Very cute place. The 2nd bedroom, space was more of a mother in law's apartment. Which was nice. But totally separate from the house. Everything went great.
We loved our stay! Great house with lots of charm. The pool is a plus. Brought our boat with us and docked behind the house. Ran out to Anclote Key & sand bar and did some fishing. We will definitely make a trip back. Terrance was a great host!
The place was so cute and the owner responded in a reasonable amount of time to any questions I had. It is in a great location as well, anything you wanted was fairly close by.
This was our second time staying at this home. We love it because it’s so convenient to everything we need and want to do. We really enjoy the beachy feel and the 2nd story deck. We love the pool and hot tub. Everything in the home was nice and if we had a question or concern the property owner was pretty quick to get back to us, plus he also communicated to us if there was anything going to be happening on the property while we were there. We will definitely stay again!
This is the most adorable rental! Very artful and colorful coastal vibe! Owner was super accommodating to all our requests of extra TP & additional linens for extra guests and helped with our boat. Scalloping trip with 3 couples who all enjoyed our stay and discussed future re- booking at this property. Highly recommend - would give 10 stars if possible! Thank You so very much for your hospitality!!
This is the second time we have stayed at this property, we love the location. The host respond quickly and made us feel welcome.

House was ADORABLE! Only way to access the second bedroom is by a key no access thru main house. Adults staying in the room is fine but putting kids in that room? I wouldn't find it a great idea.Air conditioning failed the last few days we were there. We actually left a day early because house temperature went too hot for us to be comfortable sleeping. Contacted host but taking thermostat off wall and playing with it is not a solution to fixing a broken thermostat. If the situation had been amended my review would have been better.

Noel, we appreciate guest feedback, but the portrayal of this situation does not accurately reflect the urgency or professional service provided.
On Sept. 17 at 8:30 a.m., you reported the A/C was not cooling and stated you were leaving for the beach until the afternoon. We responded within 9 minutes. By 9:19 a.m., only 49 minutes after your initial message, we had arranged an HVAC technician for a 10 a.m.-noon window and advised you that we could remotely provide access so your plans would not be interrupted.
The technician arrived that morning, diagnosed a thermostat malfunction, reset it, and confirmed the HVAC system was operating properly. Before leaving, he reported the home had already cooled 7 degrees to 74°F. At 11:03 a.m., we sent you his reset instructions should the thermostat malfunction again. Those instructions were not a substitute for professional service; they were provided AFTER the technician had inspected and restored the system.
We received no further message that the A/C stopped working, that the home remained uncomfortable, or that you were leaving early. Had we been notified, we would have immediately sent the technician back. We first learned this through your review.
With 200 five-star reviews, we take guest concerns seriously. The system has since been checked and is operating properly. The documented timeline does not reflect an issue that was ignored or left without professional attention.
If you are in to pool time or boating this house is for you. House was clean and well set up. Host was friendly and anticipated our needs. We would stay here again.
Great house right on the canal. The pool and hot tub were very clean and our family used every day. We stayed an entire month and the location is so close to stores and shopping it helped us avoid Florida traffic. Terrance was very helpful and quick to respond when we had questions. I the setup is perfect for families with teens or maybe two families sharing a place.
Had everything we needed for our stay. Great views and located central to shopping,attractions, golf courses and everything else we participated in. Would stay there again. Thanks for a great vacation!
Great little place for small family. Convenient location. Pool and hot tub make it even better. Would recommend and definitely stay again.

About the host

Originally from Owensboro, KY, I made my way to FL over 10 years ago. I am local, which makes my property easy access if something were not to be to your liking. I look forward to sharing my hard work/remodel with you!
Why they chose this property
Literally Key West Low-Key living at its finest here in New Port Richey - close to a lot of attractions and beaches, but we've noticed, most people don't want to leave the house!
What makes this property unique
The original character of this house makes it one of a kind! Attention to detail, wood work, and a coastal feel rejuvenated this property beyond belief.
