Our family of five first visited Matlacha Island during the 2015 Christmas holiday. We rented a small house and had planned a list of activities to enjoy in the area. Our three teen aged boys walked out back to throw out a few fishing lines while we unpacked the car and that is where they remained (pretty much) until we repacked the car a week later. The truth is they walked to the bridge… to fish, went out on the kayaks… to fish, and went on an off shore charter… to fish. My husband and I enjoyed some fishing and kayaking along side of them but also took time to appreciate the local shops, art galleries, and restaurants. Seafood just doesn’t come any fresher than here!
We fell in love with the town and with the people of Matlacha during that week and found ourselves, less than a year later, falling in love with our “Canal Life” home. We have put great time and effort into creating an environment that will give you the comforts of home with the relaxation of a vacation. Our family wishes you the dream vacation of peace, tranquility, and family fun that we found on Matlacha and hope that you enjoy living the Canal Life as much as we do.
“Everyday is a Good Day in Matlacha!”
Blessings to your family from ours,
The Brannons
