The house was awesome and the owner was so accommodating to our needs! The upgraded bathrooms are amazing as well! The pool was perfect for a dip after a day out on the water. We will stay here again.

Beautiful and very clean house. Nice quiet location. Some communication with management after our arrival. However, when I emailed several times prior to our stay I got no response. The kayak was nice except there was no paddle. Luckily we were able to rent one from Apex. Also at the end of our stay communication was lacking when I reported the propane tank on the grill was out and a chair that was very rusted had broken when it was sat on. Loved the house and location but communication from management was not as responsive as it should have been.

We stayed here over my son's spring break to do some fishing on Pine Island. Overall, our stay was amazing. I would definitely stay here again and will most likely book another vacation here. The house was very clean with new furniture and bedding. The pool, dock, and firepit were amazing. Great location, quiet but close to several restaurants that would cook the fish we caught. Only issue which is small and hopefully resolved. The propane on the gas grill was empty. contacted the management company to resolve it. I tried calling, left a message, and texted and they eventually responded to my text advising me to take to a local store to have it filled. Again, not a big issue but I feel it could have been handled better on their part. Again, overall it was a great stay and look forward to returning.

Everything about this home is wonderful. If I could give more than five stars then I would. The house is immaculate clean, beds are comfortable, a/c works perfectly. The house is equipped with everything you need. The pool is big and kids had a great time swimming. The dock and location are perfect for boating and access to fishing. Plenty of room for vehicle and boat trailer parking. Communication with host manager was immediate once we received our welcome info prior to check in. Hoping it’s available for our next visit!

Great spot to get away from everyday hustle and bustle

Overall we had a great stay. We didn’t know much about the area, but quickly found there is not a better spot for boating. 3 minute boat ride out to the water. The house and pool area were extremely clean. We had an issue with the pool heater that was resolved. The boat lift, trailer parking and kayaks were great. Plan to bring your own firewood. The beds are old (squeaky and feel every movement), but I understand the new owner will be renovating. Listing and information from owner and local contact was inaccurate and poor communication. They said they had beach towels, but had only 4 that were in sad shape. The bath towels (1 per person) were tattered and discolored. Easy fixes. The pool area desperately needs a cage. We couldn’t sit outside at night because nothing stopped them. In the end, a great trip because we loved the space and location so much!

This was a perfect getaway for a short girls' weekend. The house is small but was perfect for 3 of us. The pool was great and we enjoyed the firepit at night. The location on the canal was lovely and we enjoyed watching the manatees swim around. St. James is a low key, relaxing town and we enjoyed our trips to Matlacha for delicious food too.

10/10

Love the location & the house. Just a few small maintenance issues that should probably be addressed(guest bedroom window wouldn’t close & water backup into shower & tub one day). No major issues, or anything that kept us from having a great time. Lovely quiet neighborhood.

Spent 3 nights with family at this relaxing home. Nestled in a quiet cul-de-sac. Clean interior with large tv with cable and streaming available. Kitchen opens up to a plunge pool overlooking a canal with tropical feel. We felt like we were in the tropics. Great time!

The dock and boat lift were perfect for our length 22ft boat. Could accommodate slightly bigger as well. Deep canal a short distance to the intracoastal. It was wonderful boating to the surrounding islands and the fishing was great. We loved seeing the manatees that came through the canal every day! The house was clean with a well equipped kitchen, nice linens, and plenty of towels. The pool was perfect after a long day on the salt water. This was a perfect place to stay.

The house was great. The backyard setup was amazing for the family and boat. Made everything very easy. Not much shade to be found around the pool, but not fault off the house. The interior was comfortable, but the back was where most of our time was spent. Short boat rides to dinner made it easy with.

We had a great stay. The house was very clean and comfortable. The view was great. Kids spent most of their time in the pool and the Manatee hung out at the dock mostly everyday. Area shopping and restaurants were great, we will be back.

We had a wonderful time, the house and great and location was perfect! There are few things that I would recommend. When we arrived the towels were still damp and had a musty smell and so did the sheets. We had wash everything before we could use them. Let guest know the mosquitoes are horrible and they need to bring mosquito repellent for yard guard. Search the whole island and not one store had anything so we could not enjoy the patio at night . Set the kitchen up with new pots, pans and utensils. Clean the ceiling fans.

We loved this location and plan to come back! It was beautiful and we enjoyed having the boat there 🥰 beds were comfy and the home was beautiful! There were so many mosquitos though and kept coming inside once you opened the sliding glass door, i think a screen would be super helpful. Overall our stay was amazing and everyone was so nice !! Highly recommend

This location was super peaceful and entertaining. Right when you go into the home it felt cozy and relaxing. We had short boat drives to Captiva Island, Sanibel Island and Ft. Myers Beach. We got to explore all these locations on our stay which we loved. Can't wait to go back at some point...

Perfect place for a quiet getaway. We spent our days by the pool and evenings fishing by the water. The sandy area by the fire pit makes you feel like you have the beach as well. Beautiful palms, friendly neighbors, quiet. We saw manatees and plenty of birds to keep our toddler excited. The house was equipped with everything we needed, including plenty of clean towels and extra pillows, which is appreciated! It is in the middle of nowhere, so you have to do some driving to get to the store, restaurants, the beach, etc, which was fine with us.

10/10

We really enjoyed our stay here and we are planning on coming back again.
