Amazing Property in St. James City

We stayed here over my son's spring break to do some fishing on Pine Island. Overall, our stay was amazing. I would definitely stay here again and will most likely book another vacation here. The house was very clean with new furniture and bedding. The pool, dock, and firepit were amazing. Great location, quiet but close to several restaurants that would cook the fish we caught. Only issue which is small and hopefully resolved. The propane on the gas grill was empty. contacted the management company to resolve it. I tried calling, left a message, and texted and they eventually responded to my text advising me to take to a local store to have it filled. Again, not a big issue but I feel it could have been handled better on their part. Again, overall it was a great stay and look forward to returning.

Perfect Location

Overall we had a great stay. We didn’t know much about the area, but quickly found there is not a better spot for boating. 3 minute boat ride out to the water. The house and pool area were extremely clean. We had an issue with the pool heater that was resolved. The boat lift, trailer parking and kayaks were great. Plan to bring your own firewood. The beds are old (squeaky and feel every movement), but I understand the new owner will be renovating. Listing and information from owner and local contact was inaccurate and poor communication. They said they had beach towels, but had only 4 that were in sad shape. The bath towels (1 per person) were tattered and discolored. Easy fixes. The pool area desperately needs a cage. We couldn’t sit outside at night because nothing stopped them. In the end, a great trip because we loved the space and location so much!

Cute little getaway on the canal

This was a perfect getaway for a short girls' weekend. The house is small but was perfect for 3 of us. The pool was great and we enjoyed the firepit at night. The location on the canal was lovely and we enjoyed watching the manatees swim around. St. James is a low key, relaxing town and we enjoyed our trips to Matlacha for delicious food too.
