Waterfront Canal Retreat • Pool, Dock, 10 Min to DTSP • Sleeps 8
Welcome to your private waterfront retreat in St. Petersburg. This newly remodeled canal-front home was designed for relaxing Florida days, sunset views, and unforgettable time on the water.
The highlight of the property is the resort-style backyard. Take a refreshing swim in the sparkling pool, or lounge poolside while watching boats drift by on the canal. As the sun sets, the entire backyard glows with stunning Florida skies. Dine outside with plenty of seating and lighting.
Step down to the private dock, where you can fish right from the backyard, rod holders and chairs included, or launch one of the provided kayaks or paddleboards to explore nearby waterways and the natural beauty of Weedon Island Preserve.
For guests who love adventure, we provide everything you need for a perfect day outdoors:
• Kayaks and paddleboards
• Fishing gear
• Pool floats and towels
Just across the nearby footbridge is a beautiful waterfront park with paths for walking, biking, and skating.
Inside, the home is bright, open, and designed for gathering. The large living area flows into a fully stocked kitchen where friends and family naturally come together.
The kitchen features a gas convection stove perfect for cooking and baking, along with everything you need for a great meal:
• Coffee station
• Air fryer
• Blender
• Full cookware and bakeware
• Dishwasher
• Plenty of dishes and utensils
Whether you're preparing a casual breakfast or a group dinner, everything is at your fingertips.

About the host
Hosted by Jen Brickman
Hello and welcome! We’re so happy you’re considering staying in our home. We are currently on a travel nursing assignment and decided to share the space we love with guests while we’re away. Hosting has become something we genuinely enjoy, especially because we’ve spent years traveling ourselves and understand how meaningful it is to find a place that feels comfortable, relaxing, and thoughtfully prepared.
I’m Jen, a professional marketer and graphic designer who works remotely and manages the listing. I’m always available before, during, and after your stay to ensure everything runs smoothly. Our wonderful co‑host Jocelyn will be your primary point of contact locally and is dedicated to making sure you feel welcomed and cared for.
We take pride in creating an environment that feels like a true home rather than a standard rental. We love coastal living, outdoor time, great food, and meaningful travel experiences — and we’ve designed our space to reflect that same balance of relaxation and enjoyment for our guests.

Why they chose this property
We chose this neighborhood because it offers the perfect balance between peaceful residential living and easy access to the vibrant energy of St. Petersburg and Tampa. It’s a quiet, established area where many families live, and we deeply value maintaining the calm and respectful atmosphere that makes it so special.
Guests often tell us how much they appreciate being able to return from a day of exploring to a serene, tranquil setting. You won’t find late‑night crowds or heavy traffic here — instead, you’ll experience tree‑lined streets, friendly neighbors, and a slower pace that truly allows you to unwind.
One of our favorite features is the nearby bike path that provides a beautiful ride all the way into downtown St. Pete. It’s an incredible way to explore the city while enjoying Florida’s sunshine and scenery. Just over a footbridge, you’ll also find a stunning park offering walking trails, biking paths, pickleball and tennis courts, playgrounds, and outdoor workout areas. A brand‑new YMCA is also just a short walk away, making it easy for guests to stay active during their stay.
Additionally, being on the canal allows quick access to Tampa Bay and some of Florida’s most beautiful natural surroundings — perfect for those who love the water and outdoor adventure.
Because this is a residential neighborhood with many young families, we kindly ask guests to respect quiet hours and the peaceful nature of the community. This helps ensure everyone — guests and neighbors alike — enjoys the environment.

What makes this property unique
What truly sets our home apart is that it is exactly that — our home. This is not a property designed solely as a rental, but a space where we’ve thoughtfully created comfort, functionality, and enjoyment for everyday living.
It’s rare to find a four‑bedroom waterfront home in St. Petersburg that combines spacious indoor living with such an inviting outdoor experience. The backyard is often the highlight for guests — a private, relaxing oasis with water views, a covered porch designed for lounging or dining, and plenty of space to gather, unwind, or simply enjoy the Florida breeze. You'll quickly learn what types of ripples in the canal will show you dolphins, manatees, or snook and other amazing fish.
Inside, you’ll find a fully equipped kitchen with an abundance of helpful tools and gadgets for cooking and entertaining.
We’ve included many of the comforts travelers often wish they had — from beach and water gear to cozy living spaces that make it easy to settle in. There are kayaks and SUPs available to use after signing a waiver.
The overall experience is best described as serene yet active. You can start your morning with coffee on the porch, bike into downtown for brunch or art galleries, spend the afternoon on the water or at the park, and return home to a peaceful, comfortable setting.
We’ve intentionally created a place that supports both relaxation and adventure — and we’re excited to share it with guests who appreciate that same balance.
