a beautiful paradise like stay

We loved staying at this beautiful tropical get away. The grovekeeper cottage was beautifully maintained. We had everything we needed. The landscaping felt like a secluded little paradise. The place was super clean. Check in and check out was super easy. The pool area was so beautiful and the pond with the little turtles and koi fish. It was such a relaxing few days. We will definately return. This was unlike any other vrbo we have stayed at. Just the best!

Visiting family in nearby Clearwater

Exactly as described by previous reviews and through the pictures. Our stay was singular in its experience from the moment we pulled into this oasis, with its relaxing sights and sounds as well as a cottage that was balance in its decor without clutter, yet with everything one would need when away from home. Lori and Gary are accomplished hosts, allowing privacy as well as generous information when needed. We are grateful for finding and having the privilege of staying at their peaceful haven.
