Thank you so much for your kind words Shawn! We look forward to you staying with us again! You caught some amazing fish! Thanks for sharing the great pics!!! Vicki and Mark!😀🌴
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this fully stocked, exquisitely decorated, and conveniently located cottage. The cottage has all you need to just drop your bags and relax. We spent most of our time on the screened in porch, overlooking the canal, watching the storms roll in, the dolphins play, and the fish jump!
The beds were comfortable, the decorator touches adorable, and the cottage is located near so many restaurants, art galleries, and shops. Minutes to open waterway if you bring your boat, which we did! Outstanding hosts who have thought of everything from grill to bikes. Extremely clean and nice layout! We’ll be back to visit soon!
By far, one of the nicest small places we have ever stayed.
Very clean and awesomely decorated!!
We had a boat, and the dock was perfect and had very good fenders attached to piles to protect the boat.
We have rented probably close to a hundred properties over the years but I have never seen one that showed all the kitchen utensils/tools/and appliances online, and, everything in the pictures was there!!! We needed nothing.
Vicki could not possibly been any more engaging and helpful. If I could I could give six stars for this little hideaway, I would.

I cannot speak highly enough of this property. The home was immaculate and communication with the owners was the best I have experienced. We loved sitting out on the deck area and meals on the covered patio. I thoroughly recommend this rental and would not hesitate to stay here again.

Kevin, Thank You so much for Your amazing review and such kind words. Wow… we are just blown away! We would be so honored and would love to host You again sometime. All the Best, Vicki and Mark🌴😀
One of the reviews I read said this house is perfect, but I didn’t really believe it until I got there. But it’s perfect plus things I didn’t even dream of. Like chilled wine in the Frig along with cold bottled water and a box of fudge from a local shop. The bed was comfy and the bed linens and towels were first rate. The outdoor space included a gorgeous lanai and a second dining area plus a private dock on the canal. Add to that the friendly neighbors (one baked cookies for us!) and there you have it, perfect plus.
This house was perfect for us. It had plenty of everything you could need. We travel with a box of kitchen utensils, pots, pans, spices, etc. With this house we never even took the box out of the car. The furniture was very comfortable. The back patio and dock area were nicely furnished and very comfortable. Wonderful neighborhood and neighbors and the area is very quiet. Owners could not have been nicer to work with. Convenient to a Public Supermarket, good restaurants and fish markets. We will be returning to this house as often as possible.
Absolutely a fabulous place .Every square inch was beautifuly declorated. Everything we possibly needed was there clean and neat. Outside space was exactly as described just what we where looking for. We can't wait to go back Thanks for the memory's we well have for ever...
