Windows & Doors:
Because of the high humidity and critters in Florida, it is not recommended to leave windows or doors open for extended periods of time. We kindly ask that all windows and doors remain closed during your stay. If a critter makes its way inside, please inform Steve or Nichole immediately so we can have the issue addressed.

Canal Patio:
Down by the canal is a 10x20 patio with 4 adirondack chairs and a small fire table for chilly nights. There is a lot of wildlife in the canal to enjoy watching, including but not limited to: otters, fish, turtles, iguanas, and many varieties of birds. The neighbor across the canal feeds corn to the birds and ducks, which is fun to watch. You may want to buy an extra loaf of bread to feed small chunks to the fish and birds as well. *Please note that there may also be alligators on occasion, so make sure children are watched at all times and do not play in the brush down by the canal. For safety reasons, children must wear life jackets while down by the canal.

Kayaks:
There are 3 single kayaks and paddles available for your use. They are located near the far end of the fenced in area of the extra lot. Lifejackets are required and can be found in the closet next to the pool bath on the lanai. Please note that the depth of the water in the canal varies throughout the year. It is high during the summer months when it rains often, and low in the winter months when it doesn’t rain often. There is a ladder on the side of the patio that can be used when the water is really low.

The Grill:
To operate the grill: Turn knob counter clockwise on the propane tank valve to open. Then turn the knobs on the grill to ignite. When you are done, be sure to close the propane tank valve, and clean the grill.

*Please note that there will be a $35 fee if the grill is not cleaned or the propane is left on.

If the propane tank is empty, there is an extra one in the garage. Please let us know so we can have it filled and ready for the next time there is an empty tank.

Parking on the street in Cape Coral is prohibited. Please keep vehicles parked in the driveway at all times. We have a 4 vehicle maximum per group due to the size of our driveway.

Pet Free Home:
Please note that Paradise Cove is a pet free home. We have some animal allergies in our family, so we are unable to accommodate even the smallest of pets. Thank you for understanding.
