Map & Owner's Profile
Emerald Retreat, Beautiful 4 Bedroom Lakeside Home
Year Purchased: 2007
Why the Owner Chose River Pointe
We have been holidaying in Florida for several years but we found the relaxed and tranquil atmosphere of the Bradenton area was much more appealing than the hustle and bustle found in other areas. The Bradenton area has a lot to offer the holidaymaker whether young or old.
The Unique Benefits at this House
Home from home accommodation. The house is well presented and we like to ensure high standards are maintained. The house has everything you require to make your holiday complete. There is even things for the children including Playstation 2 and a selection of board games just incase the pool is not enough. For those who like to keep in touch with family and friends the house has wireless interrnet.

This home is gorgeous! The 4 bedrooms are very large and two of them have connecting bathrooms (a real treat for our teenage daughter). A formal living room separates the informal living room from the main master bedroom suite (yes, there are two master suites!), so there was plenty of peace and privacy for my husband and myself if the kids were up early eating breakfast or watching cartoons. I could serve dinner in the formal dining room, kitchen dining room or pool side. We had everything we needed. The pool even had solar heat, so we didn't need to pay extra for heating it. It is located in a beautiful, quiet community with pretty homes all located on various lakes. I looked forward to morning jogs because the area was so special. There was a time we needed to call the owner and the maintenance man, Joe, and they both got back with us immediately and were wonderfully helpful! Even when we left we forgot to check all drawers, and Joe was wonderful enough to call and get our belongings back to us. That's service! We loved our stay so much, we're coming back next year. Thank you for a great time.
Recommended for:Tourists without a car, sightseeing, families with young children, families with teenagers.
