Wake up to waterfront living, with breathtaking sunset views overlooking the intercostal waterway in this boater's paradise.

A 30-night minimum stay applies year-round.

Sorry to say, but your furry friends are not allowed for renting. However, you'll note that residents might have their own pets on the property — all vetted, and always on a leash. We have no issue with the manatee that decide to sunbathe in the lagoon.

Please go to the Calendar/Availability section — we update it regularly. From there, we'll ask you to step through a manual process, including a traditional short-term lease review and execution, pending approval by property management. While this may feel like extra steps compared to what you're used to, these procedures help ensure the quality of living is sustained for everyone on the property.

Yes, secured garaged parking is included, along with elevator access.

Yes, there is! You'll need to supply your own kayak, but we'll provide room for two on the community rack. There are also bike racks in the garage you can lock up — but once again, you'll need to bring your own bike.

Yes — utilities are included free of charge, along with an in-unit laundry room with washer and dryer.

Right at the property's doorstep is the Blackburn Point Swing Bridge — a nearly 100-year-old, hand-operated bridge and one of the last of its kind still working in Florida. And just down the street on U.S. 41 is the newly-designated Dickey Betts Memorial Highway, honoring the Allman Brothers Band co-founder who called Osprey home. That's just the start.
