Beautiful home with everything you would need for a wonderful time. Convenient location to beaches,shopping and restaurants. Secluded and quiet - its like having your own private retreat!! Very clean and beautifully decorated.
The house is very nice and set up very well! The pool was the perfect temperature the whole time, and there are plenty of pool floaties to use. The kitchen is well equipped. We really enjoyed our stay!!!

Thank you Katelyn. We are happy to hear that you and your family enjoyed your stay. You are welcome anytime.
This place was a great place to rent, easy communication with owner and plenty of items at the house to make our stay comfortable and fun (pool toys, washer and dryer, even a blender for smoothies!). Only 10 minutes from the beach and less than that to Wal-mart.

Excellent property with everything needed for guests. Wonderful location near the beach, perfect size, cute pool, beautiful decor. It’s like you’re staying with family, doesn’t feel at all like a rental house! Will be back.
Fabulous vacation! Just what we needed! So relaxing!
Everything with the process was seamless! Helma was very responsive and everything was as advertised! We especially loved the pool/outdoor space and the very quiet neighborhood! We will definitely be back!
This home was superbly furnished and decorated. It was comfortable, stylish and spacious, with the added bonus of a screened-in pool. We had a top-notch experience. Highly recommend this property.

We have stayed in lots of vacation rentals & this one was BY FAR the cleanest & best appointed for a beach vacation. Very private & quiet setting. Everything was as advertised. We ended most days with a swim in the pool. We enjoyed our stay very much & will definitely be back.

Desirae, Thank you for your review. You and your family are welcome anytime. We loved to share our home with you.
We loved the house even the decor in every room. We spent much of our time in the pool and also cooking in the beautiful kitchen. We liked that the beach is only 10 minutes away from the house also 30 minutes away is (Boca Grande) one of the prettiest beaches. We really enjoyed our time at this beautiful home and hope to come back!

My husband and I enjoyed our week stay at Helma's Cottage Creek. It was clean, convenient to stores, beaches, & decent distance to Tampa & Sarasota. My husband loved the pool & after a day at the beach, a cool down was perfect. We also appreciated privacy & quietness. Thank you, Helma for sharing your lovely home with us.

Helma’s home was lovely. Been coming to the area for the last seven years and this was the coolest on record. Pool heater was on but pool still much too cold. Close to the beaches and other attractions.

Thank you for the nice review.
It was nice sharing our home with you, and you are welcome back anytime.
We are sorry about the pool. The week that you were at our home, the weather was extremely cold at night and in the morning it was cooler than usual as well.
It takes time to warm up. We can't control the weather
We enjoyed our stay at Creek Cottage. It was beautifully decorated and well appointed. Great location - close to everything and a wonderfully private back garden. The salt water pool was so warm and relaxing. Great way to finish the day after the beach. The host was exceptional- very nice and responsive. Our gift blanket was such a thoughtful touch. We can’t wait to come back. Would highly recommend!!

Thank you Nicole, you and your family are welcome anytime. We loved to share our home with you.
My family and I all had different preferences for where to stay for a vacation. The boys are all fishermen who needed to be able to fish and explore. The girls all wanted a beautiful and comfortable house with a covered pool. This house had it all. The beds were comfortable the kitchen was perfect and there were plenty of towels along with a washer and dryer. I'm an early riser who would go out to the pool and watch for wildlife. I saw birds, an otter, a panther, and a racoon. The boys got to see an alligator and lizards and frogs. We all left happy.

Sehr schönes Haus mit super Lage für Strände, Einkaufen und Ausflüge. Die Terrasse und der Pool sind gegen Blicke von außen geschützt. Sehr freundliche Gastgeber
We loved our stay! The house was clean, well equipped, and private! So close to everything, yet a completely private backyard which is hard to come by! We will be back!

Thank you Shelly. We loved to share our home with you.
We stayed at Creek Cottage in February and March,it was indeed a perfect home away from home. The moment we walked through the door,we had smiles on our faces. It is beautifully decorated, meticulously clean, and well appointed. The beds were comfortable which is very important for a long stay, comfy sofa and a good amt of TV entertainment. Helma is a gracious host we had the pleasure of meeting the family, which was a special treat. She just wanted us to be comfortable and happy and we were. There were many,many supplies at the ready,which was wonderful but not expected. It is close to everything, shopping, restaurants, etc. yet private and quiet for a lovely stay. The pool was perfect. 100% highly recommended. Thanks Helma
