Great stay

First time I have used a Vrbo location, and it was great. From booking the residence to checking out was a great experience. Tv was difficult to manage, but we didn’t stay indoors long. Thank you again.

Needed somewhere to stay for a baby shower happening down the road.

The property is clean, and supplied nice starters, like coffee pods, creamers, water bottles to get you started. The driveway next to the house was nice to get out of the street. Communication with property owner was easy. The bed was comfortable, and plenty of linens. Some of the neighbors looked a little shady, but was quiet and no problems.

What a charming little oasis close to great shops and restaurants. The house was immaculate, communication with the host was fantastic and we just couldn’t say enough positive things about this experience. We felt very safe walking the area and truly enjoyed the neighborhood feel.

We were in Lakeland for a conference it was so great to stay so close to FSC where the conference was being held. Also walking to restaurants like The Patio and Reececlifs is so convenient.

Nice place

Nice little house in lovely, walkable neighborhood. The house combines good elements of chic city design with some historic features. Very scaled back and no clutter exactly as shown. We would stay there again.

Amazing access to amenities

Lovely historic neighborhood with so much within a few blocks walking distance - a bakery, a breakfast shack, a coffee shop, a kombucha tap room, and a nice brewpub restaurant in a historic home. Also Lake Hollingsworth 3 mile paved path just a few blocks downhill. You don't have to get in your car for days if you don't want to!

Easter Weekend at Florida Southern

We wanted to spend Easter with my girls - one in Lakeland, the other just 45 minutes away in Tampa. The house was adorable. Clean and comfortable with great beds and plenty of fresh towels in the remodeled bathroom. I like a new modern look and this home hit all the modern buttons! Will stay again ! Host was very accommodating !

Wonderful Trip!

We had a lovely time staying at the blue house! It’s decorated so cute and we were very comfortable in the home. We enjoyed walks in the beautiful neighborhood and checked out the many lakes in the surrounding the area. Brannen was a pleasure to work with and was quick to respond to all of our needs and requests. We appreciated Brannen so much!!
