The Summertime Retreat is a BOATERS DELIGHT! Just MINUTES to open water!
Summertime Retreat is in the highly sought after Southwest Cape Coral area within walking distance to nearby Cape Harbor Marina where you can enjoy great restaurants, shopping, entertainment and boat rentals! Cape Harbor has live music on Tuesday nights for added fun.

The 3rd guest bedroom has 2 twins that can be put together to make a king and an AMAZING view of the canal.
There will be 3 TV'S in the home; one in the master/primary bedroom, one in the great room and one in the lounge/living room.
In addition to the amazing lanai area, just steps away, the dock boasts 4 Adirondack chairs for relaxing, tanning or just enjoying time while you watch for fish jumping or possibly spotting a manatee! You can fish right from the dock (there will be 2 Fishing poles supplied for guest use).
Launch Kayaks from the convenient step ladder down to the water.
For a day of bike riding fun, there are also 3 single seated bikes with helmets on the property free to use for guests since the home is so close to bike paths for easy riding.
For a family fun day at the beach there are also beach chairs, a beach umbrella, a beach cart and there is even a beach cooler in the garage so you need to BRING NOTHING!.
Everything you need to spend the day at the beach and have a great holiday vacation, it's all right here at the Summertime Retreat!!! We want you to Enjoy your stay..!!!!
Camelot Park is just a short walk down the street, where you can play tennis or pickle ball, plan a picnic, walk the dog and take the kids to the playground for a day of fun!
The local grocery store is just a bike ride away for grabbing any needed groceries.
You can't beat this neighborhood and it's convenience to shopping, restaurants and some of the best Gulf access canals in the Cape. Rent a boat and enjoy the waters!
(The dock is for use to tie up a rental boat but for safety reasons the boat lift is for owner use only)

Perfect home
We enjoyed our stay in this beautiful home. The house was meticulously clean, well appointed, updated, nicely decorated, and overall made us feel like this would have made a great second home. The location was great as it was near restaurants, parks, and two marinas. Our pups loved it too.

Excellent stay with excellent service
We were so pleased to be greeted by the property manager Cheryl who took the time to give us a detailed orientation to this lovely home. Cheryl was true to her word by responding to our requests in very short order. It was a delight to stay at this home, enjoy the lovely pool and provided amenities. We took great comfort in knowing that Cheryl was available to assist us with our every request. We are planning to returning next year.

Perfection!
Everything was perfect. From the time we walked through the front door, to the time we left. We have never stayed in a more thoughtfully appointed vacation home. It was impeccably clean as well. We spent a lot of time out in the pool. It was so nice to have a covered lanai to keep the bugs away. We rented a boat for the week and it was so fun to boat to different beaches and restaurants! Cheryl was an amazing host. So thoughtful and easy to communicate with. When she tells you to pack light, trust her. They have everything there! We would love to stay at this property again. It was truly paradise and we never wanted to leave! Thank you for sharing this beautiful property with us!

Absolutely Awesome
We had such a relaxing and wonderful stay. We wanted a place we could stay and not have to go out into pubic much because of the pandemic. With instacart and ubereats coupled with this house you can have an amazing holiday!!! They thought of everything, even down to a French press for morning coffee...you know if you don't like the Keurig or the regular brew option they have available too!! The beds were so comfortable. And there are a crazy amount of options for your pillows too. Its like they give you every option in the world so you can have a pleasant stay. There are tons of things for the beach and the pool (floats, coolers, umbrellas, chairs). Our dogs even had a great time and give it 2 paws up!! Definitely going to plan to stay again and you should plan to go too!!

Great vacation house!
We stayed at St. Somewhere for the last week of May 2021. The price was reasonable and the house had many amenities. Cheryl maintained good communication throughout our stay. The house was big and open. Lots of ceiling fans. A/C was cool and refreshing. The screened pool was fabulous. Nice big beach towels were there for our use. We ate breakfast out by the pool daily. I liked the large kitchen to make meals. The view of the canal behind the house was nice to look at too. Washer/dryer in the garage worked good. Plenty of beach necessities in the garage available to borrow for beach days. Security system, front door keypad lock system and garage door opener made me feel safe. Location is in a quiet canal neighborhood and not far from stores and beaches. I would recommend this rental to anyone looking for a quiet place to come back to after busy vacation days at the Gulf.

Cheryl is AMAZING & so is her “home away from home.” Great location, with lots to do near by. My boyfriend & I had an awesome time. We can’t wait to return sometime in the future. Cheryl’s home has everything and anything you need & she’s only a text/phone call away. I recommend this “home away from home” to everyone. You won’t be upset with your stay! (:
