Waterfront House, 2 Bdr, 2 bath, Boat Lift, Trailer Parking, and 2 Kayaks

House upgraded in April 2023 on the water across from Sanibel Island at the end of Monroe Canal. Enjoy the awesome view from the deck overlooking the mangroves and water. Bring your boat, boat lift included. Launch the included kayaks, the bikes, or just kick back on the deck watching the boats and dolphins. Great fishing awaits you in the sound, or head out into the gulf for the really big catch. This property is at the end of a canal which greatly decreases your no-wake time navigating canals both going out and coming back in. Monroe Canal Marina boat ramp just up the canal.

You will find it very clean. Great WIFI throughout! 10% discount on rentals for 28 days or more.

Pine Island is more of a slow island style tempo than even the rest of western Florida. There are several bars and restaurants close by, but no high rise condos on Pine Island. The neighborhood is mostly seniors and families with grandchildren. Frequent visitors from the sea include dolphins right in front of the villa. Ample parking in the driveway for a boat trailer. Boat rentals and Golf Cart rentals available close by. Saint James City, is a street legal golf cart community! Incredible view at this price. Compare a final price quote with other properties, no cleaning fee, zero! There is a $100 pet fee.

The house was perfect for us! We absolutely loved the view and ease of access with our boat. This is a paradise for people who like to fish. Watching all the boats come in and out of the canal was fun. The accommodations were fine. We wish there was a king size bed. The home had everything we needed.

What a view! What wildlife!

We are repeat renters and have found our little spot in the warmer climate! It is far from the crowd that is now typical of Florida! Every day we are entertained by the many boats going up and down the canal and the regular visits from dolphins, water birds and manatees. Can’t imagine a better spot!

Fishing, Wildlife and Location

My husband is an avid kayak fisherman. He was able to launch right at the culdesac where the house is located. The fishing was amazing! He may never fresh water fish again. We all really appreciated the fact that the house is at the end of York Rd. Very little traffic. My sister and I loved the view from the back deck. The dolphin and manatee visit daily. Which we loved! The pelicans were so much fun to watch. They feed right there in the canal, with the dolphin and manatee. The people on the island are very friendly. Access to restaurants and shopping is super easy. We all had such a wonderful time! Can’t wait to go back.

Fisherman's Paradise

Great location with stunning views. House is at the end of a cul de sac, so it's quiet with very little traffic. Fish right from the backyard or rent a boat and park it on the private lift.
