Floating Paradise
Beautifully decorated, modern, spic n span.
This gem has all the necessities you would need to spend a relaxing time on the water.
Close to town with restaurants to meet any desires from sandwiches to steaks. Take a walk along Lake Monroe enjoying the outdoors. Enjoyed our stay and will probably return.

Wonderful Sanford waterfront floating cabin
Owners are great folks. A/C works perfectly, clean, great bed, large fridge and the best location in Sanford. What else does a couple need. Don't pass this one up.

Best way to see Sanford
This was better than staying in a hotel. It was very clean and nicely decorated. kitchen is well equipped with nice dishes and pots and pans. Wish it had a keurig. The bed was very comfy with nice bedding. living room has a nice tv and comfy clean furniture. The shower had great pressure and there was plenty of hot water. The upper outdoor deck was great. the furniture could be replaced, but it didn't stop us from enjoying it every night. There is a grill, but it is electric. All of the neighboring boat's were very friendly and respectful. No loud parties. You don't know that you are on a boat when inside. the boat is well tied off. It has enough room for 2 adult's and maybe a child. Would definitly love to stay here again.

Individual get away
This property was exactly what I hoped it would be. I was traveling by myself, visiting some friends, and wanted a place to just get away and relax. I really enjoyed sitting on the deck overlooking the water having breakfast, and at night just unwinding with a cup of coffee. I will definitely be back.

Simply amazing!
This is basically a cool apartment on the water, normal bathroom, shower, and kitchen appliances. The best boat house we have ever stayed on and that has been a few. A must stay if you are in the area.
