It's called The River Shack... but it's more like The River "Chic" ... You will feel like you are at an all inclusive private resort here at The River Shack - completely and privately inclusive for you!
Each bedroom has a queen bed to sleep a total of four guests. The living room is furnished with a sofa bed to accommodate two additional guests. The kitchen is fully equipped for preparation of all meals. A laundry room is on site as well, so pack as little or as much as you like!
Enjoy an enormous outside entertainment area to include an outdoor kitchen, lots of dining space, fire pit, heated pool & spa all while admiring the amazing view of the Imperial River.
You will love the tranquil, peaceful sounds of the wildlife! Take advantage of the kayak and paddle boards and keep an eye out for dolphins and manatee!
The River Shack is a nice bike ride away from the up and coming Downtown Bonita Springs... check out the Survey Cafe, the Downtown Wine & Coffee Company and the newly opened Rooftop at Riverside. You may even be around for a concert event or festival at Riverside Park. Of course, Bonita Beach is just about 5 miles away. So much to do!

Great communication, great pool/hot tub, great house, great stay! Really liked the outdoor area and had everything we needed! Very fast internet! Would love to come back and stay again!
The house was wonderful! It was clean and looked just like the online images. We loved the pool and jacuzzi. My son enjoyed fishing off the dock. The location of the house was also great, close to everything we needed. The property manager was responsive when I reached out with a question. Very happy with our stay!!
We spent two awesome weeks enjoying this perfect spot of relaxation. Florida one floor living at it's best. Great location close to Rte 41 with everything you need close by. The pool and spa couldn't be better. Love all the landscape lighting at night and the pool lights. We'll definitely be back again.
Had another amazing stay at the river shack. It's becoming a home away from home. Love the location, the wildlife on the river, and of course relaxing in the pool. Thank you again to our host Nardi! See you soon!
Wonderful home, clean and inviting. Patio is fantastic, as is the pool and hot tub. The shower is fab! Enjoyed the wild life which is abundant on the river. Many herons, egrets, manatees (saw 4) and an occasional dolphin. Nesting osprey in neihboring property. Host was great and made sure everything was perfect for us.
We absolutely loved the River Shack. We needed a weekend to relax and reset, this was a the perfect place for that. The property is stunning and the view is amazing! We will definitely be back!
This house is beautiful, no doubt about that. Meticulously clean, with an awesome location and an outdoor setup that makes you never want to leave. We had a few problems arise but the owner was quick to respond. Just a heads up, there is one dishwasher pod, one detergent pod, and 2 garbage bags for the week. We’ve rented many homes in beach towns and found it a bit odd that there was no cooler, beach chairs, can coozies, etc. Also, this was the first host that didn’t leave a welcome basket or note of any kind. That being said, we had a wonderful time. The house really is spectacular..
This is the coolest house! The outdoor area is perfect! The decor and style at this place indoor and out is top notch. It was a perfect fit for our family of 4. Would definitely book it again. Thanks for an amazing seamless stay.
Property is absolutely beautiful and exactly as shown and stated online! Loved every minute of stay and will definitely stay again! Landscaping and outdoors is lovely and relaxing.
Had a great week at the “River Shack”. Perfect location for a father/son fishing getaway. House is conveniently located right on the Imperial River. Amazing backyard with pool, hot tub, kayak, paddle board. Fish right off the dock! Property matches description and host is readily available/proactive in communication/helpful! Can’t wait to return soon!!
Fantastic design interior, creative and beautiful with peaceful elements surrounded by plants and peace and quiet,,best place to escape to for one or two people.
