Excellent Home and Location!

Our stay was amazing! The house was extremely comfortable, renovated, and the private yard was extraordinary. There was plenty of space for our family of four and the location being so close to the airport and downtown Tampa was great. Highly recommend and will certainly stay here again when returning to the Tampa area!

Great house for an adult family!

The house was absolutely perfect. We were in town for a funeral and had all of our kids stay with us. There was plenty of room for everyone but also had a great outdoor area for all of us to relax. The house was nicely stocked and we didn’t need to bring anything with us. We would definitely stay here again!

Relaxing retreat

The property was extremely clean and well appointed with everything we needed and more for our stay. With generous supplies of thinks like k-cups and shampoos etc. The setting is incredibly peaceful, we enjoyed lots of fishing from the doc. We dreamed it too cold to test out the kayaks but it was February! There are plenty of stores within a short drive including Starbucks and Publix. We had a great stay and would definitely stay again.

The perfect birthday weekend

We planned a short family getaway to take in a ball game and get some much needed sun and warmth. First of all, Mother Nature cooperated, which gave us plenty of time to enjoy the pool and patio at this excellently located home. It was perfect for us! Each couple had their own room, the home was well appointed with a comfortable great room and the pool was the best, especially the shallow level. Our granddaughter loved her first experience of swimming and we had such a relaxing time. Plenty of towels, dishes, laundry products and even shower amenities and lotions. We enjoyed taking the kayaks out , grilling on the patio and hanging by the pool, and we were close to everything we needed. Highly recommend!

Above and beyond

This stay was lovely. It's a beautiful house. We loved how several doors led outside and helped create a common area. Thanksgiving night we had a fire, several in the pool, cooking. Also, the house was better stocked than any house we have rented. The bug spray literally saved our Thanksgiving. There were so many towels, cooking pans, lotion, shampoo..etc.would absolutely stay again.thank you!

This is an awesome location if you want to be close to Tampa attractions. It's a short drive to Busch Gardens, the aquarium, beaches and downtown Tampa. So much fun kayaking and paddle boarding on the waterways. The pool was nice to lounge in after a busy day!

Just what we needed

Very clean and fully stocked as previous reviews have stated. We picked this house for an extended stay in the heart of the Tampa Bay area to visit family and friends while enjoying some much needed downtime. The pool and backyard area were perfect. Melinda is a fantastic host as well.
