House was beautiful, conveniently located. Owner was quick to answer questions. The 6th bedroom wasnât actually a bedroom but was arranged to enable privacy. Pool and hot tub was very enjoyable. Weather was wonderful. Our family had a great time. All 13 of us!! Highly recommend.
We really enjoyed our stay. The home was absolutely beautiful and still had that homey, comfortable feel. There was also an abundance of amenities. We enjoyed the pool as well as fishing on the dock. We will definitely be back !!!
This property was perfect. The check in process was easy and communication with Peter was great. The house is beautiful and in a great location. Well stocked with anything we could need. We would certainly stay in their house again.
We are a group of 11, ranging from grandparents to grandchildren. I was so surprised to have such access to owner and his willingness to share from best beaches to house info (like staying at a family friendâs home). Very detailed about house info which is wonderful! Comfortable big sofa for the whole group to watch Big 10 tourney (note the headrests lean up for comfort :)
Pete & Linda have the perfect place for a family fun week. The kiddos, all generations, enjoyed the pool, hot tub and fishing off the dock. Everything you need is available-from fishing rods to pool âtoysâ to multiple living spaces both indoor and outdoor. Location is exceptional for access to all that SW Florida has to offer. Pete was more than helpful with instructions to use the âsmartâ home. Great place for creating awesome memories!
When stepping into this home, our first impression was 'wow'; when departing, our unanimous impression was 'wow, we are not ready to leave .' This was an exceptional home with an ideal location for us as our daughter's wedding and reception was at the Sheraton Harborside Tiki Hut. The owner is an excellent communicator, touching base several times to ensure that everything was to our satisfaction and that we did not have trouble with any of the technology in the home. I highly recommend this home if you want ample, relaxing and a fun space.
Our group consisted of three families of four; 6 adults and 6 kids. Each couple had a room and bathroom on the main floor and the kids took over the upstairs. Beach chairs and pool toys were plentiful. Loved drinking coffee while sitting at the table on the dock. Outdoor space was wonderful! Pete was accessible, responsive and checked in mid-trip to make sure all was good. Fantastic experience had and great memories made in this house!
We rented this house for a vacation with our adult children. It had everything that we needed and things we didn't even know we wanted! Plenty of room. Gorgeous views! The pictures didn't do the home justice! The owner was immediately available for any question or concern. Home was comfortable, well laid out and accessible to everywhere we needed to get to. We can't wait to come back!
We rented the house for a wedding in the area and had guests from my parents in their 80âs to my children in their 20âs. Everyone loved it! Large gathering places inside the house as well as in the beautiful pool area. Plenty of bathrooms for everyone to get ready. House was very clean and well stocked. Very good instructions on how to operate everything in the house. Pete was very attentive to any questions. Would highly recommend the rental.
Our experience was excellent!! Prior to arriving to the home. We had emails explaining everything with videos and clearly written instructions of the workings of the home. Upon arrival entering the home went very smooth. The house is laid out very well for our situation with different rooms to congregate. very workable kitchen, and beautiful pool with outside wet bar. The home owner was available for questions within minutes via a text any time of the day or night.
I give this stay a AAA +++ We will definitely return the next time we come to Florida
I have been renting vacation homes in Florida for 5 years. This house was one of the best. The pool was 2nd to none. We loved the layout and the location. We went out on the canal with the kayaks every morning. Even rented a boat for a few days and tied it off to the dock in the back of the house. One downside was only 1 TV in the house. With 7 people in the house it took some maneuvering to watch what you wanted. Neighbors Cliff and Judith are wonderful and very helpful with anything we needed. We will definitely be back!!!
This was a perfect house for our group of two couples and three 20-30 yr olds. Everyone with a bed, plenty of bathroom space. We cooked a lot and boy was that kitchen ready for us. Brand new appliances, plus so many extras. Grill was great also. No evidence of Ian at the Beeney Fun House! We used the kayaks, played pickleball in a nearby park, and had a day trip to Boca Grande for beach time and a dolphin cruise with Boca Boats. Visited the Botanical Gardens and Fisherman's Village in Punta Gorda. We did see a dolphin, rays and plenty of sea and bird life right in front of the dock at the house. Golfers were happy with selection of nearby public courses. Great communication with the owner. New to this area but plan to come back.
Loved being able to gather at this lovely home. There was space for family members who had to work remote while others played in the pool, etc. Kitchen was well stocked and the view was beautiful.
Owner knew we had 9 people sleeping at his home but did not instruct his cleaners to make beds for 9 people. This means after a long day of travel we had to hunt through the house and make beds.
