Blue Bayou - Charming home with heated pool, tiki and OPTIONAL BOAT DOCKAGE

Old and new Florida charm coexist for a relaxing and comfortable stay in this clean, charming, newly renovated home tucked in a treasure location between all that is tropical, beach, and water. Our location is unique in that you do not have the expense of staying directly on the water yet have access to a dock (just steps from the property) for boat dockage, fishing or watching the manatees. There is a neighborhood bridge with a 84” clearance at king high tide.

Coming with boats and trailers? Not a problem. Thanks to the exuberant amount of parking on this property, you can arrive and unload your gear, trailer the boat to the boat ramp 2 blocks away, park the trailer back at your doorstep, and dock the boat steps from your temporary abode. Being a boating family, one of our greatest goals was to make access to the water as easy and cost efficient as possible.

The prize of this home is the backyard oasis. The myriad of sunny days, 249 per year, is the inspiration for this tropical getaway within a getaway. Beginning with the refreshing saltwater pool (heated for an additional fee) and ending with the stately 390 square foot tiki hut with ambient lighting, the in-betweens will delight also such as the propane firepit for cool evenings, the outside shower for a convenient rinse (especially after a salty day on the water), the convenient outside-access half bath, and spacious turf for cornhole and other game-playing. This oasis will continue to pull you outdoors for entertaining and relaxing with a grill and grill tools for preparing your catch of the day, a full-size fridge for easy access to libations and snacks, a teak table for dining for 8, and lounge seating and a large TV under the tiki.
