About Carrie
Co-owned by 2 Canadian Brothers and their families. This is our vacation property to enjoy year round and share with our family, friends and guests, YOU! We have made many improvements in our home since we purchased it in 2008 and we continue to do so every time we are at our home. We've updated furniture, fixtures, lighting, flooring, linens, and pool/deck furniture for everyone to enjoy. Between our two families, one lives in Eastern Canada and one in Western Canada, we spend about 7 weeks a year in the sun, relaxing and enjoying much needed family time with our kids. We have not gone overboard in our decorating since we have such a variety of people using the house. Florida is not just about Disney. There are so many things to experience and we try something new every time we are down for a holiday. Just our community alone offers you 18 holes of golf professionally designed and challenging for the avid golfer.
Carrie purchased this house in 2008
Why Carrie chose Davenport
Our home is a HOME, NOT JUST ANOTHER VACATION RENTAL. It is truly a comfortable, clean, well maintained, well equipped vacation home. It's a place you can settle back and relax, all day by the pool if you like or to come back to after a long day at the theme parks. You can put your feet up, have a glass of wine by the pool, watch TV, read a book, all in quiet and comfort. With a south facing pool/back yard and beautiful deck with table, chairs and loungers, there's space for everyone to unwind, chill and relax. Super quiet neighbors on either side and no one behind. A stay here will convince you to never stay in a hotel again, not when there is the option for an entire home. You just can't beat it.
What makes this house unique
When we bought the house, the first thing we noticed compared to so many other homes we'd stayed in or looked to purchase, was the difference in size. Our home had such a great floor plan, all on one level, it was wide open, bright and inviting. But it lacked color and warmth. We started by removing all the carpet in the living areas (except the bedrooms) and had tile laid throughout. This helps in the hot summer days to cool the house down. We then added color through curtains, new light fixtures, new art work, pillows, new bedspreads and furniture, flat screen tv's, etc. It was an amazing transformation. It felt like home. We have before an after pictures and it's hard to believe it's the same house. We loved the location. Highlands Reserve is a great community in comparison to so many around. It's well manicured lawns and higher end homes in addition to the Golf Course, Tennis courts and community pool make it an attractive alternative to other communities. It's location to Disney was perfect. You can avoid the I-192 and all it's traffic, lights and people, and take the I-4 to exit 67 in about 15 minutes. This takes you right to all the Disney Parks and Downtown Disney hassle free. We also loved that we could be on the road to the Gulf of Mexico in 5 minutes, and be in Tampa in 45 or Clearwater in an hour. We love to drive there for a day at the beach, to take a dinner cruise or just walk along the beach to collect shells. It's an easy, relaxing drive in a day.
Guestbook comments from the owner
Carrie and Family,
Thank you for allowing us to use your beautiful home for our first family vacation to Florida. Your home was wonderful! A great place to come home to after a very long day!!
Jordyn and Hayden spent as much time in your pool as they possibly could! It was put to good use.
We hope to use your summer home again sometime. The tips and extra information was so helpful in helping us plan our days here. Thank you for making our trip planning so easy.
We do not want to go home but we must!!
Take Care
Deliah, Brian, Jordyn and Hayden

TREMENDOUS VALUE!!!
The property was even better than we had expected. It had everything, two dining rooms, 4 bedrooms, TV in every room, Large HDTV in living room, great location (Very close to all the large attractions), very clean, and the great thing about the pool is that it gets the sun the ENTIRE day!! Alot of pools only get partial sunlight, but part of the deck is covered so there is a shaded spot for eating and relaxing. Carrie was very helpful and friendly. Can't say enough about this home. This will be the first place we inquire about next time we go! Don't pass this one up!!!
Great accomodations
Great location for theme parks and to both coasts...75min to the east cocoa beach and 100min to the west clearwater. Good location to stores, restaurants of all kinds within 15 min.
Clean, Convenient, Felt Like Home!
It was a nice relaxing home to come back to after long days at the parks. Everyone had there own space to spread out and relax. The kids loved the pool! We are so glad we decided to rent this house instead of going to a Hotel. It was such a quiet area, I didn't even hear neighbors. I slept better hear than at home. It was so close to everything, stores, restaurants, gas stations.
It was also very easy to get to Disney and Beach from this location with no delays! I would love to have stayed forever, but had to go home. I would highly recommend you stay here!
Clean, Stocked, Convenient, Wonderful Owners
We stayed 5 weeks in the great house in Davenport, FL. Close to the interstate and right next door to a Publix grocery and several shops making it very convenient. We worked directly with the owner to extend our stay several times because we enjoyed this house so much. This was a great interim home for us while waiting to get into our new home. The pool was safe, clean and just large enough for our five children. Speaking of our 5 children. They loved the house. It's on a quiet street, no close neighbors to the rear so its very easy to be in the pool without feeling "stared" at. Other houses in the area are also rentals, however the neighbors across the street were super cool and easy to talk with! Overall, we just loved working with the owners and grew to really appreciate them and their vacation home. We HIGHLY recommend this vacation spot and hope to return when in need of a place to stay in Orlando.
Best Vacation Ever!
This review is quite late considering our vaation was July 25-31, 2015.
First of all- the pictures speak for themselves! The house is clean, spacious, just as described. Everything we needed for our stay was available. The house offered more space than we actually needed which was an added bonus. Everything appeared to be well-maintained. It is located on a quite street that is beautiful and clean. There is a community pool but we never used it. The location was within a reasonable drive to Universal Studios, which was the fucos of our visit to Florida. There were 5 of us- me, my husband and our 3 boys. All the bedrooms were very spacious and it was nice that at the end of a long day all the boys could retreat to their own bedroom. The master bedroom had a nice-size walk in closet and large on-suite. The pool area was the best! We enjoy it as much as we could considering the rain. There were plenty of towels for our use as well.
There are many restaurants nearby to dine-in or carry-out. There are a few Walmart stores nearby and we stopped there before our arrival to stock up on food and drinks.
Carrie was super-easy to communicate with via email. The instructions were clear and precise. This was our first time renting a vacation home and I'm glad that we had a great experience! We would most definitely recommend this rental home to our friends and family! We would most definitely rent this villa again if the opportunity arises! Thank you Carrie!
Impeccably clean, affordable for our family time
An amazing stay in this rental that is just west of Orlando and easy access to so much. We chose to just enjoy this home and the heated pool for our family of 5, including our grown kids age 24 and 22, and our 10 year old. We stayed in many nights to enjoy cooking and had all the kitchen amenities we needed. plenty of soft beds, linens, towels, and easy checkout too. My husband and son enjoyed a day of golf at Highlands course and said it was the "best day of the year". we easily traveled to Cocoa Beach one day for my 10 year old to see his first ocean. Thank you for making our holiday vacation so easy and helping me with this bucket list memory. Jeanine H. In Illinois
