3 Bedroom House in Matlacha
Welcome to your picture-perfect Matlacha escape!
Tucked away along a Gulf-access canal in the heart of this colorful little fishing village, this adorable freshly remodeled cottage captures everything visitors love about Old Florida living. From the tropical landscaping and private dock to the bright coastal interior and laid-back island vibe, this is the kind of place where mornings begin with coffee by the water and evenings end with breathtaking skies. Spend your days on the water, bike through town, explore local art galleries and restaurants, or simply unwind by the canal after a day in the sun.
Whether you’re planning fishing adventures, boating days, island hopping, or simply a relaxing getaway in one of Southwest Florida’s most charming waterfront communities, this cottage is the perfect home base for making unforgettable memories.
Waterfront & Boating -
Anglers and boaters will love the private dock, quick access to Pine Island Sound, and easy boating routes to world-class fishing waters. Guests may tie up a boat at the dock, and there is ample space for boat-trailer parking. For monthly stays, access to the boat lift may be requested with owner approval.
The public boat ramp is within walking distance, making it easy to get out on the water. A fish-cleaning station is available along the dock, and stairs down to the water make launching a kayak from the seawall more convenient.
Outdoor Living -
Surrounded by tropical landscaping, the property feels like a peaceful island hideaway. Enjoy coffee by the canal, cast a line from the dock, fire up the gas grill for dinner, or take the owner-provided bicycles out for a leisurely ride through Matlacha.
A gas grill is provided; propane refills, if needed, are the guest’s responsibility.
