Spend mornings casting from the dock, afternoons by the pool, and evenings sharing dinner under glowing skies.

Perfect for: Large families • Multi-couple groups • Boaters and beach lovers

This was a fun place to stay. Only suggestion would be a baby gate because the baby kept crawling up the stairs lol, but she had sooo much fun doing it. Beautiful back view and really close walk straight down the street for the beach. Sunsets are amazing. Pool table was fun and so was the putting green. The pool and hot tub were clean and refreshing.

Thank you so much for the wonderful 5-star review! We’re so glad you and your family had such a fun stay and enjoyed all the home has to offer from the beautiful views and amazing sunsets to the pool, hot tub, pool table, and putting green! It sounds like your little one definitely enjoyed her own stair-climbing adventure. 😊 We appreciate your feedback regarding the baby gate. For sanitation and liability reasons, we don’t provide baby equipment such as cribs, high chairs, or baby gates; however, we’re always happy to refer our guests to BabyQuip, a trusted local rental service where families can rent these items for their stay.

This place is amazing!!! It was so beautiful and clean! There were plenty of towels for our group of 13 and the pool was so much fun! We saw dolphins in the morning and loved how the pool was partially shaded in the late afternoon making it possible to still swim even with sunburns! The walk to the beach was a piece of cake and host was wonderful with answering questions. We will definitely want to stay here again!

We loved this place! Dolphins swam right up to the dock almost everyday! Kitchen was well stocked with pots and pans and utensils. There are also 2 big refrigerators and freezers which was really helpful. Pool was amazing and plenty of towels provided. This place was also a couple blocks to the beach. Perfect house for our group of 20!

We absolutely adored this property and look forward to coming back in the future. The home was large enough for our family gathering plus had enough space if you were seeking a little solitude from the rest of the family;) You get the best of both worlds with being on the ICW and blocks from the beach. My family loved all the wildlife the ICW provided. We saw manatees, dolphins, sharks, and all sorts of birds. We even named one of the giant egrets that visited us nightly at dinner time, Fred. We’re going to miss Fred and this gem of a house. It was clean, the pool was wonderful after a hot day at the beach, the kitchen was well stocked, it had 2 refrigerators ( definitely needed the extra for bevies), and the host was very responsive. Book it now before someone else does!
