Built in 1937, this historic home still has plenty of charm, but everything in this two bedroom, one bathroom house was renovated in January, 2022: New floors, glass shower, butcher block countertops, appliances, and furniture!

Located on quiet, conveniently located Riverview Drive (east of US1), everything Downtown Melbourne has to offer is just a short walk away. Riverview Cottage is our newest offering at The Riverview. With 2 bedrooms and one bathroom, a living room, a full kitchen, a laundry room, and a screened front porch, this is the largest property at The Riverview.


THE SPACE
Even though this is a stand alone house, it is still for rest and relaxation and we expect our guests to be respectful of the neighbors. If you are looking for a place to party, THIS IS NOT THE PLACE FOR YOU. If you are looking for a quiet, cozy house in Downtown Melbourne where you can relax, look no further!


PETS
This house is dog friendly for a maximum of two dogs, on a case by case basis. We charge an $80 Pet Fee and also require an additional $500 security deposit to cover any potential damage. This deposit will be returned in full after confirming there is no damage to the house after you checkout.

If you would like to bring a pet, please message us the breed and size of your dog, and confirm that you will never leave your dog unattended. Whenever you leave the house, your dog needs to leave with you.

Finally, this should go without saying, but please clean up after your dog.

The above rules are in place for the safety, security, and comfort of our guests and the protection of the property. These should be straight-forward and easy to follow for 99% of guests. For those who choose to break the rules, please be aware of the following: *Tampering with or obstructing any security camera will result in a $500 fee, and you will be requested to immediately vacate the premises with no refund. *A fee of $500 will be assessed if there is any evidence of smoking (anything) inside the building. *A fee of $100 per additional person will be assessed if additional visitors not on the reservation enter the property without prior approval, and you will be requested to immediately vacate the premises with no refund - THIS IS NOT THE PLACE TO HAVE PARTY. *A fee of $100 per animal will be assessed if you bring an unauthorized pet inside the house, and you will be requested to immediately vacate the premises with no refund. *We do NOT ask guests to do any cleaning beyond the cookware/dishes/silverware they use during their stay. We do not ask people to clean, strip beds, wash towels, take out the trash, etc, but we do expect people to treat our property with respect. If the unit is left overly-dirty, to the point where it takes our housekeeper much longer than usual to clean, resulting in a higher fee charged to us, this fee will be passed on to the guest. We have almost never had to take any of the above actions for any of our properties and certainly don't ever want to.

Payment Policy
When making a reservation, guests are required to provide payment in accordance with the following schedule: For reservation made more than 7 days prior to the check-in date, 50% of the total reservation cost must be paid at the time of booking, with the remaining 50% due 7 days before check-in.

Cancellation Policy
CANCELLATION POLICY/TRAVEL INSURANCE
We understand that circumstances can change and guests may need to cancel their reservation. To facilitate this process, we have established the following cancellation and refund policy:

Guests who cancel their reservation more than 30 days prior to their scheduled check-in date will receive a full refund of the initial 50% payment made at the time of booking, less approximately 3% of the payment amount to cover non-refundable credit card fees. Guests who cancel their reservation between 7 and 30 days before check-in will not receive a refund of the initial 50% payment, but will not be charged the remaining 50% balance due 7 days before check-in, thereby receiving a 50% refund of the total reservation cost. Cancellations made within 7 days of the check-in date are non-refundable.

We hope that this policy is clear and transparent, and we encourage guests to contact us with any questions or concerns they may have prior to booking. We are running a small business and are not able to make exceptions to this policy to provide larger refunds if you need to cancel your reservation within 30 days of your arrival date for any reason, including due to any weather-related events, Covid-19, family emergencies, etc. It is also our policy to not accept any reservation change requests made within 30 days of your arrival date that involve moving your reservation dates into the future.

We strongly recommend that you obtain Travel Insurance for your trip in case of any unforeseen circumstances that could lead to you needing to cancel your reservation. A simple online search for "travel insurance" will provide you with many options.

Notes
CHILDREN
This home is not childproof by any means, but we will allow children on a case by case basis. Please message me before booking.

PRICING
A note about pricing: You may notice that our daily rate fluctuates as you browse through our availability calendar. This is because we use a third-party software that automatically updates our listings' prices to ensure they remain competitive and stay BELOW the market rate for comparable properties in the area. Daily prices change due to season, area hotel occupancy rates, last minute availability, and so on. We use this tool to ensure our prices are fair, and doing so leads to us having close to full occupancy all year long.

PESTS
We have regular preventative pest control services at all of our properties and very rarely see any bugs because of this, but this is Florida, and the occasional pest (or cute gecko/anole) could find its way inside. In the unlikely event that you do see a bug, we would be happy to send pest control to retreat the property (this is part of the service we pay for), but you will not be eligible for any type of refund because of this.
