What a fun surprise! This beautiful little oasis is a quick drive to the quad city area attractions. We were in town for Shoalsfest and this location served us well. My only regret is that we didn't get to meet the host's dog!
The property was awesome, nice and quiet place to relax. Dana was really great she checked on me and made sure I had everything I needed. I will definitely be back.
We had a great stay in Florence! The rental was so cozy and the yard was perfect for us and the fur-kids. The host was super was kind and considerate throughout our stay! Will definitely return next time we are in the area!
Great quiet, little, private hideaway pool house with everything you need and a lovely pool view. My daughter and I enjoyed a girls trip away to swim and relax before heading back to school and it was the perfect spot for what we wanted.
Quiet comfortable stay. Convenient to all of the W. C. Handy festival activities. The accommodations were comfortable, clean and relaxing. All communication with the owner was clear and concise. Would love to stay again!
Dana had everything we could need. She checked on us several times to see if we needed anything. The pool house was very clean and comfortable. We will definitely staying there again.

Iām glad everything was satisfactory. You are welcome anytime:)
Dana- owner and host was the best. Had a great time at her Pool House. I would recommend her house to everyone. She is cordial, helpful, and just a wonderful person. If you are traveling through Florence AL I would say stay here you won't be disappointed.
Pleasant privacy in a backyard pool house. Relaxing view of large pool from French doors. Big bed & comfortable couch with HUGE tv screen. Kind host, answers questions & lets you be. Will definitely consider booking again ššš

Dana was an incredible host! Extremely communicative and accommodating. The pool house is tidy and providing a cozy place to live for the week. I was able to make several meals and the kicthen is well stocked with all utensils you would need. The neighborhood is very quiet and made it easy to work from the location as well. I would absolutely book again and plan to on future trips.
We stayed at the pool house to take a long weekend trip. The host allowed us to bring our fishing boat and even use an outlet on the porch to charge batteries overnight. We also were able to bring our two fur babies š
Overall we had a great time. The pool house was clean minus some spider webs. To note if you have a longer stay, the host only provides 1 roll of toilet paper.

Perfect for us!
The pool house is the perfect size for us & our dog. It was wonderful fit. Having complete access to the pool for us & our dog made our stay more than we could have hoped for! And having a fenced in yard made us more comfortable with allowing our dog to enjoy the property & her vacation as much as we enjoyed ours.
Dana is a very welcoming & gracious hostess. Her dog Ms Shelby is a lil treat! Her visits were simply charming! Every one of them brought us a smile.
Finding pet friendly places to stay is not always easy. Dana made us feel at home & our own dog very welcome!
Many thanks!

About the host
Hosted by Dana Allsup
I grew up in this area as a child. This was my childhood home and I have also raised my daughter here.
Why they chose this property
The pool house was built in 2008 and was used for my daughter, her friends and mine. We used it to have gatherings that centered around the pool. We have many happy memories here and now that my daughter is away at college, it sits empty. I hope whoever stays here will make their own happy memories too.
What makes this property unique
The poolhouse has privacy that a hotel doesn't provide. You have the ability to cook or make a midnight snack. You can watch the horses in the pasture behind the pool, graze and play. There is parking and a fenced yard around the perimeter of the property.
