Just what we needed
We enjoyed the location/distance to my family who live in South Venice. The space was perfect for our family of 3. Had a garage to park inside if you wanted. The hosts were present at check in even though we got in late. They Communicated the water conditions at the beach when a rip current was in effect. Would be perfect for anyone there to visit the beach, they had all the beach necessities so you wouldn’t need to bring anything with you. Would definitely stay there again.

Convenient access to beaches and shopping needs
The rental was clean, conveniently located to beaches and shopping, and a pleasant place to relax after a busy day in the area. The rental is a guest house in the back tucked behind the owner’s house. All went well with our stay.

Great Vacation Spot!
My husband and I, along with our 3.5 month old, spent a long weekend here and it’s the perfect spot! Great location! It’s quiet but also close to everything. The beds are comfortable and the hosts thought of everything. For our baby, we set up the pack n play in the second bedroom and they even provided an inflatable infant bathtub. The house was very clean and we would 100% stay here again!

Perfect!
This was perfect for our family of 3. The house is very spacious. We saw blue jay and cardinals in the yard every day. The beach was about a 6 min drive away. This was a great place to stay and we definitely recommend this home. Kathy and Jerry were great hosts! We loved vacationing here.

Delightful Cottage
This cottage is amazing! So clean and comfortable. We loved that it is only a few miles from a beautiful white sand beach! Perfect location tucked away on a dead end road made it wonderfully quiet and private. Having a garage was a plus and having it stocked with beach chairs, shell rake and other beach supplies was a blessing. The host was very welcoming and had great communication with us. We loved it and hope to go back in the future!

Explore and Relax
The home was excellent—just the right space for my teenage son and me as we visited family. The bedrooms and bathroom were nice, and the living space and outdoor patio area were great. The only minor issue was the neighbor, who has dogs, and they would be out barking late at night, but that was not the hosts' fault; it is just something to be aware of.

Little bit of paradise!
Great little place! Close to a lot of the beaches and cool park down the street. Jerry and Kathy are very nice and friendly. The only complaint I have has nothing to do with the rental ,but the neighbor's dogs may wake you in the morning. Overall it was a great experience and it was a bonus that Jerry and Kathy are a brother and sister in Christ. They are a blessing!
