Great home

We had a nice stay at Karen's property. All communications and logistics were easy. The home is large and clean and well-furnished. Grill is brand new. I particularly loved the sparkling pool and sitting out on the adirondack chairs by the canal. Very dog friendly with a fully fenced back yard. Working the TV's was kind of confusing, but it was really not a big deal.

Perfect house

This house was amazing! We had 10 people in our party and fit comfortable here. The host Karen was a god send. We stayed over Christmas break and she put up a tree and even gave gifts to all of the kids. She was very tentative to every detail. I will definitely be staying here again!

First family vacation

This property was perfect for a family of 10! 8 adults and 2 toddlers. Its has all the amenities you would need to enjoy indoor and outdoor fun. The pool area was great, with a lot of pool toys, bar, large table and waterfall. The patio doors open wide to extend the living space. We spent most of our time outdoors. The location was close to everything, restaurants, liquor store, groceries. Our hostess was very easy to communicate with and was always available for questions. She was amazing and even decorated for Christmas and left goodies for the kids to make it feel like Christmas. If I could give more than 5 stars, I would! Amazing place! Thank you for making it a wonderful experience and family vacation. Dont miss out on this place! Rent this one, you won’t be disappointed!!

Family Christmas Celebration

Amazing Christmas Vacation! After our first rental cancelled due to hurricane Ian damage. We rebooked with Karen, I can't say enough good things about her! She had exceptional communication with us while planning our trip and once we arrived! We walked into the house after a 48 hour adventure from Michigan in a blizzard/snow storm to a beautiful home decorated for Christmas 🎄we enjoyed a couple cold days snuggled on the large sectional couch with the fireplace going while watching TV and reading! Once the weather warmed up we moved outside! Started our morning with coffee outdoors and moved to the pool for the rest of the day. The home is full of all the amenities for little ones for example crib, pack n play and high chair! For the most part we prepared all our meals at the house! The kitchen is equipped with the perfect appliances and cooking tools! Poolside you will love the grill, bar and TV with a large table great for games! The open concept is perfect for hosting a family! Fenced in back yard for kids and dogs is also a plus!! We enjoyed taking the kayaks and bikes out! The dock provides an additional outdoor hangout for all to enjoy. I highly recommend this beautiful home! The owners take pride in hosting their guests😊

Summer Family Vacation!

Our family has used VRBO a lot over the last 6 years. I have never had a bad experience, but our experience with Karen was for sure the best one ever. She went above and beyond what is expected. She puts a lot of thought into making sure you feel welcomed and at home in her home. Her communication is great. The cleanliness of the home when we arrived was impressive. And all the included “conveniences” were more than we expected! The home has so many amenities, with the 4 kayaks, private swimming pool, fishing poles, and everything you need for the beach. The kitchen was fully stocked with everything we needed to cook 6 breakfast, and 3 dinners (and lunch) for 9 people. If you’re traveling with a baby she’s got you covered with a crib, high chair, stroller, and baby swing. The special touches like her having a whole welcoming package all set up for the family with snacks and starter breakfast waiting for us, which the kids juts LOVED!! Her heart goes into this and it shows. I have to say the pool deck its self is worth booking for. The activities are endless, it’s definitely been designed with “togetherness” in mind. So many things to do besides just swim! She's full of great suggestions on all things local. And always a text or call away if you need her. Promise you won’t be disappointed. If you’re looking for a place you can spend time with your family and not have to be driving around looking for things to spend money doing….Book now!! :)

Our property is 2,791sqft of upscale living at its finest! There are 4 bedrooms, 3 full baths and a sleeper sofa in the 2nd living room. Our open-concept, one-story living home makes it easily navigable for those with mobility issues. Our grand master suite with its spa like bathroom is a peaceful sanctuary. We have a massive dock where we love to watch the sunrises and sunsets. There is also a 20,000lb electric boat lift and our large canal has Gulf of Mexico access! Bring your boat or rent one from one of the many marinas in the area!
