About this property

The Reel'em Inn, Chokoloskee Island Fisherman's Paradise

Take in the tropical feel of Chokoloskee Island in an impeccably maintained 3 bedroom/2 bath single family stilt home nestled in the canopy of Royal Poinciana trees and palms. This fisherman's paradise is a unique find in a small fishing village in the heart of the Everglades National Park. Captain Brock Wagner is available for full day private fishing charters. After a day of fishing or kayaking simply relax in a rocking chair on the 600 sqft screen porch or watch the sunset at the marina.
Chokoloskee Island is 3 miles south of Everglades City in the Heart of the Everglades National Park. The area is know for great fishing, kayaking, and airboat tours. Many local restaurants offer bring your own catch and the chef will cook it for you! Everglades City has a number of additional restaurants including a pizza shop, gas stations, and bait shops. There is a small grocery store in Everglades City for the essentials, however you may want to bring provisions with you. The Reel 'em Inn has a full kitchen, all new appliances, new air conditioner and an outdoor gas grill. We had a busy summer updating a few things at The Reel’Em Inn. New beds in all 3 bedrooms, including a comfy king serta adjustable bed in the master. Both bathrooms got some upgrades, new toilets (one tall), vanities, lighting, mirrors and more. We will be installing an above ground pool for the summer of 26!
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

Beautiful, thought of everything!

Can't say enough good things about this place, spotlessly clean and lots of amenities, exactly as described, incredible orchids and gardens, a nice wide screened porch under the palms with a warm Florida breeze. Maureen was very helpful and gave a free tour of the island, went fishing with Brock and had a great day! Chokoloskee might not be for everyone (this is a good thing) but for the people interested in this unique and historical corner of the Everglades you can't do better than staying here.

About the host

Hosted by Maureen and Brock Wagner

Host profile image
As the wife of a fishing captain in Chokoloskee, I am able sneak away to enjoy the beauty of the Florida Everglades. Otherwise, I keep myself busy raising 4 children and working full time for a global company. We have a small RV on site called the "Captains Quarters" where owners may stay on occasion, this is completely separate from the house and has a separate parking area.

What makes this property unique

In the words of our guests, the screened porches are the highlight, surrounded by palms and orchids this is the most serene place on earth. The front porch has multiple seating areas, including a picnic table that seats 8. Great place to disappear from the hustle of daily life. The back screened porch has been referred to as the coffee porch, a quiet place to relax in the morning before venturing out to the Everglades national park to hike or fish!
