We had a wonderful stay! The host was absolutely awesome... very kind and helpful throughout our visit. The home had amazing views, especially from the dining area and kitchen, which made every meal extra special. The pool was great, and the view from the pool was just as beautiful. We also enjoyed spending time by the saltwater canal. A bonus treat was watching the local burrowing owls in the front yard every evening... my wife loved them. Highly recommend! Would love to stay here again.

Our Zen

This is the second year we rented this vacation home from Maggie, and we could not say enough wonderful things about her home and her hospitality. We have rented homes through VRBO over the past 8 years, but never rented the same property twice. Thank you for helping our family continue to make great memories, we are truly grateful

A Great Summer Vacay!

We (5 adults and 2 young kids) had a wonderful time at this rental! We stayed for a week and enjoyed the quiet neighborhood. Lots of fishing off the dock and the kids loved the pool! The home was clean and comfortable. Easy drive to nice beaches. There was plenty of food options nearby. The host was great and very helpful! Would definitely recommend this home for a fun, peaceful, family trip

Fantastic Vacay!

The pool is awesome and the sunshine hit it until late in the afternoon. Perfect for a whole day of floating and fun! The house was comfortable and very clean. It was great to have a garage to park the car in. It’s conveniently located to restaurants, stores and easy access to Ft Meyers and Sanibel Island.

Great Customer Service but the House needs some TLC

Overall the property owners were extremely responsive and helpful. The refrigerator has rust in the ice dispenser which was not ideal and the grout throughout the house and bathrooms needed a deep clean. Overall the house was ok but there was a lot of patchwork. It worked for us as we were primarily at the beach or on the boat, the house is fairly spacious so that is a plus for the price if you have a larger family.
