Our favorite cozy, home away from home
If you are looking for a peaceful stay at a cozy, clean full home, this is our favorite. It has a wonderful yard for our little old dog, and the pool was just perfect. We visit family who live nearby, so we will be back. The owners make you feel very welcome and relaxed!

LOVED IT!
My husband, myself & our 2 dogs stayed at this great property for 4 nites early Jan, to attend a dog show in Brooksville (an easy commute < than 30mins). House had everything we needed. Perfect large fenced in side yard (one small spot under fence had been dug up a bit with possibility of dogs getting under & in to neighbors yard, we kept our dogs distracted, there was plenty of other spaces to snoop & run around!), we wouldn't leave our dogs alone in any yard but our own. A notebook with house rules & info as well as places to shop, restaurants, beaches etc. was great to reference. The walkable town of Inverness adorable with shops, restaurants & even a movie theater. You will need a car to see everything outside of the VRBO's neighborhood, which felt safe & was very navigable by car. Most of our down time (the dog shows took up the mornings), was spent at the house. There is a nice screened in lanai with a pool (yes it was open, but our weather not warm enough to get in), there's a nice eating table & chairs as well as 2 loungers to chillax. Kitchen perfect, we cooked dinners at home every night & had lunch out a couple of days. We used the washer dryer which worked just fine, dryer seemed to take a bit longer than expected but it worked out ok. We only used the 1 bedroom off the kitchen. There was plenty of room to fit the dog crates, the mattress was super comfortable, en-suite bathroom convenient We felt like we were home, will definitely be back next yr! Thank you!!

I had never rented a house before liked a lot more than Hotel. House was 30 min to water and 40 min to the villages. Relaxing on back patio and cooling off in pool. If you have a dog there is a large side yard which is fenced in. Lots of cardinal birds visit you through out the day. In my life time I have never seen a cardinal that often.

This felt like home immediately! Our dog acted like she was there her whole life lol. The amazing landscaping and salt water pool gave us a lush resort experience, while the indoor amenities were everything you could want or need. We are most definitely coming back!!!

We enjoyed our stay very much, the house was super clean and had everything we needed to function in a home-like environment, enjoyed the pool and relaxing atmosphere and the beautiful yard was an extra nice surprise. It was also minutes from our family in Floral City and close to grocery stores and restaurants. We hope to come back!

Wonderful!
We truly enjoyed our stay at this wonderful rental! Lovely, clean home and property with everything you could possibly need for a carefree and very comfortable stay. The heated pool was so relaxing and the dogs loved playing in the fenced yard. We had the opportunity to phone interact with the owners and they were delightful - as was the very kind caretaker who lives nearby. This will be our home-away-from-home whenever we visit our son and family in the Inverness area. Thank you for the great experience, Tony and Lisa! Tim and Karla

House was very clean and cozy in a quiet area. Very nice having the property manager across the street. Tony was super nice and told us about a rocket launch so we got to experience that too. Weather wasn't on our side and it was too cold to swim but the pool looked so inviting! Would definitely recommend and stay here again! Thank you.
