Host is amazing! So flexible and kind! The place is set up for the best time. My son loved fishing right off the dock, kayaking, and we all enjoyed the sunrises, sunsets and the game room! Everything is so well done, organized and clean! Wonderful stay can’t wait to come back!

Great space with all the amenities and fully stocked! Close to everything but far enough away to be out of the crazy. Beautiful hiking trails nearby, beach, and of course, manatees! Host was responsive - although we didn’t need anything! They thought if everything. Highly recommend.
Beautiful tree with lovely swing next to water for relaxing!
