This was our third year vacationing here, and as usual, we had a relaxing and great time. There was so much marine life there. The fishing is great. Two years in a row, we have seen huge manatees passing by. The place always feels bigger than you would first expect. The screened porch takes up the length of the house and has a great view of the ocean, which is so relaxing. The only issue I had this year, was not the owners fault, but rather those that stayed there before us. The guests who stayed before us, did not follow the cleaning instructions the owners instructed in the check-out instructions. Over all though, we still had a great time!

The location on the water is great. Sunsets are directly behind the house and could not be better. Lagoon blocks boat wake or waves on a windy day but is very tricky to enter, especially on a windy day. I would not try with a boat larger than 25 ft. We had a person on each side and front and back to keep from hitting the walls during entry and exit. The next door neighbor is going to watch you like a hawk when you come and go EVERY TIME. The house is clean but there were some dirty dishes in the cabinets including pans not washed so we spent the first half day cleaning. Outside of house could use some cleanup of old ladders, grills, fishing equipment and a little litter. However, would recommend depending on your needs.

Beautiful sunset, nice location for fishing. Clean but heavily dated property. Walkway around lagoon and steps are very slippery, use caution.
