Perfect spot for families

My family had a great time at Jim and Judy’s home. There was more than enough space for us and two kids ages 5 & 8. The beach is about a 2 minute walk which we enjoyed in the mornings and the heated pool in the afternoons. The area is still recovering from hurricane damage but this house is fully ready and stocked!

Great family property

We loved everything about this property. The house was stocked with anything you may need for a comfortable stay. We cooked all but 1 meal at the house and had every kitchen item we needed. Also the amount of beach accessories, fishing stuff, books and games was amazing. The walk to the beach and fishing dock was a very doable distance for all of us. We definitely hope to return to this property again soon. Jim and Judy were very quick to respond to any question we had.

Pool was great!

Convenient area, about a 3 min walk to the beach and a 3-10 minute drive to any store or restaurant we needed. It is possible to drive across to the gate for the beach access and unload if you want to take an umbrella, chairs, cooler, etc. and have someone drive the vehicle back and walk across. The dock is also very nice and only a quick minute drive/walk. We were able to park there and take our poles, etc. We had 3 children in our group and the pool was a lifesaver! Perfect size for cooling off in the afternoon.

Nice, Relaxing Stay!

My family and I enjoyed our time. The property owners were very responsive and communicated with us as needed. Location to the bay and beach were a short walk away. The pool was refreshing during the hot afternoons! A few updates to the pool area and guest rooms would make this perfect. I recommend this property to a family or couples wanting a relaxing beach vacation.

Family Vacation

Overall this property is really great- especially if you have a large family with adults and older children. It was especially nice to have a private pool right outside the door! We had access to an abundance of beach chairs, umbrellas, etc. which was much appreciated. Really, my only complaint is the distance to the beach. It isn’t a *far* walk but I wouldn’t consider it a short one- certainly not a convenient one if you left something behind. When my children were small this distance would have been a deal breaker for me, however with adults and older children it is manageable and we made the trip several times a day. The house was well stocked with everything we needed and there was plenty of space for all of us (4 adults, 3 kids). The beach wasn’t crowded and it was a nice, quiet vacation that we all enjoyed!

The property is perfect for family and has EVERYTHING you need for a Florida vacation! The open living room/kitchen/dining area so spacious. The pool outside the kitchen is a so perfect for a day at home instead of the beach. And just a short walk to beach and AWESOME fishing dock.

Everything you need for a beautiful relaxing vacation, is exactly what you get with this gorgeous home. The short walk to the beach everyday, was our favorite. The pool was so refreshing after a hot day. The home is as listed, plenty of room for a family, and very comfortable for us as a couple. We will definitely return.

Great House, Great Host

Judy and Jim will restore your faith in hosts if it is lost! Great home with all the amenities needed. It truly felt like we were staying in a home instead of a rental. From the bike tires being pumped to the pool heater on, this place was ready to enjoy the moment we turned the key. Easy access to the beach and pier, our family enjoyed it all.

Great beach house with access to the best beach!

This house is in the perfect location-so close to the beach and the dock to Lemon Bay for fishing-yet tucked in so you still have privacy. Shopping, groceries, golfing, and restaurants are all close by as well. The semi private beach was not crowded at all which was the best! We had plenty of room in the house for our family of 5 plus 2 more family members that came to visit for a few days. The house had all the essentials. The screened in pool was amazing and definitely a hit with the kids. The owners were pleasant and prompt at responding to all of my questions both before booking and after. We had a great time and would definitely come back!

Jim and Judy were wonderful. Judy walked my kids to both beaches so we would know the way. Jim was telling me about future improvements. It'll be even nicer next year. My family found lots of shark teeth and some sea glass and shells. Do these nice hosts a favor and leave the teeth in the porch.

Semi-Private beach with breathtaking sunsets

The hosts are wonderful and accommodating. Description and photos of the beach house are accurate. Clean, smells nice, very roomy and comfortable beds. Full kitchen and also an outside grill. Nice screened in pool to enjoy if you’re not relaxing on the beach. We were able to visit the beach a few times a day since it is located just across the street. The beach is not crowded, and the people are very friendly. Good restaurants and shops nearby.

Perfect beach and chill house

The house is spread out which allows the family to be together but not driving each other crazy. The pool is great and perfect for large family. I love the location of the home as it is a short walk to the beach and dock on the river. We had no complaints from anyone in the family. Would recommend this home and would love to come again.
