About this property

Private Pool & Dock Family Fishing Bungalow Retreat Near Shell Point Beach

Welcome to Bear Breezes, your private coastal retreat at Shell Point—an authentic 2-bedroom, 2-bath 1970s beach bungalow with a private pool, boat dock, and Tesla charger. This home blends classic coastal charm with modern comfort, making it ideal for fishing trips, family getaways, and relaxing beach escapes.

Located in one of Florida’s most underrated fishing destinations, you’ll have easy access to productive inshore waters known for redfish, trout, and flounder. The private dock makes early departures and easy returns after a full day on the water.

After your time outdoors, unwind in the private pool—a rare amenity in this area. Whether you’re cooling off after fishing, relaxing poolside, or enjoying a quiet evening swim, the outdoor space is designed for laid-back coastal living.

Inside, the home maintains its original beach bungalow character with a comfortable, welcoming layout. The kitchen is well-equipped for preparing meals, including your catch of the day, and the living spaces are perfect for relaxing after time on the water or at the beach.

The location offers both convenience and natural beauty. Shell Point beach is just a short walk away, ideal for sunset walks, shelling, and quiet Gulf views without crowds. Nearby you’ll find coastal wetlands, wildlife areas, and scenic surroundings that make this part of Florida unique.

Additional features include a Tesla charger and RV hookup pad, making this property a great fit for road-trippers, EV owners, and extended stays.

This home is best suited for two couples or small families looking for a peaceful, easygoing stay. It’s ideal for guests who value fishing, boating, pool time, and quiet beach experiences rather than a busy or party-driven environment.

If you’re looking for a true coastal experience with direct access to fishing and the Gulf—plus the comfort of a private pool and dock—this Shell Point retreat offers a stay that’s both simple and memorable.
