Great place, great owner
We stayed here for our annual Christmas with our Sarasota family. We put up a Christmas tree and had Christmas dinner for seven, which was a good time and a good meal for all. We had a minor problem with the heating (remember how cold it was Christmas 2022 everywhere) and the owner came on Christmas Eve to correct the problem, even though we told him it was unnecessary, and it could wait till after Christmas. We were quite impressed with his concern with our welfare. All and all, it was a good house and a great experience.

Very comfortable place
This place was good everything worked.
One of the plugs in the kitchen didn’t seem to work and the light switches were manual on/off via pull chain in the bedrooms.
Very well stocked for anything you need.
Quiet at night.

Simply delightful
The two bedroom, one bath accomodation was perfect for two or three of us for the weekend. Beautifully appointed in calming colours, the beds and couches were comfy and welcoming. We especially enjoyed the private backyard sitting area. The location is great for exploring so many interesting local attractions. Laid back and homey feeling of the place helped us to rest and regenerate. I will definitely like to return to this little haven.
