The house is on an ocean access canal with private beautiful views of the canal, tons of mangrove trees and wildlife. Enjoy your favorite beverage on your private dock hanging over the canal.
We supplied the house with 2 tandem kayaks (Perception Tribes) paddles and life preservers.
You can kayak to the right and meander through the prestigious Colliers Reserve Golf Course with tons of wildlife including manatees, otters, herons, ducks, spoon bills, iguanas, and bald eagles! If you head left out of the main canal it’s about a 45 minute paddle to the ocean. You’ll see porpoise, manatees and pink spoon bills. Once you get to the pass you’ll be at the famous Bare Foot Beach and Wiggins State Park (voted # 1 beach in Florida)

Go shopping at The Waterside Shops, an open air mall located 4 miles from the house.

The sophisticated and delightful shops, the renowned fine restaurants, bistro’s, and courtyards all amidst the lush colorful cascading flowers and Green landscaping of historic downtown Naples.

We were 4 adults who stayed for a long weekend over 4th of July. The property is beautiful and conveniently located close to anything you need. We enjoyed using the kayaks, and sitting on the dock. We did try fishing but didn’t have any luck, the water is very shallow. We enjoyed a fire in the fire pit one evening and roasted some marshmallows. We all thought that the beds were comfortable and the rooms were spacious. We really enjoyed the shower pressure! Overall we had a fantastic time and would gladly stay here again!

Great outdoor space

We took a 10 minute drive to the beach in the mornings, explored the area in the afternoons. We enjoyed being in the back yard and on the dock and fires in the fire pit and were outside most of the time. We made most meals on the grill. All very private. Everything was clean and in order. Jody was prompt with any communication or questions we had. Would definitely stay there again!

Worth a return!

Let me preface this with, this was my favorite vacation I've been on in years. The house was perfectly adorable, the outside was so enjoyable, and Naples as a whole was wonderful. We went kayaking a couple of times off the dock in the backyard (highly recommend and we even saw dolphins one morning). We enjoyed coffee and dinner in the backyard, which is perhaps the best part of the house. The house is very open and clean, and the front yard features were beautiful. There are multiple clean and clear beaches to visit nearby (we drove), and Bonita Dog Beach was a must go for the pets! There was also a very helpful binder in the house with instructions, details and suggestions for the area. We missed it all before we even left!

Beautiful house in North Naples

We really enjoyed our stay at this house and we would come back when we visit the area again. The house was very clean, well-equipped and comfortable. We really liked the way the house was decorated. Also, it was nice being on the canal, a perfect place to sit and relax and watch the ducks.

Retreat

House was perfect: clean, well stocked and spacious. The master bed seemed brand new and very comfortable. Jodi and Bill have done a great job decorating all rooms. We enjoyed kayaking and the near by beaches. Old Naples was a short drive as were countless golf courses.

Beautiful and clean home

I cannot recommend this home enough. It is beautiful and clean and has everything you could want. The outdoor area is what sets this house apart from the others. There is a lovely outdoor area with a fire pit and hanging lights. The best part is the kayaks! We had so much fun taking them down the waterways. The internet speed is fantastic and you can tell the owners do not skimp on anything in order to make the guests comfortable.

Bill owns a pool service and repair company. I do permanent cosmetics. Michael is a paramedic/fireman and Gabrielle is in nursing school.
