Vacation Rental Description

Vacation Rental Description:

     Our custom built spacious home over looks a beautiful deep 
water canal and is located in the Paradise Village Community at 
Shell Point, Florida. It is only 30 miles south of Tallahassee, Fl. 
The house sits on an angle on the property to allow for an excellent 
view of the boats coming and going. Most of the boat traffic is 
fishermen and some are joy riders just looking. There is always a 
friendly wave. The view of the canal can be enjoyed from the Florida 
room with the comforts of indoor air conditioning, the screened in 
back patio or from the swing hanging from the big oak tree in the 
back yard. Channel markers start at the end of the canal and guide 
boats safely into the beautiful Gulf of Mexico just around the bend.
     The Community is gated and a code will be provided. Within 
walking distance of the house is the community pool which overlooks 
another canal, tennis courts, a basketball goal and the public 
beach. A large private dock is right outside the backdoor of the 
house and has a stainless steel fish cleaning station with running 
water. The boat ramp is located nearby. If you are an avid 
fishmen you will need ice...this home rents with a very large 
capacity ice machine. You will not be buying ice...just bring plenty 
of ice chests. The carport is shaded and we would be happy to share 
the abundants of fruit that we harvest each year from our Ruby Red 
grapefruit, lime, fig, & pomegranate trees.
