The place was very clean and smelled great, and is family friendly. I would recommend this place to anyone . It’s close enough to the springs and not crazy far from the beaches . The host is very well mannered and answers fast. If you are thinking about booking this place , it’s a must !

Family Visit

We stayed here for the weekend while visiting family in Archer, FL. It was such a peaceful stay. I wouldn’t change anything about this property except adding a curtain to the sliding glass door in the master bedroom.

Beautifully overstocked with all the amenities you could possibly need

Lucy’s home was super clean and felt like the perfect temporary home. Everything was stocked as if she prepared for her family to live there. I highly recommend this place and I did see a deer in the front lawn after I arrived.

Off the beaten path…

We didn’t realize it was a brand new build, and we possibly could’ve been the first people to stay there. Nice quiet neighborhood with easy access to the main road. The house has all the amenities plus more. Will stay there again. Thank you.

Tournament Bungalo

The interior of the house was beautiful. Very clean. Lots of space. Felt like new. Contained everything you would need for a stay. It’s definitely in a rural neighborhood but just 15 minutes from major softball complex which was great for us as we had a tournament there this weekend. Would definitely stay again.

House was very nice on the inside. The outside of the property needs some TLC. The grass needed cutting and weed eating. Weeds everywhere. Hard to tell where the driveway was. Had a nice deck area that was overshadowed by all tall weeds.

We loved our stay! The only thing we found misleading was the pictures of the property grounds. We were under the impression that the pond/spring and playground were in fact on property grounds, however they were not. It was a park nearby and it happened to be closed for hunting season. The house had a ton of security lights which was nice seeing as it gets dark fairly early. The property itself was large enough for the kids and dogs to play outside. It is off a nice and quiet road. We would stay again! Thank you for having us!
