A hidden gem with 60-foot private lanai overlooking more than 900 feet of riverfront beauty! This completely unique property in the area is full of water views, mature bamboo, fern, palm, oak and banana trees. Bring your kayaks, canoes, and paddle boards for a true wild Florida experience on the Braden River! Take walks on the private island watching boats glide by or sit on the lanai listening to bamboo sway in the wind. It is truly tree house living!!

Peaceful Visit
My husband and I wanted a place that would provide some calm in a busy time of our lives. This place was impeccably clean with so many extras. Kate was very accommodating, especially when our dates initially was scheduled during Hurricane Ian and then revised to Hurricane/Tropical Storm Nicole. We are thankful all went well. Would definitely rent again if needed. Thank you Kate

5 stars all the way
Pictures do not do it justice. Property feels like a slice of Hawaii in Florida. Previous reviews I read said you feel like you ve been transported to a hidden tropical island, they were on point. Home was beautiful, immaculately clean, and the home host has a gift of hospitality. Tastefully decorated and thoughtfully stocked with everything you need. Perfect place to relax and unwind but still just minutes from any and everything you may need or want to do. Loved loved loved!

Fantastic place to relax...
We really enjoyed our stay here and plan on returning. As soon as you pull onto the property you are instantly in a tropical paradise. Winding pathways filled with mature bamboo, bromeliads galore and numerous other tropical plantings. It is just gorgeous! The house, it seems, is planned to take in all the outdoor beauty because every room has a different beautiful view of the grounds. The home is furnished beautifully, the bed's are comfortable and the place was spotless and super clean. The owner's have really thought of everything to make our stay a memorable one including a personalized welcome basket filled with yummy snacks. We are looking forward to a return visit. I highly recommend this property!

Awesome stay!
Beautiful home. Very comfortable beds !! Plenty of space. We had 5 in our party and did not feel over crowded. Kate was awesome at communicating and goes out of her way to make you feel at home. The view from the house was so relaxing and the river is right out side the Lanai. Definitely worth booking 👌

Hidden gem near Sarasota! Quiet, spacious, clean & TONS of ammenities
Words cannot give this property justice! It's basically a 2 bed/1 bath apartment in a tropical oasis. It was so peaceful relaxing on the screened in porch swing, wandering on the private grounds & watching the river go by. The place has everything you will need to make you comfortable and the owner went out of her way to make us feel welcome. There were snacks upon our arrival, a personal sign greeting us, and even fresh flowers! We loved having a washer & dryer and full kitchen as well as TONS OF SPACE. We only had 3 in our party, but we would love to come back with our 2 boys as the space can easily accommodate families. One of the best VRBO experiences we have ever had! Thank you Kate & family!
