Very Good

Overall the house was great. Could have had a full propane tank for the Blackstone. Could have had kitchen dishrags, hand towels and wash rags for the bathroom. Beds were very comfortable. View of the lake was very relaxing and even got to see alligator in the water.

Huge house with beautiful views of lake and wildlife
Could be an awesome rental for large groups, but some attention to details are needed.

Thank you for your feedback, Scott. We’re glad you enjoyed the spacious layout and the lake and wildlife views. We’ve since partnered with a new management and cleaning team to ensure every detail is addressed for a more polished guest experience. We hope to welcome you back so you can see the improvements firsthand.
The property was quaintly nestled on the water, quiet and what a view. There were more beds that we could have imagined. We will definitely try and stay here again.

Thank you for the 10/10 review and for staying at our Sebring Lake Josephine 9BR/4.5BA lakefront vacation rental (sleeps 25). We’re thrilled the quiet setting, water views, and plentiful beds worked so well for your group. The home is designed for large gatherings—multiple bedrooms, spacious common areas, deck and fire pit—ideal for family reunions, golf trips, and race weekends. We’d love to welcome you back to the lake for another relaxing getaway!
We had a large group. Wanted to stay near the courses we were playing and it was. Very clean, all updated with plenty of space for a large gathering. Plenty of parking, there’s even a dollar general down the street that was convenient for groceries and even beer. Check in was very easy and host was available at anytime.This is definitely a home we would love to stay in again for next years trip. Thank you for letting us stay in your beautiful home.

December 2023
The home needs some work as there was a leak in the roof dripping in the living room and some of the doors had significant gaps. We had ants in one of the beds.

Thank you for the candid notes, Tom. I’m sorry for the inconveniences you experienced. Since that December 2023 stay, we’ve made substantial upgrades at our Sebring Lake Josephine 9BR/4.5BA lakefront vacation rental (sleeps 25) to deliver a cleaner, better-maintained home for large groups and family reunions:
Roof & living room: leak repaired by a licensed roofer; ceiling and adjacent areas restored and inspected after heavy rains.
Doors & comfort: doors re-hung and weatherstripping replaced to remove gaps and improve A/C efficiency.
Pest prevention: partnered with a licensed provider for recurring interior/exterior treatments and added pre-arrival inspections and protective bedding.
Operations: onboarded a new professional management company and new cleaning team with detailed quality-control checklists between stays.
We appreciate the opportunity to improve, and we’re committed to a consistently clean, well-kept Sebring lakehouse experience with beautiful water views, ample gathering spaces, and reliable amenities for your next visit.
I went with family and Friends for a 6 days.
The area is very nice, there are a lot of place to visit around and grocery store as well.
The house has a lot of space can accomodate a lot of people and with separation to give everyone the own space.
Game room has a lot of different things and the kids do not get bother at all.
Space outside is great, for play, back yard games, bon fire.
They have a griddle and green eggs for BBQ (both amazing) only thing is that they do not have a spare Propane tank (usually they have in other proprieties you do not want to remain without in the middle of cooking).

Thank you Alberto for staying with us! There is a dollar tree less than a mile up the road for guests to get spare gas tanks!
The property was nice. The house was beautiful. Something’s weren’t completely secured. The door leading to the back porch would drag on the wood and made it sound like it would fall off so we didn’t feel safe opening it. The railing seemed loose and we were concerned about if anyone pushed on it, they may have fallen. The chairs on the balcony were completely missing the bottoms. The door at the top of the stairs on the third floor was just placed there off the hinges. Plus, there were a lot of ant hill around the property. And the property wasn’t mowed. It was difficult setting up tables and chairs for an outdoor event in tall grass.

Hi Heather,
Thank you for your detailed feedback and for choosing our property for your stay. We truly value your comments, as they help us improve the experience for all future guests. Since your visit, we have hired a new professional cleaning company and a new property management team to ensure that maintenance issues, lawn care, and safety concerns are promptly addressed. We’ve also taken steps to repair the porch door, secure the railings, replace and repair furniture, and improve the landscaping.
We hope you’ll consider visiting us again so you can enjoy the upgrades and improvements we’ve made.
Warm regards,
Colpani Properties
Great location for our trip, played 4 different courses close by. Plenty of bed rooms, enough bathrooms. The deck view was awesome, especially for the late afternoon cocktail hour in the shade with the lake breeze.
Kitchen set up was also very good, lots of plates, silverware and cooking utensils. Glasses were fine, but would have liked a few "rocks" glasses. Used the flat gas grill more than we thought we would, that and the Egg Grill were awesome.
Would definitely come back, but there are few things that would need to be corrected.
1. 4 beds downstairs did not have top sheets. This was brought to the caretaker's attention, although they questioned me and then acknowledged receiving my texts, the concern was completely ignored after that.
2. The deck is in need of an upgrade, there's some planks popping up and are very worn. Shoes or sandals required.
3. The TV situation was not easy for us to figure out, no written instructions for us "old guys". We didn't have a 16 yr old to show us how to stream.
4. The thermostats are also something we hadn't encountered before and needed some instructions.
Mostly minor concerns, would have liked better communication regarding the sheets.
Willing to come back with assurances the minor issues would be addressed.

The property listing was as expected but upon arrival we noticed the floors were very dirty, which means do we clean them? There was ant piles everywhere and the grass was past my ankles. The railing on the balcony is unstable and was definitely was a safety issue. The trash cans were all full when we arrived so our trash was piling up. The check in was 5 pm and you had to pay to come/leave late and early which is unheard of for me, the check out was 10AM with EVERYTHING "how you found it" . Does that entail i need to wake up at 6AM to wash all the sheets and towels to be out by 10? Very unspecific with cleaning instructions.

About the host
Hosted by Jonathan Colpani
We’re Colleen & Jonathan with Colpani Properties. Since 2016 we’ve hosted families and friend groups across South Florida—a Fort Lauderdale waterfront 5BR, a Marathon (Florida Keys) 3BR designed for weekly stays, and a Sebring 9BR lakefront for reunions (sleeps 25). We’re hands-on hosts who value clean, well-equipped homes: fast Wi-Fi, fully stocked kitchens, comfy beds, thoughtful extras (EV chargers, hot tubs, game rooms, private dock where applicable). We recently partnered with a new management and cleaning team to raise our standards even further. Our goal is simple: clear communication, easy self check-in, and spaces that make gathering together feel effortless.
Why they chose this property
We chose Lake Josephine for its wide-open water views and space to gather. The neighborhood is minutes to the Sebring International Raceway, groceries, parks, and boat ramps. Afternoons on the deck and evenings by the fire pit feel miles from everything, yet you’re close to what you need. It’s perfect for reunions, retreats, and multi-family trips that want both nature and convenience.
What makes this property unique
A rare Lake Josephine estate with room for everyone: 9BR/4.5BA that sleeps 25, huge game room (pool, poker, foosball, air hockey, ping-pong), lakefront deck & fire pit, fast Wi-Fi, and ample parking + EV. Peaceful sunrise views yet minutes to groceries and the Sebring International Raceway—perfect for reunions and retreats.
