Awesome gem within minutes of island fun!
This property had a little bit of everything that met all of our family needs and wishes! Heated and enclosed pool with fun floats, right on a canal where we fished and observed all kinds of creatures, two kitchens and living areas and plenty of space to move about! Would highly recommend to any family considering a stay in this area!

Great place
My family was very pleased with this property. Between the downstairs open area with its nice lounge space and pool, and the upstairs TV room, this place enables a vibrant atmosphere to spend time with others. As boat owners, it was nice to be right next to the canal with direct access to the sea. Both kitchen spaces were surprisingly well equipped with tools and quality appliances. Thank you, Jackie, for letting us stay here!

Perfect canal house
Great place with two separate sleeping areas that are perfect for 2 small families to share. The pool area is awesome, and having a private boat ramp and dock on the property made it a 10 out of 10. We brought our 25ft pontoon boat and used it everyday. We had the A/C quit in the top unit, but a phone call late at night to Jackie, and she had a repairman there first thing the next morning. Would stay there again 100%.

What a wonderful place right on the canal with it's own (personal) boat ramp and dock. The location is great and just a bike ride from fantastic beaches and restaurants. The house is well appointed and the place is ready for you to immediately begin your vacation. Jackie was very helpful and responsive and we're looking forward to our next trip back.

Excellent experience for the whole family! This rental has something for everyone! Pool for the kids, dock for your boat with super easy access to the bay! Within a mile of the beach! Home is big enough for everyone with even a separate downstairs one bedroom complete unit! Immaculately clean, with all kinds of extras. And Jackie is the best! She communicates extremely well and is so helpful and enthusiastic about making sure you have a great stay. I can’t say enough good things about the experience! We will be back soon.

Perfect house for large family
This house was perfect for us. I traveled here with my husband, 18+ aged children, and my 60+ aged parents. The location was spot on with beaches a 5 minute drive away, restaurants within walking and bicycling distances, and entertainment right over the bridge. The pool was perfect for first morning dips and evening relaxation! The house was clean and well kept with everything you need. The neighborhood was quiet and and friendly. Check-in/out was easy and Jackie (owner) was great to communicate with! We will definitely stay here again!

Nice house
We rented both units and both were very clean, the upper unit is especialy nice with lots of space and a very well equiped kitchen. Outside space is also very nice with a nice (bit to warm) pool and lots of shade, we did see some Manatee's swim by. Beach chairs, bikes and a cart provided. Short drive to the AMI beaches, even possible to ride the bikes to AMI. Communication with Jacky has been great and she provided us with a lot off tips for things to do, the caretaker next door also very friendly and helpfull!

Birthday Girls Weekend Away
Layout of the first and 2nd floor is awkward with only 1 set of keys for each floor. Steps to 2nd floor is very difficult for elderly to walk up and down. Floors could have been cleaner and front yard is all rocks so not dog friendly to walk and no lights across the street at night to walk the pet. Sprinklers across the street came on and flooded the limited grass area to walk pet and both of us got soaked.
