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.

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.
We so enjoyed our short stay here. The grounds are beautiful, complete with fascinating neighborhood peacocks. Our host couldn't have been nicer. She made sure we felt right at home. I hate to leave!
This property was perfect for our kids to stay near our monthly rental! Arlene was welcoming and efficient. The room was exactly what we were looking for and in a perfect location! Thanks for the hospitality!
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!
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.
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!
