We enjoy staying on the water whenever we travel and it's one reason why we chose this home. Unfortunately we didn't get to enjoy it due to the very cold weather in FL during our stay.
The house was clean and welcoming, making us feel relaxed and at ease right away. It is not a pristine property as there is some wear and tear, but it's what makes the property feel like a home.
The yard is big and one of our kids enjoyed playing with a few cats that strolled around the exterior and were super friendly. The beds were comfy, the home was warm and well heated during those cold days.
Communication with Gary before and during our stay was easy and quick. For example, the master bathroom has a large tub that I wanted to use, but couldn't, due to hot water running short. Gary was there within 5 minutes. That was great.
But, the hot water issue is why I'm giving this home 4 instead of 5 stars. There wasn't' enough hot water for showers, let alone a bath, even after Gary worked on fixing the situation. It's a shame to have that big bath tub (no shower in the master bathroom) and not be able to soak in it due to not enough hot water to go round.
Overall, though, this was a great home to just relax in and we felt very free here. If the weather had been good enough, we would have fished in the water or sat on the deck and enjoyed the beautiful outdoor space, too.
Thank you for letting us stay and feel welcomed at your lovely home, Gary.
