We had a great time at Laura and Alan’s place! We enjoyed meeting with the guests in the other units, our walks along the Bayshore to Dunedin and the short drives into Clearwater Beach. Our little dog Penny loved it as well. It’s a convenient and beautiful location if you like to walk, bike or kayak too!

We stayed for a month as first time snowbirds. It wa s perfect for 2 of us and our Lab. It had all the amenities that you would need. Host was very accessible if you had questions. We saw lots of marine wildlife in canal behind us. The pinellas bike trail was right across road and we were able to bike up to Dunedin 2 miles away. Quiet and safe neighborhoods to walk.

Updated condo with old Florida charm. Take a ride north to Dunedin to Frenchy’s for dinner and stop at Knot on Main for a very cool antique experience. Short drive over to Clearwater Beaches. Go early as parking fills up fast. Only complaint is the bright lights from the neighboring facility, room darkening shades would solve the issue easily.

Great Property--5 Stars!!!

A lovely property--so clean & quiet with a well equipped kitchen. Great beds, linens & towels, beach towels & chairs too. The screened area was a wonderful place for morning coffee and that afternoon cocktail. The communal spaces were welcoming and watching the fish and a dolphin from the dock was a nice surprise. There are walking/biking paths close by and it is an easy drive to Dunedin Ball Park. Close to shopping & other local attractions and in the St Pete's area. We had a great stay and would stay again.

Florida or Bust!

We had such a great stay at this location. Interaction with the property owners was easy and they went above and beyond to make us feel welcome! The location was great, close to the Clearwater touristy area but not right in it which made traffic so much better. The house was perfect for us and our four legged dogs with space to walk them and take them out. The shared patio space and amenities were so nice and lastly access to the water was a major perk! We didn't want to leave and hope to get back there soon!

This property was in an amazing location. The bay views were breath taking. The bikes were awesome as we took a bike ride every evening. We wanted to take the kayaks out but the weather was chilly while we were there. The owners are amazing and very friendly and accommodating. The property was very clean and very well furnished.

This space is exactly as it is described and more. It’s a beautiful oasis with a wonderful yard, the backyard is also peaceful with access to the ocean. I took the cable out very easily from the dock. The WiFi worked excellent for meetings. Everything in the kitchen worked great and my puppies were welcome! There are adorable doggie towels so I could wash my pups after a long day and there was a doggy bed. Comfy pillows, bed, and blankets. The home is close to a lot of great restaurants and the neighborhood is quiet. I would stay again!

A Nice Quiet Place

Everything was new in this apartment - repaired after hurricane damage. That was very nice. The kitchen was fine and well equipped. The beds were comfortable, and closet and bureau space were great. The living room was a bit small and the sofa was not very comfortable, but it was fine, and we were not in the unit much. It was nice having access to a gas grill, which was in good condition. The view from the patio was nice, but it wasn't right outside our unit. There was no view from our unit.The owners were very responsive to our requests and were patient when I asked questions that they had addressed in their information sheet.The location was not close to any beaches, but we did not want that. We wanted to go for enjoyable walks, and this place was very close to a nice paved path along the bay - very pleasant.We enjoyed the stay.

Week long trip to Clearwater/Dunedan

This was our first trip to Clearwater and it was amazing. The unit is a duplex, but super private, the opposite unit and another unit in front were rented, but we only saw them in passing. It's been recently updated and is immaculate. There is a shared area in the front out by the water. It has tables and a grill if you just want to hang out. The owners have a room full of bicycles, kayaks, sand toys, and even beach chairs. All in great condition, available to use. The whole property was charming and the owners made sure they were available if we needed anything, which we didn't. The house is very close to Dunedin and the Pinellas trail. We ended up riding bikes everywhere because it's so close and easier to get around. The unit we stayed in was perfect for my husband and I, but It would have been crowded with an extra person added in. We really weren't inside much because there's so much to do in the surrounding area. We highly recommended and would stay again if we go back to that area!
