Additionally, they've included helpful touches like ample charging ports, plenty of towels and toiletries, and a detailed guide so that you'll be able to find the answer to just about any question you have.I would definitely stay here again, and I recommend this house to anyone visiting the Fort Lauderdale area!

Wonderful stay!

My family and I loved our stay here! If anything, the pictures and description are modest compared to how lovely the home is! The pool was so refreshing and clean and the lake was incredible. There were so many friendly lizards, iguanas and birds around the property that were so fun to watch! The screened in porch area was always well shaded and cool. The beds were very comfortable and there were plenty of towels for use. The sunsets shown in the pictures are nightly! We couldn’t be happier with our stay. Thank you!!

Great stay!

What a relaxing get away, can’t beat the view and privacy! Lots of amenities provided, which was a welcomed surprise! My only advice is to remember you’re staying by a lake in Florida… don’t be like me and forget that comes with bugs. Other than a few jumpscares from nature, this was a perfect stay!

The house and surrounding property were as described and reviewed - delightful! Charming Florida home with pool overlooking lake. Screened in porch at back of the house was a treasured gathering spot. The house was well kept and stocked with everything we needed to enjoy our visit. Communication with the host was excellent.

A little piece of paradise!

We had a family get-together for 6 days, starting on Thanksgiving Day. Loved the proximity to the airport....we were there in minutes. Ann and John allowed us early check-in which made it easy for us to get in and settled. We had perfect weather (80's every day) and the pool was the perfect temperature. We avoided eating out for 6 days, as we had everything we needed to make breakfasts and dinners in the kitchen. We spent most of our time outside, either at the pool or in the screened porch. Loved the lake and the wildlife, and watching the waterskiing. The iguanas were cool...they like basking in the sun on the pool concrete, but are peaceful and don't care much if you're swimming. Beds and sheets were amazing. We all said they were better than most expensive hotels we've been to. Overall, I'd recommend this place to anyone. It's not new...not fancy... but if you're looking for a spacious place for 4 (or more if you use the rollaway bed or pull-out sofa) it's perfect. Nice quiet neighborhood that feels safe. Thanks for a great getaway!

Beautiful escape in a unique place

We really enjoyed Ann’s quiet oasis by the lake. Everything you need is there from fishing poles to beach chairs to tennis rackets. Lots of towels and comfortable beds and linens. There is washer & dryer to help if you want to pack lighter and redo outfits. Roku tv in living room was so nice. The pool was lots of fun and the lizards who visit the yard daily were so fun to watch. Easy check in and check out and thanks so much to Ann for allowing a flexible check out. That meant so much to us and proves she cares about the people who stay with her and their needs. We highly recommend this stay for you and your family.

Perfect family getaway!

This property is perfect for a family getaway! Our group ranged from 8 years old to 88 years old and everyone loved the house! We stayed for almost 3 weeks and not once did anyone get tired of being at this house. It is extremely spacious and well stocked. My children were in love with the pool and hot tub from the moment they got there and my mom loved being able to fish every evening! My grandmother enjoyed sitting in the enclosed patio all day watching the iguanas and birds. Ann is also such an amazing host, extremely responsive and friendly, the perfect balance of a host who makes sure everything is good without hovering. I 100000% recommend this property, especially for families.
