Potter's Cottage - Nightly Rental

The cottage is wonderful. My husband and I stayed her for a week while our children were at sea camp. Everything was clean and neat. The interior is update and well done. We were there in early August so we used the pool every day. The location is perfect because it is quiet yet close to all the shops and restaurants and out of the super "touristy" loud bar, bad food scene. I was a little frustrated with the management company on a couple of things but the staff was very helpful and professional. I did not like the deposit process from Key west. I thought $3,000 was excessive and told them I thought that was high and they said they could take a $60 non-refundable fee in lieu of charging my card. I find this just another charge. Also they did not meet us at the unit and we had to drop the key off at their office 10 blocks away. This is very inconvenient when you have luggage as there is as parking is difficult to find so you have the walk. I also think the service fee VRBO now implements since under new management is excessive.

A wonderful time was had in Key West recently. Potter’s Cottage was the perfect choice for two couples. It is a lovely, well appointed property. We couldn’t have survived the July heat without the plunge pool. It was a welcome treat to come to after all of our walking and site seeing. Historic Key West Vacation Rental staff were so helpful and courteous. My only small “grumble” was having to use an offsite luggage storage service for our last day. It would have been much more convenient to leave it at the rental office. I would definitely recommend Potter’s Cottage to anyone visiting Key West.

The house was perfect, from the location, to the relaxing back yard with dipping pool and how quiet it was at night even being one block from Duval. Told my wife she can book this place for the surprise bday get away she plans for me.

We loved the place very clean.

Our family had a great time in Florida, but having a home with a grill to cook outside and pool to relax by was like we had a home there.

Manager's Response

We absolutely LOVED Potter's Cottage. The perfect location and yet still so quiet and relaxing. We lounged by the pool and enjoyed some much needed R&R. When we wanted to take in the sights, everything was a quick walk over to Duval Street. The cottage itself is perfectly appointed with everything you could need. Each room was perfectly decorated and had such a warm and homey feel. We didn't want to leave. Thanks for having us! We can't wait to come back.

Great all around - from check in - to check out. This is our second year staying at a home managed by Historic Key West Rentals - and each time the homes have been super clean and nice.

We spent the weekend here for our friends birthday and this 2 bed / 2 bath home was perfect. Very clean. Well kept. Smack dab in the middle of old town. Walking distance to everything. It was end of July and very hot so coming back from being out and jumping into the dipping pool was ideal. Highly recommend this place to anyone looking for something quiet and cozy. Also, the property management company was very accommodating and thorough.

The house is located in a great location, is very clean and perfect for 4 or 5 people. The shower upstairs is a bit small, but everything else was absolutely perfect! The pool is a great size for cooling off and taking a quick dip. The rental company was great to work with as well!

Manager's Response

The cottage was immaculate and well-stocked with needed items (Even sunscreen!). The location was perfect, just a block from the Hemingway House and near Duvall Street and Mallory Square (a bit of a walk to Mallory square, but not bad).

We were here for a wedding and I shared the home with others in the wedding party. The size, location, and needs were met perfectly for what we needed!

Potter's cottage was the perfect property for our family. It was spotless and in a great location to walk to most of the sights in Key West.

We were 5 adults traveling to Key West for a weekend wedding and Potters Cottage was great for our stay. One single adult slept on the (never really comfortable but manageable) pull out sofa in the den and the other two couples each had a bedroom. The beds were very comfortable. The cottage was spotless and well equipped!! Very nice decor and again so clean!! Great location to everything. We would stay there again.

This was a perfect place for our first extended stay in Key West. It was comfortable and met all our needs. The location was perfect, close to beaches, restaurants and 1 block from Duval street. Having Phil to help us navigate deliveries, reservations, etc. was such an added plus! Thank you Phil! Thank you Potter Cottage for a memorable vacation!

The cottage was charming and beautifully decorated. Plenty of room for two couples. It was spotless and very well equipped with a starter supply of paper products and soap etc. The location is perfect and you can walk or ride bikes to everywhere. The backyard is so private and the pool is heated to perfection. Beds great too.
Danny(concierge for Historic Key West Properties) could not have been nicer or more helpful! He and the owners went above and beyond to make sure that we had a great vacation! Highly recommend this place!

Potters Cottage was the perfect relaxation destination! It was very centrally located to all the attractions in Key West, was clean, and though the pool is very small, we thoroughly enjoyed its peaceful, private setting. Potters Cottage has all of the comforts of home. We will most definitely be going back!

We did not get to Key West due to Hurricane Irma. We were very disappointed, but kept everyone in the Keys and the entire state of Florida in our prayers. We would love to visit, stay in Potter's Cottage, and have the opportunity to share our experience with others. Looking forward to it, and hope it will happen.

Potter's Cottage was wonderful! It had everything you could possibly need, even a shy iguana that would peak through the trees every now and then. The pool was a life saver on those hot and humid August days. My only caution is that the stairs to the loft bedroom are quite steep and narrow. I slept up there (the bed was great), but stayed downstairs any other time. The bonus room made a great changing area. My son and I can not wait to return next year!

