This is a great rental! We had everything we needed and had a wonderful time! We are already talking about a return trip and would defintely stay here again!
Wonderful stay! Home was exactly as advertised. Very clean and kitchen was well stocked. Enjoyed fishing from the dock and saw manatees. Already booked vacation to return here next year. Can’t wait!
We have stayed here several times over the last 5 years. We always love coming back. The setting is so serene, with a great sunrise and sunset view! The house is very comfortable and is close enough in to several good restaurants.
The house was nicely modernized & well equipped. The host, Rick, was very responsive to all our questions. The weather was a bit cool to enjoy kayaks & the nice yard, but the house was pretty & very comfortable.
It was perfect for our family gathering. Host was very responsive to any question. The house was well equipped, comfortable rooms and furniture and the yard was just lovely. Would definitely rent again and highly recommend.
This is the second time we have stayed at this location and genuinely enjoys this property. The process from check in to check out was easy and straightforward. We will be back next year.
My family and i rented this home for a week vacation, they home was very accommodating and everyone felt right at home during the stay. If you love wild life a morning cup of coffee with the various birds and the occasional dolphin or manetee(s) in the canal then we highly recommend staying in this gorgeous home. We will definitely be back for another stay!
Best Time Ever the house was super quiet next to the canal my grandkids learn how to kayak for the first time it came with kayaks included in the rental of the house I would definitely rent again house was super spotless even the neighbors across the street or real friendly
Had an awesome time kayaking and fishing, quiet neighborhood, the house is clean and well maintained.

About the host
Hosted by Rick Silva
Wife and I moved from the cold New England weather in 1988 and headed to Tampa Florida where we now call Home.
Why they chose this property
We where looking for a property on the water and came across this property which we fell in love with. It sits on a quiet Corner canal with spectacular water views and wildlife.
What makes this property unique
Wife and I love to sit in the front yard watch the sun rise, look out to Cow Creek bay and appreciate all the Wildlife, specially when the Dolphins come in to the bay to feed. On sunny days we like to kayak on the calm waters of Hudson and enjoy the Nature around us. We also enjoy fishing right out from the sea Wall. The kids love the place which makes this home so special to us.
