About this property

Private lakefront retreat

Hi there! We’re Bryan and Amber — a husband-and-wife duo from Pittsburgh, PA, raising two amazing girls, Madden and Monroe. Amber is a talented hairdresser with an eye for style, and Bryan owns a home building company, so attention to detail and creating welcoming spaces is something we’re both passionate about.

Our love for water skiing and sunny getaways brought us to Winter Haven, where we found the perfect spot to make family memories — and now we’re thrilled to share it with you. We've designed this home to be equal parts relaxing and fun, with everything you need to feel at home while you’re away.

Whether you're here for adventure or just to unwind, we hope you love the space as much as we do. Welcome!

Host was communicative and accommodating. The property was immaculate and in a safe, quiet location, conveniently less than 10 minutes from AdventHealth Fieldhouse, where we were in town for my daughter’s volleyball tournament, with plenty of nearby dining options. My kids loved the furniture and blankets.

A Perfect Family Getaway

We had a wonderful stay at the lakefront retreat! The pictures honestly didn’t do it justice — it was even more beautiful in person. We spent so much time enjoying the backyard that we often didn’t want to go back inside. The view, both from the backyard and the family room, was absolutely breathtaking. It was the perfect setting for family time and relaxation. We truly wish we could’ve stayed longer and are already looking forward to coming back!
