Wonderful get away

The property is beautiful, with plenty of room to hang out and a huge kitchen too cook in. The outside area is great for gatherings and hanging out all day and has 2 fire pits to enjoy at night. A great vacation for family or friends. Communication with Mike, the owner, was always easy and he responded to issues and questions right away. We will definitely be back to stay again.

Beautitful & Spacious Home

Well maintained. Host quick to respond to any questions. Great place for a gathering of friends or family. Will look this host up again if we decide to return to Florida. The 75" TVs were a plus!! The Smaller TV on the Lanai has a Bose which made the music come through great

Lovely home in North Port

We loved staying in Northport! Mike has the house supplied with everything you could possibly want, plus he left us fresh flowers on the counter! The enormous screened in porch was incredible, the neighborhood was quiet and safe, the yard was beautiful, and the beds were comfortable. There were lots of shopping and dining options nearby, and Venice Beach is about a 20-30 minute drive. We would certainly come back and stay again!

Wonderful stay!

Location, comfort, and extras…this beautiful home had it all. Mike was an excellent host. The home is a short drive to stores, but tucked back in a very quiet neighborhood on a beautiful lot. Lanai, kayaks, yard, totally equipped kitchen, laundry, comfortable furniture…it was everything I hoped for and more!

About the host

Hosted by Mike ODonnell

I'm your host, Mike O'Donnell. My father and I purchased the house in 2021 as our full-time residence. It had been neglected for years and was a pretty sore sight. We had a blast renovating the place and turning it into a beautiful home. It was a labor of love for the better part of two years.

Throughout his life, my dad had the reputation of having the best lawn in the neighborhood. This house was his masterpiece. He truly loved this spot. It would be his last home and the one he was most proudest of. He passed away peacefully in Hospice in December 2023. I feel fortunate to have spent his final years with him working on the home. I suppose it will probably be my last home as well.

I am traveling these days to spend more time with my kids and grandkids. We have had a lot of wonderful family gatherings here and hope to have many more in the years ahead. I hope you will take good care of the place when I'm away and enjoy it as much as I do! Make some memories of your own. Nothing would have pleased my dad more.

Why they chose this property

The neighborhood is peaceful and quiet. Great for long walks and bike rides.

It seems like the house is tucked away in a remote corner of Northport, but it's only 9 minutes to city center, Publix, and restaurants.

What makes this property unique

Open floor plan. High ceilings. Tranquil setting. Lot's of privacy!

The wild life around the house is amazing -- and active. The lot to the left of the house is a protected space which is home to large burrowing tortoises. They will come into the yard to stretch on occasion. Birds flock to the feeders in the backyard. Blue heron and egrets love to perch on the dock rails. The tall pine tree in the back is host to large hawks.

Squirrels and rabbits love to frolic outback. On occasion you might spot a family of small bob cats first thing in the morning. They are shy; they only go by if you're indoors. On sunny days you can catch alligators swimming by the dock. They love to sun themselves on the shore across the canal.
