Relaxing Retreat

Our stay was amazing! The house is wonderful! It is situated among large trees and lush landscaping making it feel private and secluded, but is also close to stores and restaurants. The wrap around porch and pool area were very relaxing. We would definitely stay here again. Philip and Linda are great host!

We loved everything about this house! The tropical landscaping is gorgeous and adds to the private and secluded feel of the property. The dock was a hit. We saw fish, sharks, and a manatee. Plenty of room for our 22 ft boat. We had everything we needed and more. The host was quick to respond to our questions and truly the luckiest person to own this beautiful home

Resort Vibe, just relax vacation spot!

We loved everything about this vacation home. Well taken care of with plenty of things to do. Fished off the dock, caught some neat fish, saw manatees swimming next to the dock, quick kayak trip, bicycle ride to the beach a few times, and lots of pool time too. So convenient to the stores and great restaurants in the area. The house had everything you need for amenities. Amazing 8 day stay of enjoying this tropical private retreat. Gorgeous property inside and outside and would stay again. Don't pass up booking this Marathon property. Hidden Gem.

Our Private Resort

That's what it felt like, our own private resort. The abundant flora and fauna had us totally isolated from neighboring properties yet we still had a lovely and expansive view of the lagoon where we saw dolphins and manatees. The home was lovely both inside and out. The house description did not do it justice, it was even more beautiful than listed. We had use of numerous outdoor equipment, washer/dryer, well equipped kitchen, and a very, very relaxing pool and garden area. I can not see another rental experience ever being as nice as this. Oh, and communication with the owners was very quick. "Thank you" to the home owners.

Everything we hoped for!!

This home and location was everything we had hoped it would be! Beautiful, comfortable, relaxing. We enjoyed the screened in porch, relaxing with coffee in the mornings and with a cocktail in the evenings. We enjoyed many hours in the and around the pool, and especially watching the many lizards coming out to win themselves poolside. Biking and kayaking were also activities we enjoyed when we were out exploring the area. Highly recommend this home and these hosts!!

No False Advertisement!

Staying at the Mockingbird Lane property is truly like staying at your own little private resort. The property is beautifully landscaped and the house and screened porch met our needs perfectly! The Burkarts are gracious and accommodating hosts! Minus the weather (Hurricane Milton) we could not have loved our stay more! We will definitely visit Mockingbird Pointe again!
