Tampa family vacation

We visited from Tennessee for a week with the kids and this was a good choice to stay at. It made it much more relaxing after being at the beach and other activities to come back and relax.

Wonderful stay away from home

We loved our stay here. So close to the ballpark to see our Phillies Spring Training. We grilled at night and enjoyed the wonderful backyard where we relaxed every night. Melissa was a wonderful host and very communicative. The home was clean and truly felt like our home away from home. We will definitely stay here again next year!

Relaxing

We were actually there for a funeral that consisted of three days of gatherings. It was so nice to come back to a cozy home which is much more preferable than a hotel room. An added plus was it was dog friendly and our fur babies throughly enjoyed the home and backyard!! We even had the opportunity to bring my husband’s father back with us for an evening meal and card game it was such an enjoyable evening for him to break up the stress of adjusting to life after losing his wife.

This home was very clean, well supplied, and overall a perfect stay. Our dogs loved the fenced in yard and my mom loved sitting outside with them. We loved the home and the location was perfect for us to visit Tampa and Clearwater. I would stay again. 10/10.

Perfect vacation destination for us!!

Felt just like home, only warmer. My dogs loved the fenced-in back yard, and we also loved sitting out there with them. The house was very comfortable, it had everything we needed and Melissa was a wonderful host....we hated to leave. Hopefully we'll be able to plan a vacation there again in the future.

Great house in an excellent location

We had a great stay at this house. The property was about 15 minutes from our mother's house in Safety Harbor, and 15 minutes from multiple beaches. The house has everything needed for a stay, and the kitchen is well equipped for a week long stay. We had a question and Michelle responded quickly with great information. Even our pup felt at home in this friendly pet environment.
