A private waterfront setting, in the middle of 43 acres on Lake Ida

A private remote Island setting, a "FISHERMAN'S PARADISE" direct lake front, in the middle of 23 undeveloped acres. Plenty of wildlife; from birds to butterflies including our beloved peacocks (Lady Bird) perches on the fence and loves to entertain you. Ideal for artists, photographers, bird watchers, authors, athletes, kayaking, fishing (one of our guests won a $100 reward for catching a tagged Small Mouth Bass from our dock, see recent photo) or simply watching water skiers , boaters, jet skiers, paddle boarders, ("LET US ENTERTAIN YOU") . Just 22 blocks from Delray's buzzing nightlife; shopping, museums, antique shops and 5 star restaurants. The Avenue is home to "The Delray Affair, Art on the Avenue, various food tasting events, the Green Market, Garlic Festival, Wine Tasting events and more. Every weekend hosts a special event of some sort. Or just a casual walk to Atlantic Ocean to swim, sail, surf or eat at one of the famous beach restaurants. Holidays host firecracker events, yoga at sunrise, Christmas Boat Parade. Lake Ida participates in our own resident Decorated Boat Parade. Grab our kayak, and tag along enjoying the shoreline multi-million dollar decorated waterfront homes. At 7am each morning (weather permitted) you can watch our mysterious water skiers practice jumps and tricks of all kinds. Never a dull moment, but privacy and seclusion prevail.

Amazing Stay

This is such a beautiful property and the weather was amazing. Arlene was so kind and accommodating. I loved the cozy room, it was so comfy for me! Kayaking around the lake was very relaxing, and I caught a bunch of fish too: Peacock Bass, Clown Knifefish, Snakeheads, Gar and Catfish. There's even more species of fish in this lake too. Seeing the peacocks and iguanas around the property was so cool. I would definitely come back, and hope to soon! Arlene's great!

Peaceful retreat

I was overly impressed by the location, right on the lake. The grounds are kept immaculate and the people there were extremely nice. I felt completely at peace during my extended stay. They kept me informed about cleaning times and anything that may come up. I would highly recommend this place. It is definitely a getaway so close to downtown Delray.

Great little place

I thoroughly enjoyed my stay. Arlene was always responsive and accommodating. The place is perfect for 1 or 2 people, in a beautiful, quiet setting, right on the water. Easy drive to the beach and downtown Delray. I would definitely return!
