Great location & Great House

Great location & great house! Truly had everything we needed, and it was very clean. We were headed to Busch Gardens with the family and it was really 4 minutes away from the house. Very convenient, neighborhood was quiet, and they provided the option to park the car in the garage which was nice. We would definitely come back and stay again. Thank you!

Stayed for 2 nights. The house was emaculately spotless. The bathrooms were up to date and very clean. Plenty of fresh towels in each bathroom.The beds and pillows in each bedroom were fluffy and the sheets were freshly cleaned. The kitchen was set up perfect with plenty of clean dishes, glasses, and cooking appliances and utensils. There is a small back deck and yard with a fire pit which neither was used by us. There were plenty of supplies for any need. Laundey room was set up nicely eith plenty of detergent. The house was beautifully decorated with accents - nicely done! I would definitely stay here agsin if in the area.
