This is our second stay here. We loved the first stay in ‘21 and we loved the second stay in ‘23. It’s a perfect location as you are steps from the beach. It’s easy to access all the great things Manasota and Englewood have to offer as well

Restful oasis for nature-lovers

Such a wonderful stay. Our first morning there we woke up to watching two baby turtles hatch. Francine was a wonderful host and provided much more than I expected- from beach towels to sunscreen. It felt like home. We will definitely be back!

Great relaxing time

2nd time staying here love the location. The storm took the walking beach away, but we knew it was going to happen, so we just went up to Blind Pass and my wife hit the jackpot of shelling and shark teeth. The owners are great and communication with them is always easy as a phone call.
