Vacation Rental Description

You can really relax at this 2005 built stilt home with 90 feet of 
direct-access gulf frontage.  The property front is situated on a  
quiet residential cul-de-sac with only five other homes.  The back 
has a 90 foot seawall overlooking a 90 foot wide canal known as "cow 
creek".  About 100 yards to the west of this property is the open 
gulf, which you can view from the upper screened porch, great room 
and master bedroom.  The kitchen, second bedroom, deck, and patio 
all have water views as well.

There is a very private feel to this area and most of the view from 
the back is lush natural landscape, so you won't be looking directly 
across to the neighbors as you would with many other rental 
properties. However, if you feel like getting out, there is plenty 
of dining, shopping, golfing, and night life to enjoy within a mile 
or so of the house.

The home is fully furnished with an adjustable, massaging full size 
bed in the Master, two twin beds in the second bedroom, and a full 
size castro convertable sofa in the great room. The tuck-under 
garage has room for your car and your gear.  

Sit on the fabulous back patio with built-in fireplace and you will 
have a chance to view many varieties of fish and birds:  Manatee, 
Dolphin, Sheepshead, Mullet, Gar, Pelicans, Ducks, Heron, Osprey, 
Eagle, Woodpecker, Blue Jay, and many more I don't know the names 
of.  This is a fisherman's paradise.  The water in this warm, spring-
fed canal is remarkably clear and lots fish can be seen at all times 
from the patio.  We have a 10 x 16 foot dock for your your boating 
and swimming pleasure.  A small dinghy with oars is available for 
you to use, or you can bring your own boat or kayak.  If you want to 
rent a bigger boat just go to the port of Hudson marina less than 
one mile away.  

Pets will be accepted on a case by case basis - feel free to ask.  
Smoking will be allowed only outdoors and covered porch areas.  I've 
set-up the porch to be as comfortable as any other room in the house 
and you can even see the cable TV from there.
