GONE FISHIN'
Built in 1956 and originally owned by the Smallwood Family, Parkway Village was Chokoloskee's first fishing camp with direct access to gulf channels, and mangrove islands just a few hundred meters away.
NATIVE FAMILY
Parkway Motel & Marina is owned and operated by a Chokoloskee Island native, Aaron Tabor, with partner David Ardelean. Aaron grew up boating/fishing these waters and playing on the island before Moving to the City and working as a Plumber.
During the Pandemic 2020 Shut Down Aaron Brought David Down to his Hometown, where Fishing, Boating and the Great Outdoors seemed like the best Remedy for the Shelter in Place Lockdown. Plus, David's Life Long Love for the Natural World and the Beautiful Biodiversity of the Coastal Everglades Estuary seemed like a Natural Fit for the Post Pandemic Chapter.
The family has been in Chokoloskee for Decades and are proud to share their hospitality, extensive knowledge and experiences with you.
