My family had a wonderful time staying at this cozy property. We spent four days paddle boarding to the spring, manatee watching and fishing, and one day at Pine Island Beach. The four seasons room was a nice hangout to still feel like we were outside when it was cold a couple days. The home was very clean and seemed very recently renovated. The kitchen was stocked with almost everything you would need to cook any meal with the only pan missing being a flat sheet pan. There were plenty of blankets, towels ect when we curled up on the couch and played the many games and watch movies. A fire pit would have been nice for those cooler days but there was a fire ban anyways so likely couldnt use it. Marguerita Grill was fun and close and also recommended the Freezer. The restaurant by Monkey Island had a great view. Would highly recommend this home to anyone.
