Annual Family Vacation
This is our second time staying at this property and we had a great time. Our favorite spot would be the covered dock where we fished, swam, manatee watched, and enjoyed the week.

Lovely long weekend
We had a lovely long weekend here. It was clean and as advertised. We loved having the kayaks available to venture out on the canals and the river. We brought a couple of paddleboards too—the kids spent a lot of time on the water! Thanks for a lovely stay.

This was our second trip and it was wonderful! Very clean and great fishing. Needs a water hose in back area to clean off deck and a curtain on sliding glass door. Had problems with main bathroom door closing. Overall we look forward to visiting next year. Great place

Magical
My husband and I had the most relaxing vacation here. The house had everything you needed and the location was perfect. We spent most of our time on the dock by the water. The kayaking was amazing and we fished a lot. We were even able to spend an extra night. We will be planning g to come back soon

Would stay again.
Everything about this place is great. Location is awesome. Not far from everything, but far enough it's quiet and peaceful. Met the cleaning lady( which I might add came out on a Sunday to try to help) do to the fact that the TV remote was missing. She was great as well. Communication with the home owners was also great. They over nighted 2 brand new remotes and a box of batteries. Sitting under the bocks shelter while it rained for a day was so relaxing as well. Would stay here again.

Location was perfect for kayaking
If your looking for easy access to the river this place is perfect. It was super clean and had everything you need in the kitchen and bath including plenty of towels. The back yard can use some TLC but nothing that was problem-some to us. Would not hesitate to book again if needed.

River Escape
Second time staying here and couldn’t ask for more! My husband and I enjoyed our kayaking trips and catching fish right from our own dock! The last night we were there we had a manatee come right to the dock to eat the grasses. It was amazing. Can’t wait until we can book again!

Clean and Cozy
We enjoyed our stay. The home was nice and clean. We only wished that the checkout was later, at 11 so we didn't have to set an alarm and feel rushed to clean up and leave. We would have liked to have had an extra hour to relax by the water before leaving. All else was good.

It was great for us. It was myself and grandson. I would recommend renting a boat just because the current is rough. They supplied Kayaks and we did use them and it was so much fun. I would go again and would stay here

Summer Vacation
The outside definitely needs some attention, front and back mostly just appearance. The house is equipped with everything, which makes it nice, there is a huge step to either bedroom so be careful with that. The beds to us were way too soft, and the couch needs to be replaced but we made due as the river was amazing. Its a cute house and the location is great

Nice small rental on the canal. Old house that is remodeled nicely. I wished the beds were more firm, as both my brother and I had a little bit of a hard time sleeping as they were saggy. Mini split units did not work even after calling the owner for instructions, the compressor would not come on. All in all the house worked for us, although we were a little chilly one night and a little hot a couple nights later.

The Little House on the Canal
The home was well represented in the VRBO presentation.. The pictures showing updates were right on. It was clean and comfortable and had all the little necessities (toilet paper, paper towels, bar soap, hand soap, coffee filters, salt & pepper etc.) needed to keep from having to run to the store. The kitchen was well stocked. It was just right to accommodate 4 people. Might get a little crowded with six, but could be done. It was pleasant to sit out on the dock and enjoy the cool early morning breeze and sunrise.
