Inviting Venice Home with Old Florida Charm Close to Everything
Welcome to your Venice getaway! This spacious, comfortable home is the perfect base for enjoying everything the area has to offer. Inside, you’ll find a Brunswick billiards table in excellent condition with brand-new Simonis 860 cloth and new bumpers, lightning-fast 500 Mbps fiber internet, and keyless electronic entry for easy, secure access. The renovated pool room features its own large-screen TV—perfect for relaxing after a day in the sun. Just off the kitchen is a bright and inviting Florida Room, complete with two recliners, a hide-a-bed couch, and another large-screen TV. It’s a wonderful spot for morning coffee, reading, or accommodating extra guests. Step through the Florida Room into the screened-in lanai, furnished with a table and chairs—ideal for outdoor dining, card games, or simply unwinding in the fresh air without the bugs. The kitchen is fully equipped and welcoming, with seating at both the table and the island. You’ll feel right at home in this tropical setting, conveniently located near all of Venice’s best attractions. For outdoor fun, take advantage of two bicycles to explore the famous Legacy Trail, just 2.5 miles away. Head to the beaches with the provided chairs, umbrellas, and shark-tooth hunting scoops, or enjoy fishing at the Venice Pier, only 5 miles from the home—no saltwater license required. Fishing poles, tackle, a bait bucket, and a cooler are all available for your use. Golfers will love having 10 excellent courses within five miles, while nature lovers can explore Oscar Scherer State Park for hiking, canoeing, fishing, and swimming. In spring, catch Atlanta Braves Spring Training at CoolToday Park, just 7 miles away. Downtown Venice is also nearby, offering great dining, charming shops, and a relaxed coastal vibe. For everyday convenience, a Walmart Supercenter is just one mile away. Additional amenities include a Canon printer, golf clubs, and pet-friendly accommodations with owner approval (pets must be on long-term flea & tick prevention). Seasonal note: January through April requires a monthly booking. Shorter stays outside these months may be approved by the owner.

Great communications and response from friendly owner made our stay enjoyable. Central location to Venice and Englewood gives quick access to shopping, beaches, and restaurants. Home was very well equipped. Would definitely visit again!
Very spacious, lovely clean home. Pictures do not show how expansive this home is. Charlie is a very good host. He contacted us to make sure we arrived ok and was quick to respond if we had questions about the property. We are looking forward to our next visit! Thanks for the great stay!
Charlie’s home was close to friends we wanted to visit and located near good restaurants and beaches. He was available via text for all our questions. The house is clean, comfortable and equipped with everything we needed.
We have family locally and this home was perfect for us so that we were close to all of the fun but had our own space and could bring our pet, if needed. We will be back!
This is our second stay and can’t say enough good things about Charlie. He is very attentive and responsive! the property is beautiful well maintained, nice neighborhood We Can’t wait for our next stay! Thanks again Charlie you are a great host.
Wonderful house located in a good neighborhood. Convenient to beaches and restaurants. Layout of the house is very good. Our pet really enjoyed the property. Great response from the owner. Recommend!
Good location to manasota beach,just a few minor glitches with tv and garage remote. No lawn service so yard needed attention after 1 month. Overall a good stay
Feels just like staying at home, but with the great Florida weather. Everything exceptional, comfortable and easy to use. Wonderful having a garage, and the location is first rate. Would recommend the property to anyone. Service from the owner and property manager, although no problems needed service, was exceptional, excellent recommendations for local activities and the book showing reviews of area facilities was very helpful.
This property was perfect for us; from the screened in lanai to the double garage where we could keep our small fishing boat out of sight. Charlie the owner was very responsive and nice. Highly recommend this property for families also as it is close to great beaches and hiking trails as well as kayaking, etc. We hope to be able to come back next year!
Charlie was a wonderful host. The house was perfect for me and my cats. He was very accommodating when I needed extra days. Wouk’s recommend staying here.
This home was perfect, simple and had everything necessary to have a relaxing time. There are three close public beaches, shopping, and dinning anywhere you would like. Some household items were dated. We spend most of our time outside so this was no bother. The owner kept in contact to make sure our stay was going well. We travel often and appreciate owners who care.We would stay here again and appreciated the allowance of our fur baby!
Property was as described, very comfortable and roomie (I’d might suggest a slightly bigger bed for couples in master room) then again I’m not the smallest guy either. Charles was very helpful and communication was top notch. He has fishing equipment and bikes available for the guests and not to mention the ferry pass that we used a lot. Thank you for a memorable stay.
We enjoyed our stay at Charlie’s house. Finding a rental that accepts pets can be difficult. I was so happy to find Charlie’s place available when we planned our last-minute trip with our elderly cat. The home is very comfortable, clean and had everything we needed for our 2 week stay. The layout of the house is great. Although it was just two of us, I can see how this home would work well for a family. Others mentioned having issues with the TV but we had no problems. Charlie had recently installed a new one. The weather here was beautiful in November with pleasant temperatures. Kitty preferred to spend time outside in lanai so I ended up putting her litter box out there during the day. Since she is 4 pawed declawed I didn’t have to worry about her scratching/damaging the screens. The location of the house makes it convenient to the beaches, shopping and whatever else you might want to do in the Venice area. I would definitely recommend Charlie’s home.
This was a very quaint house on a corner lot. There was quite a bit of traffic but that didn't bother us. It met all our needs. Charlie was great and we texted several times during the week making sure we were comfortable and getting to know each other. Our 2 dogs were so happy and loved the lanai. We would have spent more time out there if it wouldn't have been so hot. The house manager, Karen, was great too and lives locally. We only had about 10 days and it rained every morning so we didn't get to go to the private beach. I would have rented it again for our winter extended stay but it is already reserved. We will definitely stay again!
Thanks for opening your home to us, Charlie!

Wonderful area for biking. Trails along Venetian waterway beautiful. Caspersen beach & Venice beach lovely. Saturday farmers market in downtown Venice fun. Target & Publix close. Detwiler farmer market the best!
Charles & Karen couldn’t have been nicer! Kitchen & Florida room our favorite!
Hopefully we’ll be back in 2023! Thanks a million!
My husband and I came here for our honeymoon and had an amazing time. The house is very spacious and in a great location, with lots of wildlife from the forested lot next door. Charlie is an incredible host and made sure that we had everything we needed. I would definitely recommend this property!
