The house was clean and we had everything we needed to prepare our own meals when we wanted to stay in and eat. What we love most was the fact that it’s a very quiet neighborhood! The pool and the hot tub were awesome! We use those a lot. The water was warm and clean! The bed was very comfortable! We slept very well. Pete was excellent to communicate with and was responsive. We saw bald eagles on a couple of different occasions, and a couple of Cooper’s! This is a house that we would definitely come back to!

This is a very nice straight forward vacation home that meets the needs for multiple bedrooms, comfortable seating in the living room, very nice hot tub with plenty of room and a beautiful pool with a nice deeper end. The nature preserve just across from the back of the home allows for glimpses of various Florida birds and insects. We were totally pleased with this location including the attentiveness of the maintenance man and grass trimming services. Our stay was not negatively affected by any of these people. We would definitely consider coming back to this location. Great home in a good location within Cape Coral.

The location was perfect — close to shops, restaurants, and local attractions, yet still very peaceful and quiet. Communication with the host was smooth, professional, and friendly. They responded quickly to any questions we had and even provided local recommendations.

Great home in Cape Coral
We stayed for two weeks and wish we could’ve stayed longer. The home was clean, comfortable, and in a nice location. The large family room easily accommodated all of us and the beds were comfortable. The highlight of the home is the lanai and pool deck. It offers plenty of space to relax, the pool was large, the water was a perfect temp, and there’s also a hot tub, which we enjoyed as well. Our host, Pete, was VERY responsive anytime I had to reach out about something. The only downside is the home lacks a few comfort things like bedside lamps, dressers in two of the three bedrooms, and cushions for the pool loungers (we solved that with a trip to Target). The people staying in those two bedrooms had to rely solely on overhead lighting at night and lived out of their suitcase on the floor of their closet. This is the only reason why I rated four stars vs. five stars. Having said that, I would stay here again without hesitation and highly recommend this property.

Pool & Hot Tub Made the Trip!
Traveling with preteens, this home was perfect. They practically lived in the pool, while the adults enjoyed the hot tub! The location is convenient to everything, and the area was great for our daily walks.The only request I would make is a piece of furniture in bedrooms 2 & 3 to unload our luggage.We would definitely stay here again if visiting Cape Coral.

It is what we were looking for to be away from all the hustle and bustle of the Spring break, But still close enough so we could go and visit that kind of stuff, but then get back to where we were away from it.

We enjoyed our stay. One of the best properties of our Vrbo stays. The pool and hot tub were crystal clear. The pool was heated so I got to spend some time in the pool and then jump in the hot tub. The property has a walking trail behind the backyard. The neighbors we nice and we got to meet some pet lovers while walking our four legged family member. The kitchen had all of the appliances. The mattresses were very comfortable and the living/family room was spacious and comfortable. The outdoor screened patio area was spacious and inviting. I would recommend this property for families and will be looking to book this property in the future.
