IF YOU DO NOT SEE YOUR DATES AVAILABLE, PLEASE SEND A MESSAGE! We may have some flexibility in our calendar.

The 850sf cottage is on the 2nd floor above the garage in a detached building from the main house. There is a flight of stairs behind the outside door, and another lockable door at the top of the stairs. We are open to longer term stays; please inquire via the message string.

This place is a real gem. Perfect for my wife and I. Our intent was to stay and visit our grandson, who lived 8 minutes from us. We cooked a few home grown meals while there and kitchen was well stocked. it was clean, cozy and comfortable. I’m sure his mom and dad will be inquiring about this place for future visits. The owner was super friendly and answered all our inquiries quickly. You can’t go wrong with his place.

UT College move in. Weekend stay.

This was the very first rental property we stayed at when we first came to Tampa 2 years ago to move our daughter into U.T. and it set the standard for us. It is a beautiful home in a safe, quiet, beautiful neighborhood. Walking distance to Bayshore Rd and several fine restaurants nearby. University of Tampa is only a few minutes away. I highly recommend this property. Devin and Pam are great hosts.

Perfection

Our first stay in the area since our son moved down to Tampa. So clean, comfortable beds, amenities are top level.. and we easily walked around the corner and had a choice of restaurants. I worked out daily and felt save on the sidewalks at all times. I cannot say enough about this place and the owners. We will be back!
