Great Experience

Property was in amazing condition, very modern and comfortable. Pictures do not do it full justice. Location is a few miles from major shopping and an abundance of restaurants. Great proximity to Eustis, Mt Dora and The Villages. I enjoyed my stay immensely.

Great property & location!

We were in town for the Bassmaster HS/Jr Series tournament on Harris Chain. This house was nearly right across the street from the Tavares Launch on Eustis and a quick drive to Venetian Gardens. With a great open layout, we had plenty of space to spread out after the boys had been on the water all day. It was clean and comfortable as well as tastefully decorated. (I don’t like places that are cluttered!) It’s also just a few minutes to the waterfront in downtown Tavares where there are several great places to eat. We would definitely stay here again in the future.

Tavares Get Away

Beautiful roomy kitchen, living room and baths. Master bedroom had a very creaky bed but the mattress was decent. It would be helpful if there were night lights in both bathrooms. Also, unable to control thermostat. Was a bit warm for us. Other than that, well stocked kitchen and everything was clean and in working order.

Great Home Away from Home

This is a lovely, spacious, comfortable home. My family really enjoyed the modern updates and clean lines throughout. Tavares is in the middle of all the abundant outdoor activities and spectacular views Lake County has to offer. F.Y.I. it's called Lake County for a reason :)
