About the host
Hosted by Deana Macdonald

Our parents, Ben and Dolores Treece purchased and moved this historic home off the Gasparilla Inn Property for preservation purposes and my family enjoyed may vacations here going up while our parents homesteaded here when not at their Asheville, NC home. In 2019, 3 siblings with the help of our spouses began the 2 year process of commissioning a historical architect, consultant and residential building to approve, plan and execute a historical rebuild. Construction began in August 2020 and was completed April 2021. This home has been upgraded in every way for the entertainment and enjoyment of our family and our guests. All windows are now hurricane and wind rated, central air and heat throughout, gas fireplace, appliances are Wolf and Subzero with an infra-red TEC Grill by the pool. It is now a 5 bedroom/5 bath home, all with closets, bathes and TVs. We have added a private pool, garage and irrigated landscaping. There are books and games for kids or for those who haven't forgotten how to be one. Our parents loved family and enjoyed entertaining friends. We encourage you to make your own happy memories in this space and on this island. Enjoy!
