The house was perfect for our little family get away. We did have rain for a couple of days and weren’t able to enjoy the pool as much as we would have liked, but when we could- it was refreshing and so much fun. The house was fully equipped with games and puzzles, perfect for our rainy days.

Great family vacation home!

I would say that the home was very family friendly. It had a great pool, ping pong table, and fun games. I think the property manager was also very friendly and helpful. We did notice some minor areas of improvement involving the cleanliness of some areas. Dishes were somewhat dusty in the downstairs kitchenette, certain parts of the house didn't seem thoroughly cleaned, and we didn't have a working pool fan, the door downstairs was difficult to open, and there was no extra toilet paper for a week of staying. However, the property manager did help fix the fan! Despite the minor areas of improvement we would definitely recommend this property again! Great views! Centrally located for the beaches we wanted to hit! And very responsive property managers! The hosts also worked with us on the front end and answered our questions in detail!

Great fishing

Fabulous house with everything that was mentioned in the posting, plus more. Every time we needed something for cooking, it was there! Even a meat thermometer for the thanksgiving meal!! It was so nice to have the small necessities provided: toilet paper, paper towels, tissues, soaps, coffee, beach towels and beach chairs! The fishing was a week we won’t forget. We caught (and released) a blue crab, a Seahorse, a baby Seahorse, a stingray, and numerous others. Thank you for providing electric games, ping pong, storybooks and lots of board games. The only suggestions for improvement that we could make would be to label more of the light switches and please provide instructions on how to operate the TVs. Among the 12 of us, we couldn’t find more than two channels. Thank you for providing the place to make our family memories!

Perfect Location for Family Vacation!

My family rented this property for a week long relaxing getaway. There was plenty of space for the 4 adults and 2 children (1 and 3). It is very well stocked for kids with plenty of books and games that kept us entertained all week long! We also were glad to have access to a high chair, step stools, a pack n play, stroller, and other items that we were not able to travel with. The heated pool was our favorite part! We all spent time in it every day and enjoyed the floats. There is a shelf that was perfect for our youngest to play on. We had a couple of questions/minor issues while we were there and Jennifer was very quick to respond and resolve. The kitchen is large and has all the dishes/appliances needed - we we cooked many meals there over the week. We will definitely consider this location again for another vacation!

Big bright beautiful house with lots of space

The house sits on a nice little cul-de-sac that is on a canal with a boat dock and a pool that are both perfect for being outdoors. We loved the house, there was plenty of space for all of us to gather for meals or playing cards, and the rooms and bathrooms were perfect for sharing. We had 9 people - 5 adults and 4 teenagers - and the teens spread out in the basement area which has its own AC, TV, bathroom, kitchen and a ping pong table. The kids loved their own space away from the adults, and they had the sliding doors to the pool. The pool was the perfect size for floating and just leisurely swimming. The additional downstairs kitchen was wonderful for the fridge and freezer space and to stock with the kids snacks. We brought our boat and jet ski - BUT THE TIDE CHANGES SO MUCH in the bay and in this canal that in the afternoons and evenings, they were both sitting near dry on the oyster beds. After a few days we took the jet ski out and moved the boat further out on the end of the dock. So be warned about that. We had an afternoon storm that blew out some power but Jennifer and Gus were right on it and fixed everything within a few hours. You will REALLY enjoy this house! The beds are comfy, the showers are big, the kitchen has the BEST view of any location we have stayed. Great proximity to dining, and only 25+ minutes from Tarpon Springs and other fun places. This makes for a wonderful large family or friends gathering spot! Highly recommend this house!

Perfect Florida home

Let me first start by saying that we stay in vacation homes fairly often and this one is probably my favorite so far! It had everything you could hope to have! I found it hard some days to go and venture out because the house had so much to offer. It was very well stocked with dishes, kitchen gadgets, towels, blankets, etc. and entertainment for every age group. We had my in-laws come and stay for a couple of days and they loved it just as much as the rest of us! The house was very spacious and we were all very comfortable our entire stay. Jennifer was amazing to work with and the house was very clean upon arrival. If I could rate it 10 I would.

Family Friendly Home

We stayed at this home with another family. There was plenty of room to spread out and feel like each family had their own spaces. The home was very clean and well stocked with everything we needed. It was the cleanest rental home we’ve ever stayed at. The house had plenty of supplies, toys, activities, etc to keep everyone entertained. You only need to bring food and clothing. The turf grass was amazing, the pool was clean and warm, we caught fish off the dock, and saw dolphins. Would absolutely recommend this home!
