About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Waterfront Getaway, a Boating Paradise

Visualize it this way, you can drop your boat in across the street at the public boat ramp, and store your trailer behind the property and dock your boat steps from our place. Just grab your cooler and sunscreen and head out for a day of fishing or to the sandbar.

Guests have use of the entire house. It’s super convenient to drop in and go!

Waterfront Getaway is a unique Florida guest space and we welcome you and your family. This is a great place to enjoy the west coast of FL.

If you are a sun worshiper, avid fisher person or a paddle board guru, this is the space for you.

Waterfront Getaway is comfortable, cozy and is ready for you and your family to enjoy all Englewood, FL has to offer.

Waterfront Getaway offers trailer/boat parking for up to 25 ft. Overnight docking allowed.

A six minute drive to Englewood Beach, known for pristine waters, pretty shells and a lively night life. The cooler & beach towels are provided, just don't forget the sunscreen.

There are three TV's on the property with an outdoor grill for your use.

Waterfront Getaway assures you that we will continue to offer the same hospitality and accommodations so many guests have written about with renewed mindfulness of mutual safety and well-being.

How about Tarpon? Well maybe not right off the dock but there are lots of snook, redfish and snapper that may find your hook.
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen and a patio, and there's space to spread out with 2 bedrooms and a dining area. Guests can enjoy a Smart TV and stay connected with free WiFi. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a fenced private yard, and a coffee maker. Housekeeping is available on request.

Great house , everything is new and very well stocked. Nice fenced in yard for the dogs in the front and patio in the back for the humans. On the canal, next door to the Freedom boat club so very convenient for boaters. Tiki bar on the bay only a 5 minute walk. Many good restaurants close by. Heather was very helpful and nice to work with.

Birthday getaway

We got the place for my husband’s birthday, he wanted a quiet boat weekend. We navigated from Tampa (on our boat) to the property. It was such a great place. Super comfortable, spacious, beautifully decorated and clean.If you are bringing your boat, it does have space for you to dock your vessel during your stay, which is a big plus for us, and from the property there are plenty of places to go and enjoy your fay on the boat!Heather was super attentive and was quick to respond to any questions we had. We had an amazing quiet time. We will definitely be back

Perfect Getaway

We really needed a weekend away and this place checks all the boxes! Heather was so easy to communicate with, and very friendly. The second we walked in it smelled so clean and fresh. Everything was amazing and provided. We were able to dock our boat right out back and the convenience of the boat ramp right across the street was so easy. Our dog loved it too! We will definitely book this place again in the future!

Just what we needed…

We just needed a couple of days away from our normal hustle bustle… Preferably with someplace that we could get away to fish. Heather‘s property was the perfect fit for us. Everything was exactly as she had described, and we were spoiled with the ease with which we could put our boat in, leave it in, with the dock directly across the street. Heather is a super sweet hostess, having grown up in that area, she knew everything a true local would know, and was willing to give us all of that Intel! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay, and next time we find ourselves down in Ebglewood, we will definitely look her up again!
