Come and stay, be inspired, read or write a best seller, or spend a cozy few days, week, or month, in the heart of Bradenton - Florida’s best kept secret. Step back in time in this fully updated classic 1938 bungalow (or is it a cottage – you decide) with that Tommy Bahama/Trader Vic’s feel, reminiscent of a bygone era when the world’s adventurers would travel to Florida for sun, fun, relaxation and restoration ofthe soul. Situated in the quiet and friendly – but never trendy - historic Onwego Park neighborhood, your well-appointed home-away-from-home is a short walk to local shops, pubs, restaurants, and Bradenton Country Club, and equidistant (~5 miles) to Anna Maria Island Beaches to the west, downtown Bradenton restaurants, shops and bars to the east, and IMG Academy to the south.

You enter the knotty pine foyer and look upon the elegantly understated living room with comfortable seating for modest gatherings of family and friends, containing cable television, a 1930’s bridge table, and working fireplace. In the bungalow’s northern section are the two large private bedrooms – one with twin beds next to the hallway’s full bath, and the other a Principle bedroom en-suite with a Queen bed and private bath with washer/dryer. The southern section of the home contains a large dining room overlooking the back garden leading to the spacious adjoining kitchen with all necessary cooking items, with a door to the large deck, pergola, and spacious back garden. The dining room also leads you to the fully screened lanai Tiki-bar. This may become the wind-down entertainment center you will want to return to night or day, either before or after . . . or you may just not want to leave . . . .

All the comforts and convenience await your quest for solitude and casual elegance - stay a while – create real memories . . . . .

2 Bedroom, 2 Baths, full kitchen, living room, dining room, lanai tiki bar, hard wood floors, washer/dryer, large back yard, off street parking, smart television and high speed internet.

Three night minimum stay.

    Michael as a host is truly amazing! Not only did he accommodate our sweet angels, but left us wonderful treats in the very big and fabulous kitchen, including fresh flowers. The whole place is very cozy and comfortable. I love the creaking orginal wood floors and wonderful decor. My fiancé and I had a wonderful weekend. Thank you!! This is a must stay in Bradenton. We visit often as my fiancés family lives in the area. This location is perfect!!

    Great communication and the host allowed us a very late check out when our flight was delayed which was very much appreciated. The cottage worked out great for four of us for our soccer tournament weekend at the IMG fields.

    It was a pretty charming cottage/home with a great location in Bradenton. There were some minor issues but overall we were very pleased and comfortable coming and going to beaches and attractions and biking. A botanical gardens nearby was awesome. A few political signs in neighbors yards wasn’t great but not an issue.

    This house is surprisingly cute inside, although the yard can do with some upkeep. It is really big, plenty for 2 couples or extended family. Our problem was with the front door lock. It badly needs a locksmith to make it easy to enter. The owner said it was an old house and You'll figure it out. I grew up in a house built in 1900 and live in one built in 1939, so that is no excuse for not correcting this problem. The handle is actually pulling away from the door because of people trying to enter the building.

    Great place to stay except for the screaming children at the day care next door

    It was a godsend to have Michael's place available during the hurricane so my in-laws could evacuate away from their home in a flood zone. The property met our needs perfectly and Michael communicated proactively and went above and beyond to help the stay go smoothly. Thank you!

    Michael and Jackie were extremely thoughtful and kind. We arrived to a clean super cool spot, and were surprised to also find welcome presents for the group and my pup. 100% will be back, and can't wait until next time!

    Lovely home tucked away in a nice neighborhood, with plenty of room and privacy, as well as a great back yard.I particularly loved the many interesting artifacts, books and pieces of art. It all reminded me of the charm found in many a Hollywood mansion, very comfortable and lacking nothing! I will definitely rent it again when I am coming to the area. Thanks again Michael! ☺️

    Communication was great, instructions were clear for checking in and getting inside. Very comfortable older southern style home. Also, Great location close to Anna Marie, Sarasota airport, Bradenton motor sports park, Tampa and all sorts of spots.