Also, there was a blockage in the kitchen sink trap which we had to fix for him on the Friday after Thanksgiving as there was no back up handyperson. Guarantee we saved him an emergency holiday plumbing bill. Would have been nice if some gesture was extended beyond thanks.
Peteâs home is one of the best properties we had rented for our vacations. To start with, Peter is great communicator and most gracious host. Whenever we had any questions he answered promptly. The home is gorgeous and spacious. At one point we had 13 people in the house total and everyone was comfortable and did not feel overcrowded. We cooked a lot ourselves versus eating out and the kitchen was well stocked with all the tools, pans, pots and flatware. The home has lots of common and private areas. We enjoyed them all. We spend most of the time by the pool and at the dock. Love, love the outdoor setting. Fishing was a highlight of each morning and evening. Beautiful sunsets, never will get enough of those⊠every evening different. We also enjoyed wild life watching- from rabbit peacefully grazing to a family of ducks completing their evening swim. We hope to be back soon. Thank you, Peter for sharing your beautiful home with us!
We truly enjoyed our stay at this Vrbo. Everything was as stated in their description. Peter was very easy to communicate with. Our family enjoyed every minute!
My wife and I spent pre-Thanksgiving Holiday with our three adult children, their respective spouses and four grandchildren (yes, we were a big group!) and the house was a perfect fit for us!
Pete and Linda did an amazing job getting the house ready prior to our arrival and it was in great shape by the time we arrivedâŠyou never would have known that the eye of Hurricane Ian had passed over the top six-weeks earlier.
In addition, the little town I grew up in (Punta Gorda/Pt. Charlotte) is recovering nicely from the impact, and except for some remaining debris (neatly piled on the side of the road and being removed on a daily basis), all felt very normal with stores and restaurants open for business.
The house is perfectly situated if you, like us, have/rent a boatâŠwith new concrete dock and easy/direct access to Charlotte Harbor and beyond. We kept our boat at the dock the entire trip and it worked out perfectly.
The dock, canals and basin are also a great place to catch a fishâŠour granddaughters caught a few!
Lastly, we loved the configuration of the house and the ability to open it up to the pool and lanai via a fascinating array of disappearing sliding glass doors.
Pete is a great hostâŠvery accommodating, communicative and his hospitality and his house exceeded our expectations.
We canât recommend this house highly enoughâŠit was the perfect venue for a very special time with our family.
Great house and location on the water. The back dock and pool area are fabulous to hang out and chill. Lots of space inside and out for our group of 12. The kitchen was stocked with everything you could need too! Would definitely recommend for a fun stay.
Family trip for me, my husband, 87 yr old Mother, 2 daughters, and there families and the accommodations were perfect. When you go on vacation you usually sacrifice some of the comforts of home but not here. Master suite is amazing, from the walk in shower to the wireless chargers, the owners thought of everything. Very comfortable beds, abundance of linens, towels, blankets, pillows, & beach towels. We cooked BIG, with double oven, plenty of cookware, utensils, large dishwasher, and gas grill. If there is a negative, it would be storage bowls with lids for leftovers but we made do with zip locks(minor thing). Pool area had plenty of chairs for all but the area we loved the most was the dock area. My husband caught a 36â Black Drum the first day and one of my grandsons caught one even larger. Great fishing right in the back yard. We had 3 pick ups and 2 Jeeps and had no parking problems. Watch the videos provided prior to arrival and the house is well explained. We followed the map on the fridge and went to Boca Grande beach, most beautiful beach we have ever seen. No crowds, clear water, beautiful sand, swam with Manatees, and found shark teeth. It is about 40 miles away and cost $6 to get on the island and $3 parking fee but weâll worth it. Great shopping and the pricy $12 milk shakes were very good also. We had a small problem with the hot tub when we first arrived but the owner, Pete was easy to reach and very persistent in solving the issue as quickly as possible. If you want a Dream Vacation for your family, Donât pass up this place. Even the neighbor next door was a sweetheart.
Our family enjoyed this house greatly. It was very clean and there was plenty of room for 11 of us. The pool was a big hit with all the toys. Since we flew to FL from PA, it was nice that there were beach chairs, beach umbrella and coolers for us to use when we went to the beach. It was also nice that the house was so well stocked, i.e. coffee, toilet paper, condiments, etc., that we didn't need to run to the store for every little thing. We were able to text Peter with any questions and he replied almost instantly. We were very comfortable and enjoyed staying there very much. Great home!
