If your looking for a quite spot the family can enjoy...this is it. Plan to sit around the campfire and do a little fishing from the dock.

Robert, Nicole and his team was absolutely incredible!!! The response times were very fast and addressed all of my questions very fast. The property provided the ultimate Florida getaway to recharge! I was beyond impressed, everything from the private dock to the proximity to local attractions was exactly as described, with no surprises. The home itself was immaculately clean and incredibly spacious, providing more than enough room for everyone to stretch out and relax. Whether we were fishing off the dock or just enjoying the view, it felt like a true private retreat. If you’re looking for a peaceful escape that actually lives up to the ad, this is it!

House was great and clean. AC was awesome and appliances were great. Stocked with plenty of towels and cookware. Best part of house is its location to various boat ramps for multiple lakes and river. If you don’t want to drive, there’s a ramp to Tiger Lake 200 yards away. The covered carport was great for boat parking. I would defiantly return to this property. Hosts were easy to communicate with, helpful, and responsive.

Best Lake House in Florida

Myself, my son, a friend and his son met in Lake Wales for some Airboating on Lake Kissimmee and the surrounding lakes over the weekend. I could not have picked a better place to stay. We had direct lake access through Tiger Lake and the property was perfect for us. I highly recommend this property for your next adventure in the Lake Wales area

Absolutely AWESOME Experience

This property, and staff, is truly exceptional in every regard. From the communication leading up to our stay, to the second we arrived at the lake, to the instant we left everything was simply AWESOME! Top notch vacation rental experience in every aspect possible. My family and I cannot WAIT to book this place again. The price is right, the staff is awesome, the property and lake is incredible, and the time with family spent around the campfire and on the dock was simply priceless. If you are interested in this place, book it. You won't regret it. I just hope its available for our use again soon! We *ALL* had a tremendous time... ages 48 to 80.

Spectacular views!

First off...working with Robert was awesome! We had great communications and he was very attentive to any needs or request we might have had. The home is in a great location. We were there for a 5 day fishing trip and even though we primarily fished the main lake during the day, we fished the pond behind the home from the dock in the evenings and caught (and released) numerous nice bass! The home itself is very clean ....photos are accurate and you can tell they have done a lot of work to make it the welcoming retreat that it is. There is a small marina with a boat ramp about a 2 minute walk from the home and they offer a boat slip if you don't want to launch and recover every day. In short, if you are looking for a great home in an equally great location to fish the Kissimmee chain of lakes or just looking for a nice retreat with great fishing right out your back door....this is the place. We are already making plans to return. Did I mention the spectacular sunrise views over the lake?

We just wrapped an extended stay in Lake Wales and I can’t say enough about how well we were taken care of. From the first message to the day we packed up, everything was easy.The place itself was exactly what we needed for a longer stay. Comfortable, clean, and set up so a family could actually live in it, not just pass through. When you’re somewhere for more than a few nights, that difference shows up fast.What stood out most was how accommodating the host was. We had a longer timeline than a typical booking and it never once felt like an imposition. Questions got answered quickly. Requests got handled without friction. That kind of hospitality is rare and we noticed it every day we were there.We’re already planning to come back. When you find a place that treats you right and a host who makes the whole thing effortless, you don’t go looking for anything else.Highly recommend again and again , but , not too much because we need to stay sometimes!
