This homes location makes for a beautiful quiet escape. The bed was super comfortable. Kitchen had all the items one needs to make a meal and clean up the dishes. The owners had great communication with us the entire stay! We will definitely be going back, but need to do it during the height of manatees timeframe.

The pictures do not give enough credit to this property! 10/10 stay. The back deck has a beautiful view of the bay area and is a great place for bird-watching or having a glass of wine. A really quiet and comfortable place to stay. Our hosts were very communicative and helpful. We will definitely be back and stay here in the future.

Our hosts were so kind and thoughtful! The weather was particularly cold when we arrived, and they had electric heaters and extra blankets for us at the house, which were very welcome. The views from the house were lovely, I could have spent the entire day looking over the tidal marshes--I did some watercolor sketches from the back deck. The house decor and appointments were very well-chosen and pleasant, it had a well-stocked kitchen with all the comforts of home. We hope to return another year, we just loved this house!

Our visit in this beautiful oasis was a welcoming experience! Not only was it incredible comfortable it was peaceful beyond our expectations! I believe our favorite spot was on the rear deck. The whole set up of the deck was perfect. From the sunrise to the wildlife… to the sounds of nature… I am at a loss of words. The house was squeaky clean and no detail was neglected. The kitchen is well equipped for anything we wanted to prepare. The grounds were nicely kept. We enjoyed the short walk to the boat launch as well as Pecks!!! ( amazing seafood!) The little village is full of friendly people. Our doggy Lacy said she gives you a big thumbs up and we do too. We will definitely be back and highly recommend your little piece of heaven to anyone looking for a restful and beautiful getaway!Thank you so much for your hospitality!Sincerely Greg, Suzanne and Lacy
