Girls trip!
It was amazing and perfect for our girls trip! The sunrise over the water was so beautiful, and taking the kayaks out was so much fun!! Was plenty of room for all of us and the house was cute. Only thing I would suggest is maybe a fan on the patio and bit more lighting, it’s get a bit dark. Also loved that it was close to restaurants and even a real good ice cream place! Thank you for letting us stay!

Sun, Fresh Air, Comfort and Relaxation
This property was perfect for us. Water views, sunsets, comfortable furniture and the king bed had a good mattress. We have been to Hudson many times (have family who live nearby) and this house was one of the nicest. We love to sit in a screen porch and read and relax and this one was perfect. From one side we could see the gulf and sunset. from the other we could see Cow's Creek. Also had good birdwatching. Even saw an eagle.

Sunrise...sunset
So impressed with this rental....very clean, beautifully decorated and well equipped. A perfect location to watch the sun come up in the morning and the sun go down over the Gulf at night. Our host Rick was amazing. The picture on goggle earth was taken in 2019 and does not show what the owner has done to the property since that time. Would definitely recommend this rental.

Vacation getaway
The location is near to trails and close to restaurants. Kayak in the channel & you encounter turtles, pelicans, dolphin and an occasional manatee. Amazing!!! House is nicely appointed, clean, comfortable. Rick is responsive and definitely a premier host. Thanx so much for a relaxing, enjoyable stay. Definitely on our return list. :-)

Nice home, subject to flooding
We were impressed with the home, its cleanliness and furnishings. Very comfortable for 4 adults. Local restaurants were average; the Hudson Brewery had an amazing selection of local craft beers. However, due to an extended rainstorm and high tide, the entire VRBO property was flooded about 12” on our last morning. This is a very low-lying area. It was unsettling watching the water rise up the front steps at 5 am, but with an inch to go, outgoing tide, and rain ending, the waters began to recede. I wish the owner had called us rather than emailed us the night before, informing us of the potential for flooding in the area. We did not get the email until much later, after the event.

This was my first VRBO stay and this experience has set the bar very high. Property Manager was extremely responsive. The property was amazing. So clean and all the amenities you need to make you feel like you are home away from home. Beds are comfortable and plenty of blankets. Wildlife was great. All kinds of birds. We say Manatees daily and even experienced a couple dolphins go in and out of the canal. Can't say enough about this beautiful oasis.

Beautiful retreat
Everything was exactly as expected & then some. This is a beautiful home, well thought out. There wasn't anything we wished we had. The sunrises were absolutely beautiful. There was so much life all around us, dolphins, manatee, pelicans & heron along with some cute playful squirrels.. Not to mention good fishing. We were there 30 minutes & my son caught a 4 foot gar! We also caught needle fish, flounder & lizard fish. We will definitely be back.

Check in process was seamless and easy, we really liked how clean and organized the property was. Everything was as advertised and we will be back next year. No more new port richey hotels for us, we are spoiled now by this place. Kayaks and life jackets were a nice touch also. You can tell the owner takes great pride in the property, great stay.
