Owner's Profile
Owner Description
Year Purchased: 2009
We are Ron and Helen Glick. Ron is a semi-retired college professor and I am a retired mental health clinician. We have two adult, married daughters and four grandchildren. Our primary home is in Chicago. Our older daughter and her family are in New Orleans while our younger and her family are in Baltimore. We have been going to the islands of Southwest Florida for many years, first as vacation renters and then as owners of a condo on Sanibel Island which we recently sold. We also had that condo in a rental program, so we are experienced owners of vacation rental property who have a good feel for what renters need. We bought the house in February of 2009, and have had two wonderful vacations there with our children/grandchildren.
Why the Owner Chose North Captiva Island
Because our family is far-flung, we were looking for a larger home and a place where we could have special times together. Did we ever find it! North Captiva is an absolutely beautiful island. There is no bridge, so you leave your car at the marina in Bokeelia and take the Island Girl ferry. From the momemt you arrive, you are in a world without cars and pollution. Golf carts bikes and kayaks are the means of transportation Stress falls away as you walk the pristine beaches, watch gorgeous sunsets and see the stars as never before.
The Unique Benefits of this House
Our adult daughters, both of whom have high stress jobs (one is a pediatrian and the other is a television news reporter) and young children report that time on the island is a restorer and stress reducer like no other. Our grandchildren talk about coming back from the minute they leave. Everyone agrees that this is a very special house on a very special island!
