Beautiful canal view, direct Gulf access, gorgeous heated saltwater pool!
This lovely 3 bedroom, 2 bath home is located in the highly desired Yacht Club area of SE Cape Coral. This location is close to restaurants and shopping by car, as well as minutes from open water and the Gulf of Mexico by boat. There are no bridges or locks to go through on your way by boat to the Caloosahatchee River! If traveling by car, you are also only minutes from the Cape Coral Bridge that heads across to the Ft Myers area and Sanibel Island.
The saltwater heated pool and lanai area overlooking the canal provides a relaxing space to swim, dine, read, or relax. If you like to fish, you can fish right from the dock and catch the night’s dinner! Grill your catch using the gas grill provided. If kayaking is more your liking, there are kayaks (with life jackets) for your use — leave right from the dock! At this time, the boat lift is not available for use by renters. But you are more than welcome to bring your boat (or rent one) and tie it up at the dock. A short, 20-25 minute, boat ride will have you at Sanibel's breathtaking beaches!
The 17 feet of glass sliding doors leads from the lanai back into the family room area - complete with couches, smart TV, and game table.
Each bedroom has a comfortable queen bed, smart TV, laundry basket, alarm clock, dresser, and ceiling fan for your comfort.
Laundry is available in the garage so that you can dry those wet suits and towels! Also, there are assorted pool floats, beach chairs, beach umbrella, soft sided cooler and fishing poles for your use.
For security reasons, there is an active Ring Camera at the front door enclosure that captures footage of the front entrance, yard, garage, and driveway. There is also one in the backyard dock/pool area attached to the outside of the pool cage, near the shed. This one captures video of the lanai, pool, dock and yard areas. However, this one will be turned off when your party arrives and for the duration of your stay, unless we have reason to believe that you are in violation of our house rules. If this is the case, we may briefly use the backyard Ring camera to check on the condition of our property. Violations can result in extra charges, or early termination of your stay.
We hope you come enjoy the Cape Coral sunshine!

Alberta, Thank you for trusting us with your vacation for another year! We are happy that you had an excellent stay. Thanks for your five star review, and for taking such good care of the house. Hoping you had a safe trip home!
Thanks, Jennifer
The Property is in a great location. Super quiet neighborhood. The host is very quick to respond to messages before, during and after the rental. The kitchen is stocked enough to make meals without having to eat out. The pool is a nice size to float and if you have younger children.We would definitely rent again.

This was a terrific property! Very clean and a quiet neighborhood great for an after dinner walk or swim in the lovely pool. Beds were comfortable and kitchen was well stocked with pots and pans. We really appreciated the beach towels and blankets since we happened to be here on a couple of colder mornings. Jennifer was great at communicating and we had a wonderful stay!

Debra, we are happy to hear that you enjoyed your stay with us, and are excited to see that you have already booked to visit again next winter! Thank you for the lovely review, and for being such great guests. We will be glad to have you stay with us again. Many thanks, Jennifer
Beautifully updated home with easy access by boat to river and gulf. Comfortable accommodations with all the amenities you would have in your own home. You needn’t bring anything but your suitcase! Ample space and seating in the living/dining area that completely opens to the outdoor patio with gorgeous heated pool — chef’s kiss! Everything is in good working order, and I loved that all the light switches and dials/buttons were labeled, a tip I’m stealing for my own vacation rental. I would not hesitate to stay here again.

Joseph, thanks so much for both the kind review and five stars! We are thrilled to hear that the house had everything you needed, and that you were able to enjoy the pool and lanai. I am especially glad that the labels were helpful! (I always hate trying to figure out the light switches when we stay new places.) We appreciate you taking good care of the house, and hope you can come back to stay again soon! Thank you, Jennifer
We had an amazing time! The pool was fantastic, and we absolutely loved being right on the canal. The home had all the amenities we could have asked for and was very comfortable. The host was very responsive and easy to communicate with, which made everything seamless. We wouldn’t hesitate to book again!

Thank you for being such great guests! We would love to have you stay with us the next time you vacation in the area! Thanks, Jennifer
My husband and our kids stayed at this home and had such a wonderful experience. We absolutely loved the layout of the house—it was very comfortable and made it easy for our whole family to relax and feel right at home. The heated saltwater pool was a huge highlight for us; we swam every single day and truly enjoyed it.My husband also made great use of the kayak and fishing gear, and one of his outings was especially memorable—he got to see both a manatee and a dolphin, which was such a cool experience.Jennifer was an amazing host—very hospitable and always quick to respond to any questions we had. Overall, we had a very relaxing and enjoyable stay and would definitely recommend this home to others.

Maddie, thank you very much for the five star review and the generous, kind words! We are so happy to hear that you and your family enjoyed the house, pool, and the kayaks. I have seen a dolphin from the dock before, but have to admit I am a bit jealous of the manatee sighting! We love renting to families who take such good care of the house ... we hope that you are able to stay again sometime soon! Many thanks, Jennifer
The owners were very good about correcting things that were wrong. The kitchen faucet needed replacing, the beach umbrella was broken, most of the towels were stained and/or ripped, the pool chairs and tables were damaged and unusable. The cushions on the outside chairs were stained. The primary bath has a hole in the drawers liked someone kicked it in. The garbage disposal didn’t work. The house is run down and the furnishings are as well. I’m sorry, we wouldn’t stay threre again but the owners were very nice.

Response from VrboOwner on 22 Apr, 2026
Lynn, I am very sorry that the house did not meet your expectations.
There were indeed a few items that we were unaware of that needed fixing --- such as one of the pool chaise lounges and the beach umbrella. However, to say that all of the pool chairs were unusable is not quite accurate. There were 4 lounge chairs, and we had a replacement for the broken one by the next day. We also had a new beach umbrella delivered the next day, as well as new sets of towels when you expressed concerns over the ones provided. The kitchen faucet also worked, our repair company said that it was fine, but just running a bit slow when the sprayer was on. However, we also had that replaced for you within one day. There was an issue with the outlet to the garbage disposal, and it is already fixed --- you told us that there was no need to repair it during your stay.
Unfortunately, some renters are harder on the items found at VRBO homes than others. We do everything we can to provide nice, well kept items for our guests to use. When we find there has been an issue or damage, we do our very best to get it fixed or replaced as soon as possible.
We do appreciate you letting us know of things that needed our attention! We always strive to give our guests the best experiences and want them to be comfortable during their stay. Thank you for taking care of our house while you were there, we hope you had a safe trip home.
Thanks,
Jennifer

We had a great eight nights at the house. Our 8 year old boys LOVED the pool and played in it every afternoon. Great location - we had a rental so driving to and from was no biggie. The size was perfect for the four of us and we were able to spread out when we wanted to. Would love to stay again!!

About the host
Hosted by Jennifer and Mike Jantausch
We live in Ohio and have been vacationing in the area with our family for over 20 years. We all just love the place! With our kids now grown, we decided it was time to buy a house here and have a destination of our own.
Why they chose this property
Although we are renting the house, we are also using it when we come to town - so we are treating it like we live here.
When we bought the house, it didn’t have a pool. So, we got to design and build a lanai/pool area we love! The saltwater pool and outdoor living area will bring your hours of enjoyment!
What makes this property unique
The location of this home is amazing! Whether you want to walk, drive, or boat it is close to where you wish to go. We are within 2 miles of the Cape Coral Beach & Yacht Club, as well as minutes from wonderful restaurants, groceries, and shopping.
