Pictures don't do it justice
This place is gorgeous. The owners take care of it very well. We found everything we needed here. The jacuzzi and swimming pool were great and it's all enclosed with netting. The bathrooms and rooms were big and give a calm and cozy feeling. Beach towels we're also provided. The only negative i can think of is that the queen bed in the left room with 2 beds is more like a hammock. I had to keep moving between the two sides because one would sink then i move to the other side until it sinks then i move back and forth. We're also didn't find linens for the pull out bed in the small room. Not a big deal though. Three are plenty of positives and reasons to come back. This isa great place.

Great property
Our stay was great!! Property was clean and well maintained. Had all the amenities we needed. We even got to see some dolphins and manatees in the canal which made the stay even better. Great communication with the hosts. Would definitely stay again if we are in the area!

Really cool property!
Five brothers and sisters spread around the US. We try to get together as often as possible and this time it was the Tampa area. Found this property and thought it would work for us. It did. Nice hot tub and pool. On the canal for a nice view out the back windows. Kitchen was nice and plenty of supplies. The ladies got one room. Two brothers in another room and one brother with his own room. Easy directions. Safe and secure. HVAC worked well. Hot tub was relaxing. Bring your bathing suit and your passwords for streaming services.

Too nice for three Old Fishermen
We are three old fellows in our 70's and I decided that I would treat two crusty buddies to a stay that they would never dream of renting. This was the place for four nights. We fished for two days and visited various restaurants for lunch and dinner. The hot tub was most enjoyable. We did have trouble with no hot water in the small shower, but, the other shower worked just fine. A great spot and a Beautiful cottage !!

A group of three stayed here for 4 nights. The pool area continues out to the boat house for a little fishing if you so desire. We will likely return. 😊

Absolutely fantastic stay for our winter vacation. It has everything you could possibly need. We traveled with kids, ages 7-16, and they absolutely loved the board games, fishing right off the deck and of course the pool. It’s spacious, exceptionally clean, easy to find and stocked with everything, even coffee. Communication with the host is easy as well, and very responsive. We had such a good time, and would love to come back as it feels like a home away from home. Location was also great- easy drive to beaches, Anna Maria, shopping etc.
