Such a great family-friendly house. We were able to fish off of the back pier & there was lots of shaded areas & great seating outside - both upstairs & downstairs. There were games & puzzles for the kids & WiFi access. The host responded quickly to messages. Great stay overall - really enjoyed being close to the beach but not having to deal with all of the sand like you would if you were staying on the beach.

The canal house is so cute, clean and comfortable! Love the decor too! We celebrated our son’s birthday weekend there and it was the perfect size for our family to cook in the kitchen and eat together outside on the deck, overlooking the water! We also loved hanging out downstairs, in the hammock and swings, so peaceful! We brought 2 skiff boats and it was a nice location to fish the canal and easily get out into the intercoastal to fish. We caught a ton and our son made us blackened fish tacos one day for lunch! We had a great time and would definitely stay here again! Lori, the host, was very responsive, friendly and accommodating!! Nice trip!!

A wonderful coastal stay! The house was spotless and well-stocked, the bed was comfortable, and the canal views were breathtaking. The location is super close to local restaurants and the beach. We have no complaints and are already planning to stay here again before the summer ends!
