We stayed here as a family of 5. The setup was perfect.! My parents keep their boat 8 minutes away that’s why we picked this place. The home was SO clean, the bedding was very nice and the kitchen had everything you needed. We grilled out and really enjoyed the outdoor space just watch out for the noseeum bugs. We couldn’t find the grilling utensils and after a day of boating we came back to a brand new set. Overall great stay Thank you!
Host response
Thank you so much for this wonderful 5-star review! We're so glad the setup worked perfectly for your family of five and that the location was ideal with your parents' boat just 8 minutes away — that's exactly the kind of convenience we love to hear about!
We're thrilled the home, bedding and kitchen all hit the mark, and so glad you enjoyed grilling out in the outdoor space. We're sorry the grilling utensils weren't where they should have been on arrival — we're glad we were able to get a brand new set sorted for you quickly!

Review from Andrea Pumphrey
My family and I had a great time in this home. It is as described. It had everything we needed for the long weekend. We had all of the kitchen utensils to make dinner every night. We brought our boat with us and it was great just being able to jump on and be minutes away from the Gulf and perfect sandbars. We spent time in Venice, Stump pass and Boca Grande. We enjoyed being able to jump into the pool after a long day out on the boat. They have kayaks available which we did not use. Comfortable beds and everything was clean. The only downside was there were a lot of sugar ants but it did not bother us too much. Overall we had an amazing stay! We would book this place again.

Thank you for the amazing review! Boat trips to Stump Pass, Boca Grande and the Gulf sandbars then jumping in the pool — that's the perfect Gulf Coast long weekend! ????????
So glad everything was clean, comfortable and as described. We've noted the sugar ants and will make sure the property is treated — Florida's warm climate makes them a common visitor but we'll get that sorted!
We'd love to welcome your family back anytime — the kayaks will be ready and waiting! ????

We had a wonderful stay at this rental! This home was very clean and beautifully decorated with a relaxing coastal vibe that immediately made us feel on vacation. There was plenty of space for everyone to spread out and be comfortable. The split bedroom layout provides privacy. The pool and outdoor area was fantastic, perfect for enjoying the Florida weather. The property was well-maintained and had everything we needed for our stay. We would definitely stay here again and recommend this property to others.

The property was the best rental we have experienced. We felt right at home, has everything you would need inside. Had to grab two lounge chairs from Walmart for the pool. Not a big deal. We enjoyed every minute there. Farlow’s, Landy’s and the Hideaway were excellent restaurants. We will stay again on our next visit to the area.
Host response
Thank you so much for your kind review! We’re thrilled to hear this was the best rental experience you’ve had and that the home made you feel right at home. It’s great to know the property had everything you needed for a comfortable stay and that you were able to enjoy your time by the pool.
We also appreciate your understanding regarding the lounge chairs and are glad it didn’t take away from your experience. It sounds like you made the most of your visit—those local restaurants are definitely favorites in the area!
We look forward to welcoming you back on your next trip!

Review from Sarah Binckley
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The decor and old Florida vibe was elegant yet simple. Furnishings, linens, and kitchen supplies were all high quality. The neighborhood is quiet and peaceful. A perfect place to relax by the pool and on the porch. We visited several beaches, parks, and restaurants. Our favorite outings were kayaking at Don Pedro State Park and a fishing charter out of Placida. We were disappointed that there was no safe way to launch the kayaks from the bulkhead, and we did not have a vehicle big enough to carry them around, so they were unusable.
Host response
Thank you so much for your detailed and kind review! We’re delighted you enjoyed the décor, peaceful “Old Florida” charm, and the quality of the furnishings and amenities. It sounds like you made the most of the area—kayaking at Don Pedro State Park and your fishing charter out of Placida both sound like wonderful experiences!
We do appreciate your feedback regarding the kayak launch. We understand how disappointing that must have been, and we have passed this information along to the owner for their review as we continue looking for ways to improve the experience for future guests.
It was a pleasure hosting you, and we truly hope to welcome you back again for another relaxing stay!
