About this property

Gorgeous Wide Canal Home, 5 minutes to the River

This home is all about combining an amazing location with the perfect blend of amenities. We are located at the end of a large canal where you can sit and see Glorious sunrises, feel the cool breeze off the water and soak in the Florida sunshine. If you are a boater, we are only FIVE minutes to the river, and then a short cruise to Sanibel, Captiva or one of the many little island only accessible by boat. If you prefer a land trip, we are minutes to Fort Meyers Beach and Lovers Key. Destinations such as Naples and Sanibel Island take less than an hour, or if up for a bit further drive, check out Venice Beach for Shark teeth!

No matter what the plan, our home will be that comforting oasis when you return. Enjoy the game room which includes shuffle board and ping pong. Catch a game or watch a movie on one of the 6 televisions or cook up a great meal in the fully stocked kitchen. The designated office space with a desk, monitor and high speed internet provides you with private space if you need to work remotely(and the "to die for" view will make you wish it was your permanent office!) Our ideal outdoor space is a perfect blend of covered and uncovered. Our loungers have full day sun exposure for that beautiful bronze tan. There is outdoor seating for dining with 4 mini fridges, a grill, and a bar. And, a of course a relaxing sitting area under the Lanai. Configure the loveseat and chairs to take in the view or watch a movie on our outside TV.

End your evenings with a peaceful slumber on one of the 5 comfortable beds. Blending 2 families? In addition to the Master, there is another ensuite with a full bath, as well as the main full bath in the hall (this has a tub as well as shower). The office provides a fifth private sleeping space with a double futon (great for 2 children or 1 adult) and room darkening curtains.

Our hope is that we've provided all those little things that makes your stay the vacation of your dreams!

Exactly what you see!
We had a group of 7 in town for a church conference and found the house had a perfect set up for our crew. The private bathrooms for two of the bedrooms were great. The view was absolutely beautiful and we enjoyed watching the sunrise in the morning! Very clean and easy to reach the host with the few questions we had. We recommend this home!

Annual family trip. July 2023
My wife and I along with my daughter, three grandkids, my nephew and our golden retriever all had a great time on our family vacation. We normally rent a house on Fort Myers Beach but after all the devastation from the hurricane last year, we weren’t sure what to expect so we decided to stay in Cape Coral instead. The house is exactly as listed, great location, close to everything, well equipped with plenty of room for everyone. The kids loved the air-conditioned game room and computer room. The screened in pool area, right on the canal, was also enjoyed by all. We found some good restaurants that were close by, rented a boat for a day trip to Sanibel Beach. We also had the opportunity to spend a few days on Fort Myers Beach and was able to do some parasailing. Wendy was very accommodating and easily accessible. Very nice, quiet neighborhood and I would recommend this home to anyone.

About the host

Hosted by Wendy Szmara

Host profile image
My name is Wendy. I am a wife, mother and full time professional. We have a very expansive family that includes 4 children, many bonus kids, grandkids and our beloved fur babies. We purchased our Cape Coral home in 2020 with the intention of having it as a retirement home. As we work towards being there full time, we decided to open it to others to enjoy as well when we are not there. Our hope is to provide a "home away from home" atmosphere where other can relax, while making forever memories with family and friends.

Why they chose this property

Cape Coral is a gorgeous area. the weather is beautiful all year round and nothing beats being on the water. There are many local restaurants with all different tastes and you will find places that are dog friendly, have live music or you can dock your boat to. Our neighborhood is quiet and friendly for walking and bike riding.

What makes this property unique

Our home is one of the few that offers Sailboat access to the river in a very quick 5 minutes. We are great for larger groups or 2 families, (having that 3rd full bath is priceless). Having been frequent travelers using VRBO and other sites to find accommodations for 4-30 people, we feel we have really equipped the house with everything you should need.
