Quarterdeck Cottage...picture perfect

We spent five days at Darlene's Quarterdeck Cottage and we couldn't have been happier with the accommodations! Very clean, was equipped with everything we could have asked for AND the decor, mid century modern, was outstanding. We will be back again in February!

This rental had all the comforts of home with lots of charm. It is an easy drive to St James, Matlacha, Fort Meyer, or even Sanibel Island. Or just hang out at Bookelia and enjoy a meal down at Captain Con’s on the marina. We had a wonderful stay and definitely look forward to booking again.

Bright and cozy

We had a relaxing week at Darlene’s cottage. It was a great place, clean and well equipped and an awesome location, near the canal. The bed is comfortable, living area is spacious, kitchen is remodeled. Nice to come home to this cute place after our adventurous days. We kayaked almost every day and enjoyed the dolphins, pelicans, fishing, and beauty of this special island.

A terrific place and location for fishing!

What a find! Highly recommend. Great location, very well-appointed, clean and comfortable place with everything you need. I planned this trip very last minute and Darlene was available immediately to answer several questions I had about bringing a boat. The place easily accommodated truck and trailer and another car. We also has access to her dock across the street at NO extra charge which was about as convenient as it gets to hop on and off easily. There is also a VERY nice boat ramp around the corner called Lavender’s Landing. You literally can not be in a better spot to reach great fishing. Boca Grande Pass, Captiva, Pine Island Sound, etc. Thank you Darlene, it was a wonderful stay. We will definitely return!!

Old Florida, Exceptional Design, and Extraordinary Service

Honestly, I'm not certain where to begin! Pine Island offers a slice of old Florida at its finest. Location, location, location... especially if you want close proximity to the out islands, world-class fishing and cruising, dockside dining, and history at every turn. I rented this cottage (Quarterdeck Cottage) for friends and Waterside Cottage across the street for us. I'm a local captain and would easily come here over and over again. The host, Darlene, is a diamond in the rough re: service. The interior is even better than the pictures! A+ in my book. Quick, book this place. :) Whether you're a boater or not, don't miss Jug Creek Marina. The marina and fish house is the perfect place for fuel, bait, and even a fried mullet plate and cold beverage. Enjoy your stay.

What an amazing place. The cottage was so relaxing and we enjoyed that it was in a slow paced area that allowed us to just disconnect and have some much needed down time. Loved our stay and look forward to coming back the next time we need to recharge.
