We're located walking and biking distance to some of Orlando's favorite restaurants, bars, and music venues (but far enough that noise is never an issue). The house is located a few blocks into the residential neighborhood between vibrant Mills50 and hip Audubon Park Garden District. The Mills50 business area features incredible, family-owned restaurants and shops, as well as some of the city's favorite bars and businesses. Hot-spots include BBQ and taco favorite, Pig Floyd's; Latin-Asian fusion taco restaurant, Tako Cheena; 10Ten Brewing Company; Quantum Leap Winery; local favorite music venue, Will's Pub; New American neighborhood restaurant, The Strand; neighborhood cocktail bar, Guesthouse; and many more. Just up the road, Audubon Park is known for housing Orlando's first indoor farmer's market, East End Market; a nationally known beer parlour, Redlight Redlight; a bike-themed breakfast spot, Bikes, Beans, and Bordeaux; beautiful Leu Gardens, and much, much more!

Guest Access

You have full 24-hour access to your private garden cottage detached from the main house, as well as the patio with table and chair set (recommended for breakfast, lunch, or sundowners!). Guests have access to a washer and dryer located in the main house's laundry room (through separate back entrance) upon request.

We stayed here for 9 days and absolutely loved it! The place was super cute, clean, and perfect for just the two of us. It had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The location was amazing—right in the Mills 50 area, so there were tons of great food spots nearby to explore. The neighborhood was quiet and peaceful, which made it easy to relax. Our host Alex was also really nice and made us feel welcome. He let us know to reach out if we ever needed anything, which we really appreciated. Would definitely recommend and would stay again!

My second stay with Alex and I'm so happy it was available! I absolutely love the garden. It is a peaceful and beautiful walkway, so welcoming! It is private, quiet and very clean. Kitchen is well stocked, bathroom is pristine, super soft pillows on the bed, lots of windows but good shades and curtains. The location is a perfect WP spot - close to everything I needed including best secret gem restaurants, shopping and grocery. Alex is great! Very welcoming, fast to respond and helpful. I totally recommend staying with Alex and hope to stay myself again!

From the minute we arrived to this little piece of heaven we were welcomed by the most gracious host! From the beginning to end (so sad to leave) Alex was there to help with whatever we needed. It was the perfect weekend getaway. We will for sure be returning! 🫶🏽🩷💙🌞
