Best Backyard in Orlando!
Great communication with the owners, the property was clean, the bedrooms had great themes/vibes, accommodated my whole family well, but the best part is the amazing backyard! The backyard has a very nice pool, sand/beach area to lay out, cornhole boards, billiards with soccer balls, bowling, turf yard, and your own private mini golf! We all enjoyed hanging out in the backyard and playing games. I would definitely recommend if you’re looking for a fun place to stay in Orlando.

Perfect for our group
The 9 of us (6 seniors) thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The seniors loved the layout (no stairs, one big common area, and patio plus pool) We were able to cook our meals easily and had plenty of space to eat together. Just a short drive to Animal Kingdom and Epcot. GreatWe didn't go to universal en closer.

Fun place
We enjoyed our vacation. You can tell the owners have made every effort to make this a fun and comfortable place to stay. We liked that it was close to Universal Studios and lots of restaurants. The pool was nice and refreshing after the heat of the day. House was well stocked. Would recommend staying here. The owner was excellent at communicating when I had questions.

Nice house, fun backyard
Several of us stayed at this house while we were attending a conference in Orlando. Overall the house was in good shape, the pool area was nice, and the backyard was a fun addition. We didn't really use the mini-golf or anything, but it's clear it would be fun especially if you have kids or had more downtime than we had.
It would have been great to have the pool heated even just a little bit though. It was rather cold, even for being in Florida.

Fun spot to stay
House is great and comfortable with a fantastic backyard for family entertainment. Neighborhood is very old, but convenient to Universal, shopping and restaurants. Hot water was an issue as we kept running out. Overall, cool place though!

So Close to Universal!
We needed somewhere to spend the weekend to celebrate my son’s 16th birthday. He brought 5 friends and I brought my other children. The location was minutes to Universal so I could drop the boys all off and spend the rest of the day at the house cooking (amazing kitchen utensils) while my other kids got to enjoy the plethora of outdoor activities. The boys spent their time in the evenings in the backyard playing mini golf and bowling. The lights in the pool changed colors and the waterfall was a hit. The boys all camped out in the huge room with bunk beds hanging from the ceiling. The owner was very quick to respond with any questions during our stay. One for the memory books!

Great house, great location
This was a really nice property. You can tell everything was recently renovated, and the house was in a great location to hit Universal Studios, the Disney parks, and lots of stores and restaurants. There was plenty of space for each member of the family, and the pool and back yard were great to relax in after the craziness of the parks. I would highly recommend it!

Great location, quiet neighborhood
This house is just fun. From the quirky decor, to the plethora of outdoor activities available, you’ll have more than you need to keep you entertained. Quiet neighborhood. (So keep that in mind if you have a rowdy bunch.) The location was great. Super close to Universal, restaurants & groceries. Really appreciated the reverse osmosis water filter at the sink. Basic condiments and supplies on hand. Would stay again for sure. Owners were quick with communications. My only suggestion was that they could have used a few more bath towels.

Work Conference Perfection
We had six adult males share this property for a convention we had at the Loews hotel a couple of miles away. The three private bedrooms and fourth shared room were perfect. The backyard was awesome and I wish we could have enjoyed it more, but we were too busy with work. I could easily see myself booking this for my extended family as well - grandparents could stay in the master, two sets of parents could stay in the other private rooms, and all of the kids/cousins could stay in the shared room. Highly recommend.

Location.. in relation to universal
What a great property. We weren't here long, just a weekend but the house was spotless. Recently renovated with all modern appliances. The pool was too chilly to swim in so that was our only disappointment. We spent most of our time at universal so not much time to enjoy all that it offered but there are a ton of outdoor activities for family or friends fun. Would recommend it to anyone and will likely stay again.

Great Stay in Orlando
Every year my family and I travel to Orlando for trade shows with our kids. The home was within 10-15 minutes of the convention center and approx 8 minutes drive to Universal. The home itself is EXACTLY as described and the photos are accurate .
My kids had a great time playing the backyard and staying in the various bunk beds . Plenty of space for us all to spread out . The home seems to have been recently renovated as it was super clean, organized and stylish . This is also a great home for multiple families traveling together or a work team traveling together for trade shows .
All in all I highly recommend this home for anyone who wants to be close to Universal or Orange County Convention Center . Anything you need is within 10 minutes and the neighborhood is very safe . We can't wait to come back !
