If the outdoor temp is above 98…

Location was great! In cooler parts of the year, it would be idyllic! Too hot outside - the AC in the unit can’t keep up!

Clean, well-equipped home in a good location

This home was the perfect size for our family of six (kids shared bedrooms and queen beds). The kitchens and bathrooms were fully stocked and everything was very clean (felt very much like a home versus a vacation rental). We were comfortable and had a wonderful time - pool toys and bicycles would be an awesome addition.

I found the property acceptable, at best. There were good things like being stocked with every possible kitchen appliance one might need. The pool was quite nice. However the furniture was dark, heavy, very well-worn and not a Florida look. The beds were very, very uncomfortable, two having a slab of foam on top of a sort of mattress. Only one bed was okay but very high and not real easy for my short friend to navigate. The house is in disrepair though it looks like work is being done. But it's not a good look. Screen doors slammed shut off the pool area. The internet went out on Monday and not restored until Friday. Very inconvenient. I might choose this location again but it would not be a first choice.

Great stay!

The home was very clean and spacious with a beautiful view of the canal. We enjoyed watching the dolphins and listening to the birds as we sipped our morning coffee. Thanks for sharing your home with us!

Consider the heat!

The property itself was nice, but the AC unit was woefully inadequate. The inside temp of the house did not go below 80 during daylight hours. If you are looking for a place during the heat of the summer, consider other options before here.

Worth it!

Property was great for our small family everyone had their own space. Check in was 4pm and they were not done cleaning and we had to stand outside and wait for 1/2 an hour with a car full of grocery's after a very long travel day. We would for sure choose this house again! The pool and pool table were great for our family!

The location is the best part of the property. We loved being on the canal, we loved being minutes away from Fisherman Village. The kids enjoyed the pool, fishing and playing pool. The beds were comfortable and everything was clean.

Great home, quiet location

We rented this home for our family vacation (2 adults, 1 tween). We do not enjoy staying at hotels as we enjoy more privacy and space. This was perfect! The neighborhood was very quiet (even over the 4th of july) and the house had everything we could need. It's a short drive from the airport and close to restaurants, grocery store, etc. We would definitely stay again and highly recommend.

So inviting!

The layout of the home coupled with its location made it an ideal place for us to stay. The floor plan makes this an inviting place to stay. The neighbors were very friendly, the street decorated for Christmas. The huge kitchen/great room allowed us to have our adult children join us for dinner and game nigh. Florida had a cold spell, so we were unable to enjoy the pool.
