  We had a wonderful time at this beautiful home. The owners recommended some great spots from renting a pontoon to restaurants and parks. We rented it with my parents and my sister's family. There was plenty of room for everyone. The beds are super comfortable. The kids had a lot of fun in the pool. Thanks for a very nice vacation.

  I could tell right when we arrived, this was going to be a great stay! The home was spacious and clean. The kids jumped right into the pool the minute we set our suitcases down. The pool was refreshing. The private beach was just as nice. We barbequed and watched amazing sunsets. I would definately recommend taking a boat to the local sandbar. We rented one at WindSong. What a treat. There were sand dollars galore and blue waters. The grocery store was a minute away, so close we walked there a few times for supplies. Tom and Heather were right there to take care of any needs. I've already recommended the home to a few friends. Thank you Tom & Heather!

  I worried that the pictures online were to good to be true, but the house is exactly as described and so are all of the pictures. The homeowners were easy to contact for information and assistance. We had 3 generations staying here and the layout was conducive to us older people getting away for quiet time if we needed to. I had a very fast turn around on getting my deposit back. Thank you Heather and Tom for sharing your wonderful home with us. We fished from the dock and even though it was out of season for good fishing we still caught several small fish and enjoyed the dock. Take your own poles and tackle boxes. My son-in-law and grandsons utilized the pool several times a day. The community clubhouse was not worth the visit, but that was fine since the rental home had such a great pool. The private beach, which is several blocks from the house was very nice and we did see dolphins. The only downside of the house is that there are a lot of stairs, so I would not recommend it for anyone in a wheelchair or has trouble with stairs. LOVED IT, LOVED IT, LOVED IT.

  The house was as nice as it is listed, if not more. After going to nearby beaches everyday, (Clearwater and St. Pete's and the St.ate Park) the pool was wonderful. We had fun in the pool everyday before having supper. Everything we needed was right there. The convenient grocery store only a few blocks away was nice for last minute items, when needed. The kids had plenty of pool toys and had fun catching and releasing crabs and small fish from the dock. The pool table was great as we had a family tournament going through-out the week. Plenty of room for our 11. Went to Tampa Bay Buccaneer Stadium for a tour one day. Thanks for sharing your beautiful home. We recommend it to families and adults.

  Just returned home from our wonderful vacation!! Loved the house, was very spacious and clean. The pool was wonderful also, we had it heated for the week since we had a baby with us. Tom was right there when we had a couple of things that needed fixed. If you want a quiet and relaxing place to get away from it all, this is the place. No noise from neighbors and very high class neighborhood. Wish the private beach was walking distance, but can't have everything. Tthank you for everything Tom and Heather.

  We had a great time. Upon our arrival we were in awe. We were never expecting the house to be so spacious and so clean. The rooms were large and had planty of room for our family. The upstairs had a very large living room-dining room while the lower level was an oversized great family room, each with a TV. The bedrooms were all good size with plenty of towels and bedding. We had 12 of us over the weekend, we had plenty of room and never felt cramped. All the porches and back yard where the pool was, were screened in. We really loved the stereo/intercom system, music everywhere.! There were several great beaches near by. Robert K Rees Memorial Park and Howard Beach are quite impressive. Tarpon Springs was a hit with our crew and a must visit. The owners were great. We had a couple of questions and they always got right back to us and were clearly willing to make sure our stay was enjoyable. We were in search of a great spot to relax and that would accommodate all of us and we found it.

  We usually go on vacation to Orlando every year. This year we decided to get away from the chaos and theme parks. We all were a bit apprehensive about staying in a house that we only saw pictures of on-line. However, all 9 of us were so happy we did!!! This house was beautiful inside and out!! Very clean well kept and plenty of room for all of us. The pool was awesome ( very clean ) The kids loved the doc out back and were even able to see a sting ray. The private beach was something you would see out of a postcard. There was plenty to do in the area, we went to tarpon springs 2 of the days, rented a boat from a marina the kids also enjoyed this. The dolphins were swimming all around us. I am so happy that we decided to go this route this year instead of a suite in a hotel room. The owners of this were very easy to deal with. I would email Heather and she would always get right back to me. Thank you for such a pleasant stay and I would definitely love to stay here again!!

  We stayed a week in July 2008 and had alot of fun. The house was as described and was really nice. The pool was a little dirty but it was rainy season down there. The whole family fit nicely and the house was clean.

  The owners of this house were awesome! There is always some trepidation about renting house you have not seen in person but this was a wonderful surprise. The house was everything you see and more. We found it well located to restaurants, stores and sights. The house was great as well. The amount of space allows everyone enough room to not feel on top of each other. The pool is fabulous for kids and adults alike. The full screen porch over the entire back of the house makes sitting outside possible all day or night and makes night swimming a delight. The private beach is great for kids to play and to picnic or to have a barbecue. We had our own dolphin experience watching them swim by during our beach day. Bring your snorkel gear to this beach and you will see all kinds of sea life like small rays and crabs. Bring water shoes for swimming at any ocean beach though. The owner answered all of our questions and helped us coordinate fishing trips and other excursions that we did. We were able to find the perfect fishing half day trip for a tremendous price with their help. Because it is on the water you can fish right from the house dock. We caught all types of local fish with fishing poles available at the house. Disney was a 90 minute drive and provided a day trip opportunity to take the kids to Disney but avoid the hotel stay and prices! We have already booked this house again and have recommended it to all of our friends and family. The only recommendation we would have is to provide some type of wireless internet for those that want or need it. Highly recommended!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  We stayed here in August for 5 nights and had a wonderful time. Great size rooms, all really clean and well maintained. Lovely bathrooms. We paid for pool heat and the pool was lovely and warm. We had a great meal at the Longhorn steakhouse and some great takeouts from other local restaurants. We visited Honeymoon Island which was beautiful. Busch Gardens and Adventure Island were easy to get to. We really hope to come and stay here again in 2 years time.
