Great stay for me and my father
Cute place in a quiet neighborhood right off a canal to get the perfect Florida experience. Great location, close to food and things to do. The house was spacious with a large backyard. I would highly recommend if you are ever vacationing in the area.

Natural aquarium
The outside is a work in progress. The inside is comfortable and beautifully clean, if sparsely furnished and equipped. The spring run in the back yard is the real attraction--water is like a panel opane of glass, and full of wildlife. We loved it
