Gold Coast Estates::
Our home is located in a very nice single family neighborhood with canal front & river front homes. It is an affluent neighborhood & is very quiet and mostly owner occupied. It is a very safe & attractive area that is great for morning or evening walks. Gold Coast Estates lines the eastern bank of the Caloosahatchee and basically spans the midpoint bridge to the Cape Coral bridge. Cape Coral is a large city, and different areas of Cape Coral have very different flavors and settings. This is one of the best, if not the best area of Cape Coral & southwest Florida. Our neighbors are a mix of families and retirees. We have absolutely never seen any crime or had concerns of crime in all the years that we have been there. This is the first year that we are marketing our house for vacation rentals, hence the many openings on the calendar. Previously, we made it availlable only to friends & family. Our kids are getting older & it is more difficult for us to spend extended time here.
Things To Do::
Of course, at the house you can swim, fish off the dock, hang out by the pool, lay in the hammock between 2 palm trees, sunbath on the dock, go for a walk, go for a boat ride, or just read a good book by the canal.
In the immediate vicinity of the house, you can go to the Ecological Preserve that is 3 minutes away, rent kayaks and explore, enjoy fine dining, shopping, go to a movie Cinema complex, go to the Cape Coral Water Park (when open), go to the Cape Coral beach in the yacht club area, visit the spring training facilities of the Red Sox or the Minnesota Twins, go golfing, and more.
Within a 30 minute drive, you can go ParaSailing, windsurfing, jet-skiing, shelling, go to some great beaches (Sanibel, Captiva, Ft. Myers Beach, Estero Beach), visit the art community of Matlacha and Pine Island.
If you are so inclined to travel a little farther away, Naples, Marco Island, Miami, Orlando, Tampa, Everglade City, are all between 1 and 2-1/2 hours away!
Weather, Water, and Sunshine::
Sunny warm weather, beautiful lush palm trees, sandy beaches, warm oceans, rest and relaxation. Need we say more!
Our boat in on the lift and ready to take you on scenic rides for a fee. Depending on the skill and experience level of the renter we may consider allowing use of the boat, self-captained for a fee. This will be determined on a case by case basis. For most rentals, we will supply a captain to take you and your family for relaxing rides.
