This is comfortable for families and pets. The canal offers another tier of enjoyment. The one bathroom is roomy. One suggestion is to bring groceries with you —larger grocery stores are nearer the seawall. Communication with the host is excellent (hope it was the host and not A.I. ). This home is well supplied.

Nice, clean property. The dog kennel in living room was a plus! Owner was wonderful with communication and even allowed us to check in a little early. :)

The only thing was the fee for the pet was not listed and we paid in full when we booked and 2 days before I get a message about a pet fee that was not listed or added to my total that was the only frustrating issue because I did look for the fee every on the site and information about the house fee and found nothing. It should just be listed along with all the rules the owner has for the home and fees thats all, otherwise our stay was great the house was very nice and clean

Canal fun!

This place was really nice! Perfect for couples and families! The lower story is a spacious deck, with chairs and easy canal access for boating and fishing. I personally went and got bait at a place called Bait Daddy's, and used squid from the dock. Caught a blue crab, gafftops, and a croacker.

Thank you for the great review! We're so glad you enjoyed the home and made the most of the canal access—it sounds like you had a fun and successful fishing trip! We love hearing about guests making memories right from the dock. Thanks for sharing your experience (and the Bait Daddy's tip!), and we’d be happy to welcome you back anytime!

A tranquil and inviting place!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Duck Holiday! We are grateful for the fantastic location, the useful communication with the host, and the cleanliness.I would only recommend that the balcony be modernized and the exterior doors be repaired, as they were difficult to open. The rest was exceptional! Thank you!

When we arrived the smell of fumigation was very strong, and it lasted thru the stay. The garage you think is available to you to park your car is not for use. There is construction across the street so there were no quiet time.
