Heavenly Lake House

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This home is as nice as the photos that are posted. The view is amazing, and the property was spotless inside and out. Every room is decorated beautifully and is well stocked. The beds are very comfortable, best sleep I've had in months. We used the spa and the firepit, both worked great. The location is very quiet with no traffic driving by. And the community was so welcoming and kind. We look forward to returning the next time we are in town.

Perfect staycation

We are local to the area but wanted a place on the lake for Father’s Day and this home was amazing! We had the best time. There were even deer walking around the front yard to greet us. We highly recommend staying here but not when we want to book 😉! We definitely will be back soon!

Great value!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We really enjoyed our stay. The house was nice with tons of privacy. Only complaint was the master bedroom had a hard time keeping cool. It was in the high 90’s at time of stay, so most days probably not as bad. There was a nice window unit to offset it, but I think it may just need a littleMaintenance. We would for sure book again!
Response from VrboOwner on Aug 9, 2025
Josh, we’re glad you enjoyed your stay and appreciated the privacy the house offers! Thanks for the feedback about the master bedroom’s cooling — we’ll look into it to make sure it’s comfortable for future guests. We’d love to have you back anytime!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We stayed at this rental (3 friends) for a week and it was perfect for us. The location is awesome and the lake is beautiful. The layout of the house was great and the bonus room with the shuffleboard table was a good place to hang out. We had some maintenance issues and the owner resolved them promptly and showed up himself with a contractor to get it taken care of. We're extremely happy with this trip and would stay again at this rental.

Lake tarpon cottage dream

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Lake tarpon cottage dream! Our family had an amazing staycation at the beautifully renovated cabin on lake tarpon. The decor and amenities were well thought out for the enjoyment of their guests. Our family of 8 fit perfectly with plenty of space for all. The sunroom was our favorite spot to enjoy our morning coffee or evening glass of wine. The kids loved the shuffleboard table in there as well. There are many activities that the kids enjoyed at the home such as fishing, kayaking, soaking in the hot tub, relaxing by the fire pit and making s’mores. We will definitely be back to enjoy this cabin again!

Lakeside cabin facelift

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This property has had extensive remodeling with a designer’s touch. Upscale kitchen with spices, coffees and teas included. The shuffleboard was great fun and the hot tub was always ready. Unfortunately, getting hot water is a constant issue. They explain that it is an on-demand system and that you can only use one thing at a time (shower, dishwasher or clothes washer.) However, the problem was present when only trying to shower in the master bath in the morning. This was very frustrating and I couldn’t imagine a family trying to get enough hot water for all.
Response from VrboOwner on Feb 9, 2024
Thank you for sharing your experience! We're glad you enjoyed the extensive remodeling and the upscale amenities, such as the well-equipped kitchen and fun shuffleboard.

We appreciate your feedback and hope to welcome you back for an improved stay in the future!

A peaceful experience on the lake in an adorable home!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We genuinely appreciated our time in this home. Recently renovated, the owners really paid attention to all of the fine details in creating a modern, welcoming space for guests. Our daughters loved the fun twin bedroom, playing shuffle board and collecting shells on the shore. My husband and I appreciated the kitchen and supplied coffee. Our favorite thing to do was to enjoy coffee on the dock each morning, it was incredibly peaceful. At night there are string lights above the firepit, we loved hanging there and drinking wine after dinner. We also appreciated the garage which was full of fun things to enjoy like fishing rods, kayaks and life vests and corn hole boards, ensuring that our family had fun things to do while staying in this home. It is convenient to a lot of stores to buy groceries and such. And a quick drive to enjoy the quaint downtown Tarpon area. We also drove to Clearwater Beach for a fun day in the sand. We had a lovely vacation in this home, thank you for sharing it with us.

A Grand Slam of a Stay

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Myself and two other work colleagues were going to be in Florida for spring training this season and decided we'd rather have a house than hotel for the 5 weeks we were going to be in state, and I happened to come across Reel Retreat. Needless to say, I was very happy I found it! Clean, quiet, comfortable and with all the conveniences of home, Reel Retreat made our working journey so much better. The outside areas were a great place to come back too after a long day at the ballpark and the hot tub really helped with some quality relaxation in the evenings. An excellent bbq and kitchen made cooking a breeze, which was a big factor in booking this property. I honestly can't say enough good things about the house. Linens, beds, inside furniture were all fantastic and when stormy weather occurred, sitting in the back 'games room' made watching the storms come across Lake Tarpon all that much better. Location of the property was perfect, right at the top end of Lake Tarpon and just 10 minutes away from downtown - excellent Greek and seafood abound! We were 25 minutes to Dunedin and 35 minutes to Clearwater, which was perfect. Beach Time property managers and the owner of the house were quick to respond to any issues we had, and honestly, there really weren't much of any... certainly not anything major. All in all it was a wonderful stay and we can't wait to get back next Spring Training!
Response from VrboOwner on Apr 2, 2024
