My family and i rented this home for a week vacation, they home was very accommodating and everyone felt right at home during the stay. If you love wild life a morning cup of coffee with the various birds and the occasional dolphin or manetee(s) in the canal then we highly recommend staying in this gorgeous home. We will definitely be back for another stay!

We loved staying here. It was a dream location for us, quiet and relaxing with plenty to do. We saw dolphins and manatees, herons and ducks from (or in) the front lawn. We had our own private dock for fishing or just relaxing. Loved the kayaks. The large screened in porch became a great family gathering place. We had all that we needed and more.

We had a wonderful stay at Cow’s Creek. Being surrounded by all the water is so peaceful. The house is decorated nicely, is bright, very open and extremely clean. The different birds were fun to watch. The kayaks were nice to have for use, as well as the washer and dryer. We also did enjoy the screened in porch as well. I’m looking forward to a return visit.
