About this property
Luxury Heated Pool Oasis on Canal • Dock, Lanai & Close to Beaches
Welcome to your private Gulf Coast retreat — where indoor-outdoor living, waterfront views, and thoughtful details come together for a truly effortless Florida getaway.
From the moment you arrive, this light-filled, modern home invites you to slow down and enjoy the best of Cape Coral living. Oversized accordion doors open completely to the screened lanai, seamlessly blending indoor and outdoor spaces and creating the perfect flow for relaxing, dining, and spending time together.
🌴 Outdoor Living at Its Best
The heart of the home is the private, heated pool and fully screened lanai, designed for all-day enjoyment. Lounge poolside, fire up the grill, gather around the outdoor seating, or rinse off in the outdoor shower after a swim or beach day. Just beyond the lanai, the canal-front dock is ideal for fishing, wildlife watching, sunset views, or tying up a boat if you bring or rent one locally.
🛏️ Spa-Like Comfort & Flexible Sleeping
The spacious primary suite feels like a personal retreat, featuring a king bed, spa-inspired bathroom, oversized walk-in closet, and direct lanai access through an accordion-style door — perfect for morning coffee or evening breezes.
Two additional guest bedrooms offer comfortable and flexible accommodations, including a queen bedroom and a third bedroom with a queen bed, daybed, and trundle — ideal for families or groups.
🍽️ Designed for Gathering
This home is made for connection. The oversized kitchen features a massive island with seating for up to eight, complemented by a large dining table and additional indoor seating areas. Whether you’re cooking, ordering in, or enjoying a casual breakfast, there’s space for everyone to gather comfortably.
Guests consistently rave about the fully stocked coffee bar, a signature feature that makes mornings easy and enjoyable — complete with multiple coffee options and thoughtful extras.
🏖️ Easy Beach Days, Stress-Free Travel
Flying in or packing light? We’ve thought of everything. Beach chairs, a wagon, coolers, umbrellas, toys, and boogie boards are provided to make beach days effortless. World-famous beaches like Fort Myers Beach, Sanibel Island, and Lovers Key are just 20–30 minutes away, with Siesta Key an easy day trip.

About the host
Hosted by Joe and Caarin Pannkuk
The Pannkuk family calls the Twin Cities home, but their hearts are always drawn back to Cape Coral. They love traveling, spending time together, and savoring life’s little moments as they watch their two daughters grow.
When they’re in town, you’ll often find them shelling on Sanibel’s beaches, taking day trips to Siesta Key or Naples, enjoying Street Corn Pizza at Nice Guys Pizza—or simply relaxing poolside while keeping an eye out for manatees cruising through the canal.
They’ve thoughtfully created this home as a place to slow down, relax, and truly enjoy time together—and they warmly invite you to do the same while making memories of your own.
