We have stayed in several VRBO homes and this stay would be in our top 5! The house is clean, stocked with everything you need and your hosts are outstanding. They are really concerned with how your stay is going. I would absolutely stay with them again. We had our dog and she loved the fenced back yard. Key Vista, Anderson and Howard Parks are nearby and are super places to give your dog a walk. Also, give Neptune Cycle a try. Rent an e-bike and spend a day on the Pinellas Trail!
Our first time winter getaway. Our stay for a month exceeded our expectations. We had everything we needed . Enjoyed fenced in yard, the grill and kitchen had what we needed? Quiet neighborhood. We loved being so close to Tarpon Springs , Dunedin, Port Richey. Easy to get around. Pet friendly. Hosts were great!
We are a retired couple with our 30-something daughter and her husband, in town for a wedding. The house was just what we needed. It’s not much to look at on the outside but the inside was very nicely decorated. The listing was very accurate and we had everything we needed for our stay. It was perfectly clean and comfortable.
Fran Curry was very sweet and responsive to every need. Took care of requests immediately.

About the host
Hosted by Curry Hayes
Curry and Fran Hayes have been VRBO hosts since 2014, with their first listing a four bedroom home in Tarpon Springs, listing # 685148. That home was such a success and they received many requests from couples and smaller groups who didn't need that much house! So they decided to repeat everything they had done at the larger house to give couples and small families a more economical option while still providing a charming and tastefully decorated newly renovated home within 5 minutes of their larger rental house. Fran loves personally managing these homes and makes it a point to meet and greet guests personally and is always quickly responsive to inquiries and questions. As of July 2017 they have just opened their third and fourth homes in the same area, listing # 1122450 and 959787!
Why they chose this property
Just remodeled, new furnishings, appliances, ranch style with no steps or stairs anwhere on the property, minutes from the beach, nature trails, bike trails, and less than an hour from Tampa and all its attractions
What makes this property unique
This house is great for snowbirds, as it is entirely one level with no steps or stairs at all on the property. It is very close to downtown Tarpon with all it has to offer, plus three beautiful beaches, but is much more economical because it's just above the county line in Holiday FL.
