The home is beautiful, the rooms are nicely decorated, my teenage daughter loved having a large bed and a bedroom all to herself. We had breakfast every morning on the porch overlooking the canal, it was so relaxing with the breeze, perfect to plan the day's activities. We bicycled up and down Ocean Blvd most mornings, from end to end, it seemed super safe to us, everyone was respectful of pedestrians and bicycles. The teenagers used the kayaks that came with the house and the paddle board we got for this vacation. The canals are a safe environment to let the kids enjoy the water independently. The owners were responsive to every inquiry my husband had regarding the location and operation of the laundry, the outdoor shower and even sent a handyman to tend to a malfunction of the dishwasher. The owners went out of their way to ensure we found their house's offerings were always in perfect order. We appreciated that high level of care. The location of this house is ideal for a variety of water sports, including fishing/crabbing from the house dock or fishing from the nearby spots just a few blocks away.
