Nautical Cabin

The house has been neglected for some time. We were locked into this property due to no other availability after we got there and saw what we saw. There were other scheduled and paid for events we could not change. The cleanliness of the home is not what one would expect at any price. The mold alone is disturbing. There was water intrusion in the lower level from a rotted wall and woodwork to a leaky ceiling. Plumbing fixtures including toilets loose from their base and sink drains leaking under vanities. The home has not been properly cleaned for a long time. I can confidently say this and show examples through the dozens of pictures i took. The listed pictures and description are misleading and it was very disappointing to say the least. The furniture is worn out, broken or just bad and you could not pick up a tv remote without it becoming stuck to your hand from filth. I would never had rented this place knowing what I now know. I also got sick the last couple of days which ruined one diving trip, probably from the mold. This review is what is unfortunately is and VRBO and the Owner need to step up and make this a better place. I can provide pictures and details to anyone who wishes to see this. A very unhappy family left this property.

God’s Beauty Revealed

The view is indescribable in its beauty. The peace found there is one that that I have never felt and it gave me the ability to “just be.” Jeff was available and a gracious host whenever we had questions. This is a place worth staying at and we are hoping to have the opportunity to do it again in the future.

December break

The property was very quite and perfect for a break between the holidays. The house is supplied with everything you need. From cooking to bedding. It was close to a lot of great shopping as well as walking trails, outdoor activities (swimming with manatees) and state parks. We seen a dolphin and a river otter from the porch. We would definitely book again.

Million Dollar View

The view from the cabin was amazing. It's great watching the boats go by and the birds feeding along the shoreline. One of our favorite things was swinging on the swing on the upper deck. Wonderful breezes up on the deck.

Perfectly Relaxing

Spent most of the time lounging on the covered deck (rain or shine) viewing the local wildlife. Sea otters, dolphins, jumping mullets, bald eagles, crows, herrings, and the list goes on and on. The only problem was having to leave this paradise.

Amazing location!!

The hardest thing I’ve done this week is leave this property! The listing is very accurate! We saw manatee, the otter, some beautiful birds including two bald eagles! I would live here. Plenty of things to do. Kayaking, fishing, beautiful springs close by. A couple of bars/restaurants within golf cart distance. Just the drive to the house is incredible. It is so peaceful and serene. The house is very well equipped with all necessities and the master bed is so comfortable!! Check in process was simple and Jeff couldn’t have been a better host. I can’t wait to stay here again!
