Stunning Waterfront Views and Private Pool

—Please read description and house rules before requesting to book—Please note that the price is based upon two guests and additional guests will incur a fee of $15 per guest per night; this is to keep prices affordable for our snowbirds and to recover costs for additional wear and tear and added utilities and cleaning. If there is any chance that the number of guests may increase beyond what you have on the original reservation you need to let us know BEFORE booking. Additional guest requests will not be able to be accommodated after the request has been approved.Please also note that we are unable to offer early check in or late check out.From the moment you arrive at our home you’ll be surrounded by spectacular water views. The open floor plan makes it easy for everyone to spend time together, but having bedrooms on either side of the house also allows for privacy.Walk through the back door to the screened-in pool overlooking the water. The back of the house faces southwest and the pool is in direct sunlight. Enjoy a glass of wine while watching for manatees and dolphins in the canal and watch the flying fish. Bring your friends and family–the house sleeps eight with two queen beds, two twin beds, a pull out sofa bed– and bring your kayaks and stand up paddle boards and row out to Wheedon Island Preserve and explore the mangrove trails. You can also rent jet skis for the day. The boat launch is just over a mile from the house but you can launch kayaks and SUPs from the dock at high tide. Rent a boat, with or without a captain, and get picked up at the dock.The house is equipped with dishes and close to everything. We’ll provide you with toiletries to get you started, but please know the house is self-catered so you’ll need to purchase paper products and the like for the rest of your stay. Visit the vibrant and newly renovated Saint Pete Pier, just 7 miles away, and photograph the incredible billowing net sculpture, then dine at some of the Bay Area’s finest restaurants. Relax at the country’s top-rated beaches, including the #1 rated beach in the United States, Saint Pete Beach. Clearwater beach is also just 17 miles away. Fort DeSoto park and beach, ranked the #1 family beach, is just under a half hour away. Orlando is a 90 minute drive. If you tire of the glorious sun and sand, spend the day exploring the Dali Museum, The Chihuly Exhibit, or the Museum of Fine Arts in downtown Saint Pete, or wander through the Sunken Gardens, catch a game at Tropicana Field or catch a performance at Mahaffey Theater; all are fifteen minutes away.Please note that for your security and the security of the property there are cameras outside at the entrances to the house and at the pool controls.PS. If you are booking during November – April, the price to heat the pool is included in the rate. If you are staying May – October, when most guests typically would not need heat, there is an additional fee of $20 per day for the pool heat to be turned on. If the pool heat is turned on it will be set for 82 degrees and guests cannot adjust temperature. There are cameras on the controls and touching the pool controls is grounds for eviction due the the high cost of damage that can result. I will also receive alerts on my phone.
