Safety Harbor, Florida
The Carriage House is nestled in Old Town Safety Harbor. In 3 minutes you walk to the Pier on Tamps Bay, the Safety Harbor Resort and Spa, the Post Office and Starbucks. There are seven Restaurants within a 10 minute walk including the 'Almost Famous' Whistle Stop Grill where you will find outdoor seating , a laid back atmosphere and live music at least 3 nights per week..
The Carriage House' unique architecture and fenced back yard will make you feel like you stepped back in time..to a slower pace. ..Built in 1925 the Carriage House was originally just that- 'a carriage house 'not far from Green Springs Resort. It is the oldest wooden structure in Safety Harbor.
Step out on the brick patio for breakfast and have a drink on the wood deck at night. The bedroom is a second floor large loft with a large window to view the Bay about 100 yds away.
TV and DVD, and a full kitchen.
Guest Comment: Thank you so much for sharing your charming cottage. We felt transported to another place in time. So relaxing & peaceful. The cottage is decorated so lovely and the grounds are beautiful.
You and your husband are wonderful hosts ,looking after every detail.
Marley seems to know his role as the the 'darling dog' of The Carriage House.
Thank you for our gift dinner at your awesome restaurant Whistle Stop Grill. We loved the place so much, we found ourselves back there 3 more times!!
We look forward tour return.
Guest Comment: We had a great time at The Carriage House.
We felt so away from it all..but yet very close to everything. The back patio was our sanctuary. And within minutes we could be on Main St. downtown . The Whistle Stop Dinner was a highlight..thank you very much.
We enjoyed the bikes & Kayaks you provided and all of your great suggestions of what to do & see in the area.
We hope to come back soon.
The property is very cute, but it was not suitable for me to stay 5 days. There is no Central AC unit and the rental was terribly hot. The sleeping area is in a loft space about 20 feet up, with no cooling system of any kind to cool the loft area. All I could think was hot air rises and this isn't a good scenario during a heatwave There is a mini split in the lower level and a wall unit in the lower level, which both were incapable of getting the rental to a comfortable temperature for a 5 day stay during a heatwave. I left within 1 hour and stayed in a hotel after speaking with Dawn and she concurred the rental would not cool down to a temperature that would be suitable for me. An app on my phone showed the temp in the loft was 88 degrees, and the downstairs area temp was 83 degrees at 6 PM; the mini split was on when I arrived. There was no hope that the heat during the day would be controlled enough by the mini split to allow for a suitable temperature. 70 degrees would have been fine, but that would have happened at 3 AM and it would heat up again as soon as the sun rises. I lost a lot of money on this trip. It was nonrefundable since I had already arrived, but Dawn did send me a partial refund of $500. I learned a very costly lesson: when a listing mentions AC ask what that means. Don't assume it is Central AC, or adequate.
What a wonderful cottage situated in the lovely seaside village of Safety Harbor. The guest house is much larger than it looks in the pics and is perfect for 2 people. I highly recommend.
We thoroughly enjoyed our week at the Carriage House. It is a beautiful, spacious, very clean, light-filled and unique space, so near to the Bay and Safety Harbor, restaurants, coffee shops and parks. Dawn was amazing, immediately responsive to any questions we had, and the place itself was so welcoming. Everything we could have needed was there for us, plus the outdoor patios! We very much hope to return!
Amazing. Hosts were the absolute best. Beautiful location. Would definitely recommend.
My stay in this lovely carriage house amid Safety Harbor charm & the overwhelming hospitality shown to me by Dawn and Patrick, will remain a treasured lifetime memory. Highly recommend!
The house is quiet, very comfortable, the kitchen well equipped, and the hosts are helpful and communicative. A good base for exploring the area.
the carriage house is much more spacious than the description might lead one to believe (but not as large as it looks from the outside). The private garden is lovely in the morning. Wonderful location -- Safety Harbor is a charming community with lots of activities. Easy access to walking and biking trails, and close enough to the beach. Dawn and Patrick are congenial hosts who always go the extra mile. Hoping to return one day!
From the moment we stepped thru the door we were in love. Beautifully decorated and so comfortable. Everything we needed for a relaxing vacation. Would definitely stay here again. Thanks Dawn and Patrick for making our stay so great❤❤❤
Great!
The Carriage House was a fantastic place to anchor ourselves during our Safety Harbor visit. Ideal location for walking anywhere in SH. Even better than the pictures, it was very well equipped and comfortable, and Dawn and Patrick were wonderful friendly hosts who were quick to respond to any of our queries. The garden was a tranquil spot to relax in the evening. We would definitely consider the Carriage House again for any Safety Harbor visits. Thanks Dawn and Patrick!
