Perfect rental for our family! Convenient location with plenty of nearby amenities and easy access for day trips. We even saw manatees in the canal! The beds and furniture were super comfortable, and the place was spotless! The pool, hot tub, and all other appliances were in excellent condition and well maintained and/or new. I have very high standards for cleanliness and this place sparkles! Can’t wait to come back!

Canal front home close to Jewfish Key!
Great location for boating and hanging with the family. Nice pool and jacuzzi. Saw manatees everyday in the canal. Canal is deep even in low tides. The house was well equipped with all the necessities. Even a blender for Pina Coladas! Great communication with management company! We enjoyed the home with our adult kids!

Very nice
We really enjoyed our stay. The only issue we had was VRBO sent a email saying we could have an early check in but when we arrived the property management team was not aware and the cleaner was still cleaning. They did get us in around 2 instead of 4 so that was appreciated

Awesome stay, great location
Everything was flawless with the house itself. A couple minor safety concerns, (big hole in concrete in the back, loose screws laying around dock) but would definitely stay again
