House was exactly as advertised & accommodated our group of 5 moms & 5 teen girls for a local sport event. It had all the amenities we needed (toilet paper, paper towels, bedding, towels, etc.). It is in a quiet area within a few minutes of the highway & 7-10 minutes of everything you could need (restaurants, grocery stores, etc.). Would definitely stay there again!

Our host was very communicative and helpful, especially, as one of the guests left behind a personal item that they were able to locate and return to us. The home had plenty of room for our 8 guests and the interior was in good shape. The only minor issues we found (to us) were that one bedroom had a barn door, and a couple of lights were burned out. Overall, we were very satisfied with the home and would recommend it to others.

Gator Mansion - The Perfect Stay for a Large Group

Our 12-person crew had an absolutely fantastic stay at Gator Mansion! This six-bedroom, five-bath beauty had more than enough space to comfortably support all of us—no one ever felt cramped or short on room. The layout was ideal, and the A/C was a total lifesaver—cool and crisp on both floors, even in that signature hot and humid Central Florida weather.The kitchen was a dream for our group meals—fully stocked with everything we needed to whip up breakfast and dinner with ease. Every bathroom was clean, well-kept, and super convenient for such a large group. No waiting in line, no awkward scheduling—just smooth sailing.We also brought a couple of furry friends along, and the property was spacious enough to give them some great little walks and outdoor time, which we really appreciated.Highly recommend Gator Mansion if you’re rolling deep and want comfort, space, and cool vibes all under one roof. We’d definitely stay here again!

Lovely Home with Ample Space for Family

We recently stayed at this property and had a pleasant experience overall. The house is spacious and comfortably accommodated our family members. The layout is great for spending quality time together, and the amenities provided were sufficient for our needs. There were a few minor issues we encountered during our stay. Upon arrival, we noticed that the couch was broken and a wall plate in one of the upstairs bedrooms was damaged. We promptly notified the property manager about these issues, and they were responsive to our concerns. Additionally, there was some dirt under the furniture, which we believe is something the property manager can address with the cleaning team. On the morning of our checkout, there was an unfortunate mix-up with the checkout date, and the alarm was accidentally set, waking us up at 7 am. While this was inconvenient, we understand that mistakes happen and appreciated the property manager’s attentiveness. Despite these hiccups, the property served as a wonderful home base for our family getaway, and we would recommend it to others.

Great House to Accommodate Large Family

We rented this house and the adjacent cottage for a recent family event in the area. We had a total of 13 people ranging in age from one to ninety. Everyone was very comfortably accommodated. The houses are comfortably and thoughtfully furnished. Communication with the host was easy. I highly recommend this rental for anyone with a large group to accommodate.

Family Wedding Trip

This was a perfect fit for our large extended family. By renting this home and the 2-bedroom guest cottage next door there was plenty of beds and bathrooms for all. Location was perfect for the Wedding we were attending in Sanford and the other activities in Oviedo. Plus, it was only about a half hour drive to the Orlando Airport and Sea World. House was very clean and comfortable. We ate at the restaurant and also went on the Airboat ride which are adjacent. Would fully recommend.

Weekend stay

The property was a little way off a main road so it was quiet but a bit secluded. The lower level was an open living, dining, kitchen with 2 bedrooms and bath. Upper level had 4 bedrooms 2 with their own bathroom and 2 with a shared bath. If toy have a large group that needs to get ready for an event at the same time it works well. The beds were ok and the pillows were just awful, bring your own if you can. There was one very large TV with local channels in the living area. Parking was limited to 4 vehicles. The property was fine for a short stay.
