Jen met us at the property upon arrival, and Eric joined us later. Jen gave us a tour of the property and answered any questions we had. While we were touring the property, Jen noticed the water in the hot tub was low, so she filled it immediately. Eric quickly gathered firewood for the outdoor fire pit and repaired a minor toilet.The hosts provided clear instructions for check-in and checkout procedures. The house was stocked with many essential items, such as paper products, soaps, shampoo/condtioner, and linens. We also enjoyed the outdoor spaces, the board games. and pool table. The neighborhood was mostly quiet with some passing through traffic, with sidewalks which were great for walks to the nearby park. The neighbors were friendly and welcoming. CVS was the closest store and it was within walking distance. We had to drive to other stores and to restaurants, which were 10-15 minutes or more away, depending on traffic. If you have the opportunity to stay in the Tampa area, this property is definitely worth it! It met all of our family needs and more. ##### JOSEPH T.
