The Island City and goes through parts of Fort Lauderdale, connecting to the Intracoastal Waterway. If you’re feeling adventurous and want to explore, we also have kayaks and paddle-boards. We are located walking distance to Wilton Drive (a.k.a The Drive) but on a quiet street away from all the hustle and bustle. This listing is for one of two available apartments at this property. Each apartment is different and with it’s own unique features, so please checkout the complete details and photos to decide which best fits your needs. My partner and I live downstairs and share the outside areas with our guests. Both apartments are upstairs, there is no elevator access to the second floor. We are a gay couple and rent to MEN ONLY. All outdoor areas including, pool, hot tub, outdoor shower, covered patio and outdoor dining areas are clothing optional. We want you to feel comfortable, wear as much or as little as you’d like. We offer a relaxing setting where you can lounge comfortably by the pool, listen to music, read a book or sit by the water and watch the sun go down. There’s also a private play area... We are a friendly open-minded household where you can getaway from it all, sit and chill or indulge in all the fun, restaurants and bars Wilton Manors (a.k.a. The Gayborhood) has to offer. Wilton Manors is one of the top gayest cities in U.S. and is home to the annual Stonewall Pride Parade, FlockFest (beach party), Floatarama (pride on the water), and Wicked Manors (annual Halloween event). There’s always something fun going on at The Drive or venture out to several of the nearby bathhouses. We’re a short drive to the beaches and downtown Fort Lauderdale.

Arnie and Jacob moved to the Fort Lauderdale over 10 years ago after falling in love with the weather, ocean and relaxed lifestyle. We searched a long time for a home close to Wilton Manors, with a private yard, hot tub, beautiful pool, and waterfront views. Walkability to Wilton Manors was a must! We loved the idea of hosting guests and making new friends. We hope you enjoy our little piece of paradise.

Arnie and Jacob have such a beautiful home and are excellent hosts! They thought of everything in the design of the house and all the features. You can't beat the location. It is a short walk to the drive. The outdoor shower was my favorite bonus! I will be returning to Middle River Landing!

The entire property is an oasis in Wilton Manors. The apartment is very nice, clean, and comfortable. The kitchen is stocked very well with all the items you need to cook if you choose. The hosts provide pool/beach towels for your stay. The backyard sits on the river/canal that runs through Wilton Manors. The yard is decorated with beautiful FL plants and flowers. The pool is a very nice size, has a small "deck" in the pool for chairs. The temperature was great and the hot tub is comfy and relaxing, with the best foot massager jets I have experienced. Arnie and Jakob were very good hosts. They are both gracious, warm, and available to answer any questions about the area. There is also free parking in the driveway. We will definitely be returning for another visit.

Arnie and Jacob are phenomenal hosts. Super warm and welcoming. The day I landed there was a tropical storm and they were polite to invite me downstairs to have brunch with them and their friends. Highly recommend staying with them. The location is perfect and close to everything within Wilton Manors.
