Entire home, Heated Pool, Lake view and Gazebo!

10/10 Excellent

"A lovely home for a perfect family vacation, everything we needed. Cozy clean comfy! Conveniently located near many fun parks and activities. We would highly recommend to anyone and hope to revisit again soon!"

SUNCITY CENTER HOUSE WITH GORGEOUS LAKE VIEW.

10/10 Excellent

"We had a great stay! The house was clean and well supplied with plenty of room for us to all comfortably sit to watch tv and play games of an evening. The kitchen is spacious with an island. It was the perfect location for us and the neighborhood was lovely. The neighborhood pool was refreshing. The host gave recommendations of things to do and places to eat. We chose the German restaurant that was recommended which was fantastic! We had a bit of trouble with the lighting in the home at times but wasn’t anything we couldn’t figure out. We had to get the step stool (provided) to reach the chains on the ceiling fans to turn on/off lights. I would recommend more lamps in kids room and living room. The home is very tech forward with monitors and Alexa devices. Overall a great stay and would recommend."

2 story comfort beautiful home with all amenities you need!!

8/10 Good

"I had a very positive experience staying at this home. The house was clean upon arrival, and each room was thoughtfully arranged, making the space comfortable and welcoming. The host was very thorough with communication, providing clear instructions and responding promptly whenever needed.While the home could benefit from some cosmetic updates, such as fresh paint in certain areas, it was still a comfortable and enjoyable place to stay. The cleanliness, organization, and overall atmosphere more than made up for the minor maintenance concerns.I would definitely stay here again in the future and appreciate the effort the host puts into ensuring guests have a pleasant experience. Overall, I would recommend this property to others looking for a clean, well-organized home with a responsive and attentive host."
