About this property

Hemingway Cottage right on the Pithlacootee River

This cozy, 2 bedroom, 1 bath 1935, Hemingway style cottage is very close to historic New Port Richey, Florida. Our house is completely renovated with modern appliances and comfortably furnished. It has a fully equipped kitchen with microwave, table with 4 chairs, living room with TV and WiFi. The bathroom with shower is handicapped friendly. Both bedrooms are furnished with "queen" beds. Waschecke with large washer and dryer are in a corner of the Floridazimmer, where you can sit comfortably. There is also a table and 6 chairs. The garden is fenced and has plenty of parking for cars and boat.

Surroundings: Our Hemingway Cottage is within walking distance of the cafes, restaurants and the center of New Port Richey. It is right on Sims Park and in the immediate vicinity of picturesque Orange Lake, which is a great place to go for a walk! Walk through Sims Park to Main Street or walk along the scenic Pithlachascotee River. Sims Park has a wonderful covered children's playground and a small water park for children, with a gym for the older ones and an Amphi Theater!
New Port Richey and thus Sims Park are host to many events such as the Chasco streets and boat parade in March, the Christmas parade and boat parade in December, various outdoor movies, concerts, outdoor markets, etc.
You can see the public boat ramp, which is located on Main Street and River Road from the house. You could also kayaks or a dinghy from the Sims Park into the water.

History: New Port Richey seemed to become another Hollywood in the twenties or at least a winter holiday for Hollywood stars. Famous celebrities, including Irving Berlin, Gene Sarazan, Charlie Chaplin, Gloria Swanson, Johnny Cash and Shirley Temple, came to the event. Many famous people spent time here and attended social events at the Hacienda Hotel, right on Sims Park. At the moment the hacienda is being renovated.
Other: Other nearby parks include Starkey Park, Green Key Beach and James E. Gray Preserve. Howard Park Beach and Tarpons Springs are approximately 8 miles from New Port Richey. Other nearby are z. B. Busch Gardens, Florida Aquarium, Ybor City and the Dalli Museum.

A quaint littke find!!

The location was perfect! We regret that due to colder weather, we did not get out to enjoy the park and riverwalk. The heart of New Port Richey is very charming and easily accessible on foot. Communication with Andrea was excellent. Since we used the front door to come and go, a walkway, if some sort, to the driveway would have been handy to avoid going through the yard. The cottage was very comfortable for our needs. A pod type coffee maker would have been nice, as we did bring pods from home. Furniture was comfortable and it was nice to have a few fleece throws to use. The outlets on the bedside clocks were a welcome find! We would definitely stay again if in the area. .

We really enjoyed our stay here. The location is just perfect, close to everything but still private. The cottage was so cute and very clean. I love Muscovy ducks and there were plenty to see and feed. Andrea was wonderful and very prompt with communication. 10/10 would stay here again. Thank you!!

Im a Mountain Man

The cottage is well situated in a quiet neighborhood. The well groomed community park just across the street worked perfectly for my daily dawn stroll. Many resteraunts are within easy walking distance. Several other community parks with trails are withinn 15 minutes. Nearest beach aporoximatly 8 minutes away. Plenty of wading birds to watch in the beighborhood. I did see manatees on several occassions in the adjacent canal style river. If you like Florida you will like the cottage and neighborhood but I was born on a mountain and lived in a cave and Appalachia is all that I crave.

Home away from home

This was a quaint little home with just the right amount of things to make it feel like a home, but not be too much stuff. The AC stayed at the appropiate temperature we set it at. No bugs to be found in tge home whatsoever, other than an occasional lizard out on the lanai 😁, but thats to be expected in Florida. Communication was great with Andrea. I would give her feedback on just a few very minor things that I noticed and she responded with grace and appreciation. My father loves this little cottage and we will definitely stay here again if ever in the area. Thank you Andrea for making us feel like this was our home away from home

Cozy house with lots of nearby activities.

Went to Florida to visit my son and family. This place was close to their home and had lots of things to keep the kiddos busy while visiting us - games, playground and park nearby. The host was great at communicating with me. Thanks so much for sharing your place.

Wonderful return visit to Hemingway Cottage!

Stayed with Andrea last year and couldn’t wait to come back! Clean, comfortable home with all the amenities we needed for a relaxing and stress free vacation. Located on the edge of Sims Park we strolled along the Pithlachascotee River and thru the beautiful Park to the vibrant New Port Richey downtown many times…peaceful and perfect for us. Andrea continues to be a great Host as evidenced by our thoughtful accommodations and her clear and immediate communication when needed. Treat yourself…come to the Cottage, unwind and relax!

We enjoyed our stay at Hemmingway Cottage!

Great location in the center of revitalized Downtown New Port Richey. Right across the street from Sims Park and Orange Lake and the Cotee Riverwalk. Great surroundings for activities and daily walks. Downtown has a wide variety of restaurants, craft breweries, ice cream shops, theater and the renovated Hacienda Hotel has a great restaurant. The cottage suited us perfectly and Andrea, the host was a pleasure to deal with, always ready to help with any needs. Would definitely recommend a stay at The Cottage!

The cottage is quaint and was comfortable for two people. The park is right across the street and Main Street is on the other side of the park with lots of shops and restaurants. for walking during the day. All of this you see while you walk along the river.

New Port Richey is a wonderfully laid back small city and this rental is the best! Completely walkable to all the town has to offer and right across the street from a beautiful park on the river. The landlord Andrea is very nice and helpful with any questions and the cottage is clean and supplied with everything to make you right at home. Can’t wait to visit again.

All We Hoped For…

Wonderful, wonderful stay! We totally enjoyed Sims Park at our door…so much to leisurely see and do. Andrea was very responsive to our inquiries and her home was very comfortable…so much so we’re coming back next year! Short drive to the beaches, walk to shops and restaurants - anything we needed, yet the cottage neighborhood was quiet and peaceful. Watching the birds, walking along the River…the perfect get-away for us.
