I love this property. I live in St. Pete and have stayed here a couple of times when I had work done on my house. It is a bit set off of the beaten path but a short drive to anything you would want. I love the public trail that passes by the property in one direction there are views of Old Tampa Bay in the other winding through mangroves to underneath the flight path for planes landing at the Tampa airport. Very cool! Adequate pool. Boardwalk on site through the mangroves to an observation pergola overlooking Tampa Bay. Read less
