Bay Chalet -Pool, Fish Boat Dock, Beaches, Gulf Coast & ICW from central locale!

Great host, very communicative. All the modern amenities you could need. Great, relaxing location. Fishing was great right at the property!

We loved our stay at the Bay Chalet. The open layout was great to relax, the outdoor patio was a must to enjoy the outdoors at night. House was close to everything we wanted to explore. House is on a dead end road so it was quiet. Stuart made sure all our needs were met. Pool was a little cold due to the season, but the kids liked it regardless. Would definitely stay there when back in the area.

Very quiet and relaxing owner was very helpful and accommodating would stay again

House was perfect for us! This was our first time renting a house. So much better than a hotel!!! Kids were able to fish every morning from the backyard. This house is located on a quiet street. Very clean and Stuart was very helpful - just a text away if we needed anything!!

I really great space that had everything we needed or wanted. It is perfectly set-up for guests and the furnishings are clean and clear without a lot of personal items so its easy to feel like it is your own. Stuart lives over the garage and was there most of the time we were, but he didn't bother us, and when we did have a minor BBQ problem he fixed it within hours.

The family and I drove down from Pittsburgh for some R & R. Stuart’s place is very clean and has everything you need. The pool was awesome and I couldn’t keep my kids off the boat dock. Very quiet dead end street. Stuart is very accessible if you need anything (not that you really should). We would definitely stay here again The Kellingtons

Stuart’s home offers the best of all worlds, be the that a beach, pool or sightseeing holiday. Having a base with a pool in such a beautiful tranquil setting that gets the sun all day was fantastic after returning from exploring the area on our bikes. The Legacy Trail cycle route is 2 mins from the house and offers a great easy riding artery from which you can safely cycle to all parts of Venice and the beach. If Stuart is around he can offer advice on how to find anything you wish to do during your stay. He was very friendly and approachable in all the dealings we had. The area has lots of restaurants within a ten min drive. If you like good flavours combined with value for money try Bodrum restaurant in Venice, it’s fantastic. If self catering is preferred there is a huge Pulix five minutes way and the house has everything you need for cooking, including a big gas BBQ. We loved the place and the area.

We had a great week at The Bay Chalet. It had a great kitchen with everything we needed to cook all week, a clear beautiful pool, comfortable beds, and the channel kept our boys busy fishing with their new cast net. They caught a snook, two mystery fish, lots of mullet and a few catfish. (They used a pole too.) Stuart is a wonderful, thoughtful host and has a lovely home anyone would enjoy. Our family of five was very comfortable. Nokomis was a great place to vacation. Close to Venice and abot 35 minutes to Sarasota. We loved the north Jetty park and beach.

The house was very clean and came equipped with all the basics that one might need. The setting was very nice on a little inlet that was nice and quiet. It is only a few minutes from restaurants and shops. The pool is nice but we were didn't use it as the weather was cool while we were there. We would stay there again if we needed to rent a place again.

We were very comfortable, pool is nice. Close to a lot of attractions. Would stay again.
