weathered boardwalk takes you from the dock to the vacation home. Beautifully crafted like a ship of tropical hardwoods, the house is built in the traditional "Old Florida" style.

Notes: A sophisticated solar energy system provides power for all electrical needs, including such amenities as ceiling fans, telephone, a microwave, and coffee bean grinder, but there is no air conditioning to distract from the appreciation of a coexistence with nature. The 20,000 gallon cistern collects fresh water and is decorated with shells, broken glass and coral rock imbedded in its sides....a work of art in itself!
Recycling utilizes the bountiful resources...seaweed is harvested and composted, gray waste water irrigates plants and fruit trees which provide tropical delights to Island guests. Feeding the table scraps to the fish under the docks, which are a delight to snorkelers, can save a trip to the fish market for a succulent snapper on the dinner table!
