You may choose to lounge on the outdoor furniture while watching the family fish or play outdoor games on the landscaped back yard space. A wonderful new cement border of decking is perfect for fishing off your own pier. Bring your boat and tie off in the slip.Two kayaks are provided for a relaxing canal cruise while catching your own fish dinner. Overlook the canal while dining and sipping on a cool beverage or fishing off the amazing new concrete decking.

We enjoyed our time here very much. Everyone had a blast fishing and kayaking up and down the canals. Kitchen was well stocked, which I love because we always do home cooked meals even when on vacation. Hostess was also very attentive and helpful. Would definitely stay again.

Spring Break get away

This property was a great size for our family of 4, plus a guest and our dog. The multiple outdoor decks were a big plus, as was the large yard for the pet. We were able to fish right from the back yard, but it is definitely more of a canal fishing experience. Boat access is very easy. From living room to bedroom to kitchen, the interior was very comfortable. The climate control was powerful and updated. When we first arrived, there was a little issue with the internet, however, the host was extremely responsive and the issue was immediately resolved. Would stay here again.

Thanksgiving trip

The house is in a cute neighborhood and it has plenty of parking. The outside area has a ping pong table and seating but it was a bit chilly and rained during our trip so we didn’t spend a ton of time under there sitting! The first deck is nice and painting but again the weather didn’t cooperate with us. The upper deck is in need of some repairs and we didn’t venture up there. The updates are nice but the house is in need of a good deep cleaning. There is dust on the ceiling above the stove, on the baseboards, under the beds. There were dead bugs in the corners when we arrived. The house had a bit of a damp feeling to it. Maybe we caught it on an off time, I’m not sure.

This is our second stay in this house. The house is spacious, lots of room with bunk beds and fully stocked kitchen. The house was clean and had everything we needed. Just a short drive to the beach, but there is plenty to do on the canal with paddle board and kayaks. You will love this place!

Very fun house!

First of all Kathy is amazing, she is very responsive with any information you might need. The house was exactly as it was presented in the listing. We went with our daughter and her family, the grandkids were never board (which is a tall feet for kids age 6,10,and 13 ) the games at the house were so much fun! We spent a lot of time kayaking in the canals with the kayaks and paddle boards provided at the house. The only negatives would be there are not enough towels for a large group with small kids (we did have the ability to wash them in the washer and dryer provided) and the beds were a little hard for our taste but not awful. Over all the positives far out weighed the negatives and we would definitely stay here again.

Smaller than expected. Yard area was nice but mosquitoes were awful so we couldn’t sit outdoors at all. Canal was full of trash. Some dishes were put in cabinets dirty. Kitchen was Adequately stocked. Door knobs need tightened. Price per night is high for this accommodation.
