OTHER THINGS TO NOTE
There is a Guide Book available when you arrive at our home. It is in a small 3 ring binder and it contains suggestions on the best Shopping places, Golf Courses, Beaches and water activities like Boat rentals plus suggestions for places to eat out or places to see that are unique to our area. Also we have a Guest Book that we have provided for our guests to sign. It’s always interesting to look at and read about others that have visited us – what they did while in Cape Coral, what they may have liked the best while here and where they may have come from. If you have any questions about booking our home or the area please message me and I will be more than happy to talk to you! Additionally, after or during your stay if you think of something that will make my home better for your next stay or other guests when they come, I am always open to learning. I have learned many things from my guests, things I would’ve never thot about if they hadn’t mentioned it.
