The perfect little weekend getaway house for our trip! The house was comfortable and gave us plenty of room. The location was nice and in a quiet neighborhood. We even watched a manatee and her calf swim by on the dock! Check in and check out process was easy and our host was very helpful explaining the area. We will be back again!

Loved our stay and Kevin was very accommodating! Its got the old FL feel and a wonderful screened in porch to make great memories on. Our beagles loved the yard and the chance to jump in the water. The beds were comfy and we had plenty of room inside on those rainy days.

Kevin was by far the BEST host we have ever experienced when traveling. Not to mention how knowledgeable he is of the area. Anything you may ask he has an answer to even navigating the waterways.The house is Perfect for a quiet weekend getaway with all the amenities. Your a short drive or paddle from wherever you want to go. Next time we will definately bring a fishing pole. There were so many fish around the dock. We will be back. Thanks again Kevin

Great Family Getaway Location

The canal front property is great! It's conveniently located to the river and state park. We were able to launch the kayaks from the property's own boat ramp. We had everything we needed for a fun family getaway.
