Estero Vacation Rentals, Homes, Condos, Villas and Beach Rentals
Estero
is a small town located along Highway 41 between Fort Myers and Bonita Springs in beautiful southwest Florida. The Estero River meanders westward from the town of Estero, with lots of twists and turns through tropical surroundings, making it perfect for canoeing and kayaking. There are many sightings along the way of osprey, hawks, eagles, great blue herons, otters and other wildlife. A short distance from the mouth of the river is Mound Key State Park, the ancient Indian shell mound, with hiking trails and impressive views. Another interesting place to visit is the Koreshan State Historic Site, located on the banks of the Estero River. This site dates back to 1894 and has restored buildings and gardens. Camping is also available at the site. The town of Estero is just thirty minutes to Fort Myers Beach, and a short drive to the famous shopping and fine dining at Naples and Sanibel Island. The nearby island beaches of southwest Florida are considered some of best in the state, with miles of soft, white sand and gorgeous turquoise waters. Estero is also home to the Pelican Sound Golf & River Club, with 27 holes of championship golf, tennis, a swimming pool and a lovely Mediterranean style clubhouse. Conveniently located near I-75, Estero is only 15 minutes to Southwest Florida International Airport and home to the new Corkscrew Village Shopping Plaza.
Southwest Florida weather is one of the area's biggest assets. The region surrounding Fort Myers and Captiva/Sanibel Island is balmy in April and May, hot and humid (but bearable) June through September, and mild and sunny the rest of the year. The rainy season is June through September, with lots of showers and thunderstorms. The number of days without rain in the summer averages about 15. Late summer is hurricane season in the Gulf of Mexico. The winter months, when it is drier with less humidity and almost perfect temperatures, is a great time to enjoy southwest Florida's weather. The white sand beaches of the Gulf and the nearby Caloosahatchee River provide visitors and residents plenty of scenic opportunities to enjoy this wonderful weather, also.
