Beautiful House

This property was ideal for our stay. It was warm, inviting and beautiful inside that has been all updated. The inside did not look like a 100 year old plantation home, but the feel was there. Our group would stay there again if ever we were back in the area!

Great Vacation!

Great location! Attended an area wedding plus went to Orlando and Tampa. No surprises here! Very spacious, clean and well decorated. Enjoyed looking at the art work as well as choosing a different room to relax in as the week went by. Beth communicated very well ensuring all needs were met. A very sincere caring person!

Sibling trip

My brother and his wife and my sister, traveled to Winter Haven to visit our sister, who had had some recent health concerns. This house suited our needs perfectly. There was lots of space to accommodate having our sister and her family come and visit for a day. the kitchen was roomy enough for us to cook together and there were enough spaces for us to go, if we needed a little alone time. Beth was amazing at keeping in touch, and checked in a few times via texts just to see if there was anything we needed. We had a problem with a couple of the fans, and she was able to resolve the issue right away for one of them and sent someone to assess the problem with the other one.It is a lovely space and we would certainly stay again, if we come back to the area.

Home away from home for a wedding.

Perfect place for us. Very clean. Plenty of space. Felt like home. It was a chilly weekend but the house was warm and the “fire place” made it feel comfy. There were some thoughtful decorations for the thanksgiving week. Great communication with the property manager.

Wedding Week

I cannot say enough nice things about the hosts! So helpful! The house was spacious, and perfect for the family of the groom as we prepared for the wedding. Convenient to all the emergency shopping runs we needed for rehearsal and wedding events. I would definitely book again if ever in the area with a large group.

Airshow Headquarters

Me and friends stayed 4 nights while at the annual airshow. The house was wonderful and the host was always prompt to answer questions. We enjoy cooking out nightly rather than fighting restaurants and that worked out well. No complaints and will definitely stay there again!

Beautifully Appointed Home Away From Home

Wow!!! What an AMAZING property! This house has beautiful modern touches with the coziness of a historical home. From front to back, top to bottom, this home is spacious, gorgeously decorated, clean, and has everything you could possibly need! It was a perfect spot for us 5 ladies to relax, rest, cook meals, and read our books. There were so many perfect nooks for reading and relaxing. The house is so spacious and could easily fit a much bigger party than just us 5. Beth, our host, was so sweet and communicative. She was so helpful and lovely to chat with. Thank you, Beth!I only wish we could’ve stayed for more nights! Will definitely be back. This is a gem!

Beautiful House

Upon getting to this house the check in was a little difficult but the owner responded to our text with the code right away. The cell phone signal is very spotty here but the wifi worked great for all our needs. The only issue we had was heat diwnstairs. The owner was notified right away and worked so hard to have it fixed. I don't hold this against her because it was Christmas time. It started working the last night but I'm glad it will be working for the next guest. There is a fireplace too that heats up the house nicely. The house is beautiful inside and was decorated for Christmas. We enjoyed our stay and would stay again if we come back to the area.

About the host

Hosted by Beth Eaton

Host profile image
I'm originally from the west coast and enjoy traveling and managing our businesses in both the Pacific Northwest and Central Florida. I enjoy life on the farm and bird watching on the lake. I love my family, big family dinners and family vacations! I enjoy hosting our homes and rooms, accommodating our guests, adding to their vacation experience and helping them to have great family memories!

Why they chose this property

I love the historic element of this over 100 yr old Plantation Home, the huge, enclosed, front porch, private yard with the lake access right across the street. I enjoy walking to the parks, ball fields and college nearby. I also like the fact that stores, great restaurants an everything you need including the hospital is less than a mile away!

What makes this property unique

The home us unique in every way. As one of my guests said "it is an old Floridian Mansion that has been tastefully updated and decorated." Complete with a tree swing in the huge 100 yr old tree in the fenced front yard across from a lake. It has the biggest yard and private parking area around in a safe neighborhood.
