We loved the location, close to everything but in a nice, quiet neighborhood. The heated pool was a plus for sure! We enjoyed our month long stay and would book again, but they are already booked! They have repeat bookings which is why we chose this home and it does not disappoint. Nothing fancy about furnishings so you can be comfortable and the beds were very comfy.

Nice House in North Port

House is a bit older, but in very nice shape and extremely clean. Very nice lanai and pool area with outdoor TV and good view of the canal running along the back of the property. You will get some feathered friends visiting once in a while. New stove, pretty new washer and dryer. Couch with power recliners on each end. Beach chairs supplied, but you may want to bring your own if you have the room to do so.

My husband and I stayed here for two weeks over Christmas and New Years. The house was very comfortable and had everything we needed. A newly renovated kitchen gave plenty of workspace on the island for preparing food. Screened in pool was so nice and relaxing…and had a beautiful, peaceful view of the waterway in back. The owners were great! Always quick to respond to inquiries. All in all, we had a great stay and we wouldn’t hesitate to book this home again.

Tranquil Florida Oasis

The home is like the hosts, welcoming and every tiny detail thought of to make your stay inviting and comfortable. We had a wonderful time. Home is on a tranquil canal with a screened in pool/patio area as well as a spacious well equipped kitchen/dining/entertainment area. the large picture window in the common area was so peaceful to watch all the wildlife and summer storms come in. We BBQ’d, kayaked and visited with immediate family enjoying the pool and all this great place had to offer. This home is immaculate clean and I appreciated the labeled cabinets so we knew where everything was and went back to. Lots of thought and care has been provided to this little oasis. We really enjoyed our stay. Thank you!

This is a very comfortable house in a quiet neighborhood. They have everything you need for a relaxing stay. Owners are very accommodating and helpful. We really enjoyed fishing and kayaking in the canal in back. The layout of the house is great for socializing. It trained most of the time we were here but still managed to use the pool, the grill, the kayaks, and the fishing poles. Lots to do nearby.
