About this property

BEAUTIFUL WATERFRONT HOME WITH BOATHOUSE AND HUGE PORCHES!

This beautiful home is located on a wide canal that's just minutes from the ship channel. The private 200 foot waterfront lot and large yard is all yours to enjoy! Your fishing guide can pick you up right from the back yard. The boat house has two stalls with boat lifts so you can pull right in after a day of fishing or crabbing, an outdoor pellet grill, a large area to relax and enjoy the beautiful outdoors, and a newly built climate controlled storage room with easy access from the driveway and boathouse (it has french doors on the front and back). The home includes 6 bedrooms, 4 bathrooms and lots of extra space for large groups to spread out, including a downstairs game room with a pool table and huge upstairs and downstairs porches. The beautiful kitchen has all stainless appliances including a Jenn Air stove, dishwasher and oven, a microwave and refrigerator. It also has granite countertops and a large walk in pantry and is open to the living and dining rooms. Included for your convenience are two full sized washers and dryers. There's a live well in the boat house for storing your fresh catch or bait. The large porches on the front and back are a great place to hang out and enjoy the soft coastal breezes. The master bath has double vanities, a double shower with a steam bath option, and a walk-in closet. The master bedroom has a king sized bed and a large TV. The hall bath has a claw foot tub and beautiful finishes. Downstairs you will find a game room with a pool table and a gas fireplace. There's another fireplace upstairs in the living room. The home has a total of 7 TV's to accommodate all your needs. An enclosed garage offers storage space for all your gear. There's a commercial ice machine and a freezer downstairs for fishing and hunting needs and a boiling pot and burner (propane provided) to cook that fresh catch. This unique home sits on a large 1 acre lot with 200 feet of water frontage, which offers lots of privacy. Regular mosquito treatment means you won't be chased in by mosquitos while enjoying your home! The driveway is large and can accommodate many cars and boats (great for large groups). We hope you will love this home as much as we do!

We used this property for a small company trip, and it was absolutely perfect! The house was spacious enough for everyone to spread out and relax without feeling like we were on top of each other, and it had ALL the amenities we could have asked for.Another huge plus was the parking! We had 6 vehicles and a boat trailer, and there was still plenty of room for everyone. This made everything so convenient for our group.After days spent fishing and crabbing, we loved winding down in the evenings enjoying the outdoor seating area, playing cards, watching football, and shooting pool. The ice machine was a HUGE hit with the fishermen!This house was truly perfect for entertaining, and we couldn't have asked for a better place to stay. The directions were clear, check-out was super easy and convenient, and communication with the host was absolutely top-notch from start to finish.We had a wonderful experience and will definitely be repeat customers! Highly recommend this property!

This is our 3rd or 4th Vrbo stay and I've never been disappointed. The property was exactly as advertised. It was beautiful, clean and well taken care of. The host was fantastic with communication and the booking was seamless.I HIGHLY recommend both this property and Vrbo....and I am not someone who is easily impressed.

This waterfront home is absolutely gorgeous and my family could not help but take pictures of it when they arrived. The master suite...luxury; the balcony view of the water and palm trees...breathtaking; the memories to celebrate my 60...priceless. My nephews went crabbing and fishing everyday..Noone was stuck on a cell phone. Tonia was so responsive but there was only one inquiry because everything we needed was at the house. This was the most accommodating rental I've experienced and I have experienced many. It was worth every penny.

The home is amazing! You don’t need to bring a thing with you. The kitchen, completely full, I mean completely. The exterior is magnificent. Great sitting areas, upstairs and down . The added game room is a plus and the large ice making machine — WOW! There’s more room to park than you find at some stores. Our host, Tonia, super nice. Had to reach out to her for a couple of questions and she responded quickly and always sounded concerned. She made sure we were having a grand time.

Fantastic space for family reunion! We were able to gather together in the beautiful kitchen or downstairs patio. We were able to visit in quieter, smaller groups on porch or in game room. Everything was great including the communication with our host. I really can’t say enough about the beautiful home on the water, peaceful location, amazing sunrise & sunset views….I plan to meet with family there again next year!

Host profile image
Bill and I have been partners in a home renovating business for 10 years. We fell in love with this house from the first time we saw it so we decided to keep it and share it with others. It's been extensively renovated and is ready for you!

Why they chose this property

I love that this house has the most amazing porches where there's almost always a breeze. It sits on such a large lot that provides lots of privacy and space for everyone in your group. The steam shower in the master bathroom is amazing whether it's cold out or not. It's fun to sit on the porch and watch the boats going by all day long.

What makes this property unique

Lots of privacy and extra space for large groups to spread out. Even with large groups it never feels crowded.
