Would you like to get to know the local flavor of downtown Stuart Would you like to explore by biking the area Minutes from the beaches, shopping and restaurants We are looking for people who don't want the typical hotel experience.
We live in a great location and love it here! The main house, which we live in, overlooks the St Lucie River, The cottage sits in front of the main house which gives you complete privacy and lets you come and go as you please. We have lived here since 1984 and done extensive renovation to a 1930's home and cottage. The property has been like an art piece for us. When we bought the property, the yard was minimally landscaped and the house needed major work. Over the years, we have converted our property into a wonderful, nature lover's haven. Our yard looks like something you'd find in Key West. We are organic gardeners and grow pineapples, papaya, key times, veggies and lettuces in our garden boxes along with many herbs. We share whatever is in season. If you are looking for a great experience, you'll find it here! We live on the St Lucie River and allow our guests to enjoy our dock for sunsets or a morning coffee. A beach in our yard provides a quiet get away for reading.

We try to give you complete privacy, but are always available for any questions that you may have. The cottage AC is a split unit which is very quiet as the compressor sits outside on the ground like central AC. The floors are all tile for easy maintenance. We have included games and books. Additionally, we have a book on the dining table with all of our favorite things to do and places to go.

    We loved our stay at Roonie's! The cottage had everything we needed and much more! We enjoyed watching the sunsets from the dock and the resident osprey provided some wonderful photo ops. Downtown Stuart was just a walk away and the boardwalk and Sunday market were fun. George and Cristi were fabulous and friendly hosts and were happy to share their local knowledge about the area.

    The Fuller's were amazing hosts. Location was close to downtown, but also quiet and peaceful. Coffee on the river each morning was great.

    We stayed 2 weeks for a combination work/vacation. It was a little small if we wanted separate spaces - but we managed just fine while working using the indoor space and little patio outside. It was an ideal location, very walkable. The host provided everything we needed, including good tips on where to visit and eat.

    A super clean and cozy cottage is what we found when Christi showed us our abode for the week. I’ve never stayed in such a well equipped unit. Amazing!!! It’s not large, nor new, but totally comfortable and so well located. Catching fish off their dock was also a highlight. Christi and George couldn’t have been more helpful. Thanks to you both!

    We could not have been happier with the accommodations, location, and the hosts. Everything is as represented; a cozy, well-equipped temporary home walking distance to downtown Stuart. This is the place to stay!

    This cottage is absolutely perfect for a couple! The kitchen is fully equipped with anything you could possibly want for an extended stay. The entire place was clean, the grounds beautiful, we enjoyed using the dock for our boat. The owners made us feel welcome, they are very accommodating to any request. Would highly recommend!!!
