Fan needed. But very comfortable house

The house was nice. Big and comfortable. A little mix of styles. The pool table in the garage was damaged and when hitting a ball all rolled back to center. So that was not fun. But the pool was nice, it was deep and large enough to all enjoy. The fan in the porch only had one speed sloooooow. Not enjoyable in Florida's summer. The pool lools like it needs some tile repair on the inside. Again house was so comfortable and owner left some pool toys, beach items and bikes available.

Spacious lovely home.

Great place to stay. Quiet area, close to stores (5 Minutes), close to beach (10-15 min). The home was relaxing, the pool for us was heated and lovely. The house had knats. We just kept everything put away and placed trash can in garage. Master bed was flat on the ends. 2nd bedroom had great beds. Beautiful home at a reasonable price. Fun with bikes. Pool table lopsided.

Absolutely loved staying at this property! Felt like home :) We rented this house for our vacation, and we spent half of our time there just swimming in the pool. House is exactly as pictured.... has a pool table/ping pong in the garage, and Mike was easy to contact as needed. We felt safe, it was quiet, clean, and perfect for our getaway. Would definitely stay here again!!!

Very pleased.

We had a wonderful time, it was clean and neat. The location is is good, about fifteen minutes to the center of Port Charlotte or the beaches. The one thing that concerned me was the pool not being heated but, it was warmer than the pool we left in Cape Coral that was heated.
