We stayed here for a baseball tournament. The property owners have done a great job renovating the house after hurricane Ian but the surrounding area is still recovering. If you need to be the Fort Myers area this is a great place to stay as it is a very convenient location.
This is a wonderful house in a quiet neighborhood. Everything in the house works fine. We had a little trouble logging onto the Wifi, and the VRBO communication wasn't the greatest, but other than that, we loved the place.
We stayed for 2 nights this last weekend and enjoyed the property. Spacious 3 bedrooms with 2 bathrooms, nice patio, and was clean. Loved the option of being able to fish off the dock, use the crab traps, and kayaks!
This was a wonderful VRBO experience! The property manager answered several questions that we had very quickly. The house was clean, comfortable in the kitchen was well-stocked to cook a few nice meals. We would definitely recommend this place for a comfortable and relaxing stay in North Fort Myers.
Lovely home, sadly my husband ended up in the hospital but he is recovering now. I wanted to go kayaking but time didn’t allow. The kitchen was well stocked with a variety of wonderful seasonings & tools to use. We did get to grill our one night and the hot tub was a nice bonus.
