This is a superb property run by very responsive owners. It was an absolute delight to stay on Tartan Ln with tons of amenities and features. Not to mention the house is close to all the activities of The Villages.

Wonderful house and location

We enjoyed our stay at Willie's place. This house is beautiful very clean and amazingly well stocked. The owners were so easy to work with and very responsive. We did use the golf cart to visit the squares. All in all this was a wonderful experience. This house was the best we have stayed at since renting through VRBO. We truly enjoyed our stay. I want to thank Tami again for a wonderful stay and vacation.

Grandparent Visit!

Second time renting this property. Excellent just like the first time. My daughter eats gluten and dairy free so it’s very important for me to be able to cook when on vacation. This home has everything in the kitchen we could possibly need. We really appreciate how extremely clean the house is. The beds are very comfortable and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay!

Great experience

The house was great! We enjoyed the large family room and the master bathroom was very nice. Only issue we had was that during the day the AC would set itself to 80+ degrees which made getting to sleep difficult. Otherwise it was a great experience.

Response from VrboOwner on 21 Aug, 2024
I'm so sorry about the AC. I wished you had mentioned it. It's a smart thermostat and gets a mind of his own. I could have taken care of it from my phone or showed you how to. I'm sure it was very difficult to sleep with it that warm.

The perfect place for a great stay in The Villages!

I’ve just completed my second stay here and have already planned my returns. I’ve stayed in many houses here in the US, in Europe and Scandinavia and this tops them all. A true home away from home. The house is beautifully and tastefully decorated, the large kitchen is fully equipped for any kind of meal, is perfectly located in The Villages in a quiet neighborhood and the Phaeton golf cart gets compliments everywhere. Tami is very responsive if needed. Look no further….you’ve found it!

A gem in The Villages!

I just spent two wonderful weeks at Tami’s beautiful home in The Villages and I’ve already planned my return. The home is beautifully decorated, tropical but well done and not over the top. The master bedroom and bathroom are large with very roomy his and hers closets. The kitchen is also large and well equipped to cook everything from simple to formal meals for friends and family. The house is centrally located in The Villages on a quiet street away from road noise. Finally, the four-person golf cart will get you anywhere in style. Since it was August I didn’t get to use the hot tub but it looked great. Tami was a pleasure to work with and very responsive to any questions. This is the place you’ve been looking for!
