Relaxing Lake House

We needed a location for an extended 3 week stay in Florida. This lake cottage style property was a great spot. The quiet neighborhood and relaxing back porch made for an enjoyable stay! All rooms were clean and simple. Would recommend for anyone visiting Lakeland!

Winter stay

This property is well maintained, comfortable and in a nice quiet neighborhood. Being right on the lake, you are able to enjoy all the natural beauty. Everything you might need is within a short drive. Landlord is quick to reply to any issues and is respectful of your privacy. I loved it, highly recommend and will definitely return next winter.

Amazing

Beautiful location. We were able to visit with family and close enough for anything we needed. The screened in porch was perfect and my son even did a little fishing in the lake. The house was the cleanest we have ever stayed in as a rental in Florida. We would definitely do this again.

Great lakehouse!

We found this great property while looking for a place to stay for a family, FL wedding. The house was well appointed and close to all of our activities. It was also clean, as pictured, and very comfortable! If only the weather was warmer- we weren't fully able to enjoy the sunroom or the lake!

We had a great time!! The lake in the back was so quiet and peaceful in the morning. Neighborhood was quiet. Check in and check out was easy, accommodations were great. Luke was very prompt to respond to any messages I sent. I would definitely recommend this little oasis and hope to be back.

This house was very nice. I don't have any complaints. There were a few minor issues that could be looked at, but there wasn't anything major for concern. The location was mid-way between two family groups so that was good. There is plenty of businesses in the area. The street itself was rather narrow and I'm not used to seeing so many cars parked all over the lawns that I passed.

Fabulous rental

Owners’ attention to details made this rental feel like home. Kitchen equipment included everything a basic kitchen needed…even sharp knives! Very clean, comfortable beds, nice floor plan. Vinyl room facing the lake was a huge plus: morning coffee and evening unwind embellished by bird calls and other pleasant sounds. Highly recommend.

Beutiful views

Comfortable property with a wonderful Florida porch. Bedrooms were spacious and comfotable. We appreciated the desk in the one bedroom for remote work. Close to grocery, local universities. Kitchen is well stocked and easy to work with. The living room is smaller but cozy. We spent most of our time in the covered porch enjoying the lake views. Neighborhood is tight and depending on the mapquest can seem a little concerning. However we encojntered no problems. Was quite and as soon as you enter the housd you forget your in a busy neighborhood.

Thank you so much Mitzi, yes it can get a little busy when university is in session, but luckily we're far enough down the street it doesn't affect us.

About the host

Hosted by Luke Witte

Host profile image
Hi I'm Luke ! I am a FL transplant who fell in love with this wonderful state and decided to stay for good. My wife and our 3 kids enjoy all the spectacular things this state has to offer, especially the beaches and amusement parks!

Why they chose this property

This was the first home that my wife and I lived in after we got married. It holds a very special place in our hearts and we could nto bear the thought of parting with it. So we decided to hang onto it and invite others to enjoy all this home has to offer!

What makes this property unique

The best thing aboout this home is the proximity to the lake. When sitting on the screened-in patio, you will feel like you are right on top of the water, it's that close!
