About this property
Relaxing Tropical Getaway
Welcome to The Turtle House! Located in Port Charlotte this 3 bed, 2 1/2 bathroom home is perfect for families, friend groups, golfers, beach lovers, & more.
Your "Turtle House" amenities begin with a fenced pool area with lounge chairs, covered patio with outdoor tv, dining area, grill & wet bar. Inside there are two large living areas with Smart TV, couches, & coffee bar.
There are many fantastic beaches close including Manasota, Englewood, Stump Pass Beach, Gasparilla Island & Boca Grande.
The Tampa Rays make the Port Charlotte Sports Complex home for spring training each year.
Choose from over 20 Golf courses that are within 20 miles.
You will find pool & beach items in the shed along with bikes for your use.
We do have security cameras on the exterior only (front and rear) of our home as well as a security doorbell that actively record video and sound. These are located overlooking the front yard, overlooking the backyard dock/canal area, and the ring doorbell. There is also one camera located on the patio wet bar that will be deactivated during guest stays. Guests are welcome to close the privacy cover which turns off the camera as well.
We do not monitor these cameras after you have arrived except for safety purposes only and for ensuring adherence to our occupancy and house rules. Absolutely no cameras are anywhere inside the house. Turning off or manipulating the cameras, WiFi or security system will result in immediate termination of your reservation without refund.
Fireplace is not operational. Please do not attempt to use.
The pool has staining in some areas & may not look sparkling clean. We have plans to update the pool in the future. The pool is not caged. Because of this, the unpredictable Florida weather & our landscaping there may be debris in/around the pool area. Our pool cleaner comes once a week. There is a pool skimmer/net available for your use should you find necessary.
The pool can be heated for an added fee of $15/day (or less depending on season) Pool temperature will vary based on outside air temperature.
The spa is not continuously heated. It can be turned on for a 4 to 5 hour period each day for an additional fee of $10/day. This is done remotely & you will simply need to message us what time you would like to have it turned on. Please be advised that it can take up to one-two+ hours to heat up to temp.
Guests will not have access to the garage.
Florida Critters: Despite our meticulous cleaning practices &our routine pest control efforts bugs &critters are a part of life in Florida. Sometimes mosquitoes, ants, moths, palmetto bugs, spiders, lizards, frogs, etc. like to find their way inside. Help prevent them by closing doors & windows at all times, cleaning up after cooking/eating, keeping food in the fridge, rinsing dishes before putting them in the dishwasher, emptying trash regularly.
No smoking
Absolutely no events, parties, or large gatherings
Must be at least 25 years old to book and must be present at the home for the duration of the stay.
This property has a strict 6-person max occupancy. Please do not exceed the number of guests stated on your reservation at any point during your stay. Additional fees up to $100 per person /per day may be assessed.

About the host
Hosted by Jennifer McIntyre

My husband and I are originally from Michigan but currently reside in Nevada. We have always loved vacationing in Florida!
Why they chose this property
We love this quiet canal front home. The neighborhood is quiet and peaceful, yet close to dining, shopping, and the beach!
What makes this property unique
This property is unique because it is close to everything while feeling far away from it all. No neighbors on either side make this home seem like a little piece of heaven.
