Wonderful location Sarasota

House suited our needs. Location in town was great and ideal to have a fenced yard for the dogs. We enjoyed our stay immensely and visiting friends were very pleased . Would definitely like to return.

Tear down with mold

This 1911 house has not been updated in over a hundred years. Shabby, smelly, dark. Family couldn't stay. Management company not responsive.

Premium Rental Disappointing

I rented this property for 3 weeks at a premium price but was disappointed with the cleanliness and quality of linens. The house is in a desperate need of deep cleaning and new towels and linens. Dusty cushions and carpets made it unsuitable for those with allergies. The towels, blankets and quilts were old and stained. Newer bath towels were provided later but no hand towels or facecloths were received. The porch was lovely but the wicker needed painting and cleaning, and the deck was dirty and in need of a power wash. The yard is also very overgrown needing a cleanup and pruning of plants. There is good wireless, a/c and heat and the kitchen was well-equipped. There is a monitor and VCR but no cable or streaming device - so if you want to watch TV or movies, bring your own device. Unfortunately, rodents made an appearance in week 2. The rental agency sent an exterminator but no offer of a temporary relocation or refund was made.

Excellent location

This place has everything you need for your stay. The front porch is wonderful and the rooms have enough space to be able to move around in them, which was nice. The parking on the street and having to hope that you would get a spot wasn’t ideal, but once we parked we were close enough to everything that we really didn’t need to move our car. I would definitely stay here again.
