Great communication and exactly matching description

Such a great area/safe/quiet and tranquil street. The dock was perfect for some amazing sunset views, if had more time would have done some kayaking. Would book again when traveling the area again.

Immaculately clean and extremely easy to use. The home was spotless on arrival, well-organized, and clearly cared for. Entry was simple, instructions were clear, and everything—from appliances to living spaces—was intuitive and accessible. Pet-friendly accommodations made traveling with our dog easy, and the sunset views in the evening were absolutely spectacular, adding a perfect finishing touch to a very comfortable and hassle-free stay.

This house was perfect in every way! The location was convenient to restaurants, the lovely downtown area of Lake Placid, and the Seabring Racetrack. We enjoyed having dinner on the patio in the evenings. The little family of rabbits entertained us every evening. The kitchen was well appointed. It had everything we needed. The house was beyond beautiful and clean. The furniture was extremely comfortable. The owners were welcoming and incredibly supportive when I contacted him about a tiny issue. You cannot go wrong with this house and owner. We WILL be back!

ITS SO NICE I DON"T WANT TO LEAVE REVIEW

This place is set up great as a vacation rental. First of all it is relatively new. Quiet street at end so hardly any traffic. Both bathrooms have nice walk in showers. House is big enough but not too big. Back porch is great to sit on and eat breakfast. Its great to just sit out there and watch the wildlife. Very peaceful and view of the lake. Owner is great to deal with and has marked light switches and controllers to make things easy. Seems he tries to think of all the little things to makes it nice for you to stay. I hate to leave review so good, because it might not be there to rent when I want to again.

Absolutely fantastic!!!!

This house is beyond wonderful! It met our expectations and exceeded them. If anything the host under sold the house. The home is extremely well maintained and very comfortable. The amenities are all upscale. We truly felt at home during our stay. The master bed is extremely comfortable, with a private bath with an oversized beautiful shower. The main bath has the same type of beautiful shower. Hot water was never a problem. The view from the back patio looking out over the lake was spectacular, sunsets over the lake were fantastic. JB is without doubt the best host we have ever rented from! He described his property accurately, as I said if anything he under promoted his beautiful home. His communication was fantastic, with very prompt responses to any inquiry or concerns. For the first time ever in a VRBO home we had absolutely NO issues!!! JB checked in with us periodically during our almost 3 week stay, but not too much to be intrusive. He truly wanted to make sure our stay was perfect. We hope to return again for another visit.

Debbie and David Thank you so much for your glowing review! We're thrilled to hear that our property exceeded your expectations, and it warms our hearts to know you felt at home during your almost 3-week stay. Your kind words about the amenities, comfortable beds, and the breathtaking view over the lake truly make our day. We also wanted to express our sincere gratitude for being absolutely awesome renters. Your commitment to leaving the house in impeccable condition didn't go unnoticed, and we genuinely appreciate your respect for our space. Your feedback is invaluable, and we're honored to be considered the best host you've rented from. It was a pleasure having you, and we'd be more than happy to welcome you back for another visit. Safe travels, and we look forward to hosting you again in the future! Warm regards, JB
