The house was just what we expected, the pool was great! The yard was awesome for our dogs. Close to several beaches, we really enjoyed Sanibel Island, visited Venice Beach&Fort Myers.Great shopping & restaurants nearby. Communication with the owner was excellent & check in was easy. Very convenient to everything! Would definitely stay again. Thanks Chris for a great vacation!

This house was great for our family (two adults, three kids) spring break. It was not too far to get out to the gulf from the channel on the boat. We were also within walking distance of a couple of fun restaurants. The kids loved the pool. The fenced in yard made it easy to bring the dog. Overall a clean quiet place for a nice family vacation.

Great location to explore Cape Coral, Fort Meyers and Beach, Matlacha, Sanibel and Captiva. Convenient to stores and for walking to several nice restaurants. Plenty of room in the house for family and/or friends. Any issues we had were quickly taken care of by the property manager.

Huge fenced in yard that my dog loved! Beds were comfortable, even though they creaked when you got in them. Thankfully we are a tall bunch, we would have had issues getting into the high beds if we weren’t. Pool was nice and warm and about 5 foot deep in the deepest part. Many DoorDash options. I want that huge couch in the entry area, seriously the most comfortable couch I have ever sat on! My only complaint would be that there wasn’t spare toilet paper, paper towels, or beach towels. All were easily fixed though with a run to the store. We left two beach towels there to add to the supply. Fantastic location and as long as you know the lock code is for the actual door (not the old school key box on the wall) it is a smooth check in process :-) Would definitely stay in again, and truly do wish I knew the manufacturer of that huge couch….totally epic setup!

Loved our stay! Quiet & peaceful neighborhood, great yard. The house is very spacious with plenty of room for everyone. The large lanai offers great outdoor time and the pool is perfect. Love the tile work in the pool that makes the dolphins and turtles appear to be 3-D!

We really enjoyed our stay. The pool was great, did have to be repaired a couple times during our stay but it didn't affect us having a good time. Location is great, short drive to beaches, and the restaurant/bar is within walking distance. Everything we needed for beach days was in garage and provided so we didn't need to purchase anything. Overall I highly recommend!!

We had a great time. Some unmentioned features are, the covered and lighted patio. We really enjoyed playing cards in the evening. Also, the garage. It was super nice to bring the kids and beach toys into the garage and not have to drag it all through the house. We hardly ever go to the same place twice, but if we did, it would be this place!

We had a fantastic stay! The house was at such a great location: on a quiet street but definitely not far from anything you could ever want or need. The beds were comfortable. The pool was fantastic! My husband and daughter also enjoyed fishing at the dock. We’re already planning another stay as we have family in the area and visit Cape Coral often. Thanks for a great vacation spot!

The location of this house was great and the pool kept our kids occupied every free minute! House could use some updating but that doesn't affect the experience for our trip. We would stay here again.

6/10

The house was in a great location however it was lacking a lot of things! There was only one washcloth and no pot holders in the entire house. Made for very creative ways of getting our food out of the oven. The whole house needs an extensive cleaning! Baseboards were filthy and it looked like none of the furniture was ever swept under. The only pieces of furniture that was nice were the beds. They were very comfortable! The rest of the furniture was worn and broken down. Sink in the one bathroom not attached to the bedroom leaked water ever time we used it. The pool and location is the only thing the house had going for it! The pool was a good size and had plenty of privacy from the neighbors.

My oldest son and I visited my younger son who lives in Cape Coral. House was clean, pool was great and location was outstanding! Couple of things... Baking dishes and flatware need to be replenished. I went looking for a dish to bake meatloaf and there was none. I had to borrow from my daughter in law. I was expecting some contact from Chris upon checking out. That did not happen so I hope we were adequate with our clean up! I checked my email and VRBO but I couldn’t find any communication. Hope I didn’t miss it! We had my two year old granddaughter visiting and she loved the pool. Overall we had a great time!!

This house had everything our family needed for our week-long vacation. Great common space to eat and gather; 3 bedrooms with comfy beds; handy kitchen; fun pool and nice canal view. Close to restaurants and shops. Would definitely stay here again!

We had a wonderful stay. We even extend 4 extra days. He house was great. It could use a few more dishes and maybe a pizza pan. It has 2 pizza cutters but no pizza pan 😂. The pool was wonderful and we used the grill several times. We enjoyed our family time and would do it again in a heartbeat! Our kids had a lot of fun fishing. There are stores and restaurants within walking distance which was awesome.

The location was fantastic! Close to restaurants, shops, and a great beach and pier in the neighborhood. The best part for our family was being able to take our puppies and allowing them so much room to roam and play outside in the fenced in yard. The kids loved the pool and the adults enjoyed just sitting outside enjoying the water view. It was relaxing, spacious and we had a wonderful time!
