Venice Bal Harbour Lake House near Beaches too! Pet Friendly

5 Stars all around. First, Greg, the host, was extremely helpful in making sure that my wife and I were comfortable and had all of the amenities necessary. Even offered to bring others items if needed. Everything from towels, beach wagon, umbrella, chairs, bikes were all ready and saved us space in our car. Greg also helped when we ran into unexpected car troubles 12 hours away from home.The property itself is situated in a beautiful neighborhood. The house was tastefully decorated and we felt very peaceful. We enjoyed sitting out by the lanai covered heated pool listening to the birds. And when we were ready to get out, we had a selection of beaches 15-20 minutes away. From Brohard Dog Beach and Casperson to Venice and Englewood, all very close and short jaunts.This isn’t your high energy kind of town, expect peaceful vibes and genuine people surrounded by wildlife and beautiful beaches.

Ten days of our vacation passed by as comfortably as at our home. The house is located in a quiet, welcoming neighborhood close to everything: a pizza shop in just 3 minutes, Sharkies Beach in 7 minutes, and major grocery stores in 5-10 minutes. Greg was super courteous in providing check-in information and answered our texts in minutes. The house is well equipped for a large family. The beds are comfy and the sheets are soft, plenty of bath towels, and everything you need for the beach.Our ten-day vacation felt just as comfortable as being at home.

We had such a wonderful time! We were coming in for a wedding and the host graciously allowed us to get in to the house early. The pool was warm and beautiful. The view every morning was absolutely beautiful. The amount of birds and wildlife was so amazing. The hosts were more than accommodating. They even brought us sifters for skimming shark teeth. That was so much fun. We would definitely stay here again when we are in the area. Thank you Greg and Kim for your hospitality.

Great house with everything in an equally great neighborhood. Needs nothing to complete a great vacation.

We had an amazing stay at the house. All you need is a toothbrush and clothes as they have everything you need. Beds were comfy, location was excellent and the pool was warm and just perfect! Being behind the channel was also really enjoyable as we were able to see lots of cool wildlife! I highly recommend! We can’t wait to return!!!

Spent a lovely holiday at this gorgeous house. It is exactly as described, and is so very well equipped with everything you could possibly want or need. This includes all beach equipment which is high quality and plentiful, and even bikes! We loved it! The property manager is very helpful and responsive. We even had muffins and juice provided as a welcome which was very much appreciated. Cannot recommend this property enough. It is without doubt the best property we have found on Vrbo. Can’t wait to return!

The house was bright with lots of sunlight coming in all day long. very well maintained with attention to detail. Nice and quiet neighborhood, yet accessibility was great to grocery stores and major roads. It was nice to have a pool view from the kitchen. Especially appreciated the screening tree around pool. All of us enjoyed staying at this house. Thanks a lot!

Cannot say enough great things about the home, the area and the host. First, Greg was prompt with any questions we had before arriving. When we were staying at the home, he reached out to check in our stay, however we had no issues to report. The home had everything you needed down to shampoo and conditioner in the shower. The pool and lanai had a southerly exposure, so this time of the year we were able to watch sunrises and sunsets sitting on the lanai. The pool water was warm and very comfortable, never felt chilly. Neighborhood was very quiet so we were able to experience some peace and quiet. This has been one of the best rentals we have stayed at. Close to many beaches and lots of restaurants on the water in Venice and close by communities. Highly recommended!

We stayed for two weeks and found the property just as shown - clean and well stocked. The neighborhood is incredibly quiet and, due to the proximity of water, you get to enjoy a number of birds going about their day. In particular, Herman ( a heron) likes to visit the fountain in the front just about every day. We had a relaxing time and were able to go just about everywhere (beaches, dinner, stores) in the area in 10-15 drive. Greg, the property manager checked in several times with us to see if we needed anything, but we really had everything we needed. We will visit again.

We have stayed in several VRBO’s and this house rates at the very top. Incredibly clean, awesome Florida Beach decor, all the amenities for a great meaningful stay. The owner is very responsive and friendly. The pool is fabulous and the neighborhood is very quiet.
