Perfect Getaway!

This home was everything we would have expected plus more. It was the perfect location for a small birthday party. We enjoyed the pool and outdoor amenities, as well as the spacious indoors. The host was helpful and extremely nice to deal with. We will go back every year if they will have us!

Awesome place with awesome views

Don was an excellent host! House had everything we need and the pool area with the outdoor fridge, pool table, and fans were great and we spent most of our time out there. Would definitely recommend this place to anyone with kids or a large group. Again, Don was the best host and we really enjoyed talking with him and are grateful for him letting us rent his property.

We had such a a wonderful experience!! Conveniently located, SO spacious and CLEAN! We felt very welcomed - Don was. Great host, very responsive and helpful when we needed fishing advice!

Lovely Space with plenty of room.

The property was very clean. It was very centrally located in Port Richey- very close to many restaurants. I loved the fact that all 4 bedrooms all had their own attached, private bathrooms. The outdoor area was great. The kitchen was well stocked. I loved the washing machines upstairs AND downstairs. Don, the host, was very helpful, friendly, and quick to respond. I would recommend this property.

Perfect weekend getaway

This house was great for our family getaway. After checking in we got to kick off the weekend with an awesome sunset on the dock! The pool was big, which was perfect for our party of 10 and the yard was great for the dogs to run and play. We got bait from the marina and caught snook, redfish, snapper, sheepshead and flounder all right from the dock! The pontoon boat was a really nice added feature. It was so nice to just step onboard and go! Thanks Don! We will be back!

Quaint Older Home Great For Family & Friends

We were a group of cousins and some spouses and adult children in the area for a cousin's birthday celebration. The home spaces were great for our needs with plenty of areas to join together or just enjoy your own space. Pool, Jacuzzi, TV and pool table in the Florida room was a popular amenity. The home has some deferred maintenance as do many older homes, but nothing too unmanageable. Don was nearby and quick to respond to any questions or needs.

Awesome Family Trip!

This property was outstanding. It’s on an extremely quiet street with a gorgeous sunset. The property feels much larger than it looked. At one time, we had a dozen people there and didn’t feel cramped at all. There is fun stuff to do for kids too. The pool/grill area was super cool. The property manager is a super cool guy. He lives very close by, and he is extremely quick to respond if you have to ask him anything. I’d definitely stay here again, and I’d recommend the place too.

Spaciousness house with awesome pool

House was nicely stated and big enough for our 2 families with total of 9. we cooked most meals there so 3 fridges was nice. kids loved pool which was clean and heated option was great for our March trip and adults utilized hot tub every night. Didn't realize one of the sleeper couches that counted towards sleeps 12 was in main living room beside pool area so wasn't usable for us but we made it work.

The Getaway

Coming from a big city like Chicago and getting a chance to stay in Don’s property in Port Richey was truly a great experience. The house had everything : Pool , jacuzzi, space , 5 bathrooms, huge kitchen, two sets of washers/ dryers, and every essential appliance needed in the kitchen. From the front porch sits a dock with a view leading out to the Gulf of Mexico. Don is readily available to guide you through any questions or issues. The home has good character being the age it is , but their are some really good updates that makes this a unique property and worth the price. Definitely looking forward to renting this property again!!!!

Great views

There were several things wrong during our stay, however, we had communicated to the owner and I think they will be resolved. There are two large refrigerators in the kitchen and neither worked. There was one out on the pool area, which we were able to use but very inconvenient. The dishwasher broke after one use so we ended up washing and drying all of our dishes, pots and pans after all our meals, which was not fun. Lastly, the toaster would smoke if we didn't watch it and pull out the plug in order for it to pop up. Thank goodness my family and friends were good sports about helping out. One of the bedrooms had a terrible mattress, but, again, they were good sports about sleeping on it. Eight of us meet each year and spend three nights someplace to celebrate the new year. We always look forward to it. The location is great and we mostly enjoyed the house. I think when these things are fixed, it will be a good vacation spot, especially for families. Loved the layout of the house.

AMAZING home and location!

This was a perfect home for our large group and family to stay for our annual scalloping trip. The space is perfect. The home is open so everyone could enjoy. The beds were comfortable. The dock and dock space was great to catch the sunset and pull our boat up. Would definitely like to come back!

Perfect place for a scalloping vacation

This was a well appointed home (if you think you need it, it’s there) in an excellent location with beautiful sunsets and a dock the kids can fish from. The photos do not do this place justice! There are double fridges and freezers and a fridge on the patio. The pool has a shallow end on both sides. We brought a net and played volleyball. The spa never heated up. Don’t count on it. But the rest made up for it. It was too hot to get in the jacuzzi anyway. Don was always available. Great host! We are making arrangements to come again next year.

A little disappointed

The house was very spacious and perfect for our group size. The kids thoroughly enjoyed the pool. I chose this house mainly for the pool and the kitchen with double ovens and 2 fridges. I had planned a baking night with my grand kids, however neither oven was operable. One of the fridges freezer section wasnt working and we lost two quarts of ice cream that was being served with birthday cake. Quite embarrassing for our BD party. We couldn't turn on the hot tub either. The boat was also broken so we couldn't use it. We did leave a voice mail and messaged Don through VRBO messaging. We might think about staying there in the future if everything was in working order.
