Unfortunately, we didn't have much time, but this wonderful, spacious house by a lake, in the middle of a beautiful community, is a real gem; a place to switch off and just be happy. From the very first minute, you can feel that the owners have furnished it with great taste and love and probably spend a lot of time here themselves. We will try to rent this paradise again as soon as possible, this time for a longer vacation so that we also have time to explore the nearby beaches of Sanibel Island and Fort Myers Beach.The property management also deserves special praise; check-in and check-out were extremely friendly and hassle-free.
