About this property

Reel Paradise Waterfront home with direct access to Tampa Bay

Reel Paradise is located at the end of a quiet street and the home sits on the Little Manatee River and has direct access to Tampa Bay. The water is brackish, so it is a mix of fresh and saltwater, so it’s the perfect place to enjoy a swim or a paddle board adventure because there are no alligators just tons of fish, dolphin and manatees!
Wake up, pack your cooler, step foot on your boat or kayak and enjoy fishing Tampa Bay, Cockroach Bay Preserve, Beer Can Island, Egmont Key and many more. This area is well known to local anglers as Tampa Bay’s premier fishing spot.
You may choose to bring along your boat, kayak or paddle board. We have two adult kayaks, paddles and live jackets on property for guest use. ***owners accept no responsibility for use of kayaks and guests use at their own risk**** Guest will be responsible for loss or damage of kayaks.
Boat docking is available on property using mooring whips provided by owners. Trailer parking is available on the street.
Launch your boat at Common Good Park Boat Ramp, which is just a mile from Reel Paradise.
After a fun day on the water, enjoy grilling your catch of the day and relaxing by the fire pit or private hot tub all located on the waterfront property. Owners provide propane for gas grill and grilling utensils.
Guests are responsible for purchasing their own wood for fire pit and charcoal for charcoal grill.

Little Harbor Beach Resort and Bahia Beach is located a mile from Reel Paradise where you may enjoy two top notch bars and restaurants while enjoying the best sunset spot in Tampa Bay. Enjoy the public beach there as well.

About the host

Hosted by Andrea A Denhart

Host profile image
Hello! We are Andrea and Karl Denhart. We have a little boy and a chocolate lab. We love fishing, swimming, walking, bike riding, yoga, gardening and cooking. We are so excited to have you say at Reel Paradise. It was home for us for several years. We love the space and love everything about life on the river. We still scream with excitement when we see dolphin, manatee or fish jump out of the water. We live next door now, so while we will not bother you during your time here, we are accessible should you need anything. We look forward to meeting you!
