Very nice - and comfortable - condo. Perfect location - near many of the things we wanted. Great pool, storage, amenities, and just what we wanted for a month-long stay. Highly recommended!
The condo was cozy and comfortable. The lanai overlooking the lake—a perfect spot for morning coffee. We loved being close to the Legacy Bike Trail, biking to the trail directly from the condo.
Connie was quick to respond to any of my questions.
My husband and I were here for a month right after hurricane Ian, so that he could work as an insurance adjuster. This condo provided all we needed: full kitchen, lovely back lania overlooking the lake, washer/dryer, dining room that was his office space, car port, and storage closet that stored our bicycles. Location was nice with park across the street (pickleball), historic Venice, and nearby legacy bike trail.
Connie was very responsive and always kind! We would definitely recommend this condo to anyone wanting a nice get away in Venice. We hope our travels in the future will bring us back.
Great location, close to beaches, stores, restaurants
The condo complex is very quiet, residents are friendly, nice pool.
Connie is a excellent host and very accommodating.
Close to beaches and restaurants,
The place itself is in dire need of upgrading, floors, bathrooms, kitchen, furniture needs attention.
The location was the best feature of the property for us. We were able to bike all around the area, and the park across the street had many recreational opportunities.
Our stay was wonderful. The condo was beautiful. Everything we needed was provided for us. The community has a great pool.

Wa well maintained condo in attractive surroundings convenient to all Venice attractions
Spent a quiet month in Jan, 16 in this well maintained condo in an off island area of Venice convenient to Publix, the YMCA, historic downtown Venice and its beautiful beaches. Everything that is needed to set up housekeeping is already there. The owner quickly replaced a defective refrigerator with a new, stainless, French door LG. The sunsets over the lagoon with its own gator were memorable. Would not hesitate to return to this lovely condo in Venice.

A Welcome Change
Immaculate, comfortable condo close to great restaurants, beaches and shopping. Owners are very conscientious and care about their property. Beautiful lanai where you can observe wildlife. Very well maintained property with a front and back lanai so you can have a nice cross breeze. Highly recommend!

The owner was excellent to work with, answering any questions and uncertainties that we had. The location was great and central to everything we wanted to do while in the Venice area. The condo was very clean and met all our needs. My wife loved looking out at the pond! We plan to go back again next March.

Condo rented in 2012 Season---Jan and Feb
We rented this condo for the 2012 season of two months and enjoyed it very much. In fact, we are planning to rent it again for next year. The condo is very clean and comfortable. The lani is glass enclosed which permits you to use it as another room. All the amenities and internet are very usable and up to date. The condo is close to the community pool which is heated. All the people around are friendly and you are close to shopping and about two miles to the beach. Highly recommended if you desire the Venice area.
