Roomy and best River view ever!

Though it is an old property with never ending items that could be updated, we’ve chosen to embrace home/property’s character and history and flow with it…tho the dock fishing was disappointing for the men folk, sighting the daily dolphins and the view was magnificent! And the hosts are the best!

Great stay if you like the view

The property was spectacular. I enjoyed my stay there. I loved the view looking out across the bay. Although I will admit that the curtains were a bit thin and wondered if people outside could see in. Beyond that though I really liked the vintage feel of the place. Next time I intend to bring more people along since the place seemed so huge for just a group of 6 people.

Beautiful getaway

This was an amazing protect for a quick getaway for me and my family! The house was nice with lots of light and very nice rooms, huge kitchen, lots of areas to sit and talk. The smash dish was nice and we got to see manatees swimming by! Walkable to the arts district and lots of restaurants. Better than advertised which you don’t see often.

Family Vacation

We had a group of 10 people ranging from ages 2-70. Everyone thought the property was gorgeous and we all had plenty of room to spread out. Great place to watch the sunrise!

Such a great time.

I was not prepared for the beauty of this old home. when we arrived the view and everything was just breathtaking! Was so worth the stay and we will be back. The home has history and it was very very clean everything you need is there. The manager is very easy to contact and replies fast. My family and I didn't want to leave it was so gorgeous to sit and watch the sunrise and sunset through the window or out in the yard. It was so wonderful you don't even want to go to the beach because you have waterfront view. I got to take my in laws my parents brother and kids there and it was very accommodating for all of us. everything was just so beautiful. The house is just so comfortable i didn't want to come home. Beach isn't far across the bridge, stores nearby, it's in a great location. I loved it here it's not a hot party area for young teens etc. it's very enjoyable and peaceful and I wish I were still there. words can't describe how awsome this vacation was. Everyone was impressed and went home satisfied and relaxed. Thanks for letting us enjoy this beautiful piece of history!!!! Will be back in the future!!!!
