Host was very welcoming and replied promptly. I had an issue with accessing the home and he answered and got me in within a few minutes. The home is nicer than it is advertised. Very well furnished and well stocked. The location is perfect for exploring the Everglades.

Super cool house, very authentic, well kept and unique to the area - walking distance to a few cool spots such as the bait shop / cafe, a park and Rod and Gun. Fully stocked with helpful supplies (toiletries, ziploc bags, coffee etc). Worth noting the house is dog friendly so if you are allergic or sensitive to hair, take note. Also, the top bunk of the bunkbed is not really usable - there is i no safe ladder or stairs to access it. Just noting as I know bed configurations are important for rental homes. Otherwise, really awesome house.

This place is an absolute gem! We come down and stay in Everglades City quite a bit and this is hands down our favorite place.Old style Cracker House with modern upgrades…(You will fall in love with the shower!)We also cook our own catch and the kitchen and cookware were amazing, all high quality! Super relaxing drinking coffee on the screened in porch in the morning!
