Fully remodeled and furnished in 2022 2BR/2BA early 1900's Florida "Cracker Shack." Surrounded by towering oaks, cypress trees, and an on-property paddleboard/kayak launch leading to Lake Wastena. Private gated entrance with separate parking for guests leads to a recently built wraparound porch equipped with a grill, Edison lights and outdoor furniture. Fully furnished kitchen, living room, and bedrooms. Fenced yard for pets and three friendly horses on property that LOVE treats, fenced separately. If you're in town for an event at The Barn at Crescent Lake/McMicky's Farm, it's a 5 minute walk or a quick drive right down our street as they're roughly 5-properties down from us. Our neighborhood is very quiet with most homes on several acres and beyond friendly neighbors. This home offers a quiet "Country" feel while being close to nearly everything. SR54 is right down the road with new restaurants, shops, and entertainment opening daily. We're roughly 20 minutes from Tampa International Airport and 25-30 minutes to the beaches in Tarpon Springs, Palm Harbor, and Dunedin. ## Property amenities ### Internet - Available in the cottage: Free WiFi ### Parking and transport -

We just needed a place to crash and be able to cook our own meals and this by far exceeded expectations! We arrived to farm fresh eggs and even wine from the owners. In the morning we met the horses and fed them the carrots that were in the fridge. We had enough space to host dinner for other out of town family, which was a great way to relax and catch up with everyone. Everything was clean and comfy. Such a great getaway! ##### Lisa P.

Short drive to Tampa riverwalk,Tarpon Springs and Honeymoon Island.There are nature preserves nearby if you're into hiking. The three horses are very friendly and will expect a treat if they see you outside. The only negative was a sulfur odor when showering so maybe the well needs a new filter? Not a big deal but some people may be sensitive to it. ##### Dan B.

We hosted a 4 day training in Trinity and needed the evenings to debrief and unwind after each long day. It was absolute peace. Each evening we were greeted by the beautiful and friendly horses at the gate. The hosts made sure we had some snacks to feed them, and we had farm fresh eggs waiting for us inside! The house was super cozy and clean, tucked away on land away from the hustle and bustle of the city, yet close to plenty amenities for food and shopping if needed. We appreciated that it was dog friendly. Next time we visit we will stay here again. ##### Janel N.

Super quiet (ok, cicadas excepted) and very comfortable. And the horses were so much fun! They definitely will not say no to a carrot or horsie treat. The high point for us was hearing a high-pitched whinny and watching the large draft horse (Luke) gallop across the field to indulge in carrots and pets. Dave is very communicative and ensured our stay was optimal and that we had everything we needed. Greatly appreciated. And the farm-fresh eggs made for tasty breakfast during our time in Florida. Highly recommend (ok, maybe not tooooooo highly because we might want to book here again and can't if everyone else books). ##### Sandra S.

We loved our stay. You may want to replenish the horse treats because my wife and I enjoyed feeding and spoiling them lol. ##### Luke J.
