About this property

Welcome to Southernmost Inn on Pine Island! Come and enjoy a relaxing stay on the water in our "Reel Suite". Compared to any other Inn in St. James City we can honestly say, "If you had stayed at the Southernmost, you could be fishing already!" Avoid the ten to fifteen-minute boat ride up the canal's "no wake" zones.

Reel is a one-bedroom, one-bathroom suite with a full kitchen so is perfect for a short or long stay. The bathroom has a walk-in shower for easy in and out. Our boat dock is right off the lanai as are the beautiful sunsets over San Carlos Bay. There are charcoal bbq's along the dock and a fish cleaning station available. Slips are available for your own boat or a boat can be arranged as part of your stay, both for additional charge.

There are two full beds in the bedroom and the living room has a sleeper sofa, so 6 can sleep comfortably.

There is a full kitchen with everything you need to enjoy making your own meals, or you can go right next door to The Waterfront restaurant. There are also many other restaurants in the area.

You can sit and sip your coffee and enjoy the water view while sitting in the screened lanai. You will see many forms of Florida wildlife! There is also a small sandy beach a one-minute walk from the property.

Laundry facilities and kayaks are available for an additional fee. Contact us for details!

Great Stay with Beautiful Sunrise Views

My friends and I loved our stay! You can watch the sunrise at a small beach right by the property. Very beautiful! You can also sit on the patio and watch boats go out into the bay from a pier, there were also dolphins and pelicans visiting the waterway. The house was clean and had everything we needed for 3 people. I would 100% stay again. Louise was very easy to communicate with and was really accommodating.

About the host

Hosted by Louise Schie

Louise and David live in Ft Myers near the bridge to Sanibel Island. Louise is a teacher and David is an electrical engineer. Both grew up in Canada near Toronto and lived for the past twenty years in California, moving to Southern Florida last year. David & Louise also own Crescent Island, just south of the Southernmost Inn (also available on VRBO).

Why they chose this property

The Southernmost Inn is by far the closest Inn to deep water (San Carlos Bay) in St James City and perhaps in the whole Matlacha/Pine Island area. When we say "two minutes" we mean two minutes without all the long canals at "no wake" speeds or shallow water to navigate. Southernmost is also right next door to the Waterfront Restaurant, which is a great restaurant with a full bar next door. Also nearby there is a fresh seafood market, grocery, hardware, and other amenities. A small sandy beach is within 1 minute walk. Outside your lanai you will find bbq's and a long dock with slips for your boat (bring your own or rent from us).

What makes this property unique

"Fishing Faster" on the way out, "Beer Faster" on the way in. Great views. Parking at the southernmost part of the Island where parking is at a premium. Laundry facilities. Fish cleaning station. Bicycles and Kayaks available. Nearby sandy beach.
