hard time keeping the space cool. Otherwise, we did not have any other problems. We appreciated the well stocked kitchen and laundry area.
