GUESTS arriving at Holiday House don't mind if owners Jim and Judy aren't around to greet them personally, Mother Nature is happy to oblige. Outside this 1500 sq. ft. rental on the Anclote River, (five minutes north of Tarpon Springs and 35 minutes from St. Pete and Tampa Airport) seagulls soar overhead and dolphins and manatees cavort in warm waters below. Lizards and butterflies in the gardens surprising visitors with an impromptu appearance on the deck, dock or pool lanai.

Holiday House invites quests to enjoy the tropical surroundings at a deliciously relaxed pace. Judy and Jim have decorated this dream cottage for people desiring an island experience. This colorful dwelling is perched on a wide river curving west to the gulf in an undisturbed nature. The view with sun glissoning on the water in the morning is only rivaled by the palm trees and fresh grapefruit juice.

A stained glass door opens to a colorful interior which features a well equipped kitchen, a living room that has fantastic views of the water and heated pool that seem to stretch forever. Two master bedrooms with t.v., pillow-top hotel mattresses, new linens, private bathrooms, as colorful as the rest of this house. The game room has a new full-size pool table. The comfortable couch has a queen size bed hidden inside for quest.

Holiday offers a wealth of outdoor activities, only limited by your imagination. Water, sky, land, any sport of you ability. Canoe, bikes, fishing poles are in the garage. A 9-hole golf course, restaurant is within walking distance. When you are on the property you really have your own piece of paradise to enjoy. The comment we receive most often is, "It's better than the photographs!"

The white sandy beaches where you can find shells galore, and state owned parks are only minutes away.

  • We have just returned from the most wonderful vacation, I only wish we could have stayed longer than five weeks. You can't really call this a vacation house it is more like a home away from home. Jim and Judy the owner's of this little piece of paradise are wonderful, anything you needed you only had to ask for and it was there before you could say jumping jack flash. The interior and exterior have been decorated with extremely good taste. We highly recommend this home away from home. We have already booked five weeks for next year. Thanks Jim and Judy for everything and looking forward to seeing you in 2008. The Gavins.

  • Christmas and New Year 2006. The house is absolutely spotless and very well equipped. We wanted for nothing and had a great time with the bar-b-q, the pool table, the pool and the TV (American football season!). The location is very quiet and yet so convenient for the US19 road. 1 hour from Crystal River and the manatees. 45 minutes downtown Tampa. 20 minutes Howard Park. 2 minutes walk to the local deli for essential supplies. This place has it all! Many thanks to Jim and Judy who were very attentive, helpful and super quick with their responses, but who did not impose on us at all. We have rented all over Europe and the US. This ranks amongst the very best.

  • Just got back from a great time at this property in August. Inside and outside it's immaculate and you can tell that when renovated careful though went into the decorations. The difference here is that there are lots of extras such as the fishing rods, pool toys, kayak, pool table, etc. which you just don't get with other properties. The owner is happy to take calls or answer questions and genuinely wants you to have a good time. We would seriously think about returning next time we are in Florida. Oh by the way if you are lucky as we were then you may even see Dolphins in the river outside.

  • We had a great but unusual stay here in April. Our second daughter was born here in mid-April and we needed a place to stay until our interstate paperwork was completed for the adoption. Judy and Jim were extraordinarily flexible and allowed us to come in with no notice and worked with us on the date we were leaving. It made the experience of bringing home our 2nd daughter much easier than it would have been if we were all cooped up in a hotel. We would definitely recommend staying at this house,it is great!

  • A wonderful stay from the moment we walked in the door until the moment we left. The house is clean cool and VERY well appointed. the owners, when we met were very pleasant and could not do enough to make our stay comfortable - we even picked our own fruit from from the grapefruit tee and from the grape vines. We are already looking forward to booking again next year. 07/2006

  • A lovely, comfortable, and well-equipped house convenient to Tampa, Clearwater, etc. and very close to Tarpon Springs, a unique town with great places to eat. The owners, Jim and Judy, are friendly, helpful and eager to make one's stay as enjoyable as possible. We hope to be able to return next year.

  • The house was well taken care of and for us was a great place to vacation. It was clean, attractively decorated, with colorful pictures and plants. It had everything we needed and was very comfortable.
