About this property

The interior of Shady Pines, with her wood look tile flooring is very pet and children friendly and safe from damage claims for you.

Amenities: bed linen & towels, air conditioning, heating, heated swimming pool in a large cage, free wireless internet, pets are welcome, a free cot, baby pack and play and extra linens in a closet. Smoking allowed, but outside only. Included are: 2-4 canoes, 2- 3 kayaks, paddles and vests.

Most of the 1 x 8 mile Lemon Bay is about waist high yet populated with dolphins, many types of fish and manatees! The bottom is firm and except for the trenched in boat channels, you can stand up for safety almost anywhere. Very family friendly. Take a bottled water, wear a life vest and hat and bring your phone in a ziplock for safety.

The home is air conditioned, the pool heated and the cage around the pool makes relaxing outdoors easy. Shady Pines is kayaking/canoeing or walking distance from Cedar Point Park, a huge preserve and natural habitat of Old Florida. Some of the pictures show Cedar Point and the trails, kayak launch and wildlife signs!, one of the last remaining large tracts of reserved undeveloped land as a Park on Lemon Bay in Charlotte County. With 115 acres pine flat-woods covering over 60 % of the park, Cedar Point also has scrub, scrubby flat-woods, mangrove swamps, salt marshes, and wetlands.Cedar Point is a leisurely 10 minute stroll from Shady Pines. This is a highly fortuitous aspect to our vacation rental.

The several pictures of a family canoeing and kayaking and paddle boating on the estuary are actual guests enjoying our boats. Shady Pines is ideally located hardly 1/4 mile from shopping and services. There is a Publix within walking or biking distance and the Englewood beach is a 2.3 mile drive by land.

Also Stump Pass, where the Lemon Bay opens to the Gulf of Mexico, is a 2 mile trip by water. Manor road is a strip of upgrade waterfront homes fronting Ainger Creek. Shady Pine’s 1.3 acres is a long rectangle with the home well set back off the street and the waterfront is on the other end. We hope to see you soon! David

We do weddings too!! Elopements really, with very small parties. We arrange the ceremony onsite and we have the equipment. A great place for a retreat from the world for 2 to 8 or more. This location can handle a reunion or small/medium wedding or vow renewal

Misleading but it was a place to stay

Thanks to other comments about the shared driveway or else we probably wouldn't have found it. First off it was a decent place to stay like many others have stated it needs updating. However, it is very misleading when it states they have canoes and kayaks to use. The canoes are in very bad shape the kayaks were okay but covered in ants. We could have still used it and washed it out but the ores were awful and not of use. And the lifejackets that were thrown in the mangroves and the few that were there was moldy. We got this place for the sole purpose of using the kayaks and canoes. The tree house entrance is covered by branches and can't even go up. The place is nice but needs a lot of up keep to the outside. We were home and all of a sudden we heard a noise coming from the pool. It would have been nice to know that people were coming to clean the pool. They dumped chemicals in which one shouldn't be in there for a good 6-8hrs after they dump that stuff in. Communication about that would have been nice to have. Bring your own silverware. We had a total of 6 people and only 5 forks. Luckily we live 3hrs away and brought a bunch of stuff with us which was silverware. Now for the sleeping arrangements. Its very confusing. They state it sleeps 8 and one place says 3 bedrooms another says four bedrooms. Well there are technically only 3 bedrooms. The little den area they turned it into these pull out twin beds. They have a divider that you can put up for a little bit of privacy.

Great Experience! Highly recommend

Davids description is 100% transparent and accurate. This home is in a perfect location, get the remote feel, but stores, beaches, etc are 5 mins away. Great size and layout. Nothing fancy, yet all the things you could need and no worries of damages. We had the pleasure of meeting him briefly and he was pleasant to speak with and truly cares about his guests experience. The pier for fishing and use of kayaks right on property was our highlight! We will be back for another stay for sure!

Great weekend getaway!

