Lovely Time

We really enjoyed our stay. We used the kayaks and paddled all around the area. The bird watching, fishing and sunsets were top-notch. The neighborhood was quiet and house was clean. I worried about my sisters who are very particular about firm beds but they had no complaints. All in all, it was a lovely stay at Ozello!

Why they chose this property

We fell in love with Ozello more than 20 years ago for the peace and respite of the "Old Florida" feel and friendly neighbors. Of course the fishing and water just calls out to refresh our minds.

What makes this property unique

We have loved the outdoor screened porch without no see-ums and relaxing with family and friends by the fire. The water view and nature only adds to this perfect picture of relaxation.
