Love this place
This was our second time at Anchor House and it really is a fantastic place. Being right on the water makes it easy to take the boat out or just fish right off the dock. Super clean and has everything you need for a relaxing getaway.

Peaceful, quite and relaxing
This home is just as described! We loved fishing right off the dock in the back yard. It was the perfect place for evening relaxing. We had our dinners on the back screened in porch overlooking the canal. We even had a hummingbird visit us. The beds were so comfortable, it was hard to get out of it to do some early morning fishing. Would definitely come back again!

Fishing trip
Our second time staying at the Anchor house. We love it!! We bring two boats. The boat slips are nice. And the fish cleaning station is perfect. The beds sleep good and the screened in back porch is where we hang out. Plenty of room for two trucks and boat trailers. Its the best place fir fishing and relaxing.

Location was perfect, the house was perfect for 6 adults and kids. Access to the water was my favorite about the house. We used the location and house for the easy access to the water for fishing. We will be back on a future date!

Favorite Rental
This place is close to home. We appreciate having his place to be able to rent. Our home has limited space for family and the extra bedrooms here help a lot. Our children and grandchildren stayed here and loved the new addition of the fire pit. We had 30 people between our family and my sister’s and also had other rentals in the area. My family’s favorite place is Anchor’s Away. Always our number one choice. Thank you.

Nice stay
It was a good place to stay. We needed somewhere near the water for other friends staying close. If you don’t have a boat, there really isn’t much to do. It was clean, but the coffee was old and we had to run out to a gas station. The owners communicate very well and promptly.

This house is in one of the best locations right off the canal with two boat stalls and electricity to charge your boats. We had four family members and two boats and caught around 475 brim and shell crackers in three days..

Property was excellent. Nice fish cleaning station, we caught 229! Great boat dock, both our boats were under shelter. Plenty of space for two trucks and two boat trailers. Screened in porch for sitting and watching the water without bugs bothering us. Saw two otters on the dock! Neighbors were nice. Would most definitely recommend this place and would stay here again.

Relaxation!!
Second time staying here and no disappointment! Relaxation was the plan... involving fishing, a couple boat rides to Renegades on the River and just hanging out. Perfect location for that quiet river vibe. At the end of the street is a boat launch, covered boat dock (although the water levels were high after Ian, it was still usable) and Renegades is less than a 5 minute boat ride. The property was clean and comfortable and the back porch overlooking the canal was relaxing!!

The property was nice, could leave instructions for how to use the TV since there is no cable or satalite, using apps with no instructions is difficult. The pictures listed are a little misleading, as it looks like it is on deeper water and not at end of canal. Overall we had a nice family trip and would recommend to others
