Lovely property
All great with the house and wider facilities. Wi-Fi vet slow but that would be the only small issue. Location is quite a distance from Clearwater so bear in mind. We misread the listing and assumed that 3 of the bedrooms had their own shower. One en suite. 1 main bathroom and 1 downstairs toilet. Would recommend staying here.

Great Stay
We had a great stay at this house. The pool and outdoor area is great and the house is the perfect size for a large family. We had a few things pop up but the host fully addressed our concerns as quickly as possible. Couldn’t ask for anything less in a rental. Recommend.
