The house was quiet, super clean and comfortable. It has everything needed for a relaxing stay. The back yard needs a little work because there is no actual grass but all in all the house is amazing. I would definitely stay again.

5/5 Stars – A Perfect Home Away From Home!

We chose this property for its convenient location near Moffitt Ruskin, but we’ll be returning for so much more—the beautiful accommodations and the incredibly kind, accommodating hosts. The home’s layout was ideal, with spacious rooms that allowed me to move comfortably using my walker after surgery. The beds were wonderfully cozy, ensuring restful nights, and the neighborhood was peaceful and friendly, making us feel safe and right at home. This was more than just a rental—it was a welcoming retreat during a challenging time. We highly recommend staying here and look forward to returning!

Beautiful place to stay!

My family had a wonderful time at this property for two weeks. Our host was very thoughtful in trying to meet our needs for our stay by leaving games for our kids, and even leaving food and toys for our cat! Owner is quick and responsive as well. The home itself is beautiful as well and very comfortably set up for everyone. Highly recommended.

our stay in Ruskin FL

Updated 3-2 home in Ruskin FL. Plenty of amenities. Not too bad to get to from Interstate 75. Quite a bit of construction going on in the area. All of the home functions worked well and we had no problems. We would stay there again if we are in that area.
