Spring Break Getaway

We had a wonderful vacation-this home was perfect for our family of 4. It is close to everything…on the lake for the fishermen in the group, close to beaches & other attractions for the explorers. Plenty of restaurants to choose from-we enjoyed taking the boat over to the Tarpon Turtle for a couple of meals. The property owner was awesome to deal with…she was very quick to respond to any questions I had before traveling as well as giving recommendations since it was our first time visiting the area. The home was comfortable and well stocked, just as described. I would definitely recommend this property to anyone traveling to Lake Tarpon. We would also recommend Gulf Coast Expeditions…we went on a manatee snorkeling trip with them & had a blast!

nice stay

Well equip kitchen, beds sleep great, and bedrooms are nice. Very good communication. Only downside was my wife bumped her head on the metal pipe shelf next to kitchen table when getting up from table. Lots of extras in garage, fishing poles and tackle, kayaks and more. Look forward to renting again next year during the Valspar Golf Tourament.

Key West at Palm Harbor

Had a great time at this charming property. The house was fully equipped and very clean. It is located in a quiet neighborhood that is convenient to local attractions and shopping. The beaches at Clearwater and Dunedin are phenomenal. We especially liked hanging out in the yard along the canal. We hope to come back again. Bob and Carol

Tropical Character

The house was charming and has a tropical character. Very comfortable and perfect location for our needs. The Host was very attentive and seemed very conscientious and accommodating. Location on a canal that leads out to the lake was nice ambience and helpful for boaters. Loved the friendly local bar & grill “Snappers Grill”…great fish tacos and fish n chips! Overall, we couldn’t have chosen a better property for our week stay in sunny Palm Harbor.

Nice home away from home

The house was perfect for my husband and I. We were in Florida for a graduation and the two bedrooms allowed our granddaughter to spend a couple of nights. Conveniently located to so many beaches, parks, restaurants, etc. The owners were great. Communication was easy, quick and clear. The kitchen was well stocked with spices. Plenty of fishing poles in the garage and the screened porch was like being at home for morning coffee. I highly recommend this location.

Key West in Palm Harbour!

Beautiful Key West experience in Palm Harbour! When walking the area the people we met were very friendly and welcoming. The accommodations were just as in the pictures - as others have commented the coffee bar was a nice touch. Lots of fishing supplies for the fisherman at heart. The only thing my husband was a little concerned about was the ability for people who would like to kayak but are inexperienced in the getting in and out of a kayak as the kayak is much lower than the dock level. We would definitely stay there again!
