Sarasota, Fl. Wild Orchid Creek

Come enjoy old Florida living at this completely renovated cottage style home on nearly 7 acres. Relax and unwind in this 1000 square foot home with king bed and queen sleeper to accommodate up to four people. Open concept living, dining and full kitchen. Laundry facilities available. Equipped with WiFi and direct tv. While enjoying the private backyard space, it is common to spot abundant wildlife and wildflowers. Wild orchids in many of our oak trees bloom in early summer.

A BIT MORE ABOUT THE PROPERTY:
This home is nestled in an old Florida setting and shares the seven acres with the main home occupied by the homeowners.
A creek runs through the middle of the property and is available to catch and release fishing. Fishing poles are available for use during your stay. Alligators and otters are spotted in the creek regularly. Also be on the lookout for deer, owls, hawks, eagles, and many nocturnal animals.

GUEST ACCESS:
Guests can use any part of the seven acres for fishing, barbecues, sitting by a fire or enjoying the wildlife. There is a very private space behind the house that is quite secluded.
The entire property is tucked back in a wooded area approximately one half mile off the private road.

Peaceful Retreat
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Wild Orchid Creek. It was very private and peaceful. Out away from the hustle and bustle but not to far from activities. The owners were great people. Very friendly, welcoming and quick to respond to any questions. Would definitely recommend staying here.

Zen Country Escape
This is a beautiful vacation rental. The house is beautiful as well as the property. Lovely location in the country but near the city. Nice restaurants nearby. We had reservations for Myyaka Elephant Ranch which I highly recommend! We visited Anna Maria Island beach and Clearwater to meet friends. Chantal is an excellent hosted providing little extras like wine, snacks, coffee and spices for cooking in a fully equipt kitchen. I will definitely return!

Beautiful property and super comfortable
We really enjoyed our stay in this gorgeous little place. So much charm and super clean and quiet. Only thing I’d suggest is make sure to bring your bug spray to fight off the mosquitoes and keep in mind that the neighbors up the road have dogs that wander around the neighborhood so you may wake up to some roaming visitors on four legs :) Thanks Chantal!

Charming and Fresh
Blown away by the charm of this place. Very clean and fresh looking with decor out of a magazine. Well equipped. Easy to find. Tucked away in a quiet wooded area yet at most a 30 minute drive to the places we were going to in Bradenton an Sarasota.
