Amazing and beautiful!

This was our second time staying here because we loved it so much the first time. If you love fishing, Kayaking, biking, sunrises and sunsets this is the place. Its quiet and peaceful minus the train that comes by every so often, but I enjoy it. The owner is super nice and is always available when needed. We will always come back here to visit.

Family time

We thoroughly enjoyed our time on this property! Layout was perfect for playing games as a group… There were nine of us as well as the dartboard, ping-pong table, and foosball tables in the garage. We were all able to sit in the living room to watch anything on TV. It was lovely having a fire pit and a beautiful beautiful view of the cove. Highly recommend this property for a getaway! The host was quick to respond to anything we . We would definitely stay here next time we are in the area!

Home away from home

Literally nothing negative to say. Beautiful home, beautiful view from the home, and the owner is an exceptionally friendly and accommodating host! We lost our home to a fire just before Thanksgiving and we have been jumping from house to house while they fix everything. This host worked with us on checking in early since we did not have anywhere to go. His home is impeccable and hands down our favorite house we have stayed in. We played ping pong, darts and foosball..we fished and just sat by the water relaxing. We will definitely be repeating our stay soon.

Relaxing view on the water

We loved our stay with perfect views. First thing we did was go to the water and saw mantees and a baby gater. Kayaking was awesome and very peaceful. The owner was very attentive and always got right back with us when we needed anything. We will definitely be back.

Better than expected!

Even better than the pictures online! A nice size quaint home with the most beautiful relaxing backyard view. And even though it rained most of the weekend, we still loved it! Great sitting areas for conversation, a ping pong table for competition, the railroad trestle and trains for excitement, and God’s beautiful creation of Spanish moss, lily pads, water, and trees right outside the back door!

So Relaxing!

Our stay here was amazing. We had 7 of us spending 4 days in town for a family wedding and needed a place to relax and have a home base for kids and grandparents around wedding festivities and this was exactly that. The house was spotless and just as described. The kayaking was amazing our kids would have moved in and stayed, and Fred is an amazing host, very responsive and supportive. We traveled from Vt with 3 kids, my mother in law and my wife’s 80+ year old grandmother, exhausted and we showed up and immediately relaxed and Fred had a bottle of wine on the table like he read our minds. Can’t recommend this place enough and look forward to visiting again!

Beautiful dog friendly water front property!

We celebrated my husband's birthday here. He wanted the following criteria: near water to kayak and near springs to swim, as well as a fire pit for a bonfire (men sure love their fires lol) We also needed to bring our small elderly dog with us. This property met all those requirements and more! Everyone has an amazing time! We waved at the trains passing by, enjoyed the dock, we even had manatees come RIGHT up to us to check us out!! We also saw a hummingbird! The owner/manager of the property was quick to respond, which was fantastic. Everyone in our 7 person group kept commenting on how lovely the property was, so you won't regret staying here. I highly recommend this location!

Going to the Chapel

We had a delightful stay at your home. My only complaint is not spending more time there! We were so involved in wedding festivities that our actual time there was limited. I will say that when we returned we were completely engulfed in a warm, inviting and clean home. Thank you for the wine that was awaiting our arrival. Coffee each morning on the deck was especially nice. I personally loved the train and YES it is close but enchanting. My grandchildren and grand pups did not arrive until Saturday afternoon but they availed themselves to the kayaking (well only one was old enough) the table tennis and corn holes! Great additions for guests as well as the dock for fishing. On a side note The Clay Theater is a great venue for a wedding. It is beautifully redone and a wonderful place to say I do. You should partner with them and provide a wedding retreat for the newlyweds! At least for the wedding night! Thank you again for opening your home. The grandchildren loved the train!!! In addition the dock was well lighted and was so beautiful at night to look at. A very peaceful and wonderful neighborhood. Barb

Good experience at Kayakers Retreat

Our stay at the Kayakers Retreat was a nice experience. We had plenty of room for six adults and two children under 12. Being able to sit on the deck and enjoy the view of the creek was nice. For two days in a row, we were able to watch three manatees feed next to the dock. A small alligator, rabbits, and squirrels were also observed. Kayaking on the creek was beautiful and having the kayaks and equipment on site was great! Our grandsons quickly made friends with some of the neighborhood children and had fun playing together. In addition, the garage had a ping pong table set up, which the boys enjoyed. As some other reviews have mentioned, the property is near the train tracks, but for most of our stay the trains passing by weren’t too bothersome. Overall, we enjoyed the property and would definitely stay there again.

Just What We Needed

My husband I, along with our two kids, ages 14 and 9, loved The Kayakers Retreat! House was beautiful and had everything we needed for the perfect, relaxing vacation. We saw manatee, birds, and turtles each day as we kayaked the beautiful creek. Also enjoyed our nightly dart tournaments in the garage. House is in a quiet location but still close enough for quick trips to stores and restaurants. Property manager answered all questions promptly and helped us secure reservation. I would highly recommend.

Fun with Kayaks

We really enjoyed our stay, especially kayaking up Governors creek. We saw a manatee!!! The train tracks were a little loud, but earplugs solved that, other than that, the house was super clean and comfortable. Frederic was very responsive to any questions we had and is a great guy. Frederic brought over a brand new Weber grill for our family BBQ. It was fun plucking a lime off the tree for our cocktails. :-) The lemon tree was also loaded with lemons, wish we had brought a juicer to make lemonade. We're looking forward to our next visit.
