Perfect location, clean and has all the things needed for our annual fishing trip. Wouldn’t stay anywhere else. Awesome time in Tuna Town USA. Speckled trout were flying in the boat. Google : Jamie Taylor Guide Service for an awesome day of fishing on the bayou.

Perfect spot for going Fishing

Had an amazing stay, the owner was phenomenal to deal with, could not have been better, had some rough weather and went back and forth with owner until the captain decided we had a good enough weather window and were going to send it, we fished with Bob Hovey at LA Bluewater charters and this spot could not possibly be better located to fish with those guys as you walk right out the front door and step on there boat because that’s right where the store them, house boat had everything we needed for our stay and was cleaner and nicer then we even expected the group gave it a 10/10 and will most definitely be returning here for any trip to venice in the future regardless of size of our party

Great stay in Venice!

Great spot and convenient: clean, good size for larger groups, and within walking distance to the marina and restaurant. Our inshore fishing guide picked us up right at the back door. Nice ice machine too. Enjoyed watching the tuna boats coming into the marina in the afternoon. Doug is great, A++

Best location on the water in Venice!

The owner was very easy to deal with. The cabin was perfect for two boys, two dads and two grandads. We had a clean, comfortable place to live, cook, eat and sleep while fishing the local waters. Our charter boat Captain picked us up from the back porch of our cabin. Only wish be had book a longer stay - we will be back.

Fishing

Our very experienced guide had not picked up fishermen from this location before. We fed him a couple of dinners and he was very impressed with the accommodations compared to nearby locations. There were only two of us in this large floating house but, we thoroughly enjoyed every square foot! Location to Crawgators bar/resturaunt is a plus.We usually cook extravagant dinners and the kitchen was well stocked with pots, pans, cooking sheets, etc. This was our third trip to Venice for fishing. We will only stay here from now on.

Big time save

My original verbo that I booked cancelled on me just hours before check in and verbo wasn’t being much of a help when I was stranded with no where to stay 17 hours from home but when I found this spot he answered extremely fast and was up front honest and a huge help definitely will be coming back

Everything was great. House was clean and very nice.

Loved the house and the way it was laid out. We had 5 in our group and everyone had plenty of space. Owner was great as well and communicated with us throughout the process to make sure we had everything we needed. I would recommend this to any of my friends and family and I will for sure be back. Thanks again.

Excellent Venice Property

The Dorado is a clean, well maintained houseboat perfectly located in the heart of Venice Marina. The boat Captains pick you up and drop you off at the property. The property is well stocked with pots. pans, dishes, utensils etc.. Ice machine works great with a large capacity for daily use. The back deck is perfect in the evening as it faces east. Charcoal grill is provided for convenient cooking. Doug, the owner, is very responsive and personable. All around, this property is perfect for a group of 6 anglers to have a very comfortable stay.
