The house was spotless, had all of the pans, dishes, utensils and glasses we needed for a party of 6. Communication with the owners was quick and we had absolutely no issues. The pool and hot tub was enjoyed for hours on the days we had warmer weather. The house was exactly what we needed and beyond my expectations.

This was the first time we have rented a house for a vacation and honestly I was skeptical. This was so incredible! From the moment I started emailing back and forth with Pat she answered all of my questions ( and trust me there were a lot). She was there every step of the process. The house was beautiful and do clean and welcoming. My family of 8 adults anf 1 baby had an amazing time. Will definitely be back.

Our family enjoyed the Christmas holiday at this lovely home. The host was very nice & accommodating. The house itself was gorgeous and was spotless upon our arrival. All of the amenities were well used and enjoyed by our family, the sunsets here are stunning! We appreciated the extra touch the host took by adding a Christmas tree in the living room. We would definitely rent this house again!

Fabulous house, excellent location

A spacious, well equipped and comfortable house with a lovely pool and outdoor area. Could have spent a lot of time happily just using the pool and games room but as a bonus it is also very convenient for the theme parks, especially Disney World. We particularly enjoyed sitting outside in the evening watching the lovely sunsets. Good supermarkets and restaurants nearby. The Rock and Brew became a favourite.

This property is well manicured. Even the baseboards are clean! We have been in a lot of VRBO properties and most forget this detail. Pat was wonderful to work with.

Love this place & can't wait to return. Clean, convenient & well stocked property. Just bring clothes. The pool & hot tub got plenty of use & was wonderful. This house isn't missing a thing.

The house was in great shape and very spacious. The kitchen had all of the dishes/pans etc we needed. We spent most of the time at the pool that over looks the pond and playing cornhole outside in the fenced in side yard. We would rent this again if we ever came back to the area. Thanks Tom

We had another wonderful time here. On our second year here and already booked for next year. As my family said “if it ain’t broke don’t fix it”. This house is a wonderful place to unwind and forget about everything. This house is everything it claims to be and more. Haven’t stayed in anything nicer in all ours years coming to Florida. So till next year!!

Best trip ever

We had an amazing time. This was our first time visiting Disney World where we didn't stay on the property because we were celebrating our daughter's 21st birthday and she wanted to stay somewhere that we could have a private pool. It was so nice and relaxing to come back from the parks and have the pool to ourselves. The house was beautiful and comfortable and we enjoyed having our breakfast on the lanai. We love the Disney Resorts but we definitely want to stay at this or one of your other properties again the next time we visit Florida. Thank you for helping to make our first time renting with VRBO a wonderful experience!

Four adults stayed in this beautiful home. We couldn't believe how well stocked this home was and were surprised with the options we had to make our vacation comfortable. The pool area and view were a perfect way to relax and getaway from the fast pace of Disney. The location is very convenient whether for shopping needs, dining or the parks.

Great House for Family at Disney

This house gave all the room and entertainment we needed to have a great vacation at WDW. Quiet neighborhood and quick drive to the park that didn’t require tolls or highways. The pool and game room was loads of fun! Only issues were the dishwasher didn’t work for our entire stay and neither did the ice machine. The microwave didn’t work either but they provided a countertop one so that wasn’t a problem.
