Wonderful Canal
We enjoyed this wonderful canal property. We fished everyday red fish, small stingray, blue crab the dolphins were chasing fish into the canal. We used the kayaks and we enjoyed watching all of the different birds that would stop by the property. The sunsets are beautiful. Thank you for sharing this lovely property!!

Perfect stay.
Check in process was seamless and easy, we really liked how clean and organized the property was. Everything was as advertised and we will be back next year. No more new port richey hotels for us, we are spoiled now by this place. Kayaks and life jackets were a nice touch also. You can tell the owner takes great pride in the property, great stay.

Sun, Fresh Air, Comfort and Relaxation
This property was perfect for us. Water views, sunsets, comfortable furniture and the king bed had a good mattress. We have been to Hudson many times (have family who live nearby) and this house was one of the nicest. We love to sit in a screen porch and read and relax and this one was perfect. From one side we could see the gulf and sunset. from the other we could see Cow's Creek. Also had good birdwatching. Even saw an eagle.
