  The location of this property is perfect - close to shopping & Disney. Everything is approximately 20 mins ( that includes traffic). The Terra Verde Resort is fabulous we really enjoyed the pool and the treats at the bar. I would recommend the yummy MilkShakes.

  This house was a great place for our family vacation. The house was everything I expected. We called the management company and they were very helpful and knowledgable. The house location on the gated property was the best. What a fun place. Mary Ann was wonderful to work with (1 year + in planning). Thanks to all!

  This house is wonderful. My family was delighted. It's comfortable, has great localization and everything was very clean. We were 16 people and had a wonderful holiday close to all attractions. At night we had a beautiful view of the lake with its beautiful fountain. My kids want to return next year and God willing I am sure we will return. I recommend this house for those who want to spend a wonderful holiday with your family.

  Thank you for renting your home to my family (10 of us). Everything went well and we really enjoyed the spacious and relaxing stay. The home is very nice and well maintained. The location to the club house and parks were great. We did enjoy the view of the lake and the many wildlife visitors. The alligator was a hit with my kids. Luckily it was not too large yet. Thanks again. I will be sure to recommend your home.

  I want to thank you for allowing us to rent your home. It was awesome; it was beyond comfort, clean and gorgeous. The house was very spacious and had more than enough room for our large group. The home and all of its attractive décor was very captivating. It was a real vacation for the older ones in my group we stayed home and enjoyed the home and all of its beauty. My day started sitting around the pool viewing the lake and ended the same way each day. I am very happy we selected your home. Thanks for hanging in with me I did not know what to expect. I lived in fear of being disappointed. No need however it was everything you said and then some more. Thank you for your help, your patience, kindness, and the phone calls.
