10 / 10Outstanding·Aug 2026
This enchanting gem of a cottage on lake front property provided us with a peaceful and beyond words of nature stay! Jana was the Host of the century, such a delight and made our stay enriching. She’s very attentive and caring. The landscaping, water views, and wildlife whisks you away to surreal beauty and unimaginable peace and tranquility. The cottage offered everything the pictures showed as well as ample supplies for cooking, linens, pillows, and towels. The bed was comfortable as well as the overhead ceiling fans and good air conditioning on a hot summer Florida day. We enjoyed the hot tub in the evening which was an added bonus. Although there were instructions for turning on the jets and the chemicals it was great that Jana showed us how to get it working. Overall I would highly recommend Jana’s Cottage and we certainly will return over and over again!

The setting was perfect, the nature was beautiful, and the birds singing during the day was very calming. Feeding the squirrels and the evening views of the water and the swimming alligators were simply perfect. The house is fully equipped with absolutely everything you could need and even things you probably don’t :) Parking was close to the house on private property, and the location near Publix or Legoland was excellent. The cleanliness of the surroundings was also top-notch.My only small complaint is the sofa, which serves as a pull-out bed for two more people it is simply on the cheaper side, and you can feel that. However, it is perfectly fine for children. I believe that if the house were more fully occupied, the owner would be able to replace it and make everything completely perfect. If we ever pass through again, we would definitely book it again with our family.
