We have stayed at this beautiful home several years now and are never disappointed! They’ve done some recent upgrades to the home too, which only add to how amazing already it really is.You feel like you are worlds away from any traffic or chaos, but truly, you are just a couple minutes from the grocery store, amazing restaurants, and so much more to do.The hosts of this property are fantastic! Easy to communicate with, quick responses, and often will call on your arrival day just to make sure you made it in OK.

My family really enjoyed the house. Has a great screened-in back porch. Outdoors is beautiful. Loved the pool and the fishing. They have bikes, fishing poles, kayaks, all the extras you don’t always get from rentals. Hosts were very responsive and friendly.

We have now stayed at Mockingbird point a couple of times and the premises is always spotless and as promised or exceeding any promises or expectations that we had or was stated in the listing. Being a fellow fisherman I got to know the owners pretty well this last time both by phone and text and I hardly recommend Mockingbird point to anybody looking for a property this size.

We have stayed here every year for at least 10 years. Never had a major problem and if there was it was rectified quickly. Every year we have stayed here the Burkhart's have updated the house in some sort of way.You won't go wrong renting this house!!

Great stay and communication with Host. Property has everything you need. Very quiet and secluded location. Perfect for two couples. Two bedrooms and two bathrooms. One in the master and you can close off the other to made that private too or leave the door open, Very well stocked with everything you need. Pool was surprisingly warm for May. Perfect temp. Dolphins swimming in the bay was a treat one afternoon. We had a great time!!

Thanks for staying at Mockingbird Pointe. The dolphins have been more frequent visitors this year than usual. Early mornings are often best, but they can appear at any time. They follow schools of mullet up Sisters Creek and up the channel to our tropical lagoon. Always a treat to see them!

This was our 5th stay at Mockingbird Pointe. Once again everything was amazing. The property is so beautiful & relaxing. There’s some new updates since last year. There is a new quiet & cozy office space and some updates on the dock with new LED dock lights. Phil & Linda are wonderful hosts who take great care of their home and guests. We have already booked for our 6th year. Thank you Phil & Linda for sharing your beautiful home!John H.

Great vacation location with handy travel and check-in information provided prior to arrival. The house was wonderful with clean and well-maintained grounds and pool. Views were spectacular and the covered tiki was a welcoming outdoor element. We will return to Mockingbird Pointe again in the future.

This place is amazing!!! We instantly felt at home! The host provides everything you could ever need to have a perfect vacation- bicycles, kayaks, fishing poles, a private dock with a fish light that attracts fish, a pool with toys- we could not have asked for a better time! They even have a manatee that makes daily visits. We will definately stay again!
