The Space
Our Cottage, off the main exhibit space, boasts a queen size bed, writing desk, and mini-kitchen. At approximately 450 square feet, the converted property was designed for contemplation and rest. Guests can expect a comfortable space for two.
There is a memory foam queen-size murphy bed and room to hang your clothes. The mini-kitchen has sink, stove, fridge, as well as pots, pans and dishes. There is a bar-height counter, free Internet, and a secret garden for sipping your morning coffee. A trendy corrugated metal shower and composting toilet round out your tiny-house experience.
Ideal for singles, students, pregnant couples, and travelers from afar, your stay includes a private introduction to the M.O.M. Museum with access to current exhibit features. Simply make arrangements with your host for the date and time of your detailed tour.
The Neighborhood
St. Petersburg is a City of the Arts. St. Petersburg’s thriving arts and culture scene reaches far beyond the state of Florida. Represented by outstanding museums, scores of independent galleries, a successful, close-knit community of working artists and crafts-people, and a stellar performing arts community, St. Petersburg’s cultural scene is one of the best in the southeastern United States, and it is located on the Gulf of Mexico. What could be better?
Getting Around
The nearest airport is Tampa International. The SuperShuttle from Tampa to St. Pete is approximately $50. Ubers and taxis are available too, as are rental cars. Once in St. Pete there is public transportation by trolley, bicycle, and cab. However, a car makes getting around super-convenient.
Other Things To Note
We especially welcome those interested in family studies, pregnant couples, PhD students, travelers curious about American motherhood, and art-lovers. This is my home, live/work space, so your appreciation, respect, and interest are greatly appreciated. We are looking to educate and enlighten our guests, so bring your curiosity and sense of appreciation, please.
