Thank you so much, Allyson! So glad to hear you had an amazing stay at Juniper Cove! You were wonderful guests, and I’d be so happy to welcome you back anytime you’re here for an IMG tournament!
What an amazing gem in Bradenton! This is one of the coolest properties we have stayed. The house is super clean, comfortable and well decorated. They had everything we needed. The owners have thought about every detail for every age group. We traveled with grandparents and kids ranging from 4 to 12 and everyone had a blast. Plus the location is fantastic.Jenny is a wonderful host and always got back to us super quick. We will definitely be coming back.

We had the best time here. House was clean, pool and jacuzzi were amazing. And tons of games and fun things to do. Cannot wait to stay here again next time we come back down.

McKenzie! I'm so glad you had such a great time with your family! It makes me so happy to hear all the fun extras hit the mark for your stay. You were fantastic guests and we'd absolutely love to have you back the next time you're in town! 🌴
Amazing house and host! What you see is what you get and then some. Jenny really has thought of all the special details. Our family had such a great time making memories here. Definitely recommend and would stay here again in a heartbeat!
One of the few reviews I have to write that I feel words won’t be able to describe the experience we had at Juniper Cove. Simply amazing. Everyone was in consensus on how wonderful the property was. No detail left out. When we went out we couldn’t wait to get back to enjoy the house. So many fun things to do. We will definitely consider booking again!

Aw, Ackhala! Thank you so much for this kind and amazing review! It truly means the world to hear that Juniper Cove felt like such a special place for your crew. My family and I put a lot of love into the details — so knowing they added to your experience is incredibly rewarding. 💛 You’re welcome back anytime! We would be thrilled to host you again! 🌴✨
My family really enjoyed our time at Juniper Cove. The house was in a nice location and convenient to anywhere we wanted to go. It was clean, well thought out, and had everything we needed. The host was extremely helpful and attentive, and provided knowledgeable, quick responses to all questions we had. There was plenty to do at the house and it was stocked with all we needed to head out to the many close beaches. The only negative was all the time I spent playing Golden Tee, and the fact that I am pretty sure I have to get one for home now....Thanks again, Jenny, for providing a lovely backdrop and facilitating a great time in Bradenton!

Thanks so much, Steve! I loved hearing about your stay — and I have to say, your Golden Tee enthusiasm gave me a good laugh. :) So glad Juniper Cove hit the mark for your trip. You and your family were a joy to host and are always welcome back anytime the Gulf Coast calls. Hope your next getaway brings just as many great memories!
True Slice of Paradise - so much to do & perfect for family, friends or just you and your partner
First what a perfect place to stay during the holidays. It's honestly the perfect size for any combination of family or friends. It feels very spacious and the living area was my favorite with all the fun little arcade games, pool table, and a nicy cozy spot for watching movies. The design of Juniper Cove is also beautiful! The colors really make it feel like a beach getaway.Recommend a dip in the hot tub at night! The location is great too, everything is nearby. Really tasty food and white sand beaches are just minutes away. Our host was fabulous and attentive and communicative, everything was seamless. I would highly recommend Juniper Cove on your next trip! We'll definitely be back!

Blake, thanks for being a wonderful first guest for us! You truly took care of the home as your own and we are so glad you were able to make use of all of our fun amenities and enjoy all that AMI has to offer. We hope you stay again with us!
Jenny has made this house a home for her guests! I visited w/my family of 5 (11-11-8 yr olds). We’ve stayed in 6 properties and this was the best! Super clean (linens smell amazing). It’s about 15 min to the island beaches if you leave early. We are now pickleball champs thanks to the court in the yard. Pool table, pool, hot tub, putting green, cornhole, video games, and shuffleboard kept us entertained & kids off electronics, Jenny communicated promptly and kindly. Book it now! No need to look any more!