We booked this house for my husband‘s birthday during Memorial Day weekend. The house was a little tricky to find at first because it doesn’t have any indicators showing the house number from the road and shares a driveway with the house next to it. Very spacious yard and plenty of parking though! The house had plenty of room with some things needing updating but the backyard had plenty of room for our dog to run around and play in. The pool was a great plus, and the owners were kind enough to purchase plenty of pool floats to use. Thank you! The location of the dock is great as far as the distance to boat ramp and short ride to Lemon Bay was perfect! Just be careful of oyster beds on low tide for those that bring a boat. Thank you so much for letting us stay!

Very private

The neighborhood and property were very nice and quiet. The house is a bit outdated but has a lot potential. The pool was big and nice and warm but needs some attention. The waterfront was nice, but the water is brown. We never got the kayaks in because of the drop from the pier to the water. Lots of places you can walk to. Nice restaurants. Easy drive to beach and state parks. Overall we had a great time and enjoyed the house.

Row boats only

The ad says 2' of water at end of dock at low tide. I brought my 23' cc boat that draws 14" only to find 8" of water at the end of dock at low tide. Was unable to get boat within 25' of the dock. Bad enough. The ad also says 11' clearance at low water bridge leading out to Lemmon Bay, my cc needs 8' & 2" would not clear at high tide. David offered a off site dock to leave the boat also inside of low water bridge therefore this would not work for me. I ended up trailering my boat to a ramp everyday. Definitely bummed our fishing vacation. David said I should should have chosen a week with more accommodating tides. I chose that week because of the moon phase. Had the ad provided honest information I would not have stayed there.

Exactly what is advertised

We had an amazing time at this location. House, pool, and yard was nice! There are some things that need updated/fixed but overall, a nice place to stay! We have a deck boat and at low tide, it was difficult to get it out but it wasn’t too bad during high tide. During low tide, it was under a foot at the dock. It stormed for a whole day while staying here and the house was stocked with games and entertainment. It made it nice to just sit and relax at the house with a family.

Shadowy Pines

This was a super stay: backyard with a private pier fronting a wide creek, kayaks, bikes and fishing poles supplied (!), plenty of room for even a large family to dine and relax, and dog-friendly, all at a reasonable price -- almost perfect. This part of Florida is much less crowded and developed than even the Tampa/Sarasota area so traffic on the roads and at the beaches is much less crowded and much more enjoyable.

Enjoyed our stay. Amazing property

We really enjoyed our stay at this house. The location is amazing. Loved being on the water. I enjoyed watching sunrises out on the long dock. The yard is huge. The kids had fun exploring all of it. The property is close to the beach, just a few minute drive. The house is very roomy. Definitely plenty of space for us and our 2 teenagers, who were happy to have their own rooms and bathroom. We used the bikes once, as well as the kayaks and SUP. Would definitely stay there again.

Quiet and relaxing

Everything was as advertised and more spacious than we expected. The photos don't do the place justice. The pool is very nice and the heater works great. The layout makes some of the rooms a little dark, but opening the blinds helps a lot. Could use a few more lamps though. The kitchen is very well stocked with small appliances and flatware. David is very responsive to any requests. If you have need for anything, just ask. We stayed for a month and enjoyed our stay. Great location!

Great property

We enjoyed our stay here. Having the docks and the boat lift for our personal fishing kayaks was really a plus. The available kayaks were fun to have to enjoy with the family! The yard was large enough to be able to walk our dogs around. The only issue we had was the pool not being heated, and we were in contact with Dave regarding the pool. He was very responsive and helpful on any questions we had as he lives nearby. The TV service was changed over while we were there, so there was a bit of a learning curve and inability to get some of the regular channels. Dave is looking into all of that. All in all we would consider staying here again with family.

About the host

Hosted by David Sullins

We have a couple vacation rentals on the West and East Coast, and love hosting these to others for vacations or even as area visit alternatives to motels.

Why they chose this property

The west coast of Florida is hard to beat. Laid back and missed by many, this area has fauna, waterways and beaches that get national awards but are never overrun.

What makes this property unique

Right on the water with 1.3 acres of privacy, we have a pier for fishing and launching your boat or our canoes to the 1 x 8 mile Lemon Bay playground. A heated pool in a cage on a large air conditioned home with parking for cars and boat trailers galore! We have tried to include so much with the kayaks, canoes, parking and private pier to give you as much value for your money as possible!
