Overall i would stay here again. Its not very suitable currently for little children as all of the kitchen drawers are off tracks and can easy fall out. The 2 bunk rooms twin beds are all in need of some new box springs or mattresses but again wasnt terrible. The positives: very close to downtown and craig park. Sponge docks are close too. The house has plenty of space and bedroom layout is good for 2 families with younger kids.The negatives: very loud all night with traffic since you are directly on main road.

Great, Affordable & Very Spacious

Had a great stay! Even with 10 people, we still had a lot of room. On kind of a busy corner, but was very quiet inside and so close to downtown. Well stocked and nice place, everyone was happy! Would definitely stay here again.

Lovely home

The home was perfect for our group. There were 4 bedrooms upstairs with two bathrooms and an additional bedroom and bathroom on the main floor. It was perfect for three adults and two teenagers to each have their own rooms. The layout was easy for us all to gather and spend time together over meals and coffee. The house was very comfortable in terms of temperature and space. Additionally, the host was very responsive and kind. We would consider renting again in the future.

Great Spongey Get Away!

We absolutely loved the home- ice maker didn't work, but no other complaints- went to the sponge dock- eat at the restaurant there- if you're looking for fresh fish, that's the place to go. Eat Greek food that was great too- did some shopping- sitting on front porch watching the passer by's- just an all out great time-even being on main street and busy traffic it was great.

Great house for the money

The house was big enough for the 9 of us. It is an older home and has some challenges, but the location is great. The cleaning crew was rushed because of the renters before us did not leave on time, but wasn't anything that would prevent you from having a pleasant stay. The price was more than fair for the size and location of the home.

We had a great time here! I'm a youth pastor who looks for places to keep students for a few days each summer, and this house did great to serve our needs. We had room to spread out comfortably. If you're looking for a place in town and close to everything, this is the place! I only had to communicate with the hosts a couple times, but they were professional and courteous, and quick to answer what I needed. If I was to give a tip to any future guests, I would say unless you're comfortable parking in the street next to the house, two cars is max for parking, and as someone who often uses enclosed trailers for luggage for trips, I'm glad I didn't need one this time. Overall, their consistent 4-5 star ratings speak for themselves!

Tarpon Springs

The property had one bedroom on the1st floor, descripition had 3 bedrooms on the first floor (we are aged seniors). The descripitions stated there was a firepit there was not, firepit was to allow us gents to smoke outside; as this is a non smoking property. Property amenities were over sold at best. It is a quaint little historial southern home that has been nicely upgrade; good place to sleep.

It could be great.......but

The house is quite charming and located in a great spot for getting to the beach (Honeymoon recommend) and attractions in Tarpon as a whole. However being located on 19 alt. Means road noise day and night. Simetimes quite incredible. We did experience roaches toward the end of the week but that is obviously correctable. Because if the major noise factor I cannot recommend this property.

Tarpon Springs 6-week stay

House totally redone, very good job. Location in Tarpon Springs is good, near downtown and docks, close to Pinellas Trail for biking, big plus for us. House was clean, above average, Good parking and safe place to store our bikes. Major negative is traffic noise from Pinellas Ave, 24/7, very noisy. House needs a bit of TLC, kitchen cabinet drawers, refrigerator, stove top need attention. Two smoke detectors are not functioning, management informed after 4th day, promised to replace but never happened.

Helpful reminders for management

Overall everything was very nice. Regarding items that management could improve... -There was nothing that I read in all of the instructions and details that contained the lock password (to get into the house). It was very stressful getting there and not being able to get in. Please highlight clearly somewhere/anywhere the lock code!! (If it was somewhere, please make it easier to find.) -The WiFi information listed in the description was not accurate/did not work. We had to search the house for a password, and even that we had to decipher. -A little cleaner. All in all everything was nice however one of the blankets smelled, the dishes and cupboards are do for a deep clean. Again however, everything else was nice, and we had a good time.

Pros:The location of the house is great. You can walk to restaurants, activities and the sponge docks. It also is large enough to sleep a lot of people. The sitting areas don’t accommodate many but for sleeping purposes you can fit a lot of people. The large beds were extremely comfortable and communication was great. We had to use both the AC and the heat and both worked very well. All TV’s had plenty of apps logged in and ready to use. One TV did not work which we communicated to the owner.Cons:The house wasn’t clean to the standards I’d expect at the price point you’re paying. There was sand in the refrigerator, ants in the kitchen and live roaches in the kitchen, bedrooms and bathrooms. I considered not worrying about the cleanliness until I had a roach on my toothbrush. The air vents were absolutely filthy, there was hair on the mirror ledge above the kitchen sink and the master shower head was so clogged we used a toothpick to open the holes for water to come out. The towels provided were small and hardly fit around your body. The dishes were dirty in the cupboards. The listing stated that shampoo and soap were provided but it was only provided in one of three bathrooms. The listing also stated hair dryers were provided but again, there was one in one of the three bathrooms. If you don’t want to play pass the soap and hair dryer, you’d need to bring your own. The listing stated outdoor chairs and beach chairs were provided. The porches had some c
