This is a great place to stay. The 2 porches, one enclosed and one screened, right on the canal were my favorite spots. The house is clean and very well appointed. I lived on this island for 10 years and know the struggles from weather(hurricanes), trying to keep places together and repaired. This owner has done an excellent job. Would always consider staying here again on our future trips to see old friends.

Matlacha fishing

It was nice. Owner did a nice job with their home understanding the major Hurricane that went through this little village one year ago. The devastation in and around the community was very apparent. We have been visiting this are for 40+ years so it was a nice return.
