Had a great stay! Accomodations are dated but clean and has everything you could need. The yard is very private with a great pool area. The lake offered hours of shore fishing. And best of all the property is close to everything from Hollywood up to Pompano.

Great stay!

What a relaxing get away, can’t beat the view and privacy! Lots of amenities provided, which was a welcomed surprise! My only advice is to remember you’re staying by a lake in Florida… don’t be like me and forget that comes with bugs. Other than a few jumpscares from nature, this was a perfect stay!

This is an older home but it is VERY CLEAN, so you feel very comfortable and can just relax. Some VRBO's are very fancy and you feel like you might break something. Ann is caring and communicated well with us. The house and family has an interesting history. We had a great time and will stay again when we are in the area.

Absolutely beautiful home! Very relaxing back yard and beautiful sunsets.

This location is close to airport and the house is very clean and well equiped. Howevever, the backyard is where we lived the whole time we were their. The pool is great, lots of wildlife to watch, and the screened in patio makes it very comfortable to eat and sit outside no matter what the weather is! Thank you so much for the use of your house!

Very comfortable property with excellent facilities

The first bonus was how close and easy it was to get here from FLL airport. The arrival instructions were excellent. The private pool and hot tub overlooking the lake add a touch of luxury and there was everything you could want in the kitchen and elsewhere including pool toys. Ann was really helpful and responsive to any questions. This was a great base for exploring south Florida.

Perfect for our family, the house was very comfortable providing space for us to be together and for alone time. Ann, the host was always available, but never bothered us :) ...Hubby and I really enjoyed having outdoor access right from our bedroom, we drank coffee and watch the sun rise, amazing views and everything you need to relax.

Wonderful stay!

My family and I loved our stay here! If anything, the pictures and description are modest compared to how lovely the home is! The pool was so refreshing and clean and the lake was incredible. There were so many friendly lizards, iguanas and birds around the property that were so fun to watch! The screened in porch area was always well shaded and cool. The beds were very comfortable and there were plenty of towels for use. The sunsets shown in the pictures are nightly! We couldn’t be happier with our stay. Thank you!!
