Cute little bungalow

This house is exactly as advertised. It's not a big house, but suited us very well. The fact that we were able to bring our 2 labs sealed it for us. It was our 1st trip to Hudson & we loved the area. Good restaurants, activities to do & plenty of birds & dolphins to watch.

House hunting

This is our second trip to Hudson. We plan on buying a vacation home in the area so this trip was a house hunting trip. The boatyard property was perfect for our needs. The yard is secure and well lit. The house was clean and decorated well for the beach area. We would highly recommend.

Very nice place to stay in Hudson Florida

We stayed at this 2 bed 2 bath home for a few nights to be near family that was visiting in the area. The back yard was awesome. We say so many birds and ducks in the canal. The patio included a gas grill, table and sofa as well as lounge chairs for sun bathing. The host was very responsive when I had a few questions. We would definately recommend this to anyone staying in Hudson.
