Hosts were super welcoming with a note and some Super Bowl treats. The house was fully stocked with everything we needed to cook and live for a week. Large backyard perfect for our dog to chase the ball or hang out. Use of garage a bonus!

House was perfect. 3 miles from beach. Host very helpful and they provide more than I expected. I saved a lot of money not having to buy paper towels, cleaning supplies, trash bags, paper plates, toilet paper, shampoo, conditioner, body wash and soaps, etc. the beach supplies were awesome as well. We look forward to coming back

Most Awesome Place

Wonderful, charming, comfortable and convenient place to stay! The hostess and host are lovely people who we can be comfortable with! It is cutely decorated with beach theme! All the conveniences of home and then some! We’ve stayed several times over the years and will continue to, as long as its available! We’ve already booked next year and may book again for the fall if we can fit it in our schedule! Love this place and our hosts, Cathy & Jerry! We always feel welcomed and accommodated there!

Birthdary trip

We were celebrating my nephew's girlfriend's 21 birthday. The house was amazing. It was clean and had everything we needed. Kathy was so nice and helpful. We were less than 2 miles from the beach. The beds were comfortable, the decor was beach themed and very relaxing. I will be staying here again.

Fantastic worry-free stay!

This place was perfect for my kids and I and our husky. Everything that you could possibly need was available inside the home. Private and beautiful. The master room was perfect and had a roomy washer and dryer closet with full length mirror that I planned to buy when I got there and didn’t need to once I saw there was one! My kids loved the tree swing! I had my own personal issues while there and they were so empathetic and understanding and worked with me making it much less stressful on that end. They even had beach toys and chairs to use! We will be back next month!

Serendipity

From the moment I opened the door I knew that I had found the perfect vacation rental. The House was immaculate and stocked with everything one would need for a trip away from home. Each of the two beds were very comfortable, the water in the soer was hot, there were more than enouch twel, sheets, etc. It was evident that care was taken in the choosing charming decor and the comfort of the guest. It was a true delight sitting on the porch and drinking coffee each morning. Kathy (the host) kept in touch from the moment I booked the stay to the last day. I LOVED my stay here.

Lovely property!

We stayed as a family of 4, two adults and two kids plus our 8lb dog. Property is a detached mother in law type of property that is very well maintained and clean. Hosts were incredibly responsive and kind. The location is ideal just a couple of minutes to Manasota Beach which is great to find shark teeth. Very private and spacious outdoor area with swing. We were comfortable and had great wifi. The added laundry room and spacious garage were a huge plus! We have stayed in MANY vacation rentals and this one was one of our favorites because it was clean and comfortable. Look forward to staying again!

This little cottage is perfect for a get away. We booked this for a small girls trip and we loved it from start to finish. The cottage made us feel so safe and secure. The house smelled clean and was SO nice. The host was also very quick to respond. It is also a very close drive to the beach. We will definitely book again.

Just what I needed!

This was exactly as I had hoped for! It was in a quiet area, and private, but yet close enough to the beach to just jump in the car and go! The owners are wonderful and communicate quickly. This little hidden gem is a must when in Venice! My little four legged baby enjoyed being able to roam and play, or just sit on the back patio and relax! Oh, and you truly don’t need anything except your suitcase! The owners have everything you need waiting for you!
