About Bill Armfield
I am a retired land surveyor. My wife and I would love to welcome you to our vacation home. The weather is a lot better than in Indiana where we grew up. We live in West Palm Beach so are available if you have any questions or problems during your stay.
Bill Armfield purchased this Mobile Home in 2016
Why Bill Armfield chose Okeechobee
This property is roomy and located very close to the lock to Lake Okeechobee. We like it especially because if feels roomy and has lots of light. We bought all the furniture with a mind to comfort and sharing time with friends and family. There are plenty of restaurants nearby. The airboat folks are right down the rod. If you are into hunting, there are plenty of spots for duck hunting and pig hunting. Fishing is available everywhere.
What makes this Mobile Home unique
There is a seawall and soon, a floating dock, to park your boat so you don't have to run to the boat ramp in order to use it. There are boat ramps within 10 minutes or less from the house. We are close to all kinds of restaurants and wildlife. The Buckhead Ridge lock to Lake Okeechobee is only 8 minutes by boat.

The property and the landlord were excellent! The trailer is well maintained and clean. It has a carport where you can park a car or a short boat. It has a screened patio where you can park yourself for a relaxing breakfast or dinner. Bill has equipped the place with most of the supplies that you will need. It has two bedrooms and both bedrooms have a bathroom w/shower. I will definitely stay here the next time I fish Lake Okeechobee.

Bill, our stay was even better than we expected. Was very clean, and had every amenity you could think of.Beds were very comfortable and area was quiet. We had a birthday party with 15 guest, and had plenty of room. We really enjoyed the fishing, thank's to you and the accommodations. I plan to come again next year.
