Captivating Canal View

The interior was lovely and met the definition of Modern Fish Camp. The cottage was very clean inside and had most everything needed except a can opener which the owner brought as soon as requested. Dishes and glassware were in a corner cabinet not well organized but there were more than enough coffee mugs. The glass enclosed lanai could use a good scrub of the window tracks. Also the shed where the folding outdoor chairs were stored had just old plywood covering the opening where a door once hung. Entry to the house was via an app that might be a challenge for older, non tech savvy renters. Overall we felt we made a good choice in choosing this property despite its few shortcomings.

Amazing!

This little lake cottage was perfect for my family. We were in town for my nieces wedding and Valerie was so sweet. Her home was warm and accommodating and had everything we needed to be happy and comfortable during our stay. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you!

Enjoyed it beginning to end!

We were impressed by the photos of the house and area but were pleasantly surprised to find the house even nicer than those images. The town this property is in, Lake Panasoffkee, is a quiet community, what one might call “The other Florida” free from crowds and traffic. We were completely comfortable during our stay and felt the owners truly had focused on the needs of the renter. It was great having two full baths, a beautiful sunporch, and a well-equipped kitchen. There were many nice touches throughout. One of the other highlights, though, was living right on a canal, immediately adjacent to the lake. We saw more wildlife here than in a national wildlife refuge nearby: anhingas, herons, hawks, ibises and a turtle made their appearances. On several nights, we even heard a barred owl. This is a wonderful, peaceful place for nature observers!

About the host

Hosted by Valerie Bogle

I'm a Florida native, I own a photography studio where I love reminding girls of all ages how beautiful they are. In addition, I love living in Florida! As a kid I spent many vacations going to Lake Panasoffkee to escape our busy while that's been so many years ago - I love that not much has changed there, and it still offers the same relaxing and charming feelings it did so many years ago - and I'm excited to get to offer such enjoyment to others.

Why they chose this property

Like I said..I grew up spending vacations on the Lake, and it feels like home. Somehow it has escaped the commercialization that has happened in so many other cities. Its still a place you can go and feel like you can disconnect from it all - and yet still be close enough that you have those options if you want them.
The house is on a canal - only 1 home from the beautiful lake itself - so you can see it as soon as you drive down the street. You can hear the birds chirping, and even yourself is such a welcome change. I think it offers a chance to get away, enjoy Old Florida, and have a chance to disconnect from all that occupies us on a daily basis. And, its all only a few minutes off the interstate - so is so convenient for so many.

What makes this property unique

Its on the water - so bring your fishing poles, your kayaks, your canoes, etc! Within a few paddles you're in the main body of the lake, which is quite large with plenty of areas to explore!

There's plenty of room to spread out, a nice size kitchen to cook in, and plenty of other excursions to experience nearby.
