Beautiful Key West Style Home on Quiet Canal in Steinhatchee, Fl. located on a GULF ACCESS tidal canal that is only a 10 minute boat ride to the Gulf. Dockage is most suitable for boats for boats that are 22ft or less and all kayaks or canoes. If you have concerns about your boat's suitability please ask prior to booking. Maneuverability is more difficult for larger boats .*Please note I can not guarantee dockage of boats if caused by a very low tide which is extremely rare or storm related event. USE OF ALL DOCKAGE IS AT THE GUESTS RISK. Please ask if you have any questions before booking.
If you need a place to park your boat, boat trailer or golf cart, no worries, there is plenty space with this private yard. The large dock has plenty of room to relax around the firepit or fish of the private dock. Dock is equipped with a Fish Cleaning Station (please no scallop cleaning because scallop shells can't be disposed in canal or garbage can). Enjoy our firepit while grilling on our charcoal grill, eating on large outside table or relaxing on the dock; or on screened porch or master room balcony overlooking the canal.

We stayed for three nights and had the best time. The property is bigger than I thought it would be, very clean and a very quiet neighborhood. We did a little fishing in the canal and really enjoyed the outside space. We also enjoyed sitting on the front porch. Who can resist a porch swing?? The house was very clean, very well stocked and smelled really good. The master room is very roomy and comfortable. The balcony outside of the master bedroom has a beautiful honeysuckle vine that smells so good. It makes seeing the canal from the balcony difficult, but the downstairs area under the balcony is roomy, with plenty of outside furniture to sit on and perfect view of the canal. It is also very well shaded. We have no complaints at all. It definitely deserves the 5 stars and we will definitely keep this place in mind to stay again when we visit again. Thank you so much for a really nice getaway!

Great guests that I would certainly rent to again.
This home was so well equipped. We didn't need to bring anything.Attention to detail was amazing . Comfortable bed . I felt so comfortable here ..Michael was extremely accommodating.
I had an amazing stay! The place was exactly as described—clean, cozy, and in a great location. Check-in was super easy, and the host was very responsive and helpful throughout the trip. I’d absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a comfortable and stress-free stay!
The house was perfect. It had everything you would need for your stay in lovely quiet neighborhood. The neighbors were even friendly but you really would not know you had any. We would definitely choose this home to stay again in if in the area, Definitely recommend,

Thank you very much for your stay and your kind comments.

This is a very well equipped home with the owners thinking of everything down to K-cup teas, coffees, different types of sweeteners, etc. Plenty of cookware and spices to go with whatever you're cooking. This was like a home away from home experience and I loved the porch swing. Unfortunately, we were only able to stay one night. The ONLY reason I did not give this place an excellent is because we couldn't dock our rather large boat outside. A smaller boat would have worked, but otherwise, we enjoyed our stay and the place is right around the corner from the main restaurants in Steinhatchee. I would definitely consider another stay at this home, Woody's place!
Very quiet and peaceful. Close to everything but away from everything. We loved it, would return.

About the host
Hosted by Michael Woodruff
From Valdosta Ga. and purchased as a second home to go offshore fishing. Also enjoy fishing the river and inshore fishing along with scalloping. The home makes a great get away to relax and enjoy the many water and non water activities or simply spend time relaxing. Community does not have one stop light. I find many of the same renters coming back each year along with new ones as well. They tell me the house is always immaculate and kept freshly decorated and the location is the best. Give us a try and see how you like it.
Why they chose this property
One of the best areas in Steinhatchee and property is located only 10 minutes via boat to the Gulf (no wake ride). Yard is partially fenced in offering landscaping, private dock and floating dock to use Kayaks or Jon Boats. Private yard large enough to park your boat trailer. Dock is excellent area to relax and cook out or enjoy the firepit. There is a fish cleaning station on the dock. Home offers a large screened in porch and the master bedroom has a King size bed and a comfortable couch to relax while watching TV. Master Bedroom has a private balcony overlooking the canal with outside patio set to enjoy a cup of coffee or your favorite beverage. House is fully equipped with all amenities. High speed fiber internet with large Smart TV's in both bedrooms and living room with Firesticks and Youtube TV. Very clean, immaculate and furnished/decorated nicely.
What makes this property unique
Nature fully exposed with river, wildlife, Gulf and beautiful sunsets! Several state parks are only a few miles drive to spend the day. The small community is blessed to have a Grocery store, several convenience stores and a Dollar General. If you need a charter for any water activity, they are always available and at great rates. Also you will find many locals who are ready to clean your catch of the day, from inshore, offshore fish and scallops. There are several great landmark restaurants located within a mile of our house. Several full service marinas to launch your boat or get fuel and bait/ice. Also available are rentals for boats, Kayaks and Golf carts so you can fully enjoy your vacation. Night time is always an adventure with a couple of local hot spots usually offering live bands and/or karaoke and the location is close or on the water with outside Tiki style bars. My property is surrounded by nature that encompasses large Oak trees, Cypress trees and many other natural elements great for exploring or photography.
