Meticulously clean, with an awesome location and an outdoor setup that makes you never want to leave. We had a few problems arise but the owner was quick to respond. Just a heads up, there is one dishwasher pod, one detergent pod, and 2 garbage bags for the week. We’ve rented many homes in beach towns and found it a bit odd that there was no cooler, beach chairs, can coozies, etc. Also, this was the first host that didn’t leave a welcome basket or note of any kind. That being said, we had a wonderful time. The house really is spectacular.. ##### Amy B.

I am very glad the owner was able yo help me book as vrbo had a glitch. The place is decorated very nicely, feels nice and cozy. The bbq came in handy as we made some steaks our first nice. The pool was great after that nice meal. Interior was very welcoming, great design choice. Just look at the pictures its a great representation of what to expect. At night the whole back yard is lit by accent lighting, and under the dock there are lights in the water where you will see fish circling. As you can tell we were very happy with our stay. 10/10, you wont be disappointed ##### Capt R.

The property was a perfect fit for our family of five. The house itself was stunning, clearly reflecting the effort put into updating the interior. Although the beach was just a short drive away, we found it hard to leave the house, as the backyard provided us with endless entertainment. The pool and hot tub were nothing short of amazing, and we enjoyed spending most of our time there. Thanks to the provided stand up paddle boards and kayaks, we ventured out to explore the picturesque canals surrounding the area, creating unforgettable memories together. The abundance of seating outdoors allowed us to comfortably unwind while making s'mores over the fire pit, creating a sense of tranquility and relaxation. Overall, The River Shack provided the perfect oasis for our family to unwind, making our stay an unforgettable experience. We would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a delightful retreat in Bonita Springs, Florida. Our host, Nardi, made our stay at The River Shack even more special. He went above and beyond to ensure our comfort and was incredibly accommodating throughout our time there. When he stopped by to check on us, we had a pleasant chat, and his warm and friendly nature made us feel right at home. It's the personal touches like this that made us feel like family and truly made our experience memorable. We are grateful for his hospitality and plan to return for another stay! ##### Derek R.
