Perfection

What a great house and beautiful setting! This place was a comfortable fit for my 3 night stay in the area. The house itself was fantastic, but the screened-in porch, pool area and water views made the whole house choice so much more enjoyable and peaceful. You can’t go wrong staying here with its equipped kitchen — but there are also nice spots to eat close by if you’d rather go out. I would definitely stay here again!!!!

Prefect family getaway

Hosts were great at communication start to finish. If I had any trouble their previously sent email and text messages helped me get through it. House was clean. Big kitchen with pots, pans and seasonings. Pool was clean (some leaves and bugs fell in but no fault to host). Screened outdoor patio and sunset views were great ! Access to wheel wagon, beach chairs, umbrella, kids sand toys, and a cooler. Thank you for hosting !

Wonderful location and beautiful property!

We really enjoyed our week long stay. The private pool and spa were used daily. The dock overlooking the lake was a nice peaceful place to take in the sunsets. We were able to take a day trip to Sanibel and Captiva islands and made multiple visits to the Southwest Florida Eagle Cam location. I would highly recommend staying at this wonderful property with its excellent location!

Awesome Sunsets

This property was a great find and we would definitely stay here again. Awesome lake views and beautiful sunsets. The saltwater pool and hot tub were wonderful and the water temperature was a perfect 88 degrees. The house was super clean and had everything you needed in a great kitchen. I fished from the dock some every day and caught several bass. The owner, Stu, was very responsive and helpful with the few questions we had during our visit.

Our family of 5 enjoyed our stay here. The boys did not catch any fish, but had fun trying. The pool and hot tub were great. We traveled to several beaches nearby. The beach towels, umbrella, chairs and cooler were great to have available. Communication with the host was good. Check in and out were seamless.

Great location and amenities.

Great experience. My wife and I have been renting VRBO homes both internationally and domestic for many years. This home is ranked very high with us. Very clean, easy instructions and well equipped. The screened in area in back towards the water was so relaxing. The pool and spa were the perfect temperature. We would recommend this home to our friends.

Stu and Cathy have been married since 1980, parents of 4 children, 8 total children in-love and Grandparents of 12, we rehab, own and manage 9 Vacation Rental Homes. 8 of which are in Cape Coral Fl. If you or your family need additional houses, please ask us. We have developed our own style and unique decor, amenities and top notch customer service. We are the owners, designers, and customer service.

Why they chose this property

We fell in love with this property for several reasons. The Lake View is amazing, the sunsets are stunning, but the setting is undeniably unique. Sitting on the Patio at night watching the Eagles swoop down to pick fish out of the water, the birds and wildlife across the lake.. amazing. The heated pool, The Spa, the decor it all leads to a unique private resort eco-experience. The Game Room will be up and operational by late Fall 2022. We supply Kayaks, Fishing Gear, Life Jackets, games, bikes, books, and a garage/game room and Smart TV's in every room. The bedrooms are separated with the Master on one side, and the two guest rooms on the other side. All bathrooms have been completely updated with new tiles, vanities, tubs. The Kitchen is all new, smart blue and white cabinets with quartz counter tops. Appliances are all new. The window seat overlooking the lake will make you want to curl up with a book. We have board games, a port a crib, booster seats and toys for the little ones. There is something for everyone here at Mermaid Cove.

What makes this property unique

Cathy has a unique style of decorating all of our properties. Each one is unique but has a mix of home, beach get away, found items, new items. We are also clean freaks, your stay will amaze you and keep you coming back. You deal directly with us, the owners, not a customer service person or a bot.
