*The unit is monitored by a noise detection device called Minut. This device monitors how loud it gets in the unit, cigarette and marijuana smoke, and how many Bluetooth devices walk through the door.
This device is solely to prevent parties from occurring in the unit and ensure we respect the neighbors. This is not a recording device.
For more information about the device, see the minut website.

*POOL HEATING FEE Pool heat is available for an additional charge of $45 per night or $225 per week.

For stays longer than a week, we’re happy to discuss accommodations to best suit your needs. We appreciate your understanding.
Please note that from May through October, pool heat is generally not recommended, as the water naturally stays warm due to the weather. However, if you still wish to add pool heat, please let us know at least 48 hours in advance.
Our pool is heated by a heat pump, which relies on the outside air temperature to warm the water. While the system is effective, if the weather is particularly cold, it can take longer to reach the desired temperature. Sometimes, it may not get as warm as expected due to cooler outdoor conditions.
Because the heat pump's performance depends on the weather, we cannot offer refunds if the pool does not reach the exact temperature you prefer. However, we do everything possible to ensure the pool is heated to the best extent possible.

We stayed at the Dunedin salt shed due to our Dunedin home being renovated. It was the perfect location for us and if we ever have a need, we will stay there again or recommended it to family and friends who are coming in from out of town. It was extremely clean, which is really important to me. The pool was great and having a fenced in yard for the dog worked out very well for our family. Tara was incredibly easy to communicate with throughout our stay as well. I highly recommend!
Thank you so much for the 10/10 review! We’re thrilled you had such a great stay. It was a pleasure hosting you, and we’d love to welcome you back anytime!
Perfect place for us while visiting family in the area. Tara was great a great host. She allowed family to come visit and use the pool while we were in town. Everything was very clean and kitchen was well stocked. would definitely stay here again.

We had family in town for the summer and we wanted a place that could be the main hub for family dinners, game and pool fun. This house was a perfect match. It was clean, stocked, and had everything we needed to have a great time. The host was friendly and prompt to respond. As locals who book rentals about 4x a year we will definitely be adding this property to our list to book again.

Thank you so much for the lovely feedback! I’m so glad the house was the perfect hub for your family gatherings and fun. It means a lot to hear that you found everything you needed and enjoyed your time here. As frequent renters yourselves, your recommendation means the world to me! I’d be thrilled to welcome you back anytime.
First off I would like to start by saying that the house is in a great location. Our family came down to visit the beaches. We were close to Honeymoon & Clearwater. There were many great restaurants to choose from. The house itself has great curb appeal, great layout on the inside, and the pool area was perfect. A few recommendations would be honeymoon beach. Visit the dog beach there. It is a little bit of a hike but worth it once you get there. A few places to eat near here would be Madison’s Pizza, Salty Soul Island, & Delco (Dunedin). Good place for ice cream is CoolSide in Palm Harbor. Little Italy Pizza in Largo. Overall it was a great stay. We plan to revisit and hope others enjoy the property as much as we did!

We really enjoyed our time at the Dunedin Salt Shed. The house is very comfortable and had all the amenities we needed. The kitchen was very nice and had everything you would need to cook and eat in the kitchen and most important a nice Coffee maker with some nice coffee, tea, hot chocolate.
The pool was great after a day of running around. When weather came through we played ping pong which was alot of fun.
