Originally built as the Linger Lodge fishing house this home has quite the history and charm. Updated and expanded in the early 2000's this home boasts a wide open main floor that includes a living room, dining area and kitchen. There are also separate laundry and bathroom just off the kitchen.
Don't be surprised if you spend most of your days and nights sitting and relaxing on the screened porch just off the kitchen. This peaceful area gives your great views of the river to unwind and wave to the boaters go by.
Sneak back inside to unwind in the master suit where a king size bed awaits along with a claw foot tub to soak in. For those wanting a true Florida experience you can enjoy the private outdoor shower attached to the master suite. (Don't worry there is a normal shower upstairs in the loft)
Up the spiral staircase is the loft featuring a queen size sleep number bed (sleeps 2), a day bed that has 2 single beds (each sleep 1) and a futon with a double size topper (sleeps 1). For ease there is a bathroom with shower located in the loft as well.
Below the porch, but not connected to it is the deck and dock area that is open to all guests on the property. Enjoy sitting out in the sun, fishing or taking the pedal boat out for cruise on the river, who knows you may see some awesome Florida wildlife.

We loved staying at this place in Bradenton. It is quiet and a great place to ride our bikes. It is also centrally located to the restaurants on Main Street in Lakewood Ranch as well as other restaurants nearby. We would definitely stay here again. Thank you for a lovely stay.
Warm and spacious house were we felt at home right away. Gorgeous veranda where we enjoyed relaxing before and after golf. Generous amenities provided. Host very friendly and available if needed.
The screened in porch overlooking the river was the best feature of the house. So nice!Outdoor shower is great as long as you have good weather. Spiral stairs to upstairs loft area made me dizzy! :)Master BR etc was niceProbably need instructions posted to help figure out how to work the TV’s. Luckily we had savvy tech adults with us! Overall good. Good probably use a thorough cleaning in the living and kitchen area. If you are going to have a family reunion this complex is a great place to stay. Main house plus 2 cottages. Very quaint and perfect for private family and or friends who want to stay close together.
Really enjoyed the floral and fauna and the river.
Really enjoyed the floral and fauna and the river.Like the layout of the property. However something was trying to make a home on the roof above the master bedroom or in the attic for the first two nights. Soon as I notified the property manager sent someone out it got better for the next two nights but on the last night it was back up on the roof trying to get in the chimney made noise was hard to sleep. Also ant problem in the kitchen tiny little ants in the counters and in the coffee pot and in the microwave. I am sure you would have done something to fix this however I did not notified you about this.

Belinda,
You are right, the property is beautiful place to rest and relax. Sorry to hear that there was an unwelcome critter walking on the roof at night. We will work on finding him a new place to explore at nights. I wish you would have told us about the ghost ants. We spray regularly and will be sure to address them for future guests. Thanks again for staying!
No working TV One shower that had poor water temp control No baggage
Would not recommend this property to anyone at half the price

Sorry to hear this. We have 3 fully functioning streaming TV's that guests before you and after you have all used and enjoyed with no issues. We will look into the shower temp controls but have not had any other guests ever have any issues with these. We take great pride in helping every guest have a great stay. During your stay we came to the property many times, almost daily, to help answer questions or concerns. This property has been a great value for many guests, and will continue to be.
We loved this property. The natural beauty was unexpected and so relaxing. The vegetation and wildlife were lovely. Screened porch was great even in hot, humid weather. Really wonderful place. Hosts were very nice and accommodating. Thanks Jane and Steve!
The house is amazing! The owner has thought of everything you could possibly need!! It was clean and so much space! The porch is lovely! You have a beautiful view of the river. We loved the outdoor shower and soaking tub. Our only complaint and it will be temporary, was all the construction next door at the Linger Lodge. I'm afraid it is very noisy in the mornings.

Thanks again for staying. Yes, the porch is an amazing place to relax and watch the river. We are glad that you and your family were able to enjoy all the Main House had to offer. We are sorry about the improvements happening next door. We will reach out to them to work on making it better for future guests. Thanks again.
The property owner is a friendly welcoming host. Never got to meet face to face probably more because of covid but he was readily available with a message through vrbo. The location is in a bit of a pricey neighborhood but a very short drive to lower cost areas. Within an hour drive in pretty much every direction is beaches which is nice because it allows options. The only slight downfall with the house was there is 3 bathrooms but only 1 indoor shower. Not a big issue but definitely takes a little working around.
Overall it's a great place in a fantastic beautiful and peaceful area of florida. Definitely would stay here again.
