What a great place to stay for our girl's weekend! The property is beautiful and well maintained. The owners thought of everything you could possibly need for your get-away Not only that, the communication, friendliness and taking time to answer all of our questions was above and beyond. If you are looking for true Florida beauty nestled with peace and quiet, this is the place. Thank you for all you did to make our trip very memorable. We can't wait to stay again next year.

Host was easy to get in contact with. Pictures online are a bit misleading as to the quality of the home and space in the rooms, but overall was a nice place to stay.
This home is absolutely gorgeous! Very spacious! Owner was very nice and made sure we had everything we needed. We will definitely be staying here again.
Hello! A couple family members and I rented this spot to have a visit with our grandmother who lives nearby but is unable to host. This place was absolutely perfect. We were so comfortable and loved being surrounded by the woods. It really helped our trip feel like a true vacation. The kitchen is spacious and great for cooking. The back deck is a perfect place to sit around and talk over a meal. The hosts were communicative and welcoming. We are already talking about renting here again!Couple of potentially nit-picking improvement suggestions I would offer:Option for lower lighting in the living room, something between the harsh overhead lighting and no light. A well placed lamp or two would make a lot of difference in the evening. A couple more cozy throw blankets for the sofa. More towels including offering a few beach towels would be huge for travelers. Thank you so much for everything!
