Perfect location. Spectacular house. Great host. Would definitely stay again
Very beautiful house plenty of space plenty of bed space there were only six of us and clearly could have been another 6 or 10 with no problem. Very clean updated and just a great quiet location.
It is a great location, with a large lot. Quite noisy road, as people kind of race late at night. Loved being able to walk to Lake Hollingsworth. There were 5 adults, and two bathrooms. We didn't like that the only downstairs bathroom, was in the bedroom.This bath very small.this bedroom had a unit which was very noisy. Many of the lights did not work, and some of them not working were becasue of a fuse problem. The ones in the stairway and all the lights in the Master.The maintanance people came over right away, and had to return the next day, to replace fuse becasue lights went out again on stairway and the master, which was dangerous to walk on dark brown stairs in the dark on. They had to replace about 10 lights that were burned out and still needed more new light bulls. We didn't want a third interuptions to get more bulbs.We changed the floor air filter, as it was black and filthy. I felt like the house with as many of lights burned out was a major inconvenience since we had our daughter sleeping having flown in from the West coast and workers there changing lights bulb and checking breakers. The kitchen was small but functional for breakfast. The Master was upstairs and shared the bath with two other bedrooms upstairs, and you had to walk thru one bedroom to get to the smaller bedroom, which would be awkward, if people weren't family. For us, it was not a problem, as we didn't need the 4th bedroom.
Hosted family for a funeral. Space was great
Our stay, during a hurricane admittedly, was both good and bad. The good is that this is a nice location, the beds were very nice and very comfortable, the showers were decent, and the AC worked well. The bad is that there was no microwave and no grill, a very small tight kitchen that is dark and hard to work in, no powder room (just a bathroom hidden back by the downstairs bedroom), and--probably 99% responsible for my moderate overall 3 star review-- we had an unwanted guest,: a rat. There were noises in the walls of the downstairs bedroom as well (probably mice or rats). Keep in mind this was a hurricane. I have no idea if the rodents were simply driven in by the rain/wind, or if they were already guests. Anthony was responsive and offered a free additional night's stay at a different home, which was appreciated, but we decided to just get back to our own home. Overall, I think the place is OK and it has its nice factors (as mentioned), but it definitely could use a microwave, a grill, and a careful look by pest control. I suspect and trust that the owner is on this for future guests.
Beautiful home!
We visited for a conference and we so pleased to be so close to Florida Southern. The house was beautiful and well-maintained. There was plenty of space for us to relax and unwind after sessions. The hosts were responsive and welcoming.
Loved the kitchen amenities, huge laundry room and sleeping options for our large group of 11.
We had a great stay in this Lake Hollingsworth home. Anthony was a fantastic host. This was a great property for us. We were centrally located, and yet in a very quiet part of Lakeland. The large rooms and big yard were great for all of us to hang out. We will definitely check availability of this home on future trips to Lakeland.
Four moms and their daughters came to Lakeland for a girls week-end and this property was perfect for our trip. It was in a great location -- convenient to everything we wanted to do -- was well stocked, had great bathrooms, the beds were super comfortable, and the common areas were roomy. Everyone enjoyed the house and we would love to stay there agin.
