Another year, another great stay!

This is our third year coming here, for an annual college golf trip. This house is perfect for groups. The house is clean, and has everything you need! Owners are fantastic and so responsive. Can’t wait to have the opportunity to book next year!

BED BUGS!!!!

We found multiple bedrooms with bed bugs on our second night at the property. To make matters worse, the owners knew of the issue, trusted the problem had been remediated but never checked the property out themselves. We simply turned over mattresses and box springs and the problem became very apparent. I’m not sure how they checked to make sure the problem was solved but it didn’t take much effort. A very poorly managed issue and owners wanting to “make it right” by offering free nights at this same property. I wouldn’t let my worst enemy stay here. We lost out on 1 day of Disney, which isn’t cheap, due to making other arrangements for another property, packing all our stuff and moving. Owner suggested we “extend our stay”. Maybe they don’t have jobs or kids in school but that was not an option for us. To the owners of this property…you want to make it right, reimburse us on our Disney costs for one day or stop telling us you want to make this right by offering more free nights at this property. I do not see how you can even begin to remotely justify this as a worthy solution. Thanks for ruining our family vacation. I would attach the pictures of pillows we found in the trash and of the bed bugs if VRBO allowed it but they don’t. We had children staying here. If this were my property, I would’ve been on a flight to make sure the issue was resolved because an issue like this is SERIOUS so take it seriously and stop putting renters in harms way. Please avoid this place!!!

Perfect house for our golf trip

Thank you for allowing us to share your home. It worked out wonderfully for our entire group.It is an amazing golf course, friendly staff, and the new range area is awesome. Location was ideal. Walking to and from the course was simple (and necessary after our post-golf visits to the clubhouse). The house was excellent as well. We enjoyed the patio/pool area, watched some sports on the outstanding hugeTV, and cooked some great meals on the grill and in the kitchen. We had every pan, pot, and utensil needed...which has not always been the case on this golf trip (we are approaching 30 years). It was so nice to have a pool that was nice and warm as the temperature cooled in the evening. Thanks again for everything...the consensus was that we would like to come back next year

About the host

Hosted by Lori Marini

Florida Dunes 4 U is a group of 4 couples who went together to purchase a house in Florida. Each one of us brings a different skill set to the group so owning/managing a joint property made sense to us. Our property is our only rental property. When you rent with us you will communicate directly with an owner, not a property manager.

Why they chose this property

We choose Southern Dunes country club and club course in Haines City, Florida for its location. We wanted a property where tropical storms would not likely be an issue, where the golfing was awesome and its location was convenient to not only the theme parks but not too far away from the beaches. All of this combined makes this location ideal.

What makes this property unique

Our property is unique in the fact it has 7 bedrooms and 4.5 bathrooms. 2 of these bedrooms include ensuites. This is what makes this property ideal for multiple families or groups to stay together. In addition, in 2022 our pool deck and lanai were significantly increased. Our pool deck and lanai are one of the largest in the Southern Dunes community.
