Dave and Carolyn, This is just a note to thank you for the use of your wonderful condo. We enjoyed every minute of our stay here. The weather was perfect every day – just remarkable. We love the lake view and spent a lot of our time out on the lanai. The cross-ventilation when we had the front door and the sliding doors open was amazing. We never had the AC on the entire time. Thanks for installing the new micro wave oven – it works great.

Great place to stay

We really enjoyed our stay at Wild Pines in Bonita Bay. I especially liked the sliding glass windows on the lake side that would totally open the wall facing the lake. We slept soundly on a very comfy bed to the sound of insects and the breeze through the brushy vegetation. The kithchen had all the utensiles necessary to cook with, though we only did breakfasts. There is a Public's Grocery Store in the shopping center straight across RT 41 on the right from the main gate. The only thing I could see as an improvement would be a new microwave; it works but it is dated.

Holiday 2010/2011

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay over the holidays at Wild Pines in Bonita Bay. We appreciated the comfort and cleanliness of the unit and the close proximity to excellent tennis courts, pool and spa. The biking trails made for a great bike rides, and we took full advantage of the kayaking and canoeing. My son and I spent over three hours kayaking with a dolphin on Christmas Eve! Manatees were also seen. We spent nearly every day golfing for excellent twilight rates at a Troon course in Ave Marie (Panther run) and even played a couple of rounds in the evening at the par 61 lighted course at The Links of Naples. Excellent location to everything, safe and recommended rental. All appliances work as they should; well stocked kitchen.

Very convenient condo

The condo was very comfortable and well equipped with anything you could want. Since we were there with young children who hate riding in car seats, we much appreciated the fact that so much was within walking distance. You could walk to a shopping center and restaurants. The swimming pool is across the street. We walked to playgrounds with the children, and hopped on the shuttle to the beach. The only time we took the kids for a drive was to meet some friends at a beach and to go to the Naples Zoo. The fact that is was an upstairs condo was not a problem for us, but it might be for someone who is more senior than these two grandparents.

In a recent e-mail the Kaufmans said, "Thanks so much for sharing your perfect condo with us. The location is great and it is so comfortably furnished. We really appreciated all the equipment and necessities you provide. It was almost like staying with close friends or relatives. We enjoyed the pool and the bikes even though Mother Nature did not give us too much warmth. Would definitely stay with you again when we are in the area. Bonita Bay is a beautiful complex and so convenient to everything. Diane and Fred"
