Great
Rod met us and showed us around the house and property. He was also very helpful on advising us on places to go and good restaurants. The house was very well kept and has an amazing scenery from the dock. Would book his place again.

They canceled at the last moment
I booked this trip in January for a stay beginning 6/21. On 6/19 I was canceled and it was due to the A/C going out. I have lived in Florida my whole life and A/C businesses are everywhere. All units, all parts can be found and installed in a day. I was given alternate postings, but not a one was anywhere near water. Not comparable at all. Finding nothing last minute, I switched to AB&B and was instantly booked in another place which turned out to be better overall. Vrbo will not be used again in any of my future bookings. Vrbo offered nothing to compensate the inconvenience. very bad experience.

Little bit of Everything
Fishing, relaxing, and watching nature unfold for the day, right where you stay. Crystal clear rivers and lush gardens nearby, along with miles of hiking and biking trails await all guests.

We loved our stay at The Fisherman’s Retreat
This house is beautiful and so accommodating! My husband was so happy to hang out on the dock and fish all day. We enjoyed the company of all the wildlife, including the resident gator. The layout of the house is built for entertaining guests with many amenities. The beds and pillows are extremely comfortable!! The home owners were very easy to reach through text, they are super sweet and great hosts. We will be back!
