GULF ACCESS home w/ dockage, private yard & 2 min walk to eat and stores!

Home on Quiet Canal w/ private Dock and Gulf Access. Enjoy fishing, grilling, drinking a cold one around the firepit, the sun on the private dock or a cup of coffee on the screened front porch. Take a walk in neighborhood surrounded w/ majestic oaks & Steinhatchee river views, or walk up one block to the best restaurants and stores in the Hatch. Cozy home offers Fiber (High-Speed) Internet w/ Smart TV's in all rooms and streaming services. The perfect balance of Privacy and Nature.

Beautiful Key West Style Home on Quiet Canal in Steinhatchee, Fl. located on a GULF ACCESS tidal canal that is only a 10 minute boat ride to the Gulf. Dockage is most suitable for boats for boats that are 22ft or less and all kayaks or canoes. Maneuverability is more difficult for larger boats.*Please note I can not guarantee dockage of boats if caused by a very low tide which is extremely rare or storm related event. USE OF ALL DOCKAGE IS AT THE GUESTS RISK. Please ask if you have any questions.

If you need a place to park your boat, boat trailer or golf cart, no worries, there is plenty space with this private yard. The large dock has plenty of room to relax around the firepit or fish of the private dock. Dock is equipped with a Fish Cleaning Station (please no scallop cleaning because scallop shells can't be disposed in canal or garbage can). Enjoy our firepit while grilling on our charcoal grill, eating on large outside table or relaxing on the dock; or on screened porch or master room balcony overlooking the canal.

Nice spot!
6 of us stayed here to go scalloping. Overall this was a great place. But the pullout sofa mattress was very uncomfortable. Would recommend it for 4 adults. The beds were very comfy and the bedrooms were roomy. We would stay here again, but just if it were 4.

Bungalow Life
The bungalow was clean and ready for our stay. The kitchen was well-stocked and we had everything we needed for cooking. We also enjoyed local seafood at Kathi's Krab Shack located nearby. The screened porch was a great place to hang out after a day of fishing! We would love to return.

Really nice place
Had a Great time at the place. It was nice and private, the house was clean and well maintained. It had a little canal in the back yard that was great for a small boat like mine. We saw two giant Owls which was really cool on the property. Its about a 15 min ride out to the cut where you can get your fish on. The Host was friendly and nice and communicated well with us on everything. I would stay here again when I come back.

Relaxing and Quiet
The house was great. It was clean and furnished for comfort. We loved the front screen porch and spent most of our time there. The back was also nice and was able to do a little fishing from the dock. The owner is fantastic and is very quick to answer any questions you may have about anything in regards to the house. We will definitely be coming back to this house next year. We have rented a couple of different houses now in Steinhatchee and this one is by far our favorite.

A lot of money for a basic home and many many issues...
We came in for Father's Day and the owner was really great about responding to our questions and getting us information we requested about the area. We paid extra for a deep water dock for the rental boat we arranged. The dock belonged to a friend and when we drove by the night before there was a truck with a flat tire and party debris on the ground. We could not see the dock and felt really uncomfortable approaching some homeowner we did not know to figure out where to dock our rental.... The house was basic and the furniture in the living room was like from a college campus house. One recliner chair had duct tape in two places on the seat. The master bedroom had a TV and two remotes but no cable box - it took 20 minutes to discover there was no working TV. We inquired the next day with the owner and he said he would contact the cable company and get on that soon... The entire home had notes in sharpie marker to let you know what the light switches were attached to, what to do with the shower buttons, how the water heater was limited and would be depleted quickly if you chose to do laundry, how to use the toaster... the notes were endless. He locked up the main closets in the master bedroom and put a bar with a sheet covering to create a closet and had labels made for this area to indicate this was our closet. The washer/dryer in the guest bathroom were jammed behind the bathroom door so you could not get dryer items out unless you closed the bathroom door - you got to do a dance with the doors with every load... The mosquitos were pretty marked since we abutted a canal in the back yard. This was explained in the property description but we had to run to get into the car and the house to avoid the attacks all day - much worse than we anticipated. The towels had stains on them (looked like huge rust stains?). The shower had a teeny tiny head and gave limited hot water spray (about 20 minutes and there were four of us sharing the home!). It had a small living room for the four of us and the kitchen floor was uneven. All in all, it definitely was not one of our favorite properties and we have traveled extensively with VRBO nationwide. We loved Roy's restaurant and the local scallop shuckers we found on 2nd avenue. We loved having our golf cart available and enjoyed exploring the area again. We will definitely return to Steinhatchee but we will unfortunately not return to this property. Nice owner - bad rental home....

Love Steinhatchee
We had a great time and enjoyed the convenience of being on a canal with access to the Gulf. Scalloping was awesome as usual. This was a very comfy place to stay, had all the necessities, and the owner was very attentive during our stay to make sure we were comfortable. Wonderful experience!

A group of 5 of us stayed here the weekend and it was perfect. The AC got cold and water pressure was great after a day on the water. The ride through the canal is about 5 minutes but note that we were topped out with a 21 foot boat. Be cautious of the tides. The property was located behind Kathy’s and was very convenient. Would definitely stay again!
