About this property

Beautiful relaxing waterfront home with pool, spa, boat dock and access to gulf


This home is perfect for a quiet getaway, a golfer's dream, relaxing vacation or fisherman’s paradise.

When you walk in you are greeted by the beautiful sitting area perfect for relaxing or reading a good book and the great room that overlooks the patio, lanai, pool and canal. If you enjoy open air living, you will love the over sized sliding glass doors that open the entire home to a beautiful pool area with hot tub/spa enclosed by the lanai.

You can spend the evenings enjoying the peace and quite in the hot tub or pool viewing the stars or playing pool games or cards in the screened in lanai.

You will find everything you need to cook a nice dinner or poolside BBQ in the newly remodeled kitchen showcasing new tile floors, new granite counter tops and brand new cabinets. The kitchen has a full refrigerator, freezer with ice maker, in door water and ice dispenser, a microwave, dishwasher, stove, oven with air fryer coffee pot, Keurig, electric griddle, crock pot, blender and much more. We even go as far as leaving spices and condiments for guest to use if they choose. This eliminates the need to purchase all of the "little things" that are needed to have the perfect vacation. This kitchen is not like most vacation rentals, you will quite literally find everything you need with not just one pan but multiple pans and plenty of utensils, appliances, storage containers, cookware etc.

The master suite features a King size bed with a walk in closet and sitting area. This room also has a smart T.V. The newly remodeled master bath includes granite counter tops with dual sinks, new cabinets, new walk in tile shower and a sitting vanity. The bathroom has a hairdryer and is also stocked with items for the shower and first aid items that guests are welcome to use. You will also have a nice view and direct access to the pool, hot tub and lanai through the sliding glass door in the master suite.

The two guest rooms are nicely appointed with queen sized beds and walk in closets. One of the guest rooms is pool side with a nice view of the pool area and a sliding glass door for easy access. The guest bathroom includes shower/tub combination.

This home is in a nice quiet neighborhood located a few miles from some of Florida’s finest beaches, restaurants, golf courses, bike trails, shopping and much more without heavy traffic. If you love to fish this is a perfect location. You can fish right from the dock or use the dock for your boat or a rental boat with access to the bay and gulf. No need to worry about tidal changes because we don't have them. We are located in an area with locks.

Have children? They will love the pool and you will love that the backyard is fenced in. If you have toddlers and still want to enjoy being outside without the worry of the pool, we have a safety barrier that keeps the little ones safe. We also have a pack and play and small booster seat/ highchair. There are also many kids beach toys including sand buckets, shovels and boogie boards.

For security purposes there are security cameras located on the outside of the home facing the front door, driveway, dock, pool and patio areas. While staying at the house we are fine if guests are not comfortable with the cameras facing the "private areas" like the pool and patio, and we are perfectly fine if you want to cover them with a plastic bag. We just ask that when you leave you please remove anything used to cover the cameras.

Please feel free to read all of the wonderful reviews and as always ask any questions that you may have.

Great place to stay!!

We truly loved our family time in this beautiful home. The home was stocked with everything we needed and the owners ( fellow Michiganders) were wonderful and quickly responded to any question we had. Would highly recommend this home, and we would love to stay again sometime. Pool/hot tub area was perfect and loved how the big sliders opened up all the way leading out there. Great set up!

Very nice place

The house was great and totally met our needs. Unfortunately we had a cool rainy week, so we didn't use the pool too much, but we did spend a lot of time in the hot tub! The only downside was that the house was kind of far away from things to do. If you're looking for a super quiet, relaxed place to stay, this is for you!

Private Pre-4th of July Gathering

Very quiet neighborhood, with lots of room to move about the home. Well furnished, very comfy living room furniture, 65 in. TV, well equipped kitchen. Had a super time relaxing by the pool, though my 5 yr. old grandson kept me IN the pool most of the time. Loved it.

Fun in the Sun

We had a fun and relaxing week at this beautiful property! They had anything and everything we could have possibly needed. We spent our time split between the beach and the pool/hot tub. The house and property were super clean and tidy. The owners are very friendly and communicative. We loved the fun items to make guests feel welcome and at home. We would definitely stay again!

Everything & more !

As soon as we pulled up to the house - my husband was impressed!! The hurricane did so much damage to the area - but the this house was all put together!!we enjoyed the heated pool & the warm sunshine practically everyday !!! We have stayed in several different VRBO properties & this one by far had so much more in the house that we didn’t have to buy - We had the privilege of meeting the owners - wonderful people !!! Texting Barb was like texting a friend !( before we even met!! ) Would highly recommend this property for a family or just a couple that want to get a way !! The drive to Boca Grande is worth it ! A cute little town ( even with the damage from the hurricane)

A perfect getaway

We came down with two of our friends to get married on Venice beach. We wanted our own space to get ready and relax and this was it! We enjoyed the pool and hot tub every single day. The house is perfectly laid out. Communication with the hosts was easy and always prompt. I couldn't have asked for a better place to stay!!

Excellent!

This was our first VRBO experience and I can't believe how easy the whole process was. The owners were amazing with communication, either via text, email or the booklets left at the house. We couldn't have asked for an easier vacation. The house is amazing! The location, the amenities, the canal, it was all perfect for us. The house was stocked with just about anything you would need. We enjoyed the canal, the pool and the lenai every day. The house is close to many beaches, we even saw manatees swimming right off shore, tons of shells and sharkteeth to be found, fishing charters, everything. We will most definitely be back and have already recommended this house to multiple people! Thank you so much for sharing your wonderful home with myself and my family.

Relaxing retreat

The property offered everything necessary to relax and unwind from the monotony of our daily routine. The pool and spa were perfect for our family and equipped with so many pool toys, even the baby had several options. The dock was a great escape for my daughter, who tried her hand at fishing, netting, and crabbing. Hunting and tracking the lizards was also a perfect pass time. The home is wonderfully decorated, I love the personalized display from all past guests and the map in the dining room. I recommend this home for anyone looking to get away but also though who like to explore differnt areas. We traveled to several surrounding beaches and community without disappointment and all relatively close to the home. We had a great time.

About the host

Hosted by Barb McGuire

Host profile image
We currently live in a small town in Southwest Michigan called Baroda. Living near Lake Michigan has made us love the water, boating and sun and we knew when we bought a second home it would have to be on the water. In Michigan we have a small farm with horses, goats, chickens, dogs and cats. We have 4 grown children with 9 grandchildren. We love to travel, camp, ride the golf cart around the neighborhood, go boating and simply enjoy the outdoors. We have two mottos: "you only live once" and “its always an adventure”.

Why they chose this property

We chose this location mainly because of the weather and location. We searched for areas in the United States that during the winter had an ambient temperature of 70 degrees or higher with a pool on the water and this is where we landed. We have never been more happy with a decision than this one. The location was perfect and neighborhood is so quiet that we fell in love. They always say "you cant pick you neighbors" but if we could have, we would have picked ours because they are all awesome!

What makes this property unique

Quiet neighborhood yet just a few minutes from shopping, entertainment, golfing, fishing, beautiful beaches or pretty much anything you need to make your vacation perfect. You also have a private pool and private hot tub with all of the amenities of home plus more. Our home is stocked with everything you should need including spices! We have stayed in to many places that don't have what we need so we wanted to make sure this house has everything you would need to have the best vacation ever!
