About this property

NEWLY REMODELED-Peaceful Florida Island Home-5 minute canal ride to Gulf waters!

Come relax in our Pine Island dream home--a charming, open and colorful floor plan will remind you that you are on a Florida vacation at every turn. Watch a thunderous storm from the furnished lanai, or fish for snook, snapper, crab, and shark from our dock. If you are lucky, catch a glimpse of dolphin or shark circling our fish light at night. Enjoy a peaceful stroll or bike ride to several restaurants and bait stores a few blocks away. World class beaches can be found by a ten minute boat ride to Picnic Island Beach, or a 30 minute boat ride to Cayo Costa and Sanibel islands. Fish the renown waters of Pine Island Sound for tarpon, snook, shark, reds, flounder, Spanish mackerel, and so many more species--simply a canal ride away. Enjoy local shopping and eateries at quaint Pine Island Center and Matlacha Island. Expect a quiet, laidback island-time vacation while staying in this new VRBO listing.

About the host

Hosted by Jeff & Michelle Hardesty

Host profile image
Residing and working as educators in Washington State, our favorite place to vacation is Pine Island, Florida. It is our dream to retire in this Saint James City home. A happy family of five and soon to be empty nesters.

Please know that this vacation rental is a new venture for us. Our goal is to provide a special vacation experience for our renters. As time permits, we will continue to make improvements to the property, so please feel free to reach out to us personally with any suggestions you might have.

Why they chose this property

Jeff's family has lived in the Florida area for decades. Having grown up on Sanibel Island in the 1970s, when it was a different and slower paced place, there has been a longing to return to the area. Saint James City has that special laidback feel as island living should. Simply put, Pine Island has charm and a reminiscent sense of peace.