Beautiful home. This is clearly a home the owner cares about, well furnished and decorated, not just cheap furniture and a few posters. The home is beautiful, well furnished and comfortable. Historic Key West Vacation Rentals was a pleasure to deal with, responding quickly to any questions, check-in and check out was quick and helpful. House was as described and better. House can easily and comfortably sleep 6. Kitchen is a good, workable size. Downstairs bathroom shower is huge, upstairs shower is on the small side but fine. Smart TV with cable (we appreciated being able to log in to our Netflix acct when we wanted to watch a particular movie) in the living room, cable tv in each bedroom. Pool and patio are the gems. Large plunge pool, covered and uncovered patio areas with overhead fans (we're from the NW, not used to the humidity in Key West, the pool was a Godsend), very private, lots of chairs and loungers.Washer and dryer are located outside in a cabinet, very quiet. One caution, the stairs to the upstairs bedroom are steep and narrow, would not be great for the elderly or young children. House is very close (a couple of blocks) to the Hemingway House, Lighthouse, Southernmost Point, DuVal Street, great restaurants and the best conch salad on the planet (Johnson's Grocery, trust me). We could not have been happier with the house or Historic Key West Rentals. This one is a gem.

Loved the cottage had a great experience. The only thing that would make it better would be softer bed, (very stiff,) and cooler temp in the pool. Don't know if the pool was heated or it was the sun? Oh and maybe Salt and Pepper and sugar packets.

We (two couples) spent the Memorial Day weekend in Key West at the Potter's Cottage.
It was everything that we wanted and more. The unit is located at a great location and, despite being on Whitehead (a busy street) there was no annoying street noise.
The kitchen was well-equipped, the rooms comfortable and the pool was fabulous.
I would highly recommend it!

Everything was ready for us upon our arrival. House was perfect and very clean. Location was fantastic, walking distance to Duval Street and the Southernmost Point. Only complaint would be parking.

We recently stayed at Potter's Cottage on our first ever trip to Key West. It was the perfect place for us! The property is perfectly located for people who want to be walking distance to all the major attractions but want a little space from all the noise of upper Duval. The Cottage is charming. It is beautifully decorated with all the amenities you need. The pool and patio are a perfect place to relax at the end of a busy day sightseeing. My only qualification would be for people with limited mobility or who have trouble climbing stairs. The master bedroom is wonderful but the stairs are quite steep so if that would be an issue it might not be the best place to stay. Otherwise it was perfect. Danny was our concierge and helpfully gave us several suggestions of places to eat and they were all fabulous.

Fantastic cottage. Just far enough off Duval, but close enough by bike. Perfect property for our family. Master suite is ideal. Our 2 daughters had their space as well. Updated appliances, cutlery, TVs, patio furniture, towels, bathrooms... hesitant to share such a glowing review as we want to come back.

This was our 2nd stay at Potter's in 3 months. This is a wonderful cottage, with all the amenities you would ever need. The house is ideal for 2 couples with one bedroom downstairs and one upstairs providing some additional privacy. There is a wonderful deck and covered area around the pool (we spent more time here then in the house!). The management company provided us with 2 nice lounge chairs for the pool, as the other seats are chairs and not designed for sunbathing. The house is in an ideal location just a block off Duval St and a block from Hemingway's home and the lighthouse. You are very centrally located here making it a easy walk to anywhere in old town. We will be back to Potter's cottage again!

Wonderful cottage with delightful fenced in deck/pool/lanai area. Loved the front porch for coffee in morning and people watching at night. Perfect distance from Duval and other amenities. Comfy cottage and nicely decorated. If you have bad knees, plan on staying in the ground level bedroom. Stairs to upstairs are a bit steep but fine if you're in shape.

We had the most amazing time in Key West. Potter's Cottage is spotlessly clean, well equipped, beautifully furnished and in walking distance to everything. It was perfect for us (2 couples)and we can't wait to come back. Thank you!

Very cute and very well laid out cottage.

The location is perfect, but not too close to the tourist areas to be loud.

The plunge pool is a good size, and I recommend the option of having it heated in the winter.

Perfect for two couples and even a fifth person, with the little side room.

Our rental experience was acceptable even with a couple of issues. We would recommend this agency. We will consider using them when we vacation in Key West again (like next year). We especially were thankful for the cleanliness of the house. We enjoyed the decor and furniture inside and outside. It was very cool and tropical! Having upper end quality bed collections, towels, etc. is ideal for us. The location was quiet. We enjoy walking so the distance to Sloppy Joes, etc. did not bother us. Sure wish the pool was bigger. Then Potter's Cottage would be perfect. The managers were great, friendly and had attention to details. Yea!

Our family of five recently rented the Potter's Cottage for a week in July. We knew that it was on the smaller side, but there was actually plenty of room for all of us. We loved the location, which was an easy walking distance to restaurants, etc. on Duval, as well as several beaches that we enjoyed. The pool was a great addition due to the very warm weather. It was great to have Phil to make suggestions and assist with our reservations for dinner, etc.. He is a great asset to HKWVR. On our next visit to Key West, we would definitely rent this cottage again.

We thought the property was lovely and we loved the location. On several occasions the neighbors behind caused quite a disturbance. The guest bedroom mattress is hard as a rock which not quite so comfortable. Would like a TV or at least some type of speaker to be able to enjoy music on the deck around the pool. Loved the front porch and enjoyed people watching. Would definitely stay there again!
