The house was perfect for our family's needs and the proximity to Bayshore Blvd, downtown Tampa and the airport was great. We loved the small touches and the artwork in the house.

Medical School Graduation Celebration

Our family of six stayed very comfortably, to celebrate my daughter’s graduation from USF medical school. The cottage and the neighborhood are both very peaceful and the location is fantastic! Close to downtown, the highways are not far, and the bay is a few houses away! The house had everything we needed and was very clean.

Great stay for location

If you want to be in Bayshore Beautiful, this is a great property. It was clean and comfortable and only a few minutes walking to the water! The photos portray a house that is slightly newer and in better condition than the house in reality, but it did not impact our stay significantly. Thank you!

Comfortable lodgings for a very sad trip

We were in town for my father’s funeral. We really liked the comfortable setting and being able to bring our dog and walk on the Bayshore was an added plus. My sister would like me to include that the large screen TV in the living room went kaput but otherwise it was nice to spend our time in a nice home.

Tampa Cottage

This was a cute cottage in a nice location. It was advertised as a 3 bedroom but is only a 2 bedroom with an extra sleeping area attached to laundry facilities. They have changed the listing to correct this information. Sugar ants were in the kitchen and got into our food but overall it was a cute corrage and comfortable.
