Family Weekend

We stayed at this Lake House mid April and the weather was fantastic for siting outside on the couches by the pool. The pool table outside was a HIT. They added these solar pool floats meant to head the pool naturally and they WORK. The inside was amazing, kitchen came with everything we needed to make a few meals at the house instead of eating out all weekend. Beds were very comfortable. We will be looking to stay there again!

Enjoyable space for family

We had 5 adults and 2 kids around 2 years old and there was plenty of clean space and seating for all in the living room and kitchen. The owners were very responsive and helpful. There are many great restaurants a short drive away. We enjoyed watching the wildlife around the lake. It was easy to get to various attractions around Tampa.

Peaceful but Accessible

This is a beautifully appointed house, with obvious attention to every detail a traveler may desire. It is in a peaceful, very private location, but so easily accessible to shopping and restaurants. The owner responded quickly to the couple questions we had. We had a fabulous week! Our family of 5 was very comfortable with room to spare.

Fresh Renovation - Great Pool

We really had a great time at this property. Our kids were in the pool constantly. The interior had a great renovation, large kitchen, etc. There were two primary bedrooms one master with large bath and one minor with a private bath which worked great for our group. Lake sunrises were a nice plus. Thanks!

Great for family gatherings

We had a great time at our “noche buena” or Christmas Eve family gathering. The property owners, the Stoddard’s, were very accommodating. The description of the property and photos are very accurate. Very clean and picturesque setting. Most of all the lay out and openness of the house and grounds makes it a great place for larger family gathering. We had 21 adults for dinner and did so comfortably, and this despite the fact that we were not able to use the enclosed patio area as we had planned due to the “bomb cyclone” weather that happened over Christmas. Very close to all needed stores but located away from crowded neighborhoods, we will clearly keep it in mind in the future.
