    Well appointed home in a good location. Close to local spots and very clean. Nice having the canal out back to kayak on... and kayaks available to use. Home was very comfortable. Would come back again!

    This was our second time staying at this location. The property is clean and well maintained, the owner is responsive to questions, and the location is great!

    The house was neat as could be upon check in and everything was just as described. We launched our boat at the ramp and brought it back to tie up at the dock which made it very convenient for trips to the gulf and the springs. Beds are very comfortable and kitchen well stocked. Host was quick to respond to inquiries. Our group was 4 adults over 60 for the first 3 nights. Friends left and children came in on Tuesday which made us 6 adults and 2 boys age 3. The open floor plan is spacious and the two and a half baths were a definite plus. We would stay here again. Owner has no control over the next bit, but renters should be aware that, next door, folks are staying in a camper on weekends and running a generator 24 hours. There is also new construction right across the canal. Work didn’t begin before 8 am and was silent on Sunday. This did not interfere with our enjoyment of the home and we would recommend to family and friends. Over all a nearly perfect week!

    We come down and fish every year about this time. This house was perfect for us. Communication with the homeowner could not have been better. We would definitely book it again

    We loved staying at this home! Comfortable beds, well stocked kitchen ( perfect size coffee mugs!) and the access to the water was great. Everything was clearly labeled and easy to follow directions were in the house. It all felt brand new. Having the dock and being able to use the kayaks was the icing on the cake! The host was responsive and available for questions. Would absolutely stay here again!.

    Location of the house can be a bit tricky to find but is worth the effort. The property is the nicest home on the street and is exactly as shown on the VRBO website. The house is very clean and has plenty of cookware, glasses, etc. Our family of 8 had ample room to stretch out and the dining area easily seated all of us. Floyd, the owner, is very responsive to requests for information and help and was easy to reach.

    We have allergies to animals. This property was listed as pet free and was just that. Other places we've stayed claim to be pet free but are not. The house was impeccably clean.
