Waterfront Getaway, a Boating Paradise
About this house rental
Visualize it this way, you can drop your boat in across the street at the public boat ramp, and store your trailer behind the property and dock your boat steps from our place. Just grab your cooler and sunscreen and head out for a day of fishing or to the sandbar. Guests have use of the entire house. It’s super convenient to drop in and go! Waterfront Getaway is a unique Florida guest space and we welcome you and your family. This is a great place to enjoy the west coast of FL. If you are a sun worshiper, avid fisher person or a paddle board guru, this is the space for you. Waterfront Getaway is comfortable, cozy and is ready for you and your family to enjoy all Englewood, FL has to offer. Waterfront Getaway offers trailer/boat parking for up to 25 ft. Overnight docking allowed. A six minute drive to Englewood Beach, known for pristine waters, pretty shells and a lively night life. The cooler & beach towels are provided, just don't forget the sunscreen. There are three TV's on the property with an outdoor grill for your use. Waterfront Getaway assures you that we will continue to offer the same hospitality and accommodations so many guests have written about with renewed mindfulness of mutual safety and well-being. How about Tarpon? Well maybe not right off the dock but there are lots of snook, redfish and snapper that may find your hook.

The house wad clean and neat and we had plenty of room for our boat trailer. We had our boat right at the house and just minutes until we were out on the IWC! Heather was awesome and any questions were answered within minutes. Great location to everything you could want!

This was our first time to Englewood and this property was very clean and very accommodating! We brought our boat and was easy to dock our boat and plenty of room for boat trailer and the boat ramp was right across the street which made it very nice! The hosts are awesome and easy to communicate with! We will definitely be back!

Words do not describe the effort of the host they were amazing and the house was perfect I have been to a lot of Vrbo over the years and by far this is the best one with the best customer service I’ve ever had. Thank you again for a great house and a even better birthday experience then I could ask for

We had the best stay at “pirates haunt”. It was super clean and comfortable. Heather and Jaqui were very accommodating and quick to respond to any questions or concerns. We absolutely will stay there again the next time we travel in the area.

We were initially concerned by the property location being adjacent to a busy highway, but traffic dropped off rapidly in the evening, so it wasn't a problem for us. Would have liked more green space at the property, but there is a sizeable park within a hundred yards or so where we could walk our dog. Having said this, I would give extra stars for the cleanliness of the property, ease of check-in, and ease of communicating with the property manager as well as her friendliness and willingness to accommodate us. We would stay here again in a heartbeat!

Great place to stay especially for boaters!
The house was roomy and clean! If you have a small boat this is a great location, the water was a little shallow getting in and out to lemon bay but nothing too bad for a 24 ft bay boat. Heather was a great host, especially when we accidentally locked ourselves out of the house at 10:45 pm. She came to our rescue right away! We’ll be back soon!

We cannot thank Heather enough for being a great host. She provided great communication prior to our arrival.
The house is exactly as photographed. Right by the boat launch, near restaurants, grocery stores and easy drive to the beaches.
The house is on a main road, so expect some traffic noise, but we did not feel it was any inconvenience.
We hope to be back and stay at pirates haunt again!

I just finished a 4 day weekend at the "Pirate Haunt". My family and I had a great time and recommend this for any angler looking for a great spot to park a boat with access the bay, marinas and a short jump through Stump Pass to the Gulf. The fishing was tough, due to the water temps, but we found them and had an amazing stay. Thanks to Heather for all the communication prior to our arrival and we look forward to booking this one again.
