We loved this cute little house right on the canal. We sat out and looked at stars and chatted each evening. The couch was comfy for watching a movie and the beds were also comfortable. It was the right fit for us - not too elaborate or expensive but still very cute and convenient. Book this for your next trip to the area! ##### Karen P.

We had a wonderful experience at this property. It's in a beautiful spot with great views day and night, inside and out. There is an abundance of outdoor space and seating and a couple of large umbrellas. Inside, the air conditioning works great even with the 100 degree days. The interior is nicely decorated and comfortably appointed. We found it to be incredibly clean. Everything we needed was there. There was a slight snag with check in, but the property manager went above and beyond to make up for it. Also worth mentioning is the no-fuss check out procedure. Again, is was a wonderful stay. ##### Stacie D. Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2025
