Second time staying at this property, we enjoy Indian River and being able to dock our boat right at the house for easy access onto the river. Our only issue was no air conditioning during our stay with 92 degree days

Bill, thank you for your review and feedback. Please see under the amenities and climate control tab which reflects there is no A/C. After your check-out, we did have to replace the water heater as it was not working efficiently. I apologize for the inconveniences and hope you were able to enjoy most of your stay.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! The home is exactly what the pictures show. It was clean, has comfortable beds, nicely updated bathrooms and had everything we needed. Docking space was plenty for a 24ft tritoon. Loved having easy access to the boat. Kris responded quickly to questions. The neighbors were also very friendly. We would definitely stay here again!

Perfect spot

We had a great stay, convenient location on a canal between Mullet Lake and, Burt Lake, literally seconds to Indian River. The home was very clean and had everything we needed. We were able to take our dog (wonderful to find such a nice pet friendly place). Kris was a pleasant to work with.

Great stay and location, with easy access to Burt or Mullet Lakes. We brought 99% of our own items: food, detergent, pillows, plates, garbage bags etc. Wish there would have been better cooking utensils, pots and pans and a vacuum.

Really enjoyed our stay great area for boating, fishing, eating, and shopping. Canel provides excellent protection for your boat and has easy access to Burt Lake, Mullet Lake and beyond. Interior house cleaning was excellent. Dwelling could use a little handyman help in inside (light above vanity missing, toilet seats lose (we tightened), etc. Outside needs some cleaning but is very nice.
