Transcend time and experience the Fort Lauderdale of a century ago while you explore the trails, rooms and breezeways where the Bartletts created their own private world of art. Nestled among miles of beachfront development are 35 acres of a pristine barrier island ecosystem that make up the Bonnet House estate. See one of the finest orchid collections in the U.S and catch a glimpse of wading birds in the fresh water lake.
