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

Would you like to get to know the local flavor of downtown Stuart? Would you like to explore by biking the area? Minutes from the beaches, shopping and restaurants? We are looking for people who don't want the typical hotel experience.
We live in a great location and love it here! The main house, which we live in, overlooks the St Lucie River, The cottage sits in front of the main house which gives you complete privacy and lets you come and go as you please. We have lived here since 1984 and done extensive renovation to a 1930's home and cottage. The property has been like an art piece for us. When we bought the property, the yard was minimally landscaped and the house needed major work. Over the years, we have converted our property into a wonderful, nature lover's haven. Our yard looks like something you'd find in Key West. We are organic gardeners and grow pineapples, papaya, key times, veggies and lettuces in our garden boxes along with many herbs. We share whatever is in season. If you are looking for a great experience, you'll find it here! We live on the St Lucie River and allow our guests to enjoy our dock for sunsets or a morning coffee. A beach in our yard provides a quiet get away for reading.

The Cottage details:
Shared washer and dryer with owners. The cottage is equipped with a separate kitchenette to include a frig/freezer, induction hot plate, large toaster oven, juicer, blender, pans, dishes, glassware, and utensils. OOMPLETELY EQUIPPED! The cottage has a dining table w/4 chairs, a very comfy queen bed, a leather sofa, coffee table and end table, wall unit with cable flat screen tv, wireless internet, chest of drawers, closet, vac, linens, beach towels, beach chairs and umbrella, 2 bikes, and a separate bathroom with a shower. In the front of the cottage is a small garden with a gas weber BBQ grill. Enjoy mornings in the garden drinking a cup of Joe or for an evening dinner. We try to give you complete privacy, but are always available for any questions that you may have. The cottage AC is a split unit which is very quiet as the compressor sits outside on the ground like central AC. The floors are all tile for easy maintenance. We have included games and books. Additionally, we have a book on the dining table with all of our favorite things to do and places to go. We include an Enjoyment Book for all of our visitors', use that discounts (2 for 1) local restaurants and activities. We hope you'll try us for a exceptional vacation experience.
Additionally, two bikes are available for use should you like to cruise the area in slow motion :-)
We will collect a 5% county bed tax upon arrival. VRBO collects the FL sales tax, but the county tax is our responsibility. The total of the tax is calculated on the weekly rate + the cleaning fee.

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.

Perfect little cottage

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.

Great location/ Helpful hosts

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!

Perfect!

My husband and I stayed there for a month, and it could not have been better. Christi and George, the owners, are the perfect hosts: warm, gracious, funny and interesting, but not intrusive. The cottage is charming, and has everything -- in fact, three of everything -- you might need. You could cook a holiday dinner for ten from the kitchen. The bed and bedding is comfortable, the Wifi strong, the entire place immaculate. Most lovely is the tiny "beach" out back, and the lounge chairs on the deck overlooking the St. Lucie. Stuart itself is very much old Florida -- no corporate chains to be seen. We walked into town everyday, and along the Riverwalk. Many fine local places to dine. We highly recommend this cottage and its wonderful hosts!

I have traveled the world & lived abroad. This cottage is one of the 10 best places I have stayed!

There are not enough superlatives to describe this cottage and its owners-an extra blanket & heater as I arrived the day following the East Coast blizzard; a notebook with everything local in it including 2-for-1 coupons; a Cuisinart ice cream maker used to make utterly divine butter pecan ice cream; freshly picked papaya which topped off lunch one day; the dock which provided a panoramic view for morning coffee – and this is just the beginning! Don't miss going downtown on the local site seeing "tram with driver" or walking to the Blue Door coffee establishment for a lavender latte and freshly baked scone (MWF). The Boathouse restaurant was the scene of two of the best dinners ever and we walked to it through downtown and returned on the Riverwalk. George and Christie – I have not found the perfect superlatives for them! They are one-of-a-kind and because some experiences did not happen during my 10 day stay, I plan to return next year.

Perfect in so many ways!

Stayed here for six nights and loved it from the minute I entered. Great music was playing on the iPod and the cottage is adorably decorated. The owners are so helpful and welcoming; they felt like family! The home is small but beautifully equipped. They even provided a very helpful, detailed binder on the area with recommendations, maps and coupons! The location was perfect: access to the waterfront and an easy walk to downtown Stuart. I visit the Stuart area frequently and have stayed in almost every hotel in the area; however, I will be staying here for all future visits!

Natural Setting and Town Life all in One

Location of cottage is a convenient 10 minute walk to downtown Stuart. Experience the Riverwalk and Farmer's Market, downtown life and a lush natural setting all in one.... Garden lovers: Lush vegetation, blossoming plants, bamboo gardens , fresh lettuce and herbs for your daily picking.(We had fresh picked pineapple for breakfast!) Kitchen well equipped for a gourmet cook, colorful, comfortable living space and immaculately clean. Enjoy sunsets on the dock. (table and chairs set up for early morning coffee or a glass of wine in the evening.) Our host, George was very helpful with directions and places to see....and we can't forget "Pokey" the welcoming cat !!!

"Water is the the most important element in life....,because without it you can't make coffee" C.B.

Great place on the water with the sweet aromatic smell of coffee...... We really enjoyed our stay. Plenty to see, do and eat within walking distance and a short drive will get you to the beach. The owners of this lovely cottage go above and beyond to make you feel comfortable and welcomed. I only wish we stayed longer. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking enjoy Stuart like a local.
