We have left your home. Had a lovely time.I would only make one suggestion. It would be helpful for luggage racks or benches to placeOur luggage. We are in our 70s and bending on the floor was a bit difficult.

Having previously been to Tarpon Springs with our camper we decided to stay in town and found this listing. In every way it out performs! We only needed one bedroom and the bed was wonderful. The two other bedrooms were equally lovely and well laid out. The interior is spotless and beautiful! Parking in the driveway a pleasure! Out the front door make a left and another left at the corner onto Athens street and 2 shirt blocks brings you to the harbor! 5 minute walk! Visiting Tarpon? We highly recommend you don’t think twice but secure this perfect 10!

Outstanding from start to finish. Extremely clean. Quiet and safe neighborhood. Tasteful coastal decor, brand new furniture and mid to higher range appliances, walking distance to all that the sponge docks district has to offer. Fully equipped kitchen for meals at home. Also just a short drive to nearby beaches and adjacent fun towns like Dunedin and Clearwater to the south and Weekie watchee to the north. The host was very responsive at any hour and accommodating to requests/questions. Really no suggestions for improvement. Would stay again whenever we are going to be in the area. Two thumbs up!
