Business Conference

Had to attend a business conference in Lakeland. The house was a perfect option for 3 adults attending the conference. The home was in a great location in town. We were able to walk to breakfast each day. We would definitely choose to stay at this location again.

Luxury Villa

The original property that we rented developed an HVAC issue, so that the owner offered the Villa instead. We were very appreciative of his accommodation. It is a beautiful property and the pool was very nice.

Lakeland Trip

Very nice property in a quiet neighborhood. You would never know that you are only 1 block from one of the primary thoroughfares through Lakeland! This house was perfect for our family of 4 to use as home base for the week. Driving distance to the coast or to Orlando. Property owner was very responsive.

Great centrally located in Lakeland

My friends and I were attending a Conference in Lakeland and needed a place that was comfortable and convenient. This property more than met those needs.Our host, Edward, was responsive to questions and messages about our stay. If you are looking for a clean, quiet, convenient place to stay in Lakeland, I recommend this one.

Less than stellar

The house itself was clean and as described, however during our stay the A/C stopped working and the house was 80 degrees inside. Another point of interest is my husband is allergic to dust and mold and his allergies went crazy and we had to move him to a hotel. Then with the A/C, the rest of us moved to a hotel. So the 5 days ended up costing us double. There were a few other minor things wrong with the place but we tried to overlook them (slow drain in shower/tub so standing in 3 inches of water, and ceiling air vent falling). One other point of interest-A/C was regulated and could not be set below 70 at night or 75 during the day, so if you like it colder than that, this is not the place for you. The owner/manager was responsive but we vacated due to the heat and didn’t know how long it would take to fix. We definitely would not stay at this property again. On a positive note, it was a good location and close to everything we needed.

Winter getaway

We really enjoyed your house. It was in walking distance to a very nice pub and two breakfasts diners. The location was great for everything we were doing. The only downside was no TVs in the bedrooms. We loved sitting on the front porch in the morning. We would definitely stay here again.

Lovely little house

We very much enjoyed our time in Dixieland. The house was just what we needed while we were in town visiting family. Everything was as expected and the owner was very quick to reply and address our needs. The close proximity to the downtown area was convenient. We also enjoyed the short walk to a little cafe and coffee shop.