Thank you so much, Maysam! I'm so glad your family had a memorable stay! Cleanliness is number one, so I truly appreciate you noticing the extra care we've put into it. It's wonderful to hear that the home felt welcoming and that everyone had fun enjoying the space and fun little touches we've added. Thank you for leaving the place even better than you found it! You and your sweet family are welcome to come back anytime!
Not only was Juniper Cove clean and beautiful but it was pouring with amenities. The pool was always at the perfect temperature. The hot tub was easily controlled by the iPad in the patio. The kids truly enjoyed the pickleball court. Mini golf / cornhole was also a hit. And that's just the outside! Inside the pool table, shuffleboard table and two arcade systems were a lifesaver on rainy days. The host has made sure to include all the little things you think you may need. They even have items that you wouldn't expect. For example we were short a few batteries and were able to get some from the kitchen drawer. All of the beach equipment we needed was included. The AC worked perfectly, the beds were super comfortable. But best of all was the customer service. The Host was extremely understanding to all our needs and very communicative! This is a perfect home for anyone wanting to visit Anna Maria or any of the neighboring beaches. Truly enjoyed it!
What appears behind the door of an unassuming little house is an entertainment extravaganza! You are greeted upon walking in with a pool table,indoor shuffleboard table, Pac-Man and Golden Golf video machines. You head to the spacious porch and find an outdoor Connect Four game and a table that seats 8 or more. Then the outside-pickleball court with paddles and plenty of balls, a pool/hot tub area and then a 4 hole putting green with adjustable height putters-perfect for little and big kids alike! Indoors the rooms are so very well thought out! Each room has its own sound machine -a blessing for not only for those with toddlers but snoring spouses also :). Two of the rooms have a pullout twin chair bed in addition to the main bed. The beds are well made and comfortable. The bathrooms are clean, updated, and stocked with cotton balls and q tips. The guest bathroom has a children’s stool for the little ones trying to brush their teeth. The kitchen is well stocked for cooking. The thing I appreciated is that the owner, as a mom, thought of all the small things that will make a stay, with children especially, much more pleasant. Location is great also-close to grocery,restaurants, park and beaches!

Thank you so much, Karen! ❤️ As a mama, I know how important the little things are when traveling with kids, so it means the world to hear that you noticed and appreciated them. The sound machines, step stool, and extra beds in the master bedrooms were all things I’ve wished for on trips, so I wanted to make sure they were here for other families too! And I love that you made the most of the games, pool, and outdoor fun! is exactly what my family and I envisioned when creating Juniper Cove. 🏡💛 So grateful you chose to stay with us, and we’d love to welcome you back anytime!!
About the host
Hosted by Jenny Anderson
Hello, friends! I’m Jenny, the host behind Juniper Cove. I'm a wife, mom of two, and also the storyteller behind Girl of 10,000 Lakes. As proud Minnesotans who love escaping to the sunny shores of Florida, my family and I are all about outdoor adventures—whether it’s fishing, camping, skiing, or enjoying beach days. Hosting Juniper Cove has been a dream come true because it’s not just about sharing a home; it’s about creating a space where families can reconnect, make memories, and feel joy in a tropical paradise. Fun fact: we named Juniper Cove after our daughter, Juniper, as a way to honor her bright and adventurous spirit.
Why they chose this property
We fell in love with Village Green because it’s the perfect blend of peaceful charm and prime location. This residential neighborhood is tucked away in a quiet, safe area, surrounded by beautiful homes and mature trees. It’s just 10 minutes from the stunning beaches of Anna Maria Island and close to Bradenton’s best attractions, yet it feels like a hidden retreat where you can truly unwind. It's just 4 minutes from the conveniences of Target and Publix. We love how the neighborhood offers tranquility without sacrificing convenience.
What makes this property unique
Juniper Cove is a slice of paradise designed for unforgettable getaways. It’s not just a vacation rental—it’s a place filled with thoughtful touches to make your stay both fun and relaxing. From the vibrant pickleball court, putting green, and game room to the heated saltwater pool and spa in our private tropical backyard, every amenity is geared toward creating moments of joy. Each room is designed with an Instagram-worthy aesthetic. Named after our daughter, Juniper Cove is inspired by her adventurous and joyful nature, and we hope that spirit comes through in every detail of the home. Whether you’re here for the beaches, local adventures, or simply to relax, Juniper Cove is a place where everyone—adults and kids—will feel right at home.
