ESCAPE TO LITTLE GASPARILLA ISLAND
Peacock Lane Cottage is located on magical “Little Gasparilla Island” on the Southwest Coast of
Florida. It is located about ½ between Sarasota and Fort Myers.
Palm Island is just to our north and the historic Boca Grande is just to our south.
“LGI” is a private, bridge-less, barrier island accessible “only” by boat and has 7 miles of an
unspoiled white sugar sand beach filled with the most incredible shells and sharks’ teeth you
will ever experience! Shell collectors, you have found your magical Island!
Take the 10-15 minute Water Taxi which runs 365 days a year from Eldred’s Marina across the
bay.
You are welcome to bring your own boat as the dock can accommodate up to 26’ with deep
water dockage.
Whether you come by Water Taxi or your personal boat, you will be met by our Island Greeter
and he will bring you, your groceries and luggage up the sandy lane to the cottage.
There are no stores, cars or businesses on “LGI” only sandy paths that you can explore by foot
or golf cart. You can rent a golf cart but it is not necessary as you can explore the entire Island
walking north or south. Shoes optional!
Arriving at the cottage you will immediately notice the tropical gardens surrounding the entire
property which create a tranquil privacy. Tall, swaying coconut palms, cabbage palms and
Areca palms in harmony with lush sea grapes and sea oats.
Just a few steps from the cottage is the beautiful turquoise waters of the Gulf of Mexico……..
