Owner's Profile
Year Purchased: 2005
Why the Owner Chose Crows Nest
I've been coming to Marco Island since the early 1990s when my mom would come down for the winter. We loved the laid back flavor of Marco and since we both grew up in the midwest we appreciate the fact that a lot of midwesterners have settled in Marco. When the kids were all finished with college we were considering buying a place in Marco. On the last day of our March 2005 visit, we had planned to play golf but it rained. We did some window shopping in town and saw an ad in a real estate office for Crow's Nest, which is next door to my mom's place at Vantage Point. We looked at it, fell in love, and the rest is history! We returned home, made an offer, and two months later were Marco Island owners!
The Unique Benefits of this Condominium
We love the location on the south end of Marco Island away from the business area of town. We can walk to the beach and the Caxambas Pass marina. We have a boat dock and enjoy fishing and crabbing off the dock. Crow's Nest is small enough that we know the other owners, although we only get down there mostly in the off season. The condo is comfortable and we enjoy sitting on the lanai having breakfast and reading the paper. We plan to retire to Marco in a few years but in the meantime we are happy to share Casa Paradiso with others!
