Very well appointed and perfect for a family or group of fishing buddies. We started out with three, then four and then back to three for our stay. This is the downstairs of a canal house and it was very nice. We had to communicate with the owner and they were very quick to accommodate. We will definitely stay here again for our annual fishing trip.

Great time!

We brought our son down for his 7th birthday. We had a great time. Property was just as pictured, clean, communication was great. He enjoyed fishing off the dock while we weren’t out and about checking out nature and wildlife. We will for sure be back.

The hosts were very welcoming and provided clear and prompt communication, with local knowledge. The house was very clean, comfortable, and very peaceful, especially at night. It was very well equipped, including filtered water, coffee with two different coffee systems and plenty of kitchen amenities.The dock access was only a few steps behind the house, and included the use of fresh water hose, electricity and mooring whips to keep our boat off the dock through the tide changes. There is a short canal out to the bay,. The canal is not passable at very low tides, but that was easily worked around by timing entry/exit the one time it happened during our stay. There was plenty of parking for the boat trailer and truck.

Everglade trip

Place was very nice, zero complaints with the property or stay...The cleaning fee is absolutely ridiculous, this would probably make me look elsewhere for my next trip.Was unaware that it was a shared property till i spoke with the person on here. No indication on the posting

Paul, We are so glad you enjoyed our house and your stay! We strive to keep our costs as low as possible. Due to the remote location, finding a quality and reliable source for cleaning is more difficult and expensive than in more populated areas. When you mentioned "unaware that it was a shared property," I think you are referring to it being a vertical duplex with separate entrances for each level and no shared space(s). We appreciate you bringing this to our attention, and we have updated our listing to indicate it is two separate duplex units.
