The views from this beautiful home are incredible! My husband and I stayed here for a weekend and we wish we would have stayed longer to fully enjoy the relaxing environment. The host, Tara, was communicative and responsive, and clearly takes great care of her property.

This place was perfect for our large family. It was clean and provided a great place for us to all hang out in a communal space. It felt isolated but was very close to 99 and stores. We are definitely hoping to stay again when we come up to visit family.

Perfect get away! The host was friendly and helpful. The house was even better than the pictures. Clean and comfortable. We totally enjoyed the pool, the view and the location. Very private. The kitchen had everything we needed. Would definitely recommend and rent again. Thank you Tara

Having used VRBO for a number of different vacation stays, we must say that this was the absolute best place ever!! Even though the weather did not cooperate for the holiday weekend, we enjoyed every moment of the stay. The cabin was clean and very modern. It was spacious and comfortable. The little snack basket was an added plus!We will definitely return to stay there again!

Our group was 2 families (4 adults and 4 teenagers) looking for a relaxing weekend, and Tara's property delivered! Ample seating for our whole paety to watch TV and eat together. Kitchen was fully stocked with all the miscellaneous appliances that you want but don't want to pack (griddle and blender come to mind) but there were several local dining options if you didn't want to cook. Light switches were labeled, and all instructions were clear. Tara answered all of my questions quickly. The weather kept us from enjoying the few, but hopefully we'll see it next time because we will be back!

This beautiful home was the perfect relaxing getaway for my Mom and I. I was looking for a place with a pool where we could relax together. The pool was wonderful and the house and views were even better than I imagined. Stunning views and peaceful surroundings. I kept thinking how much my grown children would enjoy this place and would love to bring them back at some point.
