The host provided timely assistance for us when GoogleMaps malfunctioned and we had trouble finding the property. Appreciate their swift reply for any questions we had. The property itself is cozy and quiet, and very scenic. We also appreciated that it is a child frendly home and that they had many books and little toys that our 2 year old enjoyed. Would stay again.

Sweet place right on the lake

Nice place for a family get together

Beautiful location, quiet neighborhood, nice dining room area and double living room with lakefront views, comfortable beds, very easy check-in, easy communication with Brad and Christina by text, but cleanliness a bit of an issue.

Lake front oasis

We stayed for a Friday through Monday at this beautiful house and it was perfect. The kids played on the swing in the front yard and we enjoyed the view and roaming peacocks! A very relaxing weekend away.

Hurricane Milton followed us to this nice cottage.

We evacuated here from Tampa Bay during Hurricane Milton….. Our hosts were gracious and caring, and we appreciated their hospitality during the hurricane. While we mostly sheltered from the storm, the area seems very congenial and we plan on returning at a later date.

Beautiful and Relaxing

We enjoyed our stay at this lovely home surrounded by nature's beauty! The home is so warm and comfortable and having the piano to play provided additional entertainment and laughter. This is a wonderful place for relaxing and making memories. The owners could not have done a better job of making us feel at home. Thank you so much!

There was no access to a boat dock on the property. Grill was not operational. The hot tub was not operational and it was dirty. The house could use a good scrubbing and updated furniture. The location was charming. We adored the peacocks!

Old Florida Charm

Overall stay was great. If you love the charm of an older home this is your place. The view in the front room, which has all the windows overlooking the lake, is magnificent. The hot tub is not in working order, and should not be included in the listing. Wifi was not reliable, maybe a spectrum issue? Be prepared to use a hotspot. We were not looking to be on the internet other than some required work. The owner was gracious to give us a later checkout and was responsive to our questions.

Great location. Could use some TLC

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Hosts were very responsive and helpful. Great guidance on local attractions. Quiet/Idyllic/beautiful location and neighborhood Wonderful for families with children, with many toys, games, and books. Overall needs some TLC: - Hot tub cover needs replacement as it has failed and tub wasn’t usable. Dirty with many leaves - Bar of hand soap or undiluted liquid soap would be welcome (liquid soap was diluted with 50% water and was quite thin) - MBR mattress is very elevated. We’re both in our late 60s and had difficulty. Our opinion is that If steps are required, it’s probably too high. - Check icemaker occasionally. When we arrived the spout was completely blocked with melted/refrozen ice. I was able to break up the ice and restore functionality. Appeared to be in this condition for a while as there was also a bag of purchased ice left in the freezer. -A Keurig would be nice as guests could bring or purchase pods. This would be more convenient and flexible than with the existing drip coffee maker. -Suggest adding contact paper to the kitchen drawers and cabinets as all were quite rusty. -sofa in living room has cracked and split upholstery. -Pre-stay guidance on parking would have been appreciated with address on different road than access. This was especially confusing on late night arrival with no clear driveway. -Keypad is faded and we had difficulty initially at night reading and using it. Keys need to be firmly pushed/held until each beeps.
