Our home away from home!
Jason, thank you so much for an amazing vacation. Your home feels like home for us. You provided everything we needed. The house is so clean and organized. You were so quick to respond to our messages. We can't thank you enough for allowing us to stay here. We look forward to our next adventure there and we give you five stars all the way around. Also, your cleaning crew is absolutely amazing! They showed up at least 15 minutes early, parked across the street and waited on us. They recognized us from our last trip and were so kind to us. Thank you again!

Long weekend stay
House is great! Thoughtfully decorated, kids loved the themed rooms - Harry Potter and toy story. We didn't use the stroller but nice to know it's there and can be used, same with the BBQ. We have stayed at probably a dozen other houses in storey lake and this is the first one that feels like a house people live in. Cozy and nice. Garage game room was my 7 year old's favorite. Pool/whirlpool heat didn't seem to be working, but owner refunded the payment. Wifi worked well and was fast. Owners responsive to questions. Would definitely stay again!

In a nice neighborhood close to the attractions
The house was very nice. It was super big and it was close to everything that we needed to go to. We did a Disney trip this time and we didn’t have to drive very far. It is very spacious and it was clean and it was even quiet, even though there are neighbors all around. It was a nice subdivision.
I guess the only thing is we are excited about the pool, but didn’t realize that you had to pay extra to get it heated so we are a little disappointing with that. But it was a very nice day we would stay again.

Nice Property
The property’s location is really close to most activities in Orlando and pretty close to the club house and pool area as well. The house as far as rooms and bathrooms where very clean, the home can use a fresh coat of paint though.The pool was only used the first day do to the fact that it was green the rest of the trip. Communication with the property manager/owner was quick and sufficient but did not resolve the pool issue and the grandkids where disappointed for sure. The grill needs some cleaning as well and was leaking greasy stuff onto the deck by the pool and on the wall. The pool area defiantly could use some TLC. The kitchen was well equipped but could not find dish towels. The bedrooms are large and will serve a large group well. The garage has games for teens which my grandkids enjoyed but was a little hot to be in there for long periods of time. With everything remedied you could really enjoy this home.

Great Trip
Loved this property the house was wonderful. The only issue was pool spa side was a little too close to other house. It would have been nice to have some privacy plants or shades in between houses.
When we were in the pool you could talk to neighbor like they were in your area.
I also wished there was a chair in vanity space upstairs master bath, but other then that it was awesome. We had a light issue in kitchen, but owner was aware and responded to me very quickly. Lazy river was great as well. Overall wonderful home.

Exceeded expectations!
We had a perfect stay at Potter’s Place! The kids loved the themed rooms, game room, and pool. The house was spacious and well stocked with blankets, pillows, towels, and everything we needed to cook meals. The hideaway club pool was perfect for low-key afternoons and the location was close to Disney (15 - 20 minutes). Check-in and out was easy and convenient and the owners kept all the necessary information organized and easily accessible. Thanks for a great stay!!

Nice and quiet
Communication with Jason was amazing he was quick to answer any questions you needed answered.
We loved the place especially since it has a pool and you didn’t have to worry about a crowd.
The bedrooms were very comfortable and with a big family its very roomy. We will definitely be back.
