Birthdary trip
We were celebrating my nephew's girlfriend's 21 birthday. The house was amazing. It was clean and had everything we needed. Kathy was so nice and helpful. We were less than 2 miles from the beach. The beds were comfortable, the decor was beach themed and very relaxing. I will be staying here again.

Fantastic worry-free stay!
This place was perfect for my kids and I and our husky. Everything that you could possibly need was available inside the home. Private and beautiful. The master room was perfect and had a roomy washer and dryer closet with full length mirror that I planned to buy when I got there and didn’t need to once I saw there was one! My kids loved the tree swing! I had my own personal issues while there and they were so empathetic and understanding and worked with me making it much less stressful on that end. They even had beach toys and chairs to use! We will be back next month!

Serendipity
From the moment I opened the door I knew that I had found the perfect vacation rental. The House was immaculate and stocked with everything one would need for a trip away from home. Each of the two beds were very comfortable, the water in the soer was hot, there were more than enouch twel, sheets, etc. It was evident that care was taken in the choosing charming decor and the comfort of the guest. It was a true delight sitting on the porch and drinking coffee each morning. Kathy (the host) kept in touch from the moment I booked the stay to the last day. I LOVED my stay here.

Lovely property!
We stayed as a family of 4, two adults and two kids plus our 8lb dog. Property is a detached mother in law type of property that is very well maintained and clean. Hosts were incredibly responsive and kind. The location is ideal just a couple of minutes to Manasota Beach which is great to find shark teeth. Very private and spacious outdoor area with swing. We were comfortable and had great wifi. The added laundry room and spacious garage were a huge plus! We have stayed in MANY vacation rentals and this one was one of our favorites because it was clean and comfortable. Look forward to staying again!

This little cottage is perfect for a get away. We booked this for a small girls trip and we loved it from start to finish. The cottage made us feel so safe and secure. The house smelled clean and was SO nice. The host was also very quick to respond. It is also a very close drive to the beach. We will definitely book again.

Just what I needed!
This was exactly as I had hoped for! It was in a quiet area, and private, but yet close enough to the beach to just jump in the car and go! The owners are wonderful and communicate quickly. This little hidden gem is a must when in Venice! My little four legged baby enjoyed being able to roam and play, or just sit on the back patio and relax! Oh, and you truly don’t need anything except your suitcase! The owners have everything you need waiting for you!

Just what we needed
We enjoyed the location/distance to my family who live in South Venice. The space was perfect for our family of 3. Had a garage to park inside if you wanted. The hosts were present at check in even though we got in late. They Communicated the water conditions at the beach when a rip current was in effect. Would be perfect for anyone there to visit the beach, they had all the beach necessities so you wouldn’t need to bring anything with you. Would definitely stay there again.

Great Vacation Spot!
My husband and I, along with our 3.5 month old, spent a long weekend here and it’s the perfect spot! Great location! It’s quiet but also close to everything. The beds are comfortable and the hosts thought of everything. For our baby, we set up the pack n play in the second bedroom and they even provided an inflatable infant bathtub. The house was very clean and we would 100% stay here again!

Delightful Cottage
This cottage is amazing! So clean and comfortable. We loved that it is only a few miles from a beautiful white sand beach! Perfect location tucked away on a dead end road made it wonderfully quiet and private. Having a garage was a plus and having it stocked with beach chairs, shell rake and other beach supplies was a blessing. The host was very welcoming and had great communication with us. We loved it and hope to go back in the future!

Explore and Relax
The home was excellent—just the right space for my teenage son and me as we visited family. The bedrooms and bathroom were nice, and the living space and outdoor patio area were great. The only minor issue was the neighbor, who has dogs, and they would be out barking late at night, but that was not the hosts' fault; it is just something to be aware of.
