About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Waterfront Getaway, a Boating Paradise

Visualize it this way, you can drop your boat in across the street at the public boat ramp, and store your trailer behind the property and dock your boat steps from our place. Just grab your cooler and sunscreen and head out for a day of fishing or to the sandbar.

Guests have use of the entire house. It’s super convenient to drop in and go!

Waterfront Getaway is a unique Florida guest space and we welcome you and your family. This is a great place to enjoy the west coast of FL.

If you are a sun worshiper, avid fisher person or a paddle board guru, this is the space for you.

Waterfront Getaway is comfortable, cozy and is ready for you and your family to enjoy all Englewood, FL has to offer.

Waterfront Getaway offers trailer/boat parking for up to 25 ft. Overnight docking allowed.

A six minute drive to Englewood Beach, known for pristine waters, pretty shells and a lively night life. The cooler & beach towels are provided, just don't forget the sunscreen.

There are three TV's on the property with an outdoor grill for your use.

Waterfront Getaway assures you that we will continue to offer the same hospitality and accommodations so many guests have written about with renewed mindfulness of mutual safety and well-being.

How about Tarpon? Well maybe not right off the dock but there are lots of snook, redfish and snapper that may find your hook.

Great house , everything is new and very well stocked. Nice fenced in yard for the dogs in the front and patio in the back for the humans. On the canal, next door to the Freedom boat club so very convenient for boaters. Tiki bar on the bay only a 5 minute walk. Many good restaurants close by. Heather was very helpful and nice to work with.
