Group of friends had wonderful 8 days. We hired a boat and kept it on the dock, heading out by boat for lunch every day followed by hot tub and pool and then dinner at the house. The house was clean and well equipped and Todd was an excellent host. Would definitely go back again. We spent one afternoon in Sarasota and one in St Petersberg - both were easy drives. Great value for a large waterfront property.

If you want a relaxing stay with expansive waterviews, look no further! My husband and I along with his sister and daughter stayed at this home for a long weekend and had a great time. Home is spacious and well stocked so you don't need to run to grocery store to buy everything like others I have stayed at. Interior decoration is a little out of date but it really doesn't matter as you won't spend time inside at all - not with the beautiful lanai area to enjoy. Highly recommend!

We've been coming to the area for 20+ years to be close to family who live locally and found this to be amongst the very best properties that we've ever rented. Communication with the owners before, during and after the stay was stellar with immediate responses on all topics and quick resolution of any issues (not to suggest that there were any major 'issues' - there were not). The house is lovely and very well equipped with everything you need in every area - kitchen, bedrooms, bath, and even outside with kayaks, bikes, fishing equipment, etc. which are things we've had to rent separately in previous years. I hosted Christmas Eve dinner for my extended family and had everything I needed for prep and serving. The pool area is amazing and even in colder weather than we would have liked for a Florida visit, we were able to keep the pool and hot tub at an acceptable temperature, which has been a challenge with previous rentals. The house is beautiful inside and out - very highly recommend - unless you want it for the same weeks as our next stay ;)

You've seen the pictures! What else is there to say?! We wanted to find a home we didn't want to leave for a week so we could all recharge and reconnect before the new school year started...and we found it. The hosts were terrific as well!

We had a great time! The home is huge, and would be wonderful for a larger group or family. The pool is amazing, and the fire pit and fire tower feature really made it! We happened to be there in the middle of a heat wave, so we didn’t utilize it as much as we would have liked, but would love to return in a cooler time. The grounds were fabulous, with incredible plants, and we enjoyed the solitude to just relax, read and laze around. I would highly recommend this sweet home!

The pool and hot tub are even more impressive in person. It’s a great space to get enjoy with family and friends. The yard is very large and fenced in too. The grill and tv outside were also a plus! The inside of the house comes with everything you could imagine and more. The only thing I would say is if you are planning to bring a boat I would consider the size first. Understand most people probably wouldn’t be bringing a boat. But the owners were very nice and allowed us to rent their boat lift. The tide, which they did advise us the day of check in, can be too low to use the boat at certain times but we were able to make it work. The boat ramp was 10 mins away (closes during certain hours), and the driveway isn’t optimal for maneuvering a boat trailer. Things that would have been helpful to know prior but again, if you aren’t brining a large boat it wouldn’t be a problem. Just a heads up for anyone that may be considering it. The owners were very kind and responsive. If you’re looking to enjoy the area and a great pool days I would not hesitate to book this place!

Beautiful view of the bay! Pool was amazing. We kayaked in the bay with dolphins and manatees and ride the bikes around the island. The house is large and very clean. I couldn’t ask for better communication from the owners.
