Playful Pelican 3/2 waterfront pool house w. direct access to Gulf SW Cape Coral

Ideal location by land or water. Minutes to Tarpon Point Marina, Cape Harbor and downtown Cape Coral. 15 minutes by water to the Caloosahatchee River and 30 minutes to Gulf. We have remodeled the kitchen and are continuing to make improvements throughout the house. Bring your boat and enjoy everything SWFL has to offer! We have a completely open pool and a large yard to enjoy. We supply a pair of bicycles and other fun items to make your stay even more enjoyable. We LOVE making our guests happy, so please offer suggestions throughout your stay.
Our house is a 1 minute walk from Rotary Park - one of the best parks in the Cape and is located on one of the best walking/biking paths in Lee County. Come, check us out - you'll be happy you did.
*Please note that the garage is being used as storage - it is not available as part of the rental. There is ample space in the driveway.
**We recently installed a (removable) child gate and 2 security cameras for the pool area. The security cameras are at both ends of the pool deck and point away from the house (toward the pool and canal). These features are no substitute for monitoring any kids (or adults) that are on the pool deck.
During your stay at this holiday home, you're just a quick walk from Rotary Park Environmental Center. Enjoy features like an outdoor pool and laundry facilities. The holiday home includes amenities such as free WiFi and a private pool.

Perfect and Restful!

This home is beautiful, clean, and restful from the moment you step inside the door! There is a lot of natural light, and the view is beautiful over the canal and pool in the back yard. It is spacious, and the beds are comfortable. The owner is very quick to respond if there are any questions, and checkout procedure is very simple. We really enjoyed our stay, and would definitely stay here again!

All the amenities and then some….

The owner was very accommodating and let us check in earlier than the normal check-in time. The house is beautiful and very clean. It had a fully stocked kitchen and had extras like pool towels, beach towels, and pool noodles/floats and life jackets for the kids. The neighborhood is amazing and the neighbors were really friendly and even cheering on the kids for catching fish in the canal (in the backyard of the house). This house has something for everyone. The guys loved fishing out in the backyard and us ladies loved the in ground pool.

Not as advertised but still beautiful

The house itself was nice inside. Nothing above average. The house stays pretty cool. The pool isn't protected from sun or bugs so that was a big big disappointment. Owner also advertised as having boats and bikes available which were however at an extra cost that wasn't listed on the original ad. Had I not quickly picked last moment i definitely wouldve chosen something else but I guess it wasn't terrible.

Relaxing Vacation

Playful Pelican is in a quiet neighborhood with easy access to all the amenities SW Florida has to offer. We appreciated the simple traffic near us, the abundance of walking paths, the heated pool, and the restaurants nearby (not walking distance by close car rides). Corey responded within minutes to any texts we sent and was very accomodating with any requests. I would highly recommend Playful Pelican!

We had a nice stay but I didn’t like the cameras by the pool and we got bit up real bad from the noseeums. We used spray and yard guard. Not sure what else we could have done to prevent it. Overall very nice house and very clean. Which i appreciate.

Great Stay!

We had a great time at the Playful Pelican. The kitchen is well-stocked and made cooking for Thanksgiving easy. There were a few blown lightbulbs that need to be replaced, and there didn’t seem to be a way to turn on the pool light. Other than this few inconveniences, our stay was fabulous.

Perfect Getaway

This property is more than it says. It’s beautiful, up to date, everything inside and out is perfect. The house was very clean, had everything we needed. The pool was perfect! We saw two dolphins swim by, and we were able to catch several fish. The teens were able to enjoy the kayaks which aren’t stated, nice surprise for us. We are considering this exact house yearly. It’s very peaceful and exactly what we were looking for. We can’t say enough good about the house.

A great week

To start the weather was fabulous which led us into the pool w/out the heater. The solar cover did the job. We had easy access to all the major highways which led us to visit Naples & Marco Island. There are great waterfront restaurants in the area also.

All the comforts of home

The house was great! The house had everything to be very comfortable. Kitchen was well stocked with everything you could possibly need. Paper products, bath tissue and several spices were a pleasant welcome. The pool was great as was the location. The home had great walking paths, parks and shopping within a very short distance. We totally enjoyed our stay!
