Overall great property and great communication. Great location in walking distance to deland. The hosts were awesome and accommodating. A couple things to know: there is one bathroom that is accessed from a bedroom so you have to go through that bedroom to get it, it’s not in a common access area. Also you have to leave all bedroom doors open for the AC to reach you - it’s not in each room so if you really care about privacy between you and other guests it’s less than ideal. It’s definitely too warm without keeping the bedroom doors open. I’d say winter is probably the best time to visit if you care about closing the doors. But if you’re a family with young kids you want to keep an eye on this is probably an ideal spot! I was happy with our stay overall.

Thank you so much for your kind words! I'm glad the location worked well for your Stetson visit and that your pups enjoyed the fenced yard—that space was designed with comfort and safety in mind. It’s great to hear the home felt clean and the neighborhood quiet and secure. We'd be happy to host you again anytime!

The bed in room two (with the bathroom) was so uncomfortable. We both woke with back pain. Not to mention the bed was so loud! Pillows too thick, my neck was sore. No air conditioning in the bedrooms or bathroom. So we had to keep the doors open to the bedrooms. No privacy! The person who would have slept in room one, slept on the couch because there was no ac in the bedrooms. And everyone has to walk thru bedroom two to get to the bathroom. It was not a good experience. HOWEVER, the place is charming in appearance. Very clean, neat and stylish. There is a cute swing on the porch. Cute white picket fence. A beautiful large fountain out front but it was not turned on. Needs AC in the bedrooms and those beds replaced. P
