BEWARE!! Dirty Fixer Upper.
By vundermonkey, 04/21/09
The location is the only thing nice about this place. Camping on the grounds would have been nicer than staying in the accomodations. My family and I drove up from Sarasota to enjoy 2 days in the outdoors, since we kayak and I windsurf. Once we arrived, we got through the gate, and it was down hill from there. The owner has junk strewn around the ...

Great time clean peacfull accomadations
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 03/01/09
We loved the homes, cute island, Exactly as advertised,. The owner was great guide to the area and helped us when out boat had a problem. We are going return every year and spend a week next time. My kids caught 12 fish from the kayaks that were included in our stay. We loved sitting by the bonfire in the evening. haveing the owner on site was such a plus to us he told us were to catch fish. Were to get the best meals cheep.

Natural Paradise is an understatement!!!
By Jinny, 02/23/09
Who would have guessed in such a remote part of Florida there would be such a natural jewel of paradise!!! City folk who claim they want to get away, and get back to nature need to understand this "IS" natural, it is as natural as nature can be. In all its glorious beauty, the sunrises in the morning to the awsome sunsets at night. To see ...

Overpriced Dump
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 07/13/08
Both the name and website of this place are complete misrepresentations of what this place is. The location is beautiful, but there are many eyesores, including a rusted out trailer--the bottom is falling out of it--that take away from your island view. The living space was dirty including dead bugs and food crumbs in the bedrooms. They ...

A Rip Off/Lies
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 06/27/08
What a dirty and trashed up place. The other reviewer was right. The owner is the caretaker and he lives right next door-ten steps from your "house" which is a two story building with cramped bedrooms. His pool is on a deck at the bottom of the steps to his house. There are over a dozen rusted out boats that don't work scattered on ...

I cannot recommend this place - at all
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 01/10/08
We have stayed on this "island". First of all the island is not as secluded as advertised, the owner lives right next to the vacation home, including all his clutter (an RV, van, container) that is an eyesore. The homes the owner is speaking about on the website are two appartments. The lower unit is rather shack-like with two bedrooms ...

Amazing time on a private island
By ifonlymel63, 09/19/05
We kayaked 3 days saw manatee, dolphin and eagals. It was the only private island experiance we could find on the west coast of Florida.. Clean, private, nice place to stay. Very afordable, full two bedroom home for not much more than a hotel
