Click to email me
This Florida
vacation rental home is on the water with a very
nice view of the water from the dining area out the sliding glass
doors. This is in a very quiet residential
community where you can relax and enjoy your
vacation and fish from the dock or from the boat.. It has a
new deck overlooking the dock / water / boats. All linens are supplied.
All you need is your tooth brush and your clothes.
This
picture shows the view from the dining table
which is just inside the sliding glass doors
leading to the deck. This is a typical winter
day, with clear blue sky and deep blue water.
Our guests enjoy watching the sunsets from the deck
and enjoying the local beaches.
This is a community with hundreds of waterfront
homes. The sandy white beach at the local
beaches is very nice. The
Gulf beaches are very calm and children friendly, not at all like the Destin / Panama City or
Atlantic beaches.
This Florida vacation rental home will help make your vacation a
great family experience!

folks if you have visitors during your
stay. The walls throughout are
varnished mahogany or oak in keeping with the
feeling of the "Captain's
Quarters".

Here is a picture of the kitchen with the new
stove and tile counter tops. It is
compact and easy to keep looking nice.
Typically, one of the first things that our guest families do is go to the
grocery store, which is a short 5 minute drive from the house. This house has everything you need for a great vacation.
The Whitney Fresh Gulf Seafood Market is just
.7 miles from the Captain's Quarters.

On the other side of the kitchen is the dining

located.
The Deck has picnic table and chairs for
enjoying the view from outside.

"Master Bedroom"
The Master bedroom has a new queen size bed. Accommodations
suitable for a Captain !
All linens are provided with our homes. The cleaning crew
typically cleans the home the day of your arrival, so it is
"spic and span" when you get there.

"The Crew
Quarters"
The second bedroom ( the crew's quarters) has 2 single
beds.
This Captain's Quarters vacation home is a great vacation
home for a couple or a family with 2 or 3 children.

 LOCAL
BEACH
This wonderful beach is Hudson Beach and is on
the Gulf Of Mexico. It is about 3 minutes
from the Captain's Quarters vacation home.
This picture was taken in January and note the
crystal clear blue sky and the warm sunshine.
You and your kids will enjoy this beach and the
local restaurants where you can get a "Grouper
Sandwich and Fries" and a cold pitcher of your
favorite beverage!. This is just 2 miles from the
house.I

 LOCAL
BEACH
This is a picture of the covered shad area where
you can sit during the summer and watch you
children play in the water.
Personally, I like this beach a lot better than
Clearwater beach, One of the reasons is because
there is NO SHADE on Clearwater beach unless you
rent an umbrella from one of the vendors.

 LOCAL
BEACH
This beach truly has something for
everybody. You can see in the background the
swings and playground for the young children.
One of the features I like is that you can drive
right up to the sand at the beach, you do not have
to pay to park and walk for a LONG distance like
you do at Clearwater Beach.

Here is the local sea food restaurant. They have
entertainment like Reggie Bands and others. I
have eaten here and recommend it.

Great Fishing
Speaking of speckled trout (specks) hanging out in the grass
flats, that is where our guest, the gentleman on the left, caught these 2 HUGH Speckled Sea Trout
(Specks). You can bring your boat or use ours.
If you are like me, you can hear fish like these calling your name,
asking where you are and why you are not fishing !!!
The fellow on the right is Rich Knox, one of the premier fishing
guides on this coast of Florida.

 Use
our boat or bring your own!
This is one of our guests in their own boat at the island
named Anclote
Key State Park . We have Aluminum fishing boats with
10hp

the grass flats in the area and for going out to the beautiful islands.
