Relaxing home away from home
Review Submitted: December 5, 2010
Date of Stay: November 2010
We enjoyed our vacation in this great old Florida style home with a saltwater canal right in the back yard. We sipped our morning coffee sitting in comfortable oversized chairs looking at the water as the sun rise changed the color of the skies. One of our favorite moments was to watch a Blue Heron about 3 feet tall glide down the canal and onto our dock to fish for breakfast! The home is on a quiet street and shopping is conveniently located near by. We found the home furnishings to be well appointed in Florida island style and the kitchen fully equipped for our stay. It was a short walk or even quicker bike ride to the beach park for some lounging with a book, watching the birds and dolphin, or fabulous sunsets. Many of our favorite spots on the Gulf Coast were a short drive away, and we suggest you try out all the beach locations that seem to offer different settings, like a beach side restaurant, secluded walks, or great shelling. The owners gave us some great suggestions for near by restaurants and were helpful with making our vacation a memorable one. We will definitely be returning for another vacation and highly recommend this home.

Owner's Response: We are happy that your family had a wonderful vacation in Florida. It was a pleasure having you stay in our home and hope you will return for future vacations. It is our intention to continue to improve the property and accessory items to make it as complete an experience as possible. Check back with us often to hear about our most recent upgrades such as the canoe that we added during your stay that can now be used by all future guests to explore the canals and other local waters, so thanks again for the great suggestion. Be sure to ask about our repeat guest discounts when scheduling your next vacation.
