We stayed for 28 nights with our dog. Casita was fully stocked and the fenced yard was great for our dog. The hosts were very accommodating and had great recommendations. Great location for beaches, kayak fishing, dog park and many waterside restaurants. Will definitely be our 1st choice in the future.

We really enjoyed meeting Suzanne, Jim & Charlie! Such great guests and just the kind of responsible dog owners we love to host. We even got to hang out at the dog park together with our doodles. We would love to host them all in the future and look forward to their return to Nokomis, Florida.

Aloha Glen, thanks for the comments about the Casita during your stay. You mentioned the AC could’ve been cooler? The AC unit was just replaced and is brand new. We don’t limit guests use of the thermostat. We are curious if you had trouble setting the thermostat since it is a brand new system. We haven’t had any other comments about issues with it getting cold. We also have lots of extra pillows available in the 2nd bedroom closet and were available to you as well, sorry if you didn’t see them Please know our success in providing a 5 star stay always relies on the guest experience. Key to understanding what the guests needs are lies in effective communication. If we are fortunate enough to host you again, we would love the opportunity to make sure your next stay is perfect. A hui hou, Dale & Stacy
