Key Marco cat, c.1600s.

Region: Florida.

This tribal representation of a kneeling cougar was part of an extraordinary archaeological find on Marco Island in 1896. This area of south-west Florida was originally populated by the Calusa Indians – hunter-gatherers who are known to have been fierce warriors. They fished in the estuaries and have been dubbed ‘The Shell People’ because of the great mounds of shells that have also been found here. They were scattered and disappeared soon after the Spanish explorers came to the area.

The Calusa were skilled artisans, and more than 1,000 pieces were discovered at the Key Marco site at the northern tip of the island, including masks and weapons, ceramics, bone and shell artefacts, some of which date back to the sixth century CE. The site was discovered by Captain W. D. Collier and excavated by Frank Hamilton Cushing. Dating from the seventeenth century, the cat is about 15cm (6 in) high and is in remarkably good condition. It is carved from wood and represents a feline/human figure. The anaerobic properties of the mud had preserved it for centuries.

Reasons To Opt For Weekly House Rentals in Bonita Springs, Marco Island, Naples, Pelican Bay, and North Naples, FL

Winter, with snow lying thickly on the ground, is a time when individuals descend upon places with mild weather. Sure, the beach-side resorts are top-rated in winter, but a family with several children and pets in tow needs more than just a hotel room to relax and enjoy the winter holidays. No worries! The vacationer may pick and choose from the numerous vacation homes available. This serves as a home away from home replete with every amenity imaginable. Moreover, people often look for a house rental with a pool in Marco Island, Naples, and Bonita Springs, FL. This helps to keep the boisterous children occupied actively and keep an eye on them at the same time. ​ True, vacation homes with pools do not come cheap, but an individual who is looking to get away from the humdrum of life has no qualms about paying just a trifle more. Some of the benefits that one may expect by moving into a home with a swimming pool on its premises include the following:-

· Recreation- The swimming pool is often a major attraction for the guests. Both the adults and children enjoy swimming during leisure and play games in the pool. What’s more? It helps adults exercise while not walking or cycling while enjoying the holiday. Moreover, a group can enjoy a poolside party and have a wonderful time without adding to their costs.

· Physical Fitness—Admittedly, leisure and vacation time give one an excuse to skip diet and physical exercise. Thankfully, spending time in the pool replenishes the loss and enables the users to stay fit and healthy regardless of wrong diets and zero walks.

· Comfort- Even a mother who is hard-pressed for a time finds the pool most inviting. Simply dipping in the pool between chores or sitting and relaxing by its side can drive away the blues altogether. Most pools  in vacation homes tend to be well maintained, making them ideal places to relax and enjoy the vacation wholeheartedly

· Aesthetic Appeal- The inclusion of a swimming pool is definitely to add to the aesthetic value of a property. The presence of a pool attracts a majority of customers, and they will grab the chance to rent it instantly. While the pool beautifies the property, it also provides a photo-op for the families or guests that rent it. Beautiful photographs taken by the side of the pool or clicked when frolicking in the pool are shared via social media, making vacation rentals more popular than ever.

Children often make their parents frantic by demanding to be away for the holidays. Hotels in tourist spots are usually too expensive for most people with limited incomes. Weekly house rentals in Bonita Springs, Marco Island, Naples, Pelican Bay, and North Naples, FL, can be an excellent alternative for the entire family or individuals preferring to travel in groups. Choosing to stay for a week or more can be amazingly cost-effective, especially when the property includes a kitchen and other amenities required daily.
