Welcome to The Myrtle House - your completely renovated, lake community cottage escape. Designed with intention and simplicity, this fresh retreat offers all you need and nothing you don't. Enjoy peaceful mornings, lake breezes and Florida living at its best. Ideal for couples, small families or solo getaways with views and access to Little Lake Harris and proximity to the Howey Mansion. We welcome our outdoor enthusiasts (fisherman friends) with parking available to accommodate 2 rigs!
Super clean and super cute. We were in town for a volleyball tournament at hickory point recreation facility so it was a very convenient location. A nice walking trail along the lake and a little playground are steps from the house. We will make it our regular spot when in town.
Very well appointed with high end elements! The house lacked nothing and was perfect for our stay to visit Renningers antique extravaganza. The driveway easily fit our truck and trailer with room for two additional cars. Great stay!
I have a deep love for community and design and enjoy sharing the places that have come to mean so much to my husband and I. I am a designer, married to Jeff - a meticulous builder - and together we find great joy in restoring found homes that simply need a little love. We've shared our homes for many years and excited to add Myrtle to our collection. We hope you love the house and the town of Howey-in-the-Hills as much as we do.
We spend our weekends on the Harris Chain of Lakes, drawn to the close-knit community, Floridaâs uncommon rolling hills, and the character of the small lake townsârich with festivals, markets, and timeless old-Florida charm.
This fully renovated home is just steps from the lake and walking trail, perched high on one of Howeyâs hillside streets. Itâs an ideal upscale option for guests attending weddings at nearby venuesâperfect for staying close with a larger group or simply enjoying more space and amenities than a traditional hotel. A lakeside restaurant is easily accessed by the fully charged golf cart available for guest use. The home offers premium appliances and modern amenities, including an EV charging station. Outside, enjoy a large private backyard with a firepit, screened porch, and new grill. The rare double-wide drivewayâhard to find on Howeyâs original streetsâallows parking for two fishing rigs, a major advantage for tournament visitors.
