The house has a great spot next to the dock to setup an outdoor party. Beautiful back end of Alligator Bay, only draw back is the boat ramp locations are hard to access and find. I would recommend this house as a great place to stay.
We wanted a quiet spot for biking, kayaking, and beach walks. This was just the spot. It was more house than we needed for the two of us, but it felt like home. Would definitely visit this property again!
We stayed here during a quick trip for our daughter’s engagement. The setting was perfect and made for great photos.
The house is older and has a stale air odor that didn’t seem to go away while we were there.
Overall good experience.
We rented Bandits Cove as a staycation with our family on a special weekend for us. It was perfect! House is beautiful and bigger than we thought. The views are amazing! So many outside activities for the kids- the pool table/ping pong room was a huge hit! If you fish, don't forget your poles. Caught some redfish right in the back yard! We will definitely be back!!
