About this property

"Captain's Key Waterside Retreat" Boat Dock! Awesome Pool!

  • Professionally managed by Casago First Coast. Fish off your own dock at sunrise, then spend the afternoon in the pool just steps away, all from a screened lanai that runs the length of the house. This is waterfront living the way it's supposed to feel — slow mornings, dolphins passing by, and a canal wide enough to watch real boats go by.

    THE SPACE

    This is a single-level ranch-style home on a canal lot in the Tidelands on the Intracoastal community, with the waterway as the real centrepiece of the property. A screened lanai runs the full length of the back of the house, furnished with wicker seating and ceiling fans, opening onto a paved pool deck with outdoor dining and a private plunge pool finished with a small tiled waterfall feature. Past the pool, a fixed wooden dock with a gazebo canopy, bench seating, and a ladder into the water lets you fish, launch a kayak or paddleboard, or just sit and watch the boats go by on a canal wide enough that a neighbour across the way docks a genuine yacht.

    Inside, there are two separate living rooms — one anchored by a fireplace — both furnished with new sofas and both facing the water. The dining room and a breakfast nook share the same panoramic canal view, and the kitchen has new stainless appliances and white cabinetry. The whole layout is built around bringing the water view into nearly every room rather than tucking it behind a single window.

    BEDROOMS AND SLEEPING ARRANGEMENTS

    • Bedroom 1 (Master) — 1 King bed
    • Bedroom 2 (Guest) — 1 Queen bed
    • Bedroom 3 (Guest) — 1 Double bed + 1 Twin bed
    • Living room — 1 Sofa bed

    The master suite has direct pool-deck access, a remote-control fireplace, and an en-suite with a jetted tub, a separate glass-enclosed tiled shower, a water closet, and a double vanity. The guest rooms carry a soft sage-and-white coastal palette, and the third bedroom has its own separate entrance — handy for a group that wants a bit of independence.

    BATHROOMS

    • Bathroom 1 (Master) — Full bath, jetted tub + separate enclosed shower
    • Bathroom 2 (Guest) — Full bath, tub + shower

    THE LANAI, POOL AND DOCK

    The screened lanai is genuinely oversized for a home this size — long enough for a full seating area and a dining table, with ceiling fans keeping it comfortable through the day. Just off it, the private plunge pool is compact but entirely your own, with a small waterfall feature and a full paved deck around it for lounging. Beyond the pool, the fixed dock is the real draw: a gazebo canopy for shade, bench seating, and a ladder straight into the canal for a swim, a fishing line, or a paddleboard launch.

    THE CANAL

    This is a wide, navigable canal connected to the Intracoastal Waterway — guests have fished right off the dock, spotted dolphins and manatees passing by, and even chartered a boat for a day trip up and down the waterway. The beach is a short walk or a two-minute drive away.

My dream home

I really enjoyed my stay in Palm Coast. I spent most of my time sitting outdoors enjoying the views. Although the pool was quite small, it served its purpose. The kitchen had everything we needed to prepare our meals and we were located a short drive to a supermarket. The house was clean and tastefully decorated. A truly beautiful home that I wish was mine.

Great Property, Better than Advertised

First off, this is an excellent property in a great location for a vacation. The owner obviously takes great pride in the property, it is immaculate, well maintained, and comfortable. It is stocked with everything you need. We cooked excellent meals, there were some spices in the kitchen and a nice grill to cook on. The garage has fishing gear and everything you need to go to the beach. Our expectations were exceeded. We did not bring our boat but if you are considering it, the dock is outstanding. We did catch a few fish there as well.

Exceptional property, great location, tranquil location, incredible host

Beautiful property, very spacious and immaculate. Property is located on a quiet corner on the canal. Host was very responsive, very quickly and extremely accommodating and friendly. 2 bedrooms have walk outs to the covered patio with heated pool and plenty of seating. Master suite is very generous with a large bathroom and jacuzzi tub. They spared no expense with Lazy Boy comfortable living room furniture, and additional furniture near front entrance with I believe a pull out sofa, we didn’t use. The view overlooking the water was very tranquil, and the windows were so clean you felt like it was open to the outside. One of the cleanest VRBOs we’ve stayed in. Extras touches they have that made a difference: lit gazebo by the dock with two light settings, waterfall on the pool, TVs in all the bedrooms, life jackets if you have children, shampoo/conditioner/gel in the showers, a fully stocked kitchen, and lastly was very tastefully decorated. This house is a great stay whether family or couples. We would definitely rent again.

The house was perfect for our family. We had a small hiccup when we got there, but April the property manager got on it right away and took very good care of us. My family enjoyed fishing off the dock and playing card games outside on the patio while others swam. The pictures are exactly what it looks like. The neighborhood is very friendly and easy to get to. We will definitely be renting from them again.

The house was amazing and so glad it was, because we had some torrential rain while we were there. You could hear the waves from the Atlanta Ocean. The pool was perfect for the sunny warms days to cool off. The neighborhood was quiet and we seen dolphins, eagles, and had a pelican diving right in front of the dock. Restaurants close by, but we preferred to cook most of our meals at the house since it had a BBQ. The three beaches we went to all had different aspects.Varn Park beach was beautiful and not busy.Washington Oaks Garden park beach has the Coquina rock, a must see at low tide. Jungle hut beach was great for collecting shell.All in all we would definitely come back
