The host was wonderful and responded well. The place was clean and stocked much better than many VRBOs i have used in the past! Adorable house with dock right out back and close to everything!
I hate to say how wonderful this place is because everyone will want to stay at this gem of a place. It is beautiful on the bayou and with a dock to watch sea life. It is well appointed with most everything you need. The owners are thoughtful and quick to reply to anything you might need. We rate it A plus plus.
Perfect spot for enjoying Tarpon Springs, beautiful property on the water with all the amenities.

Our stay was awesome. Very clean and comfortable. Close to Downtown Tarpon Springs with an awesome park near to walk our dog. This was our first time using a Verbo home and will definitely use Verbo again.
We enjoyed our stay at this property. Nice, neat, spacious açcomodations with great outside areas to relax and enjoy. Also a great location to walk or drive to all that is Tarpon Springs.
This is an amazing property situated on the beautiful bayou. We loved everything about our stay and I was lucky enough to see a manatee from the dock. Excellent communication. I’d love to return and thoroughly recommend this property.
This was a perfect home for us to stay for a week while visiting family. Clean, quiet, comfortable, with a lovely back deck and dock on the water. Amenities were easily accessible and communication with the host was easy and efficient. Would definitely recommend.

Great place!
The unit was very clean and everything we needed was there. It was also a perfect location. The new dock was great for sitting and relaxing.
Very clean, completely equipped and convenient location. Very nice outside area and dock for relaxing. Appliances all excellent and everything you will need is in the kitchen.
We spent 4 days here. Loved having morning coffee on the dock! The nearby park around the lake was a lovely walk. We were able to walk to dinner at Rusty Bellies, a wonderful restaurant with water views. The beach is just a short drive away and the pastries downtown are not to be missed!
Enjoyed our stay. Loved the dock while enjoying our coffee. The back deck is also a beautiful place to enjoy that evening glass of wine. We will go back.
Rented this unit for a weekend stay with my sister and brother in law. The place was very nice, clean, decorated beautifully but the greatest thing was the outdoor space. Very relaxing and right on the canal. Would love to stay again.

Modern, clean and a great getaway home for a vacation
It was a wonderful experience staying at this modern and well maintained home. The main living area is well laid out with a beautiful view of the bay. We thoroughly enjoyed our vacation, the outdoor area, especially the deck with access to the bay was great for paddle boarding. The house had everything we could have needed. It was very close to the dock/greek area as well as downtown. The owner was very responsive and I would highly recommend staying here.
The place is nicely decorated and well stocked. Furniture and appliances were exactly what we needed and the new dock over the water was a great place to relax. One of the best places my wife and I have enjoyed.
