Roonie's Periwinkle Cottage - waterfront- 2 bikes - downtown Stuart

The cottsge was more than we expected. It Met and exceeded our expectation.

The Cottage is a comfortable studio-sized space, with a complete bathroom and fully equipped galley kitchen, each separate from the living space. It’s a comfortable, easy room, with welcoming hosts who provide a well-appointed, quiet Stuart retreat. The property is a private ‘jungle’ of lush tropical plants and flowers, a relaxed seating area, and, out back, a dock retreat right on the St. Lucie River. More than fine for me, as a single visitor. I came for the beaches, but ‘discovered’ old Stuart, just an easy walk down a quiet, tree-shaded street. With beach-town shops, a laid-back coffee house, a variety of restaurants, and superb sweet treats, it was an unexpected addition to my stay. The vintage Lyric Theater is a venue for touring musicians, and I took in a sensational show by a classic rock photographer responsible for iconic album covers. Also went to the local community theater for a well-presented musical at Stuart’s Barn Theater! So, a lovely respite by excellent hosts in an area with much to do within easy reach, a stay I can highly recommend.

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.

Great spot! Owners are so nice; they do all they can to help make your stay wonderful!

We enjoyed the peaceful garden setting by the river, the well-equipped kitchen, and the great location blocks from town. Many thanks to our gracious and knowledgeable hosts for contributing to our wonderful stay in Stuart.

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.

Lovely couple, everything was just perfect. Quiet block, walk to town. Peaceful dock for morning coffee & evening sunsets.

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!

Easy walking distance to great downtown area of shops and waterfront restaurants. Quiet and convenient. Christy and George are the perfect hosts! I would highly recommend this cottage!

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!
