Gulf access, new windows, quiet neighborhood.

Kayaks and bikes available. Fish from the dock or bring you boat. Or simply relax in the new screens patio to enjoy Florida weather and birds.

Whether you're dreaming of kicking up your feet to watch manatees and birds or if you're feeling adventurous to bike, kayak, boat, and fish; your group can be comfortable in this vacation home. This spacious home is located on a saltwater canal that leads out to Gulf of Mexico. It is located in the Gulf Harbor neighborhood of New Port Richey. Entrance to the neighborhood is by Widow Fletchers restaurant. Golf carts cruise the neighborhood and there are many local events in this area that help visitors feel welcome. The home was recently updated in many ways and we're happy to host guests now.

Spacious home fit for salt life. A screened porch overlooks the canal and can be accessed from the dining room. On the opposite side of the dining room is a king bedroom that also has a full water view. Galley-style kitchen is fitted with the basics to be comfortable for a long weekend or a seasonal getaway. A cozy sitting area is just off the kitchen and dining room for enjoying a morning coffee. There is a nook off the dining room that has a small secretary desk if you would like a place to setup your laptop. Next to the kitchen is a bathroom with shower. The other bathroom has a full bathtub and is in the main hallway next to an additional king bedroom, that has a TV, and queen bedroom. The living room is at the front of the house. Enjoy tv apps and spectrum cable when you're not out enjoying the beautiful weather.

Our floating dock is suitable for launching kayaks (we provide 2 with life jackets) and docking your boat. If you'd like to bring your boat, there are local boat launches and you may tie up at our dock. Public launches not too far. You may park the boat trailer in our driveway but no parking on the street. No swimming or diving is allowed in the canal. To reach the gulf from our dock, you'll need to cross under the Floramar bridge. Clearance is 6ft at normal high tide and 10 and normal low, but remember to keep an eye on tide charts since the gulf will dictate if tides have a bigger swing on specific dates. Most pontoons, fishing boats, and skiffs are fine as long as they don’t have a tall center console. 4 bikes are available and stored in the garage along with helmets. The single car garage is a bit antique. It is connected to the house with access through the laundry room but is manual operation only so I suspect most guests will park in the driveway. Sunwest Golf Carts will deliver to the house if you'd like to rent a club car to cruise around in (approx $100/wk - call them for details though).

For those who may have visited the Gulf harbors neighborhood in the past, please note there is security at the private neighborhood beach which only allows owners and longer-term guests. If you're booking an extended visit, we can help you with this but it's not meant for the weekly visitors. Public beach access is available about 10 minutes away though. We provide beach towels. Bath towels and beach towels are in the cabinet next to the washing machine.

Many waterfront restaurants in the area. Downtown New Port Richey is a fun place to window shop and explore dining options as well. Scallop season is popular in this area if you'd like to rent a boat or go out with a tour group. Fishing is accessible right off our dock and licenses are available online.

Wifi login is located on the back of the router, which is located next to the living room TV.
