The home is beautiful and well appointed. Comfortable beds, open and airy living spaces. View from the house overlooking the canal is very pretty. The hosts were extremely helpful and responsive. All the amenities listed were provided. Our family had a great time swimming in the pool and fishing off the dock. We highly recommend Jackie’s property.

Older home with complete inside renewal. Very enjoyable both inside and the back of home including pool and dock. Only one minor issue trying to determine how to turn on the a/c. A quick call resolved that concern and the stay was wonderful.

FANTASTIC home

WE absolutely love this home! Beautiful and comfortable decor. Soft bedding. Lots of extras like kayaks and a swing by the pool. Great neighborhood - quiet and nice for walks. Wonderful host provided great communication and made the check in so easy. So many offers of help or recommendations that we felt well taken care of. We will definitely return for another stay. Just loved it!!

LOVE LOVE LOVE this home

We absolutely love this beautiful home. There is plenty of room without feeling cavernous. The decor is gorgeous. The bedding is so soft and comfortable. The small details really added up. We spent so much time in the screened in pool area. We loved that there are washer and dryer as well as kayaks and an outdoor grill. The neighborhood is quiet and pretty. I absolutely recommend this home. We definitely want to stay here again.

Best rental ever!

We had the most incredible stay in this stunning home. It was truly PERFECT for our family. We traveled with our three young kiddos and this home had something for all of us. Check in was easy and straightforward and communication during our stay was flawless. The home is beautiful. We spent time by the pool, countless hours fishing off the private dock, and made the absolute best memories as a family. This home is everything we dreamed of and more. Would highly recommend booking and we hope to rebook again in the future.

Stunning Vacations Home

I have never stayed in a vacation rental that has been as beautiful as this place. We spent just shy of a week and still wasn’t ready to leave. This immaculate home sits in a quiet neighborhood, fenced in yard, and has everything that you could ask for. Pictures advertise say it all. We had communication with the homeowners in which our questions where answered promptly. I look forward to staying at this rental, and also sharing this gem with others. Thank you Mike & Cassandra

Beautiful Stay!

This is a beautiful home! It was spotlessly clean and we had everything we needed! The beds were comfortable, the TV’s are huge, kitchens utensils were great for cooking. The outside area was expansive and we enjoyed watching the pelicans hunt for fish on the canal everyday. We even saw a dolphin swim thru. If there wasn’t so much to do and see in the area, you would never need to leave. We had beautiful sunsets right from our dinner table! That being said we did have a couple problems. The owner was super responsive however he was not able to get the pool fixed while we were there (the heater doesn’t work and the pool is leaking). Since we’ve stayed in the area before we know Florida weather can be iffy in February and wanted the option to use the pool if it was too chilly or windy for the beach. That was our only big disappointment. Would definitely stay again if the pool gets fixed!

Wow! No detail was missed!

This home is stunning ... and comfortable and oh so welcoming. It was perfect for hosting our family reunion in Palmetto/Sarasota. No details have been missed in the interior -- from the comfy bedding and towels, to the well appointed kitchen. I wished we'd been able to stay longer to enjoy the kayaks, swimming pool and other water toys. The back yard setting overlooking the water was perfect for morning coffee and afternoon happy hour. The neighborhood is quiet and well maintained. This is the perfect home for a family celebration, or a quiet respite. Thank you for your hospitality.

Exceeded All Expectations!

We spent 9 days in this lovely home in June/July 2022. This home is a sanctuary. Peaceful, quiet, beautiful, lovely sunsets, so comfortable, every amenity imaginable - and much, much more! We relaxed, swam in the pool and kayaked (literally in the backyard) up the canals to the ocean. The decor of the home just lends itself to an atmosphere of relaxation. The environment of the home is a conduit to have some deep, life conversations and we left feeling so replenished! The location is central - within less than an hour's drive in any direction, you can get to any of these places (some within a few minutes): Sarasota, Tampa, John's Pier, Treasure Island, Longboat Key, Bradenton, Anna Maria Island, and many more! We did day trips to Busch Gardens (best roller coasters!), a jet boat adventure with gators, shopping at John's Pier Boardwalk, restaurants in Longboat Key and Bradenton, the Florida Aquarium in Tampa, numerous beach trips, local markets... the list goes on! We also just really loved staying in and enjoying this beautiful home. We'd give it 10 stars out of 5 if we could... will definitely be back! The only disappointment was having to leave!

Absolutely Charming!

This is a beautiful (in every single way) home with an immaculate lot to boot! The access was simple and safe, the home was clean, spacious, and inviting. The pool and back porch were tranquil and utterly relaxing. I’m so glad I chose to stay here in such a quiet neighborhood. While I was alone on business for my stay, this could easily have been a family getaway/vacation spot for my entire family. You will no regret booking this gem. Go get it, and let the relaxation begin!
