About this property

Be our guest! We love our Punta Gorda home and we can't wait to share it with you- book your stay to see why we love it here!

Enjoy your time out on the lanai and take a dip in the heated pool. You may never want to leave this space!
You can try your luck at fishing off of the oversized dock…or simply enjoy the quiet lake vibes of the canal.

Punta Gorda has a great variety of restaurants within just a few minutes of the house (by car). A few of our favorites are The Riviera, Jelly Bird Café, F.M Don's, Penny’s Speakeasy, and Harpoon Harry's.

Fisherman's Village is just 5 minutes away and a great place for dining and shopping! (Naples Soap is my favorite store....but Simply Sweet comes in a very close second!) You really can't beat the shopping with a view here- it's a great place to spend a few hours. There are also fishing trips, kayak rentals, and harbor tours at Fisherman's Village.

There’s a huge Farmer’s Market downtown on Saturday mornings- it’s a great place to get fresh fruit and veggies and local arts and crafts. Make sure to leave some room in your suit case! On Sundays at History Park there’s also a great craft fair with a ton of different vendors to check out.

Looking for nature? Make sure to check out Ponce de Leon (amazing sunsets!) or Gilchrest Parks! You can find gorgeous beaches within 30-40 minutes of Punta Gorda- there are many to choose from.

This house sleeps 6-8 people but offers privacy with a split floor plan and two bathrooms. It's located on a quiet cul de sac.
A few of our amenities include: linens, pillows, bath towels, kitchen utensils, propane grill, and laundry. There are some pool floaties and beach towels available. Many extras are provided for your enjoyment- but we'd love your feedback on how to make your stay even better.

Most relaxing stay!

The house is beautiful and our host was an absolute jem. We stayed 4 nights and had the best time. The pool was so perfect and the views are spectacular! We enjoyed watching the boats go by; while we sat outside and enjoyed our meals. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

Punta Gorda is a great discovery!

We had a wonderful time staying in PG. Boating, dining, golfing, hiking, and shopping were many of our activities. However we loved chilling at the house, sunning and swimming daily! So relaxing!

Lovely Stay

I stayed at the property for 11 nights. We had a wonderful stay. The house has been nicely renovated. The property owner was very friendly/helpful made it feel like you were staying at a friends house. The house had everything we needed plus things I didn't even know I would need. Would stay here again for sure!

Beautiful home!

The house was great, very clean and roomy. We were there visiting family and the location was perfect for us. It was very close to Fisherman's village which was a lot of fun with many shops and restarants. The pool was perfect for kids and they really enjoyed it. 🌞🙂

Beautiful place

Very clean good size house for 6 people, great view of the canal sitting in the living room or by the pool. Only downfall would be pool was cold was hard to get in and swim even though it was 88 degrees outside, other than that we are thinking about renting again later this year.

Relaxing Summer Getaway - Part 2

This was our second year in a row of staying at this great vacation home. The area, the beautiful house, and most importantly the relaxing pool brought us back for a 2023 visit. This summer, our family including two precious furbabies thoroughly enjoyed our stay. We were centrally located for day trips to different beaches and discovered areas we had not yet visited. Lindsay was very responsive to any questions we had and was very welcoming!

Wonderful Stay

Beautiful home. Well appointed and nicely decorated. While the home is dog friendly which was a big selling point for us, you would never know that walking into the place. So whether you are vacationing with a pet or not, this is a great place to stay. It has a great pool area facing due west which was great for mid or late day swims and cocktails. Lindsay was super attentive and responsive to make sure our stay was smooth from start to finish. I would not hesitate to stay here again.

Perfect fit for us

Loved it!! Clean, well equipped, nothing broken, great floor plan, comfortable. One of the very best VRBO’s I have ever stayed in. We had 17 people for Christmas dinner; it was not crowded and we had plenty of dishes and pans.

Lovely home with a very nice setting

We needed a place to stay for a week while our home was being repaired due to hurricane Ian's damage. This home was only a few minutes from our home, so it was perfect for us to relax and keep up with the repair progress. The house is clean and comfortable and the owners were considerate and kept in touch.

Great home for a boating vacation

Picked this home as it appeared to have a dock that could accommodate our boat for a family vacation. We planned long weekend of trips to Cayo Coasta, Cabbage Key and Gasparilla Island. This home ended up being the perfect jumping off point for our trip. There were multiple boat ramps near the property to drop the boat in the water and the home had a nice new concrete dock and boat lift just 20 steps past the backyard pool! The property owners quickly responded to my questions and were checked in with us during the stay to ensure all was well. The home is perfect for a family of 7 and had everything you needed to a week of relaxing on the water. Will definitely stay at this property again!

Wonderful home, location, and owner interaction

The home was appointed very nicely and very clean. Beds were comfortable and bedding very nice. The pool was big enough and deep enough for the adults to have a refreshing swim and for the kids to play. Loved seeing dolphins in the canal multiple times. The owners were great at communicating before we arrived as we asked questions, throughout our stay, and afterwards as well. We would definitely stay here again!

About the host

Hosted by Chris and Lindsay Hourscht

Hi! We’re Chris and Lindsay from Minnesota. We have three busy boys: Cash, Charlie and Coby ❤️
Chris owns a martial arts school and is a 6th degree black belt! I am a literacy tutor at an elementary school when I’m not being the taxi getting the boys to workouts, wrestling, tennis, karate, baseball, basketball, soccer, or swimming! Our family loves sports- especially seeing the MN Twins at Spring Training in sunny Florida. We love spending time on the lake fishing and pontooning- you can’t beat a Minnesota summer!

Why they chose this property

We found Punta Gorda through friends from MN and fell in love with the area right away. The city has a small town feel which we enjoy. You really can’t beat all of the amazing restaurant options- which is my favorite part of any vacation! It’s a great place for browsing consignment shops, checking out the HUGE farmer’s market, or finding a spot to enjoy a cocktail near the water.

What makes this property unique

We’ve made our Punta Gorda house a place where you can just walk in and relax. We fell in love with the huge sliding doors out to the lanai and think you’ll love them too- it’s a pretty great view.
