Thank you for you gracious comment and choosing this home for your stay in Tallahassee. Please reach out anytime you are in the Capitol city. I welcome you back anytime!
Convenient location that is tucked away from the hustle and bustle. It was a big game day in town, and it was great having this oasis to retreat to. Awesome backyard, and the pool is a great amenity. Very comfortable and cool home with all the conveniences. Host was gracious and detailed in communication. Very smooth stay from start to finish.

Thank you so much, John! I really appreciate your kind review and am so glad you enjoyed your stay in Tallahassee. It’s always nice to have a relaxing place to unwind when the city’s buzzing with activity. You’re welcome back anytime you’re in town. Thanks again, and wishing you a wonderful day!
We enjoyed our stay at the artsy cottage. The neighborhood was quiet with beautiful trees all around. The home was so accommodating and the beds were so comfortable. Great location to visit our kids at FSU. Would stay again.

Thank you for your stay and your wonderful review. I would enjoy hosting your group again.
We enjoyed our stay, the house had everything we could ask for. The kitchen was well stocked, the house was clean, the large, private yard was relaxing. We loved the little playground and treehouse, though the teens were a little old for playing. The pool was a great hit, we really enjoyed tge stay and all the comforts of your home. Thank you!

Thank you all for booking and staying in our home. I am happy to learn that you all found something to enjoy and spend time together right there! And thanks for mentioning the well stocked kitchen. I am staying at an Airbnb right now and the quality in the kitchen lacks greatly. It is very important part of a great stay. You all are welcome back anytime you are in Tallahassee. Thanks again.
This property was perfect for our short stay in Tallahassee. It was stocked with everything we needed to feel comfortable. The area has a family neighborhood vibe, we felt very safe staying here. Tracey, the host, was more than helpful. Highly recommend!

Quiet area, lovely home. Well stocked kitchen for cooking breakfast. Although the weather was rainy and we couldn’t enjoy it, the yard and pool area are well maintained and welcoming. We would definitely stay again.

Cozy house with massive outdoor options. Owner’s attention to detail is unmatched. Reminder labels everywhere (wireless, lights, BLE speaker activation, outdoor extras, etc.). Also provided charcoals, lighter fluid, and wood for fire pit. Highly recommended.

Thank you, so much for this wonderful review. I am happy to learn that you found everything easy to navigate with clear instructions. Thanks for stating this in the review. I am certain that these touches make a difference in deciding where to stay. You are welcome back any time you visiting the Capitol City.
We spent a delightful four nights at the Artsy Oasis and were sorry to leave. The house was charming, clean and comfortable with a tasteful decorative flair. The back yard was quiet and private with a lovely pool. The Indianhead neighborhood is green and quiet and extremely walkable. The house is ideally located close to the I-10, the center of Tallahassee, museums, the Botanical Gardens, hiking trails and the Historic Rails-Trails bike path. Our host Tracey was helpful and extremely responsive and we thank her for a memorable stay that we hope to repeat soon.

Thank you for your stay and the very nice review. I am always happy when guests enjoy their stay and take the time to review. Your family is welcome back anytime!
The property was easy to find and beautiful! The garden was huge and with a big pool, tree house, fire pit, BBQ and summer house! The house it self was cool and nicely decorated. The master bedroom had a huge bed and tv area. The kids shared a double with another room to play in. The kitchen was well equipped with clean modern equipment. Whilst we was there the gardeners came to keep the grass short. One thing I especially liked was little notes all around the house explaining how to use things and where to find stuff, extremely helpful!

About the host
Hosted by Tracey D
Hi there! Thank you for considering our home. It was previously an artists home and we left the artsy touches. We added furnishings with that artsy and eclectic feel top of mind. I am a professional realtor for over 25 years. I enjoy home renovation. This home is one of three properties my husband and I own and manage as short term rentals. We welcome your family and want you to feel safe, at ease and comfortable. We welcome your sincere feedback on ways we can enhance your stay and comfort. Thank you again for your interest. I am personally involved with all properties. You will be messaging directly with the owner/manager. Our family stays in each property several times a year. We know what each home needs and regularly make improvements to enhance guests stays. We want our guests to come back and share their great experiences with others!
Why they chose this property
We purchased another home in this historic Tallahassee neighborhood and we get a good amount interest from smaller parties. This one fits a smaller group that wants a comfortable place to spend time while visiting Florida's capital city and it's walking distance from the other property. This allows an even larger group of 16-18 people in both homes. You'll love this home! It is just as pictured but even better in person.
What makes this property unique
Entire house, plus a pool, outdoor shower, Zen cottage and a tree house. So much to do at a single house! Located in an Award winning Tallahassee neighborhood that is safe, quiet and in the heart of town. Plus nice parks for group gatherings, games and walking trails.
