We stayed here for a lacrosse tournament in the area. The home was immaculate and beautiful. The 3 bedrooms are large with very comfortable beds. The bathrooms are clean and updated and come with bath towels. The outside in the backyard is amazing. There’s even an outside kitchen and a lot of seating. The owner was so nice and flexible. I hope to get back for an actual vacation!

Great Week

Visited family that lives on the island and this was a perfect place to stay! It was quiet, clean and relaxing. It was close enough to the island without being in all the traffic. Communication with owners was easy and attentive. We will definitely stay here again!

Best VRBO Ever!

Let me start by saying, we have stayed at many vacation rentals all over the country in the past 5 years and unfortunately we have high expectations based on pricing. I can tell you that this VRBO met and totally exceeded our expectations. The previous reviews are correct, the pictures do not do it justice at all! This place is completely remodeled and immaculate...even the baseboards are perfectly cleaned all throughout the house. There was not one spec of dust anywhere and no corners were cut where anything was concerned. The kitchen is well stocked with all cooking utensils, there is plenty are plenty of comfy places to sit and eat or to just relax. The pool area is crystal clean and my kids loved that it was deep! The dock looks brand new, it was cleaned off perfectly, no bird poop anywhere on any of the chairs (loungers and tiki chairs). Maureen even had fishing poles ready to go for fishing. You can fish for hours off the dock, with frozen shimp and catch a variety of fish. The kayaks were in perfect shape too, not old and beat up. The 4 bikes were in perfect shape. I mean this place was amazing. 10/10 isn't even enough compared to other places. Maureen was always quick to respond if we had questions and we would definitely stay here again. The neighborhood was completely quiet and very safe.

Awesome! Highly recommend.

This home was perfect for us, well kept, very clean, and well stocked. Fished for hours right off the dock. Owner was very responsive and accommodating. Such a comfortable relaxing home, you are able to isolate, enjoy some peace and quiet, yet not far from restaurants and other conveniences. If you like to fish and relax. Stay here you won't be sorry.

Great Property

Location was easy to get to and from beaches and places inland. Very clean house with plenty of room. Pool and outside areas were great to relax in, and so many different options to enjoy so everyone could find their own spot. Only downside is the pool didn’t have much of a shallow end so would be difficult for smaller kids to enjoy with a flotation device

Fabulous house in great location

We enjoyed our recent stay at Cottage on the Canal. The check in process was seamless and the house was exactly as shown in the pictures. We were in town for soccer and it was nice to find an umbrella and some chairs in the garage to help us with our stay. During our downtime, we enjoyed the kayaks, the firepit, sitting on the edge of the canal, and swimming in the DEEP pool. Towels were very soft and coffee in the kitchen with everyday spices were a plus. Would love to rent this house again!

A nice getaway

The house was in perfect conditions!! It was well equipped with everything we needed! The property itself is pretty big where you can enjoy the pool but also have a nice patio area where you can sit and enjoy the sunset. Big enough dock for our boat and there’s a boat ramp really close by to the house which is a big plus!!!

Canal cutie

Spacious, clean, and comfortable. The house was so nicely decorated, and the kitchen was well equipped with all that was needed. So nice to have a TV in every room. We had many hours of fun in the pool, and nice beach towels right by the glass doors out to the pool. Awesome outdoor area! The seawall and dock were perfect for docking our boat, and for fishing off of. Plenty of room for parking cars and boat trailer in the driveway. Would definitely rent again!

Family Vacation

Maureen was great to work with. We had a conflict with the dates we booked at first. She was very prompt and accommodating in helping us switch our dates around. The property was perfect for our family of 5.Very clean, tons of space, back patio/pool was clean, and perfect to relax by. The neighborhood was quiet and full of very friendly people. Very close to the island, shopping, and the beaches. We would definitely recommend this property to anyone.

House was awesome and in quiet neighborhood with adequate parking for boat trailer and car. Pool was well maintained. Only thing you could complain about was water pressure in master bathroom but that is not an owner problem but new building codes for water conservation.

Great house with great shared spaces and good sized bedrooms. Location is perfect if you’re bringing your boat. Close to the Gulf Pass, sand bars, fishing spot, and restaurants. The pool is crystal clear and a great way to end the day after being out in the salt water all day. Would stay here again 100%

Just like home

Maureen went out of her way to accommodate us at the last minute! We all went down to move my mom out of her home so it was a very stressful trip and the home was so nice to go back at the end of the day! I didn’t feel like we were a guest somewhere, it felt like going home. The kids had an amazing time swimming in the pool and gave them something to look forward to after a long day. Everything you would need is already there for you. Wish we had more time to enjoy the kayaks, bikes, etc! We will definitely go back!!
