Nice but far from Tallahassee

We enjoyed the house just fine. It was just much farther from the college than I expected. The window a/c units made it difficult for me to sleep through the night. Felt like the neighbor's home was right on top of ours. Curtains on the porch may help.

Nice getaway

Property just as listing describes. Very clean. Peaceful property. Only downfall is the bright lights from the neighbors upstairs when trying to enjoy the porch at night. Definitely would stay again!

A sister getaway

The enclosed back sunroom was a wonderful great room to enjoy the lake view. The home had very comfortable furniture including the bed. Pictures do it justice. Not far from all the sights in Tallahassee. We would definitely be return customers.

Cozy bungalow

We stay in the Lake Talquin area frequently. This was our first time at this property. It was very clean and smelled nice and fresh. The bed was very soft. If you need a firm bed this is not the place for you. We arrived at at night. It was very dark and raining. There were no lights on and that made it difficult to see the driveway and determine where the entrance door was - not by the driveway. Once we made it inside we could tell it had just been remodeled. It is very nice but only had basic supplies. Considering we were only staying for a weekend it had everything we needed. The driveway is steep but paved so we didn’t have any issues.
