With the exception of a few very minor problems, we really enjoyed our stay at this beautiful rental home, It was close enough to everything we set out to do or see during our stay here. We would highly recommend this vacation rental for anyone who just wants some great rest and relaxation. We will definately rent this property again in the very near future.

This house has some very positive features but, unfortunately, they were offset by some significant problems. First the positive: 1. It's a relatively new house with an impressive layout and design which is tastefully furnished. 2. The view of the lake is delightful. 3. The house is in an area of Cape Coral which is not "wall-to-wall" houses; but rather has a large amount of undeveloped land. However, the problems, at least for us. were significant. 1. For the first week we were there the water had a nauseating smell. Since we have rented other houses in Cape Coral we were not surprised by the awful smell. However, the other houses' water treatment systems eliminated the odor and any associated taste. We immediately contacted the owner who said she would take care of the problem. After waiting a week, during which we used bottled water for everything, we contacted the water treatment company and quickly arranged for the system to have the maintenance that had been neglected, which corrected the problem. 2. There is no outside keypad or garage door opener so the door can only be opened from inside. In the two months we rented the situation was not corrected. 3. The slider from the living room to the lanai has a broken lock so a wooden bar has to be placed in the door track to secure the door. The lock was not repaired during our stay. 4. Although there were five smoke detectors only two appeared to be functional; the other three were just empty shells. This is a fire safety concern. 5. There were many examples of deferred repairs including the microwave handle which was taped on, a doorknob (lever) which was hanging off, a section of bath partition which was crudely repaired and unpainted and a bedroom end table with no drawer pulls. 6. The large lanai umbrella, which provides the only shade, was damaged and unusable since when it was fully opened it was only 3.5 feet above the lanai surface. 7. At the end of our stay the terrible water smell returned since the water treatment system was again in need of maintenance. In our opinion the owner needs to resolve these problems in order to justify the booking rate. We advise prospective renters to ask if these problems have been corrected. It was clear to us that the owner needs a local property manager. One final comment; since the owner does not live in the US a 3% foreign transaction fee is charged to all credit card payments as well as the security deposit refund. That cost us an extra $200.

This is a very lovely house. The pictures are just like the house. I found it clean and my family enjoyed it. Especially the pool. Which is also clean and big.

The only thing is a little far from beaches .

I don’t usually write negative reviews but this time I have to! We stayed here for a long weekend (3 nights) and I agree with the previous review, when she mentions that the house was not rental ready. The owner was very responsive when making the reservation and provided all the details to get to the house. However, when we got there, the house was NOT CLEAN! All toilets had urine (and #2) stains, there was dental floss in one of the bathrooms and toothpaste stains on both sinks. Regarding the kitchen, the refrigerator was not clean, there were some dishes on the counter (don’t know if clean or not). The tableware is plastic or melamine. There was some clothe on the dryer, again not sure if clean or not. As soon as we saw the condition of the house, I sent an email to the owner with some pictures, mainly from the toilets that were disgusting, there was NO response at all. Not even an apology for the inconvenience! We were already there after a long drive, so we had to buy lot of Clorox and disinfecting wipes, gloves, disposable utensils, plates and cups. Towels and sheets, since we were not sure if they were clean ( thank goodness there is Walmart close by). If you plan to rent this house, come prepared to clean it yourself and on top of that to get charged a very high cleaning fee!!.

Sorry, but this was not a good fit. We had talked to the owner of this property (who lives in Canada) several times before we committed, and she did a good job on selling it. This property is getting premium price, but fell very short of the expectations. We have rented in SW Florida for 15 years and this experience has not been a positive due to the many inconveniences and items in need of repair. I had taken photos of everything upon arrival to ensure my damage deposit would be reimbursed at the end of our contract. There is no pool heater…. The master shower was not useable when we arrived Both bathrooms had toilets that ran constantly. (My husband fixed both the shower and toilets.) There are no dressers in any of the bedrooms and it is difficult to live out of a suitcase for a month. One of the bedrooms did not even have a clothes pole to hang clothes on. The second bathroom is not caulked properly and water is going behind the wall – mold. The kitchen was not renter ready. Food from previous renters completely filled the cupboards and pantry. Not all windows had blinds on them and the ones that did, were broken. The dishwasher did not clean the dishes. The handle on the microwave had to be taped to stay on. The washing machine had mold in it. The Screen doors on the pool lanai have no locks. The patio outside the lanai is in total disrepair. The kitchen lacks pizza cutter, can opener, storage containers, etc. Damage to doors and walls that have not been repaired. Location… to far away from the beaches. I could go on and on. This property needs an on site manager. Phone calls to and from Canada to get problems resolved were not adequate.

We enjoyed our stay at this property. The house is in a decent location- not far from beaches, shopping, and many other fun excursions. The house was roomy, clean, and most of all private and at the right price.

The home was lovely. Too big for two people. Only thing it was too far from the beach.

The house is just as shown in the picture and has everything you need for a comfortable stay. The only downside is the distance from the beach, the closest beach is 30 minutes away and the purpose of our trip was to go to a beach house or at least have a really close beach, our fault for not researching enough.

It was a beautiful spacious home that was clean and well maintained. There was a broken screen in the pool cage upon our arrival and the owners had it fixed right away. We would love to stay in this house every time we come to florida.
