Nadeen was the best host I have ever dealt with. We called with a question about life jackets and she answered several other questions for us and sent pictures of the ramp and how to get to monkey island. House was well stocked with paper products and kitchen items. We were only ther for 2 days and thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
We enjoyed our stay very much. The home is equipped with just about everything you needed.

Place was listed with boat ramp, but there was no dock or place to tie your boat up when using the ramp, and it could use some work. Also, description said you could keep your boat in the cove nearby, and it had rocks, and was mucky. So, it turned out unusable for us.

From the owners: "Hi Frederick, thank you for staying at the Upper Deck and taking the time to post your review. As mentioned prior to your arrival on the phone when we spoke, the cove is not for everyone. There is no dock or seawall that can be used and therefore you must jump on and off your boat. The picture we sent you showed how close the cove is to the home and how convenient it is, but again, it's not for everyone. Our private boat ramp is enjoyed by all who use it because the only other options are public ramps that you pay for and wait in long lines to use. It is a launch and go ramp. We always try to give total clarity to all so they know what to expect. So sorry the cove and ramp were not to your liking."
This property and host was one of the best rentals of all time! The house is gorgeous and full of anything you could need from shampoo and conditioner, to kayaks and paddle boards. Swimming with manatees was just the icing on the cake! My family and I will 100% be back!!!
