It was a great stay! House was very clean and had everything we needed! Only suggestion would be to label all of the light switches, there are many.

Our multi-generational family enjoyed a week at this home. We drove from East Coast of Florida to enjoy the West Coast beaches because they never disappoint. This house was perfect for our group of 8. It’s decorated nicely. There was plenty of room for our group and everyone had space to relax. House is well equipped with all the basics and then some. (No beach equipment and e count figure out the TVs) The beach wasn’t as close as we expected but still amazing and most of the activities we did were at least a 30 min. drive. The area is beautiful and we enjoyed watching all the boats go by in the backyard. My teenagers liked fishing off the back of the house but were told to stay only in our yard so they ended up just swimming in the awesome pool. Owners were very communicative and prompt. Highly recommended for a relaxing family getaway.

Beautiful Home

We stayed in the house for 6 weeks. We found it as advertised. It was well equipped and supplied for a short or long term stay. The local host Michele was very responsive. We would happily stay there again if the opportunity presents itself.

Beautiful stay on the canal

Very spacious, beautiful home. A few things needed attention after we arrived, and our host was responsive and very attentive. We loved the direct access on the canal and the catch and release fishing was plentiful!
