Our stay at this beautiful home was just what the Dr. ordered. The beds and pillows were very comfortable, the house was super clean, the pool water was heated to the perfect temperature & there was plenty of towels for both showers and the pool. We truly did not want to leave. I’m sure with my Mom recently moving to this area, we will be renting this beautiful home quite again. Thank you for having us!!
My family is spread out all along the east coast and chose this lovely spot to celebrate Thanksgiving together. The home was spacious enough for the madness of cooking a meal for the 8 of us staying at the property, plus 2 more dinner guests - with space for relaxing and hanging out together both inside and outdoors.
This was the perfect rental for the holiday week. I was able to make my families favorite holiday food because the kitchen was fully stocked with every pot, pan and cooking utensils that I needed. Very comfy fluffy chairs were often fought over and we built puzzles on the ping pong table. Easy access to the outside to watch the boats go by.
This house is amazing! So clean and spacious. The location is also great. We enjoyed kayaking on the canals and rented a pontoon boat and were able to use the dock. The kitchen also had everything we needed (the outdoor kitchen is amazing) It is a quiet spot on the cup de sac. The owners were very responsive and helpful as well. We would definitely stay here again!!
We all had such a good time...there was something to do for everyone from fishing to kayaking to paddleboarding to swimming we cant wait to do it again!!
We had the most relaxing enjoyable time. The host was so easy to talk with and everything we needed was provided. The kayaks were a huge hit with the kids and the pool was great for hanging out and enjoying our time together. Highly recommended. Thank you
If you love fishing and relaxing by the pool this property is perfect for both. Several stores less than 10 minutes away. Host communicates well and helpful throughout the entire stay. Planning to return in October!
The house and pool were awesome for the time we spent in this home. Everything was nicely decorated and comfortable. Checkin was easy and the house had everything we needed for a stay away from home.
Place was in a good location. Great for people who have kids as pool is screened. The property has a fence around the water edge. Plenty of room inside home & great back porch.
The whole experience was wonderful. Quick communication, helpful information, and a beautiful home to spend time with family. I highly recommend this location.

Thank you so much Kayla! I'm so happy you had a nice time. Hope to host you again sometime :)
Our amily had a lovely stay during our ThanxMas gathering. We enjoyed the kayaks and saw several dolphins during our outings. The grills a wonderful feature, the couch was perfect for game watching, and the beds were the most comfortable of all the rentals we've stayed at in this area. The pool was in excellent condition, and the outdoor area was perfect for enjoying the lovely weather. We hope to return.
So easy to get to all the restaurants and sights. The pool was fantastic. The house well-appointed. My daughter and grandchildren found it very comfortable and homey. Nice view on the canal! Everything was great.... will definitely go back.

Thank you so much for the kind words, Lois! We hope to host you again in the future- keep in touch! :)
The home is perfect for a family of all ages. Heated pool, pier/dock for fishing, outdoor eating/bar space has a tv and overlooks the water which is where we mostly hung out and ate all our meals, spacious rooms, kitchen has everything you need, close to beaches and restaurants... The owner Jessica is extremely helpful and quick with answering any questions and even went out of her way to provide additional tv's in the bedrooms before we arrived! Overall great stay!

Thank you so much for the review, Jennifer! It was our pleasure to host you and your family. We would be honored to host you again in the future should you be out this way again! :)
The house was lovely and perfect for a family vacation. It's located on a canal that leads to the gulf. Fishing from the dock was fun and plentiful! We took the 4 kayaks out to the gulf and saw several dolphins. The beds were very comfortable and the kitchen was stocked with all of our cooking needs. We had a blast playing games that were provided in the game room. Everything was wonderful and enjoyable!
Our annual family vacation that everyone looks so forward towards. We had a great four days on the water, even though the water clarity wasn't great everyone had a great time. The house, pool and water access meant all of our needs.
This property was perfect for an unwinding and relaxing vacation! We just wanted to spend time together and slow the pace of life. The house provided the space to do just that! We did venture to a local beach one day, but the kids all requested we return to the house and they spent the rest of the day playing in the pool! We would definitely stay there again!
We stayed 8 nights and had a blast. Made extensive use of the pool (6’ deep end was great) fished everyday off the dock (mostly catfish, but also accidentally caught a turtle), kayaked out to sea, restaurants and bait shop within walking distance … what’s not to love. 3 king beds was a really nice extra as well.
We highly recommend the Silver Dolphin restaurant (2m drive), which had really good food and an awesome outside garden/seating area. We even had the luck of seeing a very large alligator casually swim up the creek behind the restaurant.
This house was great for 4 couples! We relaxed by the pool, cooking inside & out. The shed was well stocked with fishing supplies, making it easy to fish & watch wildlife from the dock. The kayaks were great for paddling to the gulf. Nice neighborhood for walking. Jessica made check in & out easy, responding quickly to our messages. Thanks for sharing your lovely home with us.

About the host
Hosted by Jessica Katz
Originally from Denver, CO- in FL for 6 years now! Moved to be closer to family, purchased a vacation home to enjoy together. Loved it so much, we decided to offer it for stays. Now, a few years later, it's been my honor to host families that have held engagements, honeymoons, staycations, and all sorts of other amazing family memories at our property. We have many repeat guests who have fallen in love with the property.
Why they chose this property
We love this neighborhood for access to the water, low key vibe and safety. It's a quiet little neighborhood with every convenience you can think of nearby.
What makes this property unique
I'm really excited to share our new ping pong table- we went on a cruise last summer and spent a majority of our time ping pong playing! Of course, the waterfront views, kayaking to the open Gulf of Mexico, fishing for hours. It's truly paradise, and we have taken care in selecting beautiful and functional decor, amenities, conveniences and FUN!
