About this property
Lakefront/ scenic views/ boating/ Wildlife/ Gators/ fishing fun!
Enjoy your stay on lakefront property on beautiful Lake Poinsett. Our newly renovated garage apartment offers a queen bed, full bath, kitchen table, microwave, toaster, fridge, free wifi & private side entrance. A two tiered deck offers guests the ability to fish for bass, blue gill, or cat fish just to name a few. End the day with a glass of wine waiting on manatees or gators to pass by for a quick hello. For the bird enthusiast, eagles, hawks, blue heron, & white egrets are in bountiful supply
The space
Enjoy your stay in your own private suite with private entrance. Your location offers a private boat slip available to launch your boat, kayak or canoe. Fishing is possible from your two decks you can cast a line and enjoy a cocktail or two while overlooking the water.
Guest access
Guests have their own private suite on the side of the house with private separate entrance with personal parking spot on left side of house which will be next to your suite. There is a boat ramp to launch your boat, kayak or canoe directly into Lake Poinsett. All guests have access to backyard. Just follow down boat ramp till you see the swinging door, walk up three steps to access the backyard. There you will find two decks overlooking the water that are strictly for your enjoyment. The top deck is great to see gators swim by or enjoy a great blue heron fly by hunting for fish. Fish tackle and polls are available if you chose to cast a line to catch a bass, bluegill or a catfish off one of the decks.
Guests will see the backyard is separated in half by a fence where on the other side you may see our two small dogs on occasion.The white dogs name is summer and she is blind and our other dog Gizzie is very friendly. Guests are free to use the other backyard deck area as well and enjoy the view from the swing, just be advised gizzie may want to say hi and look for a belly rub.
Two bikes are available outside on front porch to bike ride around the neighborhood and enjoy different views of lake from four different canals.
Other things to note
We do offer two bikes to ride around the canals to enjoy the view and get exercise, yet you will need your car to drive anywhere else.
