Great place

This house and location was perfect for our family. The two separate living areas was great for the adults to be upstairs and the kids downstairs. Plenty of beds and space for everyone and there were lots of beach toys/accessories! Anything you'd need! Josiah, the owner, was very responsive to my communications and was extremely helpful. We appreciate all of his help in the craziness of our stay.

Family Vacation

Myself, my husband, our 18 year old son and 15 year old son stayed a week at the house. It was perfect! The pool was wonderful, the dock was great to fish from and enjoyable to just watch the wildlife from. It’s a very easy walk to the beach from the house. I highly recommend this property, especially for families with older kids. There is plenty of space for everyone. The home owner was very accommodating.

BEST FAMILY WEEKEND GETAWAY!

Our host was so helpful and informative from start to finish. The house was clean, open, and had everything you could possibly think of to accommodate every last detail of what you could need or want. This property was gorgeous! Great neighbors who informed us of local events and were so friendly. The pictures don't do this house justice, its BEAUTIFUL inside and out! My family and I were just looking for a weekend away to spend time together, this far exceeded any expectations I had. I would highly recommend this property and host. You will not be disappointed in anyway. We will be back, thank you so much for all of your hospitality!

Wonderful!

Short walk to the beach on quiet street in Indian Rocks. Clearwater is a 20 min drive away and we enjoyed escaping to our quiet neighborhood in the evenings. The house has EVERYTHING you can even think that you need. 2 families spent the week here with 7 people total. Owner is super responsive to messages. Great place to stay! Can’t recommend enough. We were a bit nervous when we first got there because it is not evident how close the beach is- but it’s SO close and an easy less than 10 min walk.

Beautiful house

Beautiful house with lots of amenities! We loved the decor and everything you could need was there (blender, hot water kettle, kitchen utensils, etc) and since we had a longer stay Anna was so helpful and got us a real crib. The pool is beautiful and the outside area (minus the grass it isn’t full and green like the neighbors). It’s a 5-7 min walk to the beach (no public restroom just a beach access) and we rented a beach jogging stroller from my little suitcase. We did have some trouble with the no see um bugs bitting terrible outside which was a bummer since we wanted to eat outdoors and enjoy the evenings outside (bug spray is provided but you have spray a lot for it to work). The sunsets/sunrises are gorgeous and it’s a beautiful less commercial area than Clearwater or St a Pete Beach. We definitely enjoyed our stay and would recommend :)

Overall great week

After being disappointed that fireplace didn’t work on the cold nights, we had a good week. Never did figure out the thermostat and ceiling fans would be a great addition to all bedrooms as it was hot and uncomfortable sleeping. Pool was great. Having boat docked was perfect. One of the kayaks didn’t have a fin so made it hard to steer. Would recommend more forks and a new blender as it is cracked. Missing on arrival were dish towels but they dropped them off for us. But no dish liquid so used up our own. Overpriced for the holiday week.

This beach house was everything we hoped for and more! Immaculately clean, beautifully kept, and just steps from the shoreline and it gave us the best of both worlds: easy beach access and peaceful mornings on the dock with a cup of tea in hand. Watching the sun rise over the water from the dock was absolutely perfect. Will book again. Thank you.

Great location/not well maintained

Pros - The location is excellent. It was within a few blocks of the beach and several restaurants. The bedrooms were set up perfect for 6 girlfriends so that btw 2 of us we had a separate bedroom and bath. There was a nice outdoor table under the deck and in the shade with chairs where we hung out a lot. Beach towels were provided. The boat dock was a cool addition . My son was able to pull his boat up and pick us up for a boat ride. Please note that the dock is difficult to access during low tide. The corn hole and pool floaties were fun additions.Cons - The house does not appear to be well maintained/clean. Examples: The upstairs outdoor furniture webbing was cracked and unusable. The cushions on the furniture around the pool were faded and well worn. The deck around the pool had grass growing btw the bricks. The pool was full of old leaves sunk to the bottom. The trash drawer area was covered with food droppings. The dishwasher was full of food. The master bedroom sink would not drain. The towels had a terrible smell and the bathrobes were dirty. One of the bath towels was full of holes. The pool area had a bunch of old, used floaties laying on the side yard. The check in code did not work and the contact was initially unresponsive. Fortunately, the backdoor was open, and we were able to get access. The manager did respond on day 1 and sent a maintenance guy that accommodated our schedule.

4 3/4 stars out of 5

We had a wonderful stay. I would have given this a 5 stars but the kitchen really isn’t set up for much cooking. There were only enough forks for one meal then you had to wash them. Although a hurricane just went through here and they may not of had time to restock everything in the kitchen so it only 4 3/4 stars Loved the mother in law quarters in the basement. Gave us privacy from the rest of the house and we didn’t disturb anyone by getting up early.All in all 4 3/4 starsLocation is outstanding just a 5 minute stroll to the beach. There are a few bars/ restaurants within walking distance. The ones we went to were great. The beach and area around it were clean and neat. The house is located on a dead end street so not much traffic or noise. The pool area and pool were fantastic. They have some out door things like kayaks and bags which were fun to play and use. The grill was excellent and clean.Great house for families and friends.

Had all we need and more

This house is awesome for any group of people. We had our 5 adult kids and us. Plenty of rooms and basement space to crash on sofas. Plenty of TVs, video games, board games etc. The pool is awesome and the covered area by the pool is ideal for beating the heat and cooking out. We fished everyday from the dock, caught some good ones. Saw manatees swim right up to the dock. The beach and a variety of restaurants are really in easy walking distance. No need to worry about driving and parking. Great house overall. I will go back again.
