Amazing!

This stay was perfect! After having another vrbo rental cancelled on us last minute, this home was perfect for our family! We really enjoyed our stay together and Eric was always a text or call away!

Hurricane Retreat

Great house. Super clean and close to everything. We felt like we were in our own home. Thank you so much for a great stay while we avoided Hurricane Milton in Tampa.

Plenty of room

We had a large group of family and the family Golden Retriever. The house was immaculate and very comfortable. The yard was great for Sage to run around and play. We had a fantastic stay.

A perfect place to stay if you have a large family

I came to Tallahassee and was able to find the property listed for a very reasonable price. The owner of the property was very kind and made sure everything was perfect. The home is located in a nice area. I would love to stay here again if traveling back to Tallahassee.

Great Central Tallahassee Location - FSU

This property is a hidden gem in the heart of FSU/FAMU Campus area. New to VRBO and definitely lives up to the photos provided. Host had wonderful Southern hospitality; an older home was newly renovated throughout. Upstairs was outfitted in FSU and a sanctuary for children/teens. Only a few updates that would take this property over the top into uber luxury status: 1) Upstairs bathroom shower really only available for those 5'9" or less due to slopped ceiling. 2) Exterior windows could use the same TLC as the beautiful interior. 3) Might consider headboards for the beautiful beds... but, they sleep really good!!! - Again, great VRBO that is well worth a repeat visit any time we are in the area again... will be requesting this property.... LOCATION! LOCATION! LOCATION!
