About this property

LEMON BAY HIDEAWAY - Gorgeous 3/2 with Boat Dock on Lemon Bay!

Lemon Bay Hideaway is a 3/2 single-family home with a spectacular view of Lemon Bay in Englewood, Florida. Here you will discover some of the best fishing our country has to offer. The pass to the Gulf of America is only a 5 minute boat ride, accessible right from the boat dock, just steps from the backdoor. Beautiful beaches are only a 5 minute car ride, or a 3 minute boat ride, whichever you prefer! The quaint little town also offers golfing, water sports, boutique shops, fine dining, and more. Our home sits on Lemon Bay and has all you need for both an exciting and relaxing vacation. The views are stunning with dolphins and manatees swimming the waters just steps from the poolside deck. The boat dock is conveniently available for your boat, should you bring one or rent one from one of the many marina's in the area. There is one lift available for your use that will lift a 7,000 lb boat (or less). The lift is NOT set up for a pontoon. There is plenty of parking for your trucks and boat trailer, and plenty of beds. The home sleeps 8 people comfortably (2 kings, 1 queen sleeper, 2 twins).

The lanai on the water is superb

The house is very nice but the lanai on the water makes the property wonderful! The kitchen is well supplied and there is a good supply of towels. Although we did not use them, there are beach chairs and beach towels. There were a good number of very fine restaurants in the area.

Best vacation home!

My family and I stayed for a week. The house is perfect! It has great energy and is very comfortable! Paula has done an amazing job with the decor and has everything you need at the house! The dock was great for fishing and my friends brought their boat. The location on Lemon Bay couldn’t have been better!!! The pool was perfect to cool off after a day in the sun! Paula went above and beyond to make our stay enjoyable and she was gracious to let my friends keep their boat there when they had a problem with their trailer! I will definitely book again!

Great Vacation

This is a very nice house located right on the inter-coastal. The pool is awesome, grounds are nice and the rear porch, dock area are excellent. Wasn't real happy to pay the extra fee for the use of the boat lift but after the owner explained that the house sits on the inter-coastal which is a non no-wake zone and large waves constantly hit the dock, it was worth it. Our week long family vacation was made with this property. A boat is a must due to only being less than five minutes from Stump Pass and the beautiful water and sandbar. We will definitely be back.

Lemon Bay Perfection

I cannot say enough great things about this property and the host. The home and the property were absolutely perfect...comfortable and we felt at home there. The pool was beautiful and just the right temperature. Even though we were on the "west" coast, we were able to have breakfast each morning on the screen porch and watch the sunrise. At times we were greeted by dolphin, herons and egrets. It was a super peaceful vacation. Paula was always available if anything was needed or I had any questions. She was a joy to work with. We will definitely be returning to this property for a future vacation.

Great place w/every amenity

Great house that thought of almost everything. It would have been nice to have the pool heated upon arrival as we lost 1-1/2 days of pool time. Also, had to run BACK to store for toilet paper or we would have run out in middle of the night. Listing says Hot Tub, there is no hot tub….unless they are considering the bath tub. They have sand chairs, toys, zero gravity chairs, cooler, beach towels, & more. Good location close to Publix & 5-8 mins to the beach. Waking distance to a few restaurants. Will be back!

Delightful stay! Home has it all. Views, pool, dock and high end finish.

We loved our stay in Paula’s updated and well maintained home. The expansive views are spectacular. I loved all the screened in outdoor space. The pool is large and well oriented. Beds were comfortable and home is well appointed. Paula went above and beyond to make our stay special with prompt communication and thoughtful recommendations. Our three kids loved fishing off the pier. We rented a boat for the week and found it incredibly easy to park it at the home on the power lift. There is an abundance of nearby beaches and beautiful shoreline to explore. Cooking at home is a breeze as Paula has considered all the supplies you will need. Every day was wonderful. We will be back!

Great location for beaching and fishing

Convenient to the boat ramp & plenty of parking at the home. I like the proximity to Gasparilla Island. There is a $6 toll but at the tip of the island, I rented a bike and then parked on one of the side streets (free) and went to the beach. It’s about a 20 min drive vs.10 min to the closest beach but it’s a picturesque little town with a lot of history. You can also rent golf carts there. I went to Gasparilla Adventures for my rentals. They were awesome to work with. We ate at Landy’s and it was great. Good food, great service. Publix is super close and Walmart is also close. The boathouse at the home is exceptional. Used the grill twice and it worked great. Had plenty of beach apparatus including umbrellas.

Perfect Getaway is Lemonbay Hideaway!

The Thompson’s are one of my top 5 best hosts to date and that’s saying a lot because I’ve been using VRBO since 2009! As Floridians we do a lot of “statecations” often to the Florida Keys so we have seen our fair share of Vacation Rentals this is the cleanest most well stocked one yet! This immaculate property with it’s coastal decor, screened in Lanai/pool private dock on Lemon Bay was a dream come true. The ocean breezes and zero noise makes you feel like you’re in your very own island paradise. The owners have thought of everything, the property was fully stocked with all the essentials better than any four star hotel I have ever been to. Having access to the a garage with all the fishing poles, washer, dryer and life jackets for the Kayaks. And btw the Kayak station is built into the dock for easy launch and retrieval! My wife and I were in town for a not so happy event the spreading of a family member’s ashes. However, staying at this home helped us to unwind and get a very much needed respite from the stressors of daily life. Trust me look no further you will not find a more beautiful, safe, cleaner and picturesque vacation home that can beat this Lemonbay Hideaway!

Why they chose this property

This home is located on the widest canal in the neighborhood and is only 1 house from the corner. The view is stunning! You are literally about a 5 minute boat road from the pass to the Gulf. You can even kayak there!

What makes this property unique

This home has a wonderful boathouse. It is so convenient to walk out your back door and get in your boat, and not have to hook it up every time you want to go boating and drive down to the park to put it in the water. This is a great benefit for fishermen and fisherwomen and those who just like to cruise the waters.
