CAPE CORAL, Fla. – You may have seen it, just sitting idle and floating in the middle of the Caloosahatchee River near Tarpon Point Marina.

Even cold ice cream and every nautical knick-knack you can think of. The house was originally used as movie prop in “Thunder in Paradise,” shot in St. Petersburg, Florida. Owner’s Art Smith and Neale Sturgeon, towed it to where the house sits today anchored out in the river, serving anglers or anyone who stops by. Jasper’s Bait shop is located on the Caloosahatchee River closest to marker 96 to the Southwest of Tarpon Point Marina. To order your bait in advance call 239-699-3469.
