Check in was easy. Email said to just walk into the unit. Spacious and clean unit. Canoeing and fishing was fun. Really enjoyed the outdoor screened deck. We'll be back.

The staff was very helpful and we had a great stay!
I will definitely come back again.
A very clean and comfortable stay in the 2-bedroom cabin! While it is a bit outdated and "lived in", our cabin was spotless and very clean (which is more important in my opinion!). My family of 4 had plenty of room to move around, and the Master bedroom was extremely spacious. Check-in was very easy and our room was ready ahead of time. Parking right under our room was great. Would definitely stay here again!
Particularly great for boaters and fishermen. AC worked well - not handicap accessible as you have to climb stairs. Very peaceful.

The cabin was spacious with full kitchen and a screened in deck. The cabin was elevated the car park was directly under the cabin. The room was clean and the bed comfortable. Both main rooms had effective A/C. The staff was also helpful and connected us to local 2 hr boat tour that was really special. It was a unique experience.

Cabin was clean and in good order. But the best part was the view from the back deck. How nice to look out over the water in the morning and watch the sun rise plus have so many different birds fly by. Complimentary canoes and bicycles also were such a nice addition. If you like quiet you'll love this place. Plus the lady in the office gave us such good advice as to what boat tours to take and we were especially satifsfied with that. We would definately stay here again.

A lovely, quiet, peacefully uncrowded town.
The other occupants were quiet and respectful. The staff is wonderful !
The villa was very accommodating with everything we needed (except a measuring cup) 🙃. We enjoyed our stay SO much and wished we could have stayed longer.

Relaxing stay on the river
Comfortable one-night stay while visiting the Everglades. Really loved the screened-in porch overlooking the river, particularly in the evening and when having my morning coffee. Free use of canoes was a plus. The location is convenient for boat tours of the Everglades or for those who enjoy fishing (private dock with fish-cleaning area). Cooking facilities are included and there are several restaurant options are nearby.

Great view on the water - watched dophins swimming by and many birds. Very nice cabin. Had all we needed for our first visit to the area. comfortable beds. Kitchen well stocked. Convenient to all local attractions. Great staff - very friendly and helpful.
Not a complaint, just a comment...
This place is nowhere near "wilderness", so don't think you'll be staying out in the middle of nowhere. It's in the middle of town, a few hundred yards from the traffic circle.
That said, It's quiet and we very much enjoyed our stay there. If we find ourselves in the area again, we'll stay here.
