Bit of Heaven
Nice property. Water pressure was very low in Master shower. Master bathroom is tight for 2 adults. Loved the outdoor grilling area. Pool is small. Be tile around pool is very slippery when it got wet. It was a good location to rent a golf cart for local cruising!!
We booked the home for a family vacation near our in-laws. The canal access made it easy for them to pick us up in the boat. The kids enjoyed fishing off the dock and swimming in the pool. The outdoor kitchen and dinning space was clean and comfortable. We enjoyed quiet mornings in the backyard space. The house was immaculate. The kitchen was fully stocked with all we needed. The open dinning and living area was spacious and comfortable. The bedrooms were a perfect set up for our family of five. Communication with the host was easy and friendly. We would definitely book this home again!
