It was a nice, peaceful area. They were great to work with and easy check in. We had a great time in the pool and playing pool. Got to see a couple of gator ls in the pond behind the property. Great for large groups.
We loved the quiet neighborhood with an old Florida feel—big oak trees and Spanish moss. The big kitchen worked well for our family gathering where we cooked most meals and we loved spending time by the pool, in the cabana, and down at the dock watching the gators.
What a great house to house our rehearsal dinner and after wedding brunch. Our adult children stayed with their families and enjoyed all the fun amenities that you provided. Thanks sharing your beautiful home with us.
The place looked exactly as the website showed/described. We were 7 family members in town for a wedding. We spent fun hours in the pool and evenings around the fire pit. Spent a day at Busch Gardens which is close by. I would definitely come back! Our host was wonderful - very accommodating and with quick response times.
Che k in process was great. Ari was so kind and responsive. We got to the property and was just amazed with everything. The place was super nice and clean. So much space. Beds comfortable and just the whole vibe was on point. Definitely going to check this place out next time.
We met in Tampa from family coming from Jacksonville and south Florida for thanksgiving. The house had plenty to do and plenty of room for everyone. Very quick response from property owner.
Enjoyed our stay in this large, beautiful place. The owners were very accommodating and very quick to respond. We were three generations while in town for a family wedding and had plenty of space, bedrooms and bathrooms for us all. Actually there are more bathrooms than are listed so it’s even better than in the description. The pool and hot tub were always well heated. I highly recommend it.
We had 2 large family groups stay together for spring break. We loved the property. There was plenty of room. A huge kitchen. Quality outdoor space with nice chairs and loungers and a beautiful pool. We really enjoyed the dock and channel. We saw lots of alligators and birds.
We enjoyed our stay, Size of house was very roomy for party of 9. Pool was refreshing, ample parking. Kitchen was great size for the food we cooked and served. The BBQ does need an upgrade, difficult making burgers, hotdogs and chicken. Disappointed we could not use the dock in the back yard. Location was great, peaceful and very friendly neighbors. Overall had a very nice time and highly recommend it.
The house was fantastic! Exactly as advertised. Lots of great amenities. Pool and hot tub were clean and in great shape. The host, Ari, was responsive and great to work with. He even reached out to offer a late check out since he didn’t have new guests coming in on the day we were leaving. Top notch service and house!
What a great place for our group to stay. we were able to use the majority of the amenities, but no pool due to weather. The nice outdoor setting was wonderful to enjoy, while just sitting in one of the comfy chairs! The hot tub was great for relaxing after a long day.
the rooms were very warm and inviting, with lots of natural light and décor.
we really felt like we were at home here. The size of the kitchen is something to be envious of! Lots of cooking space, space to place food out for your group to grab and sit, and plenty of amenities like cups, silverware, etc. we would for sure stay here again!
The house was beautiful.The property was beautiful. The owners were very accommodating to our situation. All of my mother's children got to get together for one last time. To honor my mother after her passing, we thank the.Owners very much. Any problems we had, we didn't they were amazing. I recommend this place to stay at all times if you want to have a good time. You wanna be with family?This is the place to stay.Thank you Ari, for everything.
The manager was very responsive to our concerns: microwave broke and they brought one immediately, the heat didn’t work on the pool all week, they came to fix it but nothing changed, the ping pong table was broken and had no net, the pool table wobbled on broken legs and all the cue sticks were broken, the dartboard had no darts.
It was a good base for us to head out and do things every day. The house itself needed upkeep.
We enjoyed our stay in spite of all this.
This was the perfect location for our family to just relax and spend time together making memories. Communication with the owner was especially fantastic.
We really enjoyed our stay at this property. The pool and Jacuzzi were very well maintained and a lot of fun, would highly recommend it for folks traveling in a big group.
Loved the property, such a pretty yard and great pool. Bathrooms very nice bedrooms amazing space and the beds were super comfortable. Thank you for the stay
We had a great time and enjoyed all of the amenities from pool to darts, our family used it all. Great kitchen space for our Thanksgiving dinner that we prepared too.
