Wow, this property is amazing. I was tasked with finding a place for my group of old military dudes guys trip. The guys could not believe it. In fact we are planning another trip at this same location in the near future. Plenty of space, and so much to do. Loved the tiki hut, and pool and hot tub. The media room was the star of the show, with its 85" TV and sound system plus pool table and game console. Thanks Jen Henry for sharing your beautiful home.

Great return stay with thoughtful touches! We truly enjoyed our return stay and were grateful for how accommodating and flexible our host Jennifer was throughout our visit. It was special to come back and create new family memories in a place that already felt familiar and welcoming. As pet lovers, we specially appreciated the many dog-friendly details around the home-it was clear it was thoughtfully designed with pets in mind, which made our stay even more enjoyable.The property met our needs once again. There were a few housekeeping areas that could be improved, and it wad evident our host was already in the process of addressing them, which we appreciated! We will gladly return for a future stay

This place was amazing - we didn't want to leave. Everyone thanked me for finding it. It is truly an Oasis - the backyard and pool are stunning. We were a group of 12 staying there to attend the Patriots/Bucs game (and yes, Pats won!) and there was plenty of room for everyone. Our host Jen was amazing! She was very responsive to any questions/needs we had and went above and beyond to make sure we enjoyed our stay. I have already recommended the house to friends and would definitely go back.

The pool is amazing! It makes the place! We had a group of 12 and others join to swim during the day and people had a hard time leaving the pool. The temperature was perfect, the grotto was awesome, and the waterfall was icing on the cake. Jen was very accommodating and always super responsive. The house had everything you would need and plenty of room to hang out. We enjoyed the entertainment room and visiting the neighbor pig. It was a peaceful house and beautiful as well. The only reason we wouldn’t give this place five stars is the comfort of the beds. The beds were very firm and the one sofa bed mattress was difficult to pull out and felt like there was no padding left on the mattress. Other than that, we had a great time, had plenty of room and were happy dogs were welcome as well.

We had the time of our lives here for a guys weekend getaway. Jennifer’s property was exactly what we hoped it would be and more. The pictures don’t do it justice. What really stood out is when the little things popped up like having issues with the lock code, questions about the AC upstairs, etc Jennifer was incredibly responsive. She’s an A host. I have extended family that loves to travel and I’d absolutely recommend we look at this place in the future. Thank you for such an amazing weekend, Jennifer.

Incredible!

This place is heaven on earth. Oasis is the right word. The house is incredible and well equipped and the pool is out of this world. Do be warned that with the pool heated plus the sun, it was hovering around 94 degrees the whole time. We really enjoyed it in the evenings but it was too hot during the day. Kitchen was lovely. Communicating with the host was fast and easy! I hope to return someday!

Great get away house!!

We loved this house, it had so much for our kids to do, some sports equipment could be updated, but what they had still worked for them. Everyone enjoyed the fabulous pool. We enjoyed quite time at the lake looking for crocs (but never saw any) were going to miss the sweet little pig who we named “piggie”. The owners are very quick to respond with any questions or.concerns. And we’re very nice to talk to. Even Tom was a great help and great to talk to as well. If I had one bad thing to say it would be the outdoor bar area needs to be spiffed up some, I was afraid of spiders in the one room where pool toys are in. Also pool chemicals were in there and I didn’t want my grandkids near them. The tiki hut needed to be a bit more modernized, kind of dirty. If we were back in the area we would stay again for such thank you for everything!!
