Wonderful visit!!!

House is very clean, with all the amenities needed. Very close to the beaches, but far enough away to not have beach traffic as an issue. The pool was refreshing, and the dock in the back peaceful to observe all the fish! This is a great choice!of a place to stay in Nokomis!

Family fun

The home was wonderful, had everything we needed. Loved the pool, it was so easy to use it. Home was well stocked, had beach towels, beach chairs/umbrella, kayaks, multiple bikes, even toys for the pool. Location is near multiple beaches, biking trails and many restaurants. We greatly enjoyed our vacation.

Lovely home

We stayed at Nokomis with our family of 5 and really enjoyed our time there. The house was clean, uncluttered, and well equipped. We loved having access to the canal for fishing, the kayaks to explore on, and the pool to cool off in. The home has quick and easy access to many nearby beaches, a grocery store near by, and a selection of restaurants to pick from.

Great house, clean and cheerful

Well kept property with great amenities including heated screened pool, canal, and kayaks. Rooms were spacious. Supplies in kitchen were plentiful. New washer and dryer. Small items such as soap, shampoo, k-cups, sweetner were welcome unexpected amenities. Safe and quiet neighborhood. Sorry we weren’t there longer.

Kayaking Holiday!

This property was exactly as described. The location was excellent for our needs and interests. We enjoyed the dock for relaxing while watching lovely sea birds and sunset and also stargazing at night. The surrounding area was quiet and peaceful, even over the busy holiday vacation time of year! Our host was welcoming and responsive, although we had no issues to resolve. Everything was as we hoped. The house was also spotless upon our arrival, which I greatly appreciated. I highly recommend this vacation rental! Thank you for the fun time!

Overall it was awesome! Pool was smaller than what we wanted when looking around, the picture of the living room needs updated as we were expecting huge sectional couch to fit all of us but it was a normal couch that fits 3 to 4 people. That’s my only less negative thing to say. It was a great home, awesome location, all the fun stuff that the host provided for usage, such as pool accessories, bikes, kayaks, fishing gear, etc. it was a nice touch and used. Our family enjoyed it. We are already talking about coming back to the area possibly spring break.

Wonderful property!

This adorable property exceeded our expectations. The location is perfect, the house feels spacious, updated, and clean, and the dock was just what we needed- relaxing, comfortable, and perfect evening entertainment (the fish light is amazing)! The host provided great communication and set us up for a wonderful vacation. I hope it works out for us to come back again!
