This is one of three EXPLORERS VACATION CLUB rentals on the property.
Welcome to my little slice of paradise in Jupiter, Florida. I’ve been a proud resident here for over 25 years, but my journey in hospitality began much earlier—back in Cooperstown, NY, where I grew up in a Victorian Italianate home built during President Lincoln’s time. My parents ran it as a summer tourist home, and that’s where I first learned the art of welcoming guests and creating memorable stays.
I’m an author and retired publisher, now fully devoted to maintaining this unique property and curating experiences through my Explorers Vacation Club. The club includes two distinctive retreats: a 64' Gibson Motor Yacht docked on the water and a cozy 28' Thor Motorhome nestled on the grounds. Each space offers its own flavor of adventure, comfort, and charm.
I take pride in blending history, creativity, and hands-on care into everything I do—from the way the spaces are designed to the personal touches that make your stay special. Whether you're here to relax, explore, or simply enjoy the Florida sunshine, I’m here to ensure your visit is smooth, inspiring, and unforgettable.
