We were two families with a gaggle of kids and two dogs. There were plenty of sleeping spots, nice cool ac, and everything we needed for the weekend. We enjoyed being able to walk to the historic Smallwood Store.

My family of 5 enjoyed our stay at Big Blue in Chokoloskee Island. The host was very friendly and helpful. The accommodations are not high end, and there were a few things that could use updating but all the basics were covered and it is spacious with an excellent location! We had a fun family vacation.

Clean, nicely furnished double-wide, with recent update including new kitchen appliances/large HDTV. Roomy with cold air and plenty of hot water. Comfortable beds with new mattresses. Close proximity to marina with deeded boat dock. Just right for some fishing in 10,000 islands or exploring the nearby area.

This was a perfect fit for me and my family. The house was comfortable and clean and large enough for our group of 5 adults. The neighborhood was great and we enjoyed walks and sunset watching. Three of our group went for a 3 day kayaking and camping trip on nearby islands, a big success. Walter was incredibly helpful and responsive to questions I had in advance. I would definitely stay here again.

Walter was great with the communications and information about the area. Was a perfect location to see the Southern Everglades. House was clean and had many amenities we used. It does need a little TLC but overall a good value for the price. Thank you Walter!!!!

We arrived late and found the unit to be exactly as described and very welcoming. The host Walter was such a font of information and spot on for guidance on things to do and places to eat. Very prompt to answer even the most minute questions. If we hadn't been moving to visit the other side of Florida we well could have stayed the entire 8 days we visited the lovely state.

This house was perfect for our needs, we came for the weekend to explore and fish. They have a slip you can leave your boat but we decided to just take the boat in and out everyday because of the tides. The boat ramp we used was just 10-15 min drive to Everglades City. The house was equipped with what you need to cook, like a home away from home. Walter was very communicative, we even chatted with him prior to our arrival.

This was the best hands down. Clean house very spacious we loved big blue!!! Don’t let the outside fool you ❤️ look forward to our next stay here Walter the owner was great and provided great hospitality. 500/500 recommend. First trip to 10,000 islands was amazing. The guys that help with the parkway marina and help out at havanna Cuba was amazing too awesome hospitality all the away around thank you for a great weekend!

We spent a week at Big Blue. A last minute rental as the property we had cancelled in January and we had to scramble to find something. Z so A Pros: Near great fishing, a lot of room in the rental, laundry room, Cons: not very well cleaned(dirt and dust under beds, cob webs in corners, dirty shelves in kitchen cabinets); ant problems; poorly or not working exhaust fans in kitchen and master bathroom; king sized bed should have been replaced 10 years ago, very soft and sags; no plug in master bath; need baking sheet for kitchen; cable is YouTube tv no regular programming.

Rented this place for a boating trip with my dad and brother and we had a blast! The unit is located on chokoloskee island about 2-3 short blocks from the water. We trailered my brothers boat out there and there’s plenty of space for a car and trailer at the unit. It also came with a dock slip which was great so we didn’t have to trailer our boat every day before and after fishing. We even caught our dinner one night which always makes the trip even better. Walt the Host was extremely communicative and answered all my questions well in advance. The unit was clean and had everything we needed to cook, shower and do our laundry. Overall, great spot if you want to get out in 10,000 islands to explore and fish. Would highly recommend!

I had the pleasure of staying at this VRBO for a fishing trip in the Everglades, and it was truly an amazing experience. The location and the boat slip were both excellent, making it easy to explore both up and down the coast. One of the standout features of this rental is the convenience it offers. The availability of gas, fresh shrimp, a small store, and a lift for getting your boat in and out of the water right at the docks was a big plus. It made our fishing trip hassle-free and enjoyable. "Big Blue" exceeded our expectations. The property was clean, modern, and well-maintained. It had everything we needed for our stay, and more. The hosts, Walter and Margret, were exceptional. They were accommodating and made us feel very welcome. In summary, if you're looking for a fantastic place to stay for a fishing trip in the Everglades, this VRBO is an excellent choice. The location, amenities, and the hospitality of the hosts all contributed to a memorable and enjoyable experience. I highly recommend it.
