We enjoyed staying at this charming craftsman house. It is very clean , with ample living and sitting areas. The bedrooms are clean and nicely decorated. For us the kitchen was the highlight, having comfortable seating, great pot and cooking pans, non teflon! The host has paid great attention to details, the spices, oil and enough of everything to put a quick meal together. The instructions were clear. We had a fabulous weekend at your property. Thank you Anthony and Christa.

About the host

Hosted by Anthony Newman

Host profile image
Hello,

I am a local entrepreneur owning several businesses right here in Lakeland. When I am not working, I love traveling with my family. For many years we have stayed at Airbnb properties, however, we never thought of hosting, until now.

My family and I have been an Airbnb guests for many years and always loved the experience. I decided to purchase a few properties in my hometown Lakeland so I can share our lovely town with others just as others have shared theirs with my family and I.

Give me a nice craft beer and good food and you will see me right at home. I love our city and what it has to offer. We have many great restaurants, live entertainment venues, outdoor activities all year long.

I love nice things and nice places to stay so I hope you love the little piece of Lakeland paradise that we put together for you. I am sure you will have an epic time.

Why they chose this property

Comfortable and close to downtown, colleges shopping.
3 minutes from Lake Hollingsworth, 7 minutes from downtown, 5 minutes from Florida Southern College and 8 minutes from Southeastern University.

What makes this property unique

1925 Historic charming home that we did an extensive remodel inside and out. This wonderful home has beautiful landscape, exterior landscape lighting, double oversized lot and much more. It is amazing to see the transformation of such a wonderful home to its new luster.
