About Lori Singleton

My Grandfather bought this property back in the 1970's. My brothers and I spent our childhood summers, holidays and any chance in between visiting him as often as we could. I developed a love for the water and all the wonder of the Keys at a very young age and to this day every sunset still amazes me. He taught us to cherish all the beauty that surrounds this special place and to share it with as many as we could. I moved to our family property shortly after my grandfather passed away and my husband and I have been looking after it ever since. As of 2010 we have been renting out our different cottages to couples and families searching to find a unique paradise to create lasting memories of there own...

The Conch House

5 of 5
Submitted: March 26, 2013 Stayed: March 2013
My husband and I just returned from a vacation in the Keys at the Conch House. This place is exactly as advertised, perfect in every way. Lori and Bobby work hard to create a low keyed atmosphere and their attention to detail is amazing. Our week was relaxing, restful, and we wanted for nothing. All equipment is already there, no need to bring a thing.....we snorkeled and kayaked every day...my husband was able to fish and lobster to his heart's content....we will be going back. The Conch House was exceeding clean and well appointed. Loved everything about it. Our only regret was having to leave.We would gladly recommend the Bayside Cottages to anyone.

Owner's Response: Denise and Eugene,
Thank you so much for taking the time to write such a nice review. We are so happy you enjoyed your time here. It really makes all the work that is involved worth it to be able share our little piece of paradise with people just like you. I am thrilled that Eugene caught nearly his limit in lobster (on more than one occasion) right off the dock! There is nothing like grilling up your own catch of the day and being able to enjoy fresh lobster over cocktails and a sunset! I am so happy you were able to experience that here along with all the other great amenities the property has to offer.We are very much looking forward to having you as our guest again next March. Thank you again for your kind words.
All the best,
Lori and Bobby

LOVED IT!!!

5 of 5
Submitted: May 13, 2012 Stayed: May 2012
After spending four nights at the Bayside Cottage in Islamorada - we know two things. First, staying on the Bay side is the by FAR best, and the Bayside Cottage is the perfect Keys experience. Quiet, private, delightfully decorated and extremely comfortable. Fabulous sunset views and pet friendly so even though we didn't have our own dogs - we were able to enjoy the other dog-guests. Lori and Bobby are excellent hosts and have done an incredible job with the property Lori's grandfather bought in the 70's. Their love of the place is evident and they make every effort to provide anything you could need for a great Keys vacation. The only effort on our part was to decide where to eat or what to fix in our own kitchen. And there's even a really good restaurant just a few steps from your doorway.
If you're going to the Keys - you couldn't do better than choosing the Bayside Cottage.

A STUNNING GEM IN THE KEYS!

5 of 5
Submitted: May 9, 2012 Stayed: May 2012
My husband and I have been vacationing in the Keys for years and although we've stayed at some of the premiere places in the Keys, they are all a bit tired. We were looking for an intimate place on the water with boat access/dockage that was reasonably priced, fresh and impeccably clean. WE FOUND IT AND MORE! The Conch cottage is absolutely hands down the best place to stay in the Keys! A stunning water view from the private terrace, beautiful grounds, fantastically comfortable beds, superior linens and modern furnishings, lovely cottage with everything anyone could possibly need. Snorkeling right off of the grounds, fishing off of the dock, outdoor kitchen for grilling and some of the nicest dining places nearby. You enter the property and feel like you have arrived at your own private island. WE LOVED IT! The proprietors, Lori and Bobby, are the nicest people you will ever meet. Bring your swimsuit and clothes--everything else is provided. Don't give it a second thought--book your stay. It's the best decision you will make--you will love this place!

Most relaxing vacation in years!

Our wonderful experience far exceeded my expectations! The entire family (including the dog!) was able to truly relax and have fun together. Lori has created a beautiful, clean, worry free laid-back atmosphere with amazing amenities and opportunities to both keep the family together and let us each spend some individual time in our own favorite vacation pasttimes. Wonderful place to both play and relax. Being able to safely and comfortably have our dog with us only increased the fun! We plan to return as soon as we can. Thank you Bayside Cottage!

An ideal Keys vacation

5 of 5
Submitted: February 22, 2012 Stayed: February 2012
We just returned yesterday from an amazing 6 night stay at The Conch House. Lori and Bobbi (not to mention the other couples staying in the other two cottages) made the trip totally relaxing and worry-free. Other than your groceries, everything you'd need is on-site - snorkel gear, fishing gear, beach towels, kayaks, etc.

As someone who starts thinking about the family trip the minute the weather starts getting cold, I'm the first to start looking for a fun destination for my wife and two kids (14 and 17). We've been to PR and Mexico and I really wanted to find a true Florida Keys spot to share with the family. After looking at big hotels and other rentals, we found The Bayside Cottages and it is everything that Bobby and Lori say it is - and much more.

The Conch House is beautifully furnished and both bedrooms have designer touches that make them feel both comfortable and hip. The master bedroom and living room open out to a huge patio with plenty of furniture for lounging outdoors. The view from the house down to the water is perfect - with shade trees and a great sandy area stretching down to the water's edge.

While I was out at the store, my wife and kids saw and played with a big manatee that swam in for a visit and a drink of water. I missed him, though I certainly tried to find him on my many swims and kayak trips out into the bay.

Evening sunsets on the dock were spectacular, we took advantage of the well-appointed grill and dining area and we spent all our nights gazing at the stars.

The vibe at The Conch House is laid back and we were in full "vacation mode" within minutes of our arrival.

I really could go on and on...

If you want a true Keys vacation this is a perfect spot to unwind.
