OK Stay

The inside of the place was clean, but is showing its age. The ventilation in the sleeping area needed two fans to circulate the cool ac air The fish cleaning station had fish scales and other residue between the large cutting board and the sink. There is a great ice machine on the front poach and being able to back right up to the front door was great for loading and unloading.

Excellent communication by owner

A couple things went wrong during this stay, but the owners were excellent with everything. Great communication. Understanding ownership and responsive. Nothing that they could control, but the way they handled it was great. I would stay there again in a heartbeat. Great quiet location right in the marina dock your boat right beside, or behind the houseboat. Perfect for any hunting, fishing, or just get away trip.

Tucked away from all the noise, was a nice change from the typical boathouse experience. Enjoyed being able to offload straight onto the house. Owner was responsive the entire time.

Frat house on the water

The place had a musky smell and was surfaced clean but pretty dirty. The cabinets and counter top were very nice and the swamp outside was very cool. This a place for a bunch of men fishing, but not a place for a couple or anyone with a mold allergy.

Trout House Review

Pros: Great location with ample parking. Comfortably sleeps 4 people. Washer and dryer was a huge benefit. Owners are very quick to respond to messages. Cons: The sewer smell was very strong when we arrived. The owners were very quick to address it, but the smell never really went away. There is no Traeger grill as pictured. And the house wasn’t very clean. (Used snuff pouch on the ground near fridge, crumbs and wrapper pieces on floor in kitchen/living, heavy dust in corners). We went through and cleaned before unpacking our things. (This problem just needs to be addressed with whoever is hired to clean.) Overall a good experience! The space accommodated our group well.

Fish camp

We were in Venice for 2 days of offshore and 1 day of teal hunting. The camp worked perfectly for our trip. We had room to dock my 32' offshore boat as well as a 16' duck boat.

Everything about this stay was perfect. Doesn't come with a traeger which we were excited about, but it has a grill and works perfectly fine would 100% recommend.

Excellent Property

Property has everything you need to enjoy a fishing trip in Venice! Plenty of beds that are comfortable, fully stocked kitchen, outdoor cleaning station with grill, and icemaker. We had a wonderful time. Excellent communication with property owners with minor questions, and also with advice on where to fish in the area. Definitely recommend!

Problems

We only stayed one night there is a major problem with the main ac when you turn it on it fills the house with a raw sewage smell so strong we had to open the door and windows to air out the place so we turned off the ac and tried to sleep in the heat so we left the next day we could not stay another night in those conditions

Liked the place very much. However there was confusion over the cleaning fee. I blame expedia/VRBO for this, not the owner. I would rent in the future, but not through expedia. If this place was on VRBO I would rent.

Awesome place!

Great houseboat in a really nice location at Cypress Cove Marina with pretty views of Cypress trees across the canal. Comfortable beds, good kitchen and everything you need for a stay in Venice. Good, convenient boat parking on the back dock and you can pull your vehicle right to the front door of the house to unload gear. Host Chris was very accommodating and helpful during our stay, and went out of his way to mail something we left behind. Definitely recommend!
