It was easy to feel at home in her perfectly decorated and well appointed environment, she truly has thought of everything you could need. We sincerely appreciated her attention to detail and would surely rent again from her given the chance. Dave & Lisa ##### Lisa P.

First thing we noticed upon entering was how spotlessly clean everything was. The interior is very tasteful and comfortable. If you like to cook the kitchen in well equipped. The only downside is that it is in an older neighborhood and there is a lot of construction goin on. It is very convenient to beach, restaurants and shopping Janie is a wonderful host and is very responsive to any questions you may have. We definitely recommend this rental. ##### bonnie k.

Janie was quick to answer our questions and requests. Noticed a cooler wasn't in the listing description and inquired about one. Janie purchased one and had it on sight before we arrived. The place was clean, in a great neighborhood and close to many beaches. The state park pass was an a great amenity! Looking forward to going back again! ##### Lori B.

Property manager was fantastic to rent from! Stayed a week with my husband and two dogs while we helped move our aunt. The house is the perfect size and the fenced in yard was wonderful for our dogs. Great location and wonderful people to rent from! ##### Autumn F. Stayed 7 nights in May 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Joe F. 3 Mar 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### A happy stay at the Happy Place This was our first long term stay in Florida. The house was clean and equipped with everything that we needed for a comfortable stay. The host provided a handbook for the house and was quickly available if needed. The house is located in a neighborhood safe for walking and biking. It is a perfect location for access to the beach for beautiful sunsets and early morning beach walks, day trips to the the Everglades or Lovers Key State Park. Lots of nearby shopping choices available. We enjoyed the nearby dining of Joe's Diner and the Patio Café along with several options at Mercato. For biking we recommend the Trek Store nearby and riding through the Pelican Bay community. We had a great stay! ##### Joe F. Stayed 28 nights in Jan 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### emma w. 3 Feb 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great Vacation House We rented for the month of January for our family of 4 as a vacation/work remotely getaway. The house was the perfect size for the 4 of us to work remotely without getting in each other's way. The kitchen has double doors that open to a screened in porch, which provides a nice bit of extra space. The house is about a 15 minute walk to Vanderbelt Beach or a 5 minute bike ride, which were provided by the owners. We walked to the beach with the dog several times for sunset. The house has a large backyard, which we used nightly to eat outside. It's a mile walk to Mercato outdoor mall and restaurant area. We had happy hour at several places and shopped at the Whole Foods. The owners are very nice and super responsive. I would highly recommend this house and would happily rent again next year. ##### emma w. Stayed 30 nights in Jan 2021 ---
