Winter Escape

This is a lovely home. It's very spacious and well-appointed. The Masts were excellent hosts. Since we stayed for 3 months, we loved that we could walk to the Lake Wales Family Recreation Center, and to downtown Lake Wales. Being able to walk through Lake Wailes park every day was wonderful. We really enjoyed our winter escape!

Perfect family stay!!

Thank you so much for sharing your home. There was literally almost anything you needed for the kids. The house was spacious enough for all 11 of us! We got to celebrate our son’s graduation from high school, 18th birthday and send off to the Marine Corps! The added bonus was using the pool and hot tub area which was beautiful!! For my daughter to get engaged to the love of her life! A million thank you’s couldn’t even begin to tell you how grateful I am!! We only live a short distance but will stay again with the family next year!!

Like Being Home

We had all the comforts of home. We only cooked one night, but had every thing we needed as far as prepping and serving this meal. The mattresses were very comfortable. The location was beautiful, in a very pleasant neighborhood, which is very important to us. Due to a minor issue, the host owner was very quick/responsive to our needs. We would absolutely stay here again.

A great place

We had a great time in this well equipped, clean home with a screened in pool and hot tub. I was surprised to find out you have to pay extra to have the hot tub heated because it’s part of the pool, but it was well with it. Communication was great throughout the week.

This property was very clean and welcoming. It has everything you will need for a relaxing escape. It is very well maintained and the host thinks of everything. There are scenic views of the lake across the street. We will definitely be back to this property.

Overall great vacation rental

The rental is located in a neighborhood that was clean, had a very relaxed feel, and safe.The house and pool are well maintained and are an ideal setup for anyone that is traveling with kids—especially because the bottom of the stairs are gated and the pool has safety precautions in place. The bedding was comfortable, access to pots, pans, and dish ware were a huge plus, and the appliances were clean.My only feedback was the cleanliness wasn’t where I would expect a highly rated rental to be. The trash was overflowing, dishes were put away wet, remnants from a party were found throughout the house (balloons, beer caps, etc), and the dishwasher had standing water in it when we arrived. Again, not deal breakers, just not something I would expect to deal with when renting a house with this high of rating. I’d highly recommend this rental to anyone traveling to the area and looking for a comfortable, family friendly place to stay.

Christmas 2024

We have family in Lake Wales and this location allows us to stay close by in comfort. We bring our bikes and ride around the lake with our grandkids on the paved path. We love the pool, which can be heated in colder weather and the hot tub. One of the things that really attracted us is the dining table that seats 8 people - perfect for our family holiday meals. Kristy, the host is very responsive to inquiries. We will be back!

Very nice home

With a daughter and her family living in Lake Wales, this home was a convenient place for us (and our other daughter) to stay for a few days. Our grandsons loved the heated pool and hot tub and we rode bikes every day on the paved path around the lake. We will check availability for our next trip down to Lake Wales.

Great location and amenities

Our family stayed her for a wedding at Bella Cosa. Kristy was a great host and responded to our requests promptly! The pool and spa were great and there was more than enough room for all of us to spread out. The location to the wedding venue was very convenient. The lake across the street was nice to wake up to. My brother and his wife had a nice walk around the lake on the walking path. Playgrounds nearby were good for the small kids. We had everything we needed at the house - we were able to cook and eat a few meals at the house and do a couple loads of laundry during our stay. Highly recommended!!

Quiet, spacious, and relaxing

In town for a wedding. Loved the space, location, and amenities of this VRBO. Plenty of space to hang out as a family but have your own area when desired. Having a private pool and hot tub was so nice. We spent a lot of time in both. Convenient to the wedding location. Quiet and relaxing. Would not hesitate to stay here again if in the area. Well stocked. Owner was great with communication. Highly recommend!
