A place to stay
We just need a place to stay a few days to go to a family and friends get together to say goodbye to my brother. That having been said, it would be a great vacation house, and cheaper for 4 people than a hotel in the area.

Birthday Celebration
We had a great stay. Place as advertised. House very well equipped - abundant plates, glasses and various kitchen accessories including a nice outdoor grill allowed feeding our group a cinch, while bikes, kayaks and beach chairs were very much appreciated. Games and blocks were well used by the toddler in our group along with a visiting cousin. Our host Lauren was easy to communicate with, and patiently helped resolve an issue we had with VRBO. Thanks for a very enjoyable stay Lauren!

Hidden gem
I cant give this place 5 stars bc that would be a 100% house and we all know that unusual! But this place had everything! Tons of games, Tupperware, coffee pots etc they just about thought of everything and the huge living room wow thats nice! The tubs were a little outdated however that dont bug me at all also could have a little lighting out back on the patio however the neighbors house lights it up enough to see. Over all tho i would rent this little gem again!

College recruiting colleagues
The house had a great layout for the group of coed colleagues staying together. Plenty of space, rooms, furnishings. It had great amenities with laundry, and a closet full of games and access to bikes. Although we did not get to enjoy the property much because we were working a lot, it was a great experience and House. Highly recommend, Lauren was also willing to mail back a few things that my colleagues had left in their rooms which is never expected, but greatly appreciated!

Awesome property for big and littles
Communication with the property manager was excellent. She responded very quickly! We found the property exactly how described. We had littles (2 under the age of 3) traveling and her property was equipped to handle our young travelers (pack n play, high chair, dishes, cups, utensils). The property is well appointed with everything you would need for an extended stay (everything listed was provided) as well laundry detergent, dish washer detergent, trash bags). We loved the decor (especially the large lighted anchor which was useful for finding our way home in the evening). The house had plenty of space for our party to spread out and lots of space for the little ones to crawl and dance w/o fear of knocking into something. There were plenty of outdoor activities for older kids. We were very impressed with this rental and wouldn't hesitate to stay there again when staying in the area...We enjoyed our time here VERY much. Thank you for sharing your wonderful property with us!

A well appointed home
With five adults in one house, the concern is always that there everyone will be on top of one another. Not the case here! With several spaces for eating and gathering--both indoors and outdoors-- we had plenty of room. My sister enjoyed the solitude of the upstairs room away from noise. Unfortunately, we didn't have the time or weather to enjoy the endless options for entertainment but trust me, there is no chance of being bored. The kitchen was particularly well equipped as well. The host was responsive and helpful although we had no issues to contact her about, just logistics. Can't wait to go back in a warmer season!

The house was very spacious!! It had enough room for our whole family and allowed for so many family fun activities. We played games, fished and even went to the beach. It was such a joy to be able to be with our family and really enjoy this wonderful place. The house was clean, they provided so many outdoor games/activities and board games. Communication with the property manager was great, she responded quickly to all messages. We will definitely be back if we go back to Bradenton.

Great House For 2 Families
Our stay in this house was perfect! We were a party of eight. Two families. Our family has two parents and twin 10 year old boys. My sister-in-law‘s family is two parents and 11-year-old boy and a 15 year old boy. The house was great for everyone. The younger boys all enjoyed the fire pit, fishing and having a TV in their room. The parents had enough space and the teenager happily escaped to the upstairs loft for privacy. The house was well stocked. The bathrooms had all the necessary toiletries, tons of towels and even some extra things just in case you forgot yours. The kitchen was also well stocked with various small appliances, lots of cooking utensils, pots pans, and even some spices. The host was easy to communicate with an fast to reply. She gave us some great tips on what to do with the kids. The host made it very easy to walk in the door and just relax. Absolutely recommend.
