Private and restful.

Absolutely delightful. The home is well maintained and very comfortable from large screened in porch to bedrooms. Kitchen was well equipped and washer and dryer clean and new. It felt more like borrowing a friends home than a rental property. I would absolutely rent again. Donna & Bill.

Fisherman's paradise!

Stay here if you plan to fish around the area. Good owners and plenty of extra fishing pole and accessories for you to use. Just make sure to return them when you are done! We left a fishing pole back for the next renters and as a souvenir for the owners.

“The Keys “

Everything was Fantastic, I can’t say enough good things about the accommodations, location and especially the owners! The best way to sum up everything is I would give a rating of 11 out of 10 if that was an option!

Sunlit home with sunset views

What a wonderful vacation home in a quiet neighborhood! The area has a relaxing Old Florida feel. The house has an open floorplan filled with natural light and offers great water views. We saw manatees and a dolphin swim by! We enjoyed paddling about in the kayaks. We loved the large screened porch with fabulous sunset views. Even the upstairs shower is spacious and sunlit. The house is well stocked with all the basics, and the hosts provided so many thoughtful extras which made our stay even better. The hosts are fabulous and very responsive to any questions. We hope to return for another visit.

About the host

Hosted by Janet or Donald Miller

My husband and I are empty nesters with one grandchild and 2 French Bulldogs and this is our home away from home where we keep our boat and enjoy fishing, swimming and stone crab traps during season. We live about 35 minutes away in Sarasota.

This is our first time doing vacation rentals so we appreciate any feedback.

Why they chose this property

We believe others will also enjoy this quiet, comfortable house as we do. It's not fancy but we want others to relax and not worry about anything. We provide everything you should need for your stay and even some extras.
