5/5 Stars – A Perfect Home Away From Home!

We chose this property for its convenient location near Moffitt Ruskin, but we’ll be returning for so much more—the beautiful accommodations and the incredibly kind, accommodating hosts. The home’s layout was ideal, with spacious rooms that allowed me to move comfortably using my walker after surgery. The beds were wonderfully cozy, ensuring restful nights, and the neighborhood was peaceful and friendly, making us feel safe and right at home. This was more than just a rental—it was a welcoming retreat during a challenging time. We highly recommend staying here and look forward to returning!

Just what we needed

The house was quiet, super clean and comfortable. It has everything needed for a relaxing stay. The back yard needs a little work because there is no actual grass but all in all the house is amazing. I would definitely stay again.

Perfect for my picky Mom!

I brought my Mom to a music festival in the area. She is very picky about cleanliness and, well….everything lol! She absolutely loved staying in this house! It was perfect for our needs! The host made communication easy and the check-in process couldn’t be easier for two older ladies. We will definitely stay here again if we get back down that way!

Fantastic home

We were looking for a place to stay close to family in the area. This home was a wonderful choice. The property was very clean, Arianne was extremely responsive and easy to deal with, she quickly addressed all questions/concerns we had prior to our stay. Overall it was a great choice for our visit, and we hope to stay there again next year!

Beautiful place to stay!

My family had a wonderful time at this property for two weeks. Our host was very thoughtful in trying to meet our needs for our stay by leaving games for our kids, and even leaving food and toys for our cat! Owner is quick and responsive as well. The home itself is beautiful as well and very comfortably set up for everyone. Highly recommended.

our stay in Ruskin FL

Updated 3-2 home in Ruskin FL. Plenty of amenities. Not too bad to get to from Interstate 75. Quite a bit of construction going on in the area. All of the home functions worked well and we had no problems. We would stay there again if we are in that area.
