Dated but nice!
The house was just as advertised. Very nice quiet neighborhood, pool was great. Short drive to several beaches. It was a great place to relax a few days.
The best part about this location was the pool. The house was dirty and unkept. Basic supplies like paper towels and facial tissue were missing. The appearance was nothing like the photos. The landscaping was overgrown including the sidewalk up to the house. The furniture was a hodge podge of random items. Biggest disappointment was the internet and wireless service.
This is a lovely property but it is tired. The house is cluttered with furniture at every turn. The pool area is in need of a power wash and the plants outside the cage are overgrown to the point the pool area is stuffy. Area rugs I’m sure are not cleaned between visits and master bed mattress has stains. Iron is old and black on the bottom. Outside grill is filthy as is the patio table and chairs near it.
The property is spacious, in a quiet neighborhood, near grocery stores, restaurants, and a short drive to Nokomis beach. The pool is wonderful and was my favorite part of the property. I did have some unpleasant surprises after checking in. The garbage disposal was broken, the microwave vent was held in place with duct tape, but most disturbing of all was the dishwasher. The heated dry cycle is not working, and the inside of the dishwasher had mold growing throughout. So I had to hand wash our dishes for the entire week. The house also had an odor that was something other than musty. The bed linens were frayed and torn. I am particular about the condition and cleanliness of the properties I rent and this one failed. I did reach out to the owner early in my stay and she indicated that there was nothing she would do until she physically visited the property in a few weeks. It's a shame because this house has a lot going for it but it needs a lot of TLC.
Everything you need...pool was great...10-15 minute ride to beach...plenty of great food in area...Thanks!!
If you seek peace, quiet and plenty to do within a 10 minute drive then this is the place to be! A great house with a nice pool on a cul-de-sac next to a large pond with a token gator is perfect SW Florida! A number of very good restaurants, pubs, golf courses and I almost forgot beaches are close by. Already looking forward to our return trip next year!
Our host Erin was great and really have no complaints about our stay there for 3 weeks, we had good weather in the 80's each day, the pool was great and we stayed outside in the pool area pretty much the days we were home from dust til dawn.
It was very easy to check in and out. Having everything needed for fishing was a bonus for us.
Had an absolutely wonderful time here! The kids loved the pool and beaches were very close. Would definitely stay here again. The kids said it was the best place that I have ever booked!☺️.
We swam every evening in the pool. We went both north and south to enjoy the beaches and attractions.
Beautiful home in quiet neighborhood. Close to the beaches and so many tasty restaurants. within a 10 minute drive. The house had everything we needed. Bikes, pool toys, beach chairs and towels. Had a bunch of games to play on rainy days. There was a gas grill and a charcoal grill. The pool was amazing and private, almost like we were on our own island. We spent so much time in the pool and sitting around the pool, listening to nature all around us. There was a pond out back that had turtles and so many birds. The neighborhood is a bird sanctuary. We drove to Nokomis beach every night to watch the amazing sunsets. The beaches in this area are beautiful. We have never seen such blue ocean water! Owner answered our questions quickly and recommended beaches and restaurants. Our family enjoyed our stay, it was so relaxing. Would definitely recommend this house to anyone!
We had a great time at the pool as well as relaxing around the house. The pool was clean along with the patio. The outside of the house was nicely groomed in a beautiful neighborhood. Loved that the house was stocked with board games, toys for the pool and beach chairs/umbrella and fishing rods for the dock. The kitchen was well stocked with paper towels, napkins, seasonings, coffee and other staples as well. However, the fridge was not totally cleaned out and several items were left behind for others that you may or may not want to consume. There were instructions left that the dishwasher dishes would need to self dry which was no problem but when I went to dry them I found that they were really not cleaned very well. I also came across several dishes / utensils that were put away dirty. I would recommend some updating of the dishwasher, cleaning of drapes, rugs, closet spaces to get rid of musty smell and sheets that fit the mattress well. Overall, we had a pleasant stay and enjoyed the house.
I can't say enough about how beautiful the house looks and the lakes that surrounded the property. I was hoping to see the alligator I would definitely rent the property again
