Great house in a great location

This house was amazing both inside and out . The pool was beautiful refreshing. The location was close to the sponge docks of Tarpon Springs and about 25 min drive to Clearwater beach. I highly reccomend this house to stay. The owner Cregg was very helpful and answered our question right away.

Florida experience

Very clean. The house is nicely laid out. Master is separate from other two bedrooms which is nice when traveling with family. Backyard is fun during the day with the pool and wildlife all around. Lizards, squirrels, birds and othe nature sounds fill air during the day. At night its the perfect place to relax and have a nigh cap.

The perfect getaway

We really loved staying at this property. It is close to Howard beach, and everything Tarpon Springs has to offer. The neighborhood was safe and pleasant. The house was clean and beautifully decorated. The kitchen was well appointed and the beds were really comfortable. We loved that there were beach chairs, towels and umbrellas for our use. The pool area was lovely and we enjoyed sitting out on the back deck sipping coffee in the morning. The yard is really private, which was nice. I would definitely stay again!

Fantastic place!

Cregg's Vrbo was wonderful. Great layout and beautifully decorated. Beds were very comfortable and the kitchen was outfitted with everything you would need. We didn't use the pool much due to the weather, however it was nicely heated and the backyard is very private. As a host, Cregg was very helpful and his communication was excellent. He provides a unit that is full of extras and goes above and beyond to make sure you have a comfortable stay. Definitely would stay here again in the future!

Freah, Clean, Beach Vibe.

The house was fresh and clean. Felt very open and beachy. We really appreciated the beach wagon and beach supplies. Loaded it all up and enjoyed a day at Honeymoon Island State Park - highly recommend. The backyard pool was just right for kids on a hot afternoon. Fully equipped kitchen for cooking. The host responded in a timely manner to all of our questions and concerns. Great location. We would definitley stay here again.

A relaxing oasis in a quiet neighborhood close to downtown Tarpon Springs and the beach! The house is beautiful, super clean and well appointed. We found the kitchen to be well stocked with quality cookware, the beds super comfortable and the amenities throughout the house to be thoughtful and plenty. Greg is a kind and responsive host. My family had a great week there and we are already missing the amazing pool. We hope to come again!

The Best Girls Trip Ever!

This adorable house is so perfect!! It’s so much cuter in person. The fenced in back yard and pool area is like having your own personal tropical oasis! The neighborhood felt so safe and was so quiet! Be sure to pack some bug spray, because you’re going to want to enjoy the back porch as much as possible.

Beautiful property inside and out. Photos don’t do the property justice. It looks brand new. Everything you need is there, including chairs and umbrellas for the beach which was 5 minutes from the house. Super comfy beds with extra pillows. The backyard is a tropical oasis. Lounge chairs and pool floats for relaxing and cool covered deck area to get out of the sun. We spent a day just enjoying the backyard. Perfect location, close to sponge docks and Dunedin. We will definitely be staying again!

Beautiful House

This home was is a great community and easy to find. Plenty of parking. From the moment you walk in the house is up to date and immaculate. The house comes with everything you need except food. From the living room, kitchen, bedrooms and porch the home was a great stay. The back yard has a fountain and pool which made it kind of an oasis. Gregg is an excellent host and checks in to see if there is anything you need. Highly recommend this home.

Family Spring Break

The house was very clean and in a great neighborhood. The house was alos very quiet with no odd noises waking us up. The beds were comfortable and the bathroom/shower had everything we needed. The kids (11 and 13) loved the pool and the 2 bikes in the garage for our use. Cregg had lots of beach toys, pool towels and pool floaties as well. The backyard was full of lizards, squirrels, birds and all types of wildlife. I would highly recommend to anyone!

Perfectly Delightful

This is a lovely home, spotlessly clean, well-appointed, and beautifully decorated. We had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The bikes in the garage were a wonderful surprise, and we used them often. The spices in the cupboard made it easy to cook meals. There is a large pantry for all of your groceries, something that is often lacking in other vacation homes we have rented. Plenty of towels, paper products, and even shampoos and soaps. I highly recommend, and look forward to staying there again.

The Perfect Florida Oasis

We recently stayed at this stunning house in Florida, and it was the perfect getaway! From the moment we arrived, we were impressed by the cleanliness, beautiful decor, and thoughtful amenities throughout the home. Each room was tastefully decorated, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere that truly felt like a home away from home. The kitchen was fully equipped with high-quality appliances and even included pool-safe dishes, which was a nice touch. The bedrooms were spacious, with incredibly comfortable beds that made for restful nights all around. The highlight of our stay was definitely the pool! The outdoor area was beautifully maintained despite two recent hurricanes in the Tarpon Springs area. The backyard porch quickly became our favorite spot for morning coffee and conversation. Although the fence is a bit low (so you may want to keep that in mind), the space was private and inviting, with a lovely waterfall fountain and plenty of opportunities for bird-watching. With local beaches temporarily closed due to the storms, the pool became our private oasis where we spent most of our days soaking up the Florida sunshine. Our host, Greg, was fantastic—responsive, friendly, and attentive to every detail, which made our stay even more enjoyable. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would absolutely stay here again. If you're looking for a perfect home with a pool in Florida, this is it! Five stars all around!
