About the host: Sue and I have always believed in working hard and playing hard. We enjoy boating and fishing and live on the water in the greater suburbs of Michigan I work in the Automation Industry and Sue is in the Dental profession. We often retreat to our Private Oasis to recharge and relax when ever possible and excitingly look forward to our time. We truly hope that you enjoy or little piece of paradise as much as we do and look forward to hosting you and your family.
Why this property? We often looked at homes after cruising the Caribbean and returning to Florida. We looked at over 60 homes over the past few years prior to purchasing the "Private Oasis" we were WOWED and totally amazed at the setting and outdoor backyard area of this home. It was truly beyond belief and all we wanted and more in regards to our dream waterfront home, also the small town of Punta Gorda was so, friendly, charming, fun and quaint we fell in love with it. We had a flight out the next morning and we purchased and signed the paperwork and bought the home before leaving. We have never had a moment of regret. This is truly a "one of a kind property, very special and great for entertaining!!!
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the preferred payment method.
Check or Paypal or Zelle
Why is there a fee for extra guests beyond 4 people.
We have found the cost of linens, utilities, towels, wear and tear, cleaning and maintenance to warrant additional costs. Also not fair to charge per say only 2 people more $.
Do you have reviews?
Yes, we have many excellent reviews form past years form our formal listing site. We would be happy to provide these review and references upon request.
We left our formal listing site due to increasing and escalating Hosts and guest fees. We are new on Florida Rentals and looking forward to our mutual success.

David and Tina R.Vacation paradise
We had the best time there. Spent most of our time fishing off the dock, swimming in the pool and cooking on the grill! It is truly beautiful! The house is well kept and very clean. If you have any questions or need help with anything Brian the owner is on point! Responds very quickly and is super nice! A lot of restaurants and stores to shop nearby. A great place to stay! If we go back to Punta Gorda we will definitely be staying there again!

Kellie K.Perfect Family Vacation spot
We had an amazing family vacation here. The house was clean and comfortable. Just the right size for all of us. The backyard pool is amazing. The kids were in it several times a day. We used the kayaks and saw dolphins in the canal behind the house. The fishing from the dock was great too. There were plenty of beach towels and the kitchen is well equipped. We took advantage of the beach chairs and boogie boards when we went to the beach. It was just a wonderful place to stay and I hope to be back again. Thanks for sharing your home with us and providing us with an amazing vacation!

Our family had a chance for a last minute vacation. We were lucky enough to find this house. It was everything we wanted. The backyard is amazing! The owners were extremely quick to respond to all my questions and provided great suggestions for our trip. We appreciate all their help. It was absolutely perfect. We can’t wait to come back.

Darryl J L.Spoiled for life
Looking ahead toward a possible Christmas escape with my family, I booked this house months in advance, despite knowing if border restrictions would still apply. As luck would have it, last-minute travel restrictions were changed and this trip of a lifetime came true.SHORT ANSWER: Amazing host(s) and amazing oasis.Brian was quick to reply to any/all inquiries and never once gave me a reason to doubt his sincerity and honesty. The house was as described and the backyard oasis has now officially spoiled me forever. As a person who is currently looking to acquire his own similar paradise space down south, my experience In Punta Gorda exceeds my budget.Thanks to the easing of border restrictions (Canadian(s) here), I was able to head south earlier than expected. Even on short notice, Brian accommodated my request to arrive early and was more than reasonable with rates. The original booking for the home was from December 13th, 2021 through January 13th, 2022, and I was able to arrive early (since it was available) on December 8th, 2021. We left on the date planned as another guest was confirmed but would have loved to stay longer. As such, the wife and I relocated to Daytona Beach to extend our stay in Florida.OUR STAYAt one point during our stay, we reached 9 guests and the house was more than capable of handling our crowd. My wife and I are motorcycle riders and our hosts were awesome with allowing us to park our enclosed trailer in the driveway, thereby eliminating one headache of finding a site to park the wagon. The narrow but long driveway accommodated our vehicles and we had to shuffle once in a while, but trust me, not an issue.THE HOUSEThe house is clean, bright, and open. While everything wasn't perfect as this is an older home, we are not hard to please and the minor things that some would notice, we did not nor did we get bothered by it/them. Nothing wrong, just squeaks and creaks, etc. Four bedrooms, two full baths, spacious kitchen, working AC, Hot water, and laundry; what more do you need.THE BACKYARDAmazing: I want this. Pool and overflow hot tub, tiki hut, dock, canal, dolphins, birds, palm trees, and a sunrise worth getting up for. I can't say how much I could live in that yard year-roundOVERALLI really really really want to say bad things here so I can be selfish and have the place anytime I want, but I can't. The house is older but overall amazing. Happy to return if Brian and Sue will have us.

Victoria M.Paradise
We had an amazing stay. It felt like we were in our own tropical oasis. We loved sitting outside at night admiring the beautiful yard that felt like paradise and waking up in the morning drinking coffee with such a wonderful view. Our family enjoyed the pool, hot tub, fishing and kayaking. Everything we needed was provided for our stay. Fishing poles, bikes, kayaks, beach chairs, cooler, etc. (the list goes on). The home is clean and beautifully decorated. Brian and Sue were very easy to contact if we had any questions. We will definitely visit our tropical paradise again!

Dave B.A perfect cure for the winter blues
This home is just as described, a private little slice of paradise. Its located on a cul-de-sac off the beaten path with a view of the Peace river from the back yard. The spa and pool are awsome. Thank you Brian for this much needed winter break.
