Great Stay!

We needed a place to recover when we weren't melting faces at Bikefest in Leesburg. This beautiful house was probably very peaceful before we came and again now that we're gone. The heated pool was nice to relax in after a long day of entertaining the masses and that beautiful kitchen was stocked with everything we needed to cook up a few meals to share with our groupies (wives) or whatever. Would highly recommend and will seek this place out if we return to rock out next year!!

Lovely Home

We stayed 6 nights and really enjoyed this home. This home has the perfect size pool for your little ones and a lovely dock to fish and drink coffee while watching the sun rise! (I especially appreciated the extra door locks on the back doors that are out of reach of small children!) Kitchen was well equipped and we loved the living room area! During our stay, we enjoyed renting a boat and exploring the lakes and being able to stop by the house whenever needed because of the dock at the house. This home is 50 minutes from Orlando in a quiet neighborhood. The homes in the neighborhood are not the most manicured/polished but don’t let that scare you away from enjoying this home!

Destination Wedding/Family Getaway

My family of five came to Tavares, Florida to attend a wedding. We decided to extend our stay and in doing so, looked into a home rental versus staying at a hotel. I stumbled on this delightful home which fit all of our needs for space, comfort, and location close to the wedding venue and our friends home. This home was comfortable and well appointed. The kitchen and bathrooms were fully stocked with everything we needed. During our stay, we had the opportunity to fish off the dock and relax in the pool area. We also took a short ride into Mount Dora one evening for a delightful dinner. Check in/check out was seamless and owner was quick to respond to any questions I had about the accommodations. The only problem was with the comfort of the sofa bed, but we were able to address it by using the air mattress instead. I would highly recommend this home and would not hesitate to return.

Cozy and comfortable

There are so many things to say about how great this rental was for our long weekend away. First, we rent houses a lot and this was by far the best decorated and most comfortable house we’ve ever stayed in. I loved all the detail like the wall mural upstairs in our daughter’s room, the butcher block counters, and cute pull handles on the kitchen cabinets. We did not have the best weather so the fireplace kept us very cozy. We brought our boat and were able to cruise the canals around the house. My husband loved the dock in the backyard. There is a boat ramp super close. The lakes were a little too windy and cold this particular weekend but we still had a blast. We tried to book again in March but the house is completed booked. We will be back.

Loved the house, plenty of parking for the bass boats, great location to take off from the dock to fish Harris chain of lakes. Great amenities for our stay. Plenty of pans & supplies, and a good working grill to cook on the nights we choose to stay in. Hope to be able to rent this place again for our next fishing/vacation trip. p.s. Pool was nice & warm too

The property was very clean and had the needed amenities. The family enjoyed fishing off the pier. If the weather was warm enough, we would have enjoyed the pool. The property provided fishing poles and swim toys. The neighborhood was quiet and close to a general store and grocery store.

Sweet surprise!

My friends and I went to Mount Dora to celebrate a birthday. This lovely house was sweet; so tastefully decorated and homey! We would have been happy to stay at the property all day because it was so comfortable…everything needed was there and the beds were clean and super comfy. The Dollar General at the end of the street came in handy for a couple of forgotten items. Oh, and Mary’s Country Kitchen next door to that had really good food too! We were very satisfied and would rent this surprise gem again. Thank you, Rebecca 😊

Tasteful and peaceful.

This property was just beautiful. The pics don't do it justice. Becky was wonderful to work with. My husband and I hosted my precious mama's remaining little brother and little sister here who hadn't seen each other in over five years. We had a great time. At Becky's recommendation, we ate at Mary's restaurant down the street..the food and service was outstanding. We ate at Cody's on 4th in Mt Dora (great food), did some shopping in this adorable little town too. We took a canal/lake tour with Rusty Boat Tours...loved it! It was a blessing to make memories with my family in Becky's charming lake house. As someone who is passionate about interior design and decorating, I so appreciated all of the little details Becky poured into this home; she's got a great eye. If we get to Tavares again, we will definitely book this sweet home. Thanks for the memories, Becky! Best, Ray and Steph fr Chicagoland
