Great Property!
The property was well set up with lots of extras (stocked with snacks and beverages) making it feel welcoming and relaxing. Having the boat onsite and ready for use was such a time saver and eliminated the hassle of extra logistics renting a boat stored elsewhere, which gave us more time to enjoy our vacation. I would definitely stay at this property again or another owned by this host

Was a great week !
We stayed from Mon-Sat, the house was the cleanest I have stayed at in quite a long time. Had all the toiletries, snacks, drinks, water stocked there. Was super nice place to stay and we’ve stayed in the area for over 10 years. Very satisfied.

Home away from Home
We have high criteria for where we stay on vacation. This home exceeded our expectations! The home was very clean, fully stocked with everything we needed, comfortable, and the host was very responsive to questions and instructions. Having a boat was amazing. The weather didn’t cooperate during our stay but the house provided plenty of areas of comfort during rainy days. The location is close to a lot of restaurants, stores and places to visit. Fisherman’s Village in Punta Gorda and Sunseeker Resort were a few minutes away.

2 Amazing Vacations in 1
House With A Boat was an excellent vacation experience for your family! Our host made sure we had everything we needed and then some. The house was very clean, it was exactly as presented in pictures and the amenities were exceptional.
The boat rides were an adventure getting to see dolphin, stingrays, a bald eagle and so much more. We loved visiting new places in the harbor and such beautiful views not to mention the incredible sunsets.
We will always cherish the time we spent there with our family and friends!!

Port Charlotte Get Away
Property was in great shape having just been in a hurricane. Everything had been tidied up to make it comfortable. LOVE the layout of the home, lots of charming qualities! A lot of thought went into stocking the house with anything you could imagine for use during our stay. Appreciated the check in to see if there was anything we needed.

Clean, newer everything, and great communication
Great host! Nice house. Ok neighborhood and location. Pool was awesome. Boat was ok, kind of weathered but it is FL. Impressed with the host and accommodations. They had everything we could have ever needed. Only thing that would have made it better is if it was on a beach!

Weekend Getaway
We hadn't really had a vacation in quite sometime, we are glad we found the House with a Boat, we had a great weekend. Max was helpful answering questions and ensuring we knew how everything worked.
The house was well stocked and had everything you could possibly want. This is a very comfortable house with many ammenities, if you forgot something, they probably have it at the house. We have stayed in several houses offered through VRBO and found this one to be the best so far.
We plan to book it again before the summer is over.

Well stocked home with pretty view
House was in great shape. It definitely has been renovated. All new furniture, appliances & fixtures. Very well stocked with drinks (wine, beer, soft drinks, coffee & water) & snacks. Bathroom essentials all supplied. House had plenty of room & it was definitely a “smart home”. Quiet & nice neighborhood.
Pool was large as well as the patio/lanai area & had plenty of seating. View from dock & from pool area was great. Boat & kayaks were a plus. Enjoyed taking cruises across to Fisherman’s Village, into the bay & swimming off of the small islands in the bay.
Inside the house needs a second TV so adults & children can watch different things. A TV on the lanai/patio would be a great suggestion. Garage was full of “older furniture” stacked up. Would have been nice to be able to put cars in garage. We had 4 adults & 2 kids, but there were only 2 beach chairs & no umbrellas.
Just a note, distance to ocean beaches was 45 minutes or more, but Port Charlotte Beach Park was just under 1.5 miles from house. Small beach area that had a basketball court, volleyball court, outdoor pool & playground.
Great house for families or multiple couples.
