About this property

Shack In The Back: King & Queen Beds, YES to pets! Very UNIQUE decor.

Eclectically decorated-Bringing nature in doors. Distressed Butcher block countertop w/a wash pale sink, Exposed pipes in the kitchen & shower w/ Edison lights for the industrial, yet nostalgic look. An antique-claw tub outdoor shower. FRESH & CRISP sheets on a brand-new King & Queen size Beautyrest mattresses. Premium pillows round off a restful nights rest/sleep. A great deal of care went into the build & décor, as we are continuously having family & friends visit & wanted a place for them, that was just as comfortable as my own home. No sofa indoors, only outdoor living area, however there is a 3 sided wrap around porch with gliders that can be moved/rearranged/relocated with ease. Situated on just over 2 acres, nestled next to the river. RV & boat trailer parking on site, Large fishing dock. Private driveway, Secure grounds, Pet friendly, large dogs ok, ^^^PET FEE IS FOR 1 ANIMAL, extra pets are subject to additional fees due upon arrival****Or added to your bill. Honesty is best policy! This fishing community is extremely laid back & quiet. The streets roll up early & there's VERY limited nightlife! Our crime rate is ultra low, our Sheriff William Snyder - doesn't mess around! We are approx. 10 miles from both I-95 & Florida's Turnpike, making it a convenient stop for travelers. An array of birds gather around the many feeders, providing soothing melodies. Manatee are year round in Florida and can be observed with ease from the rockers on the covered porch. Occasionally seeing a small alligator (they are native here folks) or the otter can been witnessed playing on the dock/water. on the dock, under the heavenly skies & is ideal for late night star gazing with a glass of fine wine & your best friend. 2 lounge chairs also for sunbathers. Newly planted, Thick, Dark Green Bamboo, Palm & Cypress trees are prominent, providing that extra layer of desired privacy. Our "Florida Shack in the Back" was a small building that came with the home we purchased in 2013, that we commonly referred to as The Shack. We watched the sun rise & set for 2 years before we finally decided on the desired layout & possible amenities it would include. The final product was more than we imagined. We are pleased to share our home with you & your family during your travels through our beautiful state.

About the host

Hosted by Daniel & SHANNON Lawrence

Host profile image
Dan & Shannon have been best friends for many years. Dan, born in 1961; grew up in Newburg, NY & graduated from Marlboro HS. His family still resides in the same location & offers a "pick your own" style of farming, Lawrence Farms Orchard. Dan relocated to Florida & became a Specialty Contractor: Fence. Shannon, born in 1970 and is a born & raised Floridian. She grew up in Orlando & graduated in '88 from Apopka HS. She is a permit administrator for her boyfriend's company and a full time host. They currently have 4 dogs. Bella Mae the Great Dane & her sidekick Molly; the French Bull Dog. Then there's Kona (medium) & her dog Girlfriend Mary Jane (tiny dog) will patrol the fence line for intruding squirrels, lizards & the Pizza Delivery men. All dogs are kid friendly & docile...so long as your not a squirrel! We enjoy antiquing across the country, adding all that you see to our property which is all for sale if you like it, speak with the owners.
***You might see the owner, Shannon; chalk painting her latest piece of furniture on the porch, turning it into something it wasn't. You are invited to watch, ask questions & even bring your own piece of furniture to paint along side of her.

Why they chose this property

It's Florida! The sunshine is HOT & consistent! You will all the comforts of home while visiting, from sunscreen to bug spray. Dock, Fishing, Star Gazing at night, Laying in fresh water on a float, Going to our pristine beaches......We've got it all right here! I promise: you will not be disappointed! Our "Florida Shack in the Back" was a small building that came with the home we purchased in 2013. It was basically an unusable building that we commonly referred to as "The Shack".

What makes this property unique

Relatively close to everything & far enough away from the rush of big city life's rat race. Ultra low crime rate. Superb fishing, both in/off-shore! Stuart boasts being "The Sailfish Capital of the World". Mackerel, Snook, Wahoo, Mahi & Cobia are plentiful. Pristine, white sand beaches completely free of towering commercial hotels. Our county buildings code does NOT allow ANY buildings taller than 4 floors. What a nice feeling-knowing there is only ONE, whom is watching over/above you! Orlando is a short 2 hrs, Miami: 1.45 hrs. West Palm Beach International Airport: 45 min. Melbourne International Airport: 1.15 hrs
**no swimming in creek.
