It was a nice stay. The only problem was that it smelled like cigarettes when we walked in. We had to buy candles to deal with the smell
Response from VrboOwner on 28 Sept, 2026
Thank you for your feedback, and we're so sorry you were greeted by a cigarette smell when you arrived. That's definitely not the welcome we want for our guests, and we're sorry you had to pick up candles to deal with it. We've since run an ozone machine to fully treat the space. We're glad you still had a nice stay and hope you'll give us another chance to host you!
So nice to walk in and everything was as expected! The house is very well appointed. It is a really nice 2 bedroom cabin. Nicely decorated and updated.It is across the street from the Florida river with fishing access.We had our two dogs with us. There is a nice yard for them and some beautiful walking areas nearby.There is a very nice wood burning fireplace with lots of firewood.The tv was effortless with both local news and many streaming services.This is a very nice spot.

Thank you so much for the wonderful review! We’re thrilled to hear you enjoyed the cabin and found it clean, comfortable, and well appointed. It sounds like the location along the Florida River, the yard for your dogs, nearby walking areas, and cozy wood-burning fireplace all helped make your stay special. We’re so glad everything was easy and enjoyable, and we hope to welcome you back again!

We look forward to having you stay with Vacation Rental Collective again in the future!
This was a great cabin! So cute and relaxing. The kitchen is fully fully stocked with everything you could want. The bed was very comfortable. They have some many extras including even some dog crates in one of the closet (I brought my own so didn’t used them but they looked like medium size crates). The only improvement I could recommend would be that the grill really needs to be cleaned.

Thank you for being a wonderful host! The property was wonderful and the neighborhood was friendly. The walks and fishing on treasure island were perfect! Morning coffee on the patio waiting for the sun to reach the cabin was one of the high points of every day. When we come back to the area, we will be looking to see if this property is available!

This cabin is authentic as it comes! My family of 4 ( my husband, 3 year old and 2 year as well as myself) absolutely LOVED it! The river, treasure island, and the serenity of it was everything we dreamed! If we could have extended our stay we would have! My son still asks if we can go back to “the cabin.”
Response from VrboOwner on 5 Jan, 2026
Thank you so much for such a wonderful review! We’re absolutely delighted to hear that your family loved the cabin and that it was everything you dreamed of. The river, Treasure Island, and the peaceful setting truly make it a special place, and it means so much to know it created such memorable moments for your family.
Hearing that your son is still asking to go back to “the cabin” truly made our day—that’s the greatest compliment we could receive! We would love to welcome you back anytime and hope you’re able to extend your stay next time.
