Leading from the pool and cabana is the
Boardwalk which will
take you to the
shores of the stunning 400 acre
Lake Davenport.
Tantalising
glimpses of the lake lead
you, through an archway of foliage, to
the boating and fishing ramp, where,
for the first time you will see the huge
expanse of shimmering water, which is
Lake Davenport.

Don’t confuse this fabulous stretch of
water, set in a conservation area, with
the
man made soakaways that many
developments describe as ‘lakes’!

"Your
first sight of this magnificent lake will give you a
taste of the real Florida – amazing wildlife, soaring
birds on the wing, blue, blue skies, and iridescent water
that is as still as a millpond – utterly magical........"

Edged by soaring trees, reflected in the water,
you will enjoy your first sight of
this tranquil lake,
as it stretches out on the horizon. Sit
awhile,
and maybe relax and read a book from our
extensive library, or perhaps just chill out and
watch the wildlife.

"The
choice is entirely yours - whether its bird watching,
picnicking, reading a book or simply soaking up the
scenery, all you have to do is sit back and relax, and
let the cares of the world simply pass you by......" |

The lake itself is simply teeming with
fish, so it’s the perfect place to cast
your line. We even provide the rods for
you to use during your stay in our home.
All
you need is a tin of ‘Spam’ or some
bait from Walmart! In no time at all you
will have a Bluegill (bream) dangling from
your line.
Boating is also permitted, and you may
catch sight of a boat drifting lazily past.

Imagine the children's faces and their
excitement when they catch their first
Floridian fish - a perfect photo
opportunity - the one that didn't get
away!

The
sun is setting, casting fingers of gold across the water, with
the promise of yet
another glorious day in Florida tomorrow. The final rays of the
sun disappear below
the horizon , and the sky turns from a spectacular pink, through
peach and then to
deep purple, before darkness finally wraps its velvety cloak around
you.
As
you stroll gently back to the villa, you can plan the next day's
adventures,
happy in the knowledge that you have made the right choice.
Don't
YOU wish you were here?
