Heated Pool + Fenced Yard + Dog-Friendly Cape Coral Retreat
Heated pool, fenced yard, and room for everyone — your Cape Coral home base for fall.
Soak up Florida sunshine (or evening stars) in your own screened-in, heated pool and hot tub — warm and ready to use well past summer. This 4-bedroom, 2-bath home sleeps 9 in comfort, with a king en-suite (walk-in shower + Jacuzzi tub), a fully fenced backyard for your dog, and a dedicated workspace if you're mixing a little work with your getaway.
Why guests love it:
Private heated pool & lanai, surrounded by palms — usable year-round, not just summer Fully fenced yard — pets welcome, no worrying about them slipping out Fully equipped kitchen with stainless appliances and a breakfast bar Smart TVs and fast Wi-Fi in every room Garage game room for rainy-day fun Quiet Pelican neighborhood, minutes to Cape Coral's canals, dining, and shopping
The space: Open-concept living flows out to the lanai and pool — the heart of the house. Four bedrooms give everyone their own space: the king suite with private bath, a queen room, a double room, and a bunk/twin room that's a hit with kids. Bright coastal décor throughout, fresh linens, and everything clearly labeled and well-stocked (guests mention this a lot in reviews).
This fall in Cape Coral: You're close to the Cape Coral Coconut Festival (Nov 10–13), the Fueled by Fire 5K, and fall festivals happening through October — plus a short drive to Fort Myers Beach, Sanibel Island, and Manatee Park for kayaking with manatees.
Perfect for: families, multi-generational trips, remote workers wanting sun after hours, and anyone traveling with a dog who doesn't want to compromise on comfort.

Everything was clean and the hosts were very accommodating with the checking and out. The kids loved the pool and were in it constantly. The hot tub was very relaxing
Our family had an awesome stay. Was in a safe neighborhood and very close to beaches. We would definitely stay again. I have rented in Cape Coral before and everything went as expected. We were very pleased.
This place was very nice I liked everything about it the only thing we had to buy was food to cook . So we did not have to bring essentials. Thank you and we will be back
Wonderful home away from home with everything you may need. We especially enjoyed the heated pool and jacuzzi. Our host was welcoming and very responsive.

It was a pleasure hosting you! We’re so happy to hear you felt at home and enjoyed the heated pool and jacuzzi. You were wonderful guests, great communication, respectful of the home, and easy to host. We truly appreciate your kind words and would be happy to welcome you back anytime. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
We had a very relaxing stay. We loved sitting in the hot tub at night and in the pool during the day. Also like that we were close th a grocery store and Target. Beds we so comfortable we all slept great. Christian was very responsive to any questions. Great time!!
The house was nice and as described and in a great location. We enjoyed the pool and hot tub and we’re very happy with the responsiveness of the host on a couple of minor issues.Overall, it was excellent.

Thank you so much for the wonderful review! We’re thrilled you enjoyed the pool, hot tub, and the location. It was a pleasure hosting you, and we’re glad we could address any questions quickly. We hope to welcome you back again soon!
This was the perfect house for us! We took our 2 dogs with us and the yard was absolutely perfect for them including a doggie door available off the lanai. The pool was clean and the pool heater actually worked…this is a big win for us. Great location, close to so many shops/restaurants/parks. The house itself was very well maintained and all appliances and amenities worked perfectly. Well stocked. Thank you for a great couple of weeks in your home!!
We enjoyed our stay here! Everything was as pictured. Beautiful home, pool and quiet neighborhood! Owners were very responsive to any questions we had. Would definitely stay here again!
This place was perfect for our family! There was plenty of space to cook for everybody and the heated pool/spa was just what we needed for relaxing. Close enough to go to the beach a couple hours but just far enough away to be peaceful. Loved the outdoor covered space!
Great location with families, plenty of kids stuff to day. Pool is great if you’re going during Jan and Feb since the water is a bit chilly and the pool is heated, plenty of room for a group of 10 people here. Will stay again if coming to the area!
The house was great! Perfect communication, very clean, very well supplied. Plenty of blankets, pillows, towels... I appreciate the added cleaning supplies, dishwasher and laundry pods, and trash bags. Not all VRBO homes do this which I never understand. Having the trash bags and cleaning supplies, we were able to keep the home clean and kept up. They even have a small vacuum that was appreciated. The pool and spa were fantastic and we all loved being able to swim every day. Highly recommend.

Thank you so much for this wonderful review! We’re thrilled you enjoyed your stay and appreciated all the little touches we provide. We believe having those essentials on hand helps our guests feel at home and enjoy their vacation without worry. We’re especially happy the pool and spa were a hit! It was a pleasure hosting you, and we’d love to welcome you back anytime.
This home matched our needs so well. Fully stocked with toiletries and beach needs. The pool area is enough to keep you happy though the weekend with toys and plenty of lounge space. The grill was a great feature we didnt use but its there. The beds were all comfortable and the spaces inviting. Would 10/10 recommend and will be coming back soon.
The property was clean and well cared for. We enjoyed the pool and the outdoor space. Tonnie and her husband responded to our questions promptly! The tablet to adjust the pool and hot tub can be a little confusing but that can be easily fixed by updating the instruction sheet. We would definitely stay again!
We had a great time at this very spacious and comfortable home. Everything we needed was at the property including beach towels and pool toys. We specially want to give a shout out to the property manager, Tonnie. She was very welcoming and explained everything well. She went beyond by letting us know that we had left some clothes behind in the dryer and quickly sent them to us in a package. We would recommend this property for a relaxing and fun time.
This house was a spectacular find and including the hosts! The hosts were quick to answer questions which I really appreciated.
All the amenities you need including plenty of towels and beach type of items! Very spacious and modern with plenty of room to spread out including a game room in the garage. Yes, there is a school and a little traffic during that time although a very quit neighborhood feel. We spent majority of the time outside in the pool. The outdoor patio is perfect especially to watch TV while swimming! The kids absolutely loved this house too. 25 minutes from RSW and Fort Myers Beach. 40 minutes to Sanibel and 1 hour to Captiva! Perfect location for all you want to do in the area. A must rent property!

About the host
Hosted by Christian & Jennifer Wernau
Hi, we're Jennifer and Christian! We vacationed in Cape Coral for many years before finally buying a home here to share with others. We started hosting because we believe families should have a true home away from home to make their vacation dreams a reality. That's why Silver Palms is a pet-friendly, single-family home with all the amenities you'd expect for a real home base — spacious accommodations, entertainment options, and thoughtful little touches throughout. We love hearing about our guests' experiences and new finds — it's always fun when something a guest discovers gets passed along to future guests. Our goal is simple: make your stay so comfortable and easy that Silver Palms becomes your go-to Cape Coral getaway, year after year.
Why they chose this property
We chose the Pelican neighborhood because it's close to shopping and downtown Cape Coral, while still being quiet, safe, and secure — the best of both worlds.

Imagine waking up to calm-water sunrises or taking a leisurely stroll along the canals before the day heats up. You're close enough to dining, shopping, and entertainment that you never feel far from anything — just far enough from the tourist bustle to actually relax. Whether you're a nature lover, a family looking for a quiet home base, or just craving a slower pace, the Pelican area delivers it.
