We had a great time during our stay here over Thanksgiving! The property was very comfortable and cozy for our family including our young grandkids! The owners responded quickly to us when we had questions.

Thanks Betsy! We would love to host you and your family again anytime you are in the area!!
It was great! The patio area was by far our favorite! It was a busy weekend for us so we didn't get to enjoy the hot tub, but our boys did! The beds were super comfy! We can't wait to come back!
We really enjoyed our stay here while visiting family. The property managers provided prompt and excellent communication before, during, and after our stay. The home was perfect for our family and dog and the outdoor pavilion was well furnished to enjoy the evenings. We will definitely stay here again!
We appreciated such a nice home being pet friendly. It was just my husband and I, but there was so much to do on this property with a family. We enjoyed how close we were by boat to Pine Island. Plenty of parking for a boat and trailer, and a marina just a couple of mins away. The hosts were very responsive and the easiest instructions I’ve seen so far.
Our family stayed here for Memorial Day Weekend and it was perfect. Plenty of room for all of us and the home was so clean. Hosts left us sweet notes upon arrival and even popsicles in the freezer. We felt so fortunate to find such an ideal rental for our stay. Hope to spend time here again next year.
We had a family reunion in the same gated area, it was very convenient and secure. Hot tub among the trees was really special! Good amenities. Kids loved the bunk beds! Spacious

Thanks Terri! Please reach out if you need a place to stay again, we would love to host you!!
We do an annual family vacation with our kids and this was our first time at this property. The owners were very courteous and kept in touch if we needed anything. Its a two story house with lots of room for a family of 6. The boys enjoyed fishing and the girls played in the lake and had many soaks in the hot tub. The property had games that we played and a fure.pit for s'mores. We made wonderful memories and really enjoyed our stay. Thank you again for everything, we would definitely come back.
This was a family trip. My daughter and 3 grandkids (13,9, and 7) joined me. I am a young 72. Lol
This marvelous property and hosts are a breath of fresh air. No hassles, confusion about anything. All questions and assistance readily supplied. Just message the host.
The home is beautiful and everything needed awaits you. Pine trees surround you. You exit the home to a deck w table and chairs. You exit the deck and to your left is a phenomenal hot tub.❤️
Straight ahead is an outdoor theater with a tv, couches, chairs, tall heater, barbecues and fire pit.
What else could you possibly want?
You have quick access to the lake and plenty of parks. Lake Livingston is beautiful.
We cooked out on the barbecues, steaks, chicken kabobs and hamburgers. Delicious!
Smores for the fire pit. Yummy😀
We fished off the shore and my 7 year old granddaughter caught a keeper without a bobber. Other fish were caught but we did catch and release.
We took my dad’s refurbished 1957 wooden boat
out on Lake Livingston. That’s the first time my dad’s boat has been in the water since 1977. I am sure he was smiling down on us. We went horseback riding. That was fun. The entire trip was just wonderful! Do yourself a favor, don’t stop and pass go, don’t collect your $200, reserve your space now as I have no doubt, it will fill up quickly. You won’t regret it. ❤️
This was by far the most welcoming Vrbo we have stayed at. Everything you could need for a stay was thought of. The hot tub was super clean and hot. The outdoor area is very nice and relaxing. The hosts were very polite and accommodating. I would definitely stay here again and definitely recommend.

Why they chose this property
We chose to purchase property in Cape Royale because of its natural beauty. It is a secure, quiet community with lots to do on the lake and the surrounding areas. The wildlife is wonderful to watch from your front door or back porch!
