The home was a great choice for my family with children ages 10 (who are good swimmers and comfortable in/around water). The home looks just as it does in the listing photos and was just as we expected. The neighborhood was quiet and those we met in the neighborhood were very friendly. We were delighted to see manatees each day while out kayaking! The water right off the dock is fairly deep compared to some areas and has vegetation at the bottom which attracts wildlife (a good thing) but also makes it not particularly clear (although we didn't mind). You reach clear water areas pretty quickly via kayak. My younger kids loved the giant floating raft/dock! My teen and I had no issue getting kayaks and the floating dock in and out of the water from the dock ourselves. Tips: I would suggest storing food in the refrigerator or in sealed ziplocks to avoid teeny tiny ants finding their way into your snacks (although this is no surprise if you're familiar with living in the south). And double check the check-in/check-out times, we didnt realize there were conflicting check out times listed somewhere, causing some confusion for the cleaners who thought we had checked out, but didn't ever knock or disturb us. (I was unaware they had even arrived and was tidying up, taking my time.) The whole family had very memorable, very enjoyable time, and I can't think of anything this house is missing!

The place is perfect for people who behave noisless and expect this from others.Great home in many ways; everything was new or renovated, e.g. stove, fridge and freezer, dish washer; the stove heats very effectively, e.g. onions got brown fast with temp set to three; we had the impression to be the first renters; the decorations appeared to be done by artists and with love to details; mattresses would be fine for people with back problems; the lanai included a bed for taking a nap after kayaking and was completely screened without gaps; there are various sit on top kayaks and dock beneath the deck allows easy climbing in and out the kayaks. We recommend a guided tour at the kayak rental near the parking lot of the State Park. We enjoyed viewing the sunset from the observation deck at Linda Pederson Park. We highly recommend this place and would like to come back.

We enjoyed our stay at this cute little cottage. It definitely had the feel of a family cottage where you might spend your summer vacation. Nothing fancy but comfortable, cute and homelike. I loved the colors it was decorated in and especially the "wall paper" in the bathroom. We had a great time. The hostess was very communicative and we had zero issues.
