Birthday Celebration
Gino's home worked perfectly for us to celebrate the 80th birthday of our oldest bother. Four of us brothers and our spouses travelled to this beautiful five bedroom, three and a half bath home easily accessible to The Villages for the celebration. The bedrooms and baths were all very comfortable and modern. Gino met us for a quick tour and was available to answer any questions or problems which might have come up. Overall our stay was very enjoyable. I would definitely recommend this home for anybody looking for a trip to the area of The Villages where you are looking for a large, comfortable space.

Perfect for Family Reunion
Rented the property for a family reunion weekend. The listing is an accurate description and photos of the the property. The owner, Gino, made check-in and check-out very easy and provided great communication. The property was clean and well-stocked. The pool and hot tub were clean and inviting. We could not have asked for more. I highly recommend this property and host. Gino, my family and I absolutely enjoyed our time in your home. Thank you for sharing your space with us. It was the perfect location. We ended up being a party of 11 and it was wonderful to be able to spend quality time together in such a lovely and inviting space large enough for us to share time and meals together in comfort. We collectively concluded that it is a perfect location, being so close to shopping/dining and yet feeling like you are “out in the country” and in a very peaceful location.

Wonderful stay
We rented the property for a family occasion. The pictures on the website were a good representation of the property and everything at the house functioned well. The property was managed by the owner, who was fabulous. Very informative and available if there were any issues or questions. This is the first property that wasn’t run by a management group and I gotta say, I preferred dealing with the owner who was very approachable and easy to work with. Thanks Gino!!

Amazing Weekend
Just wow! This home is truly beautiful! From the grounds, the pool and hot tub, into the huge main floor, grand staircase leading to 5 spacious bedrooms and 2 full baths, this house had it all! Our host Gino was truly the best. He was very quick to communicate, met us at the property to do a complete walk through when we arrived to answer any questions we may have. Was available via call or text if we needed him during our stay. Our entire family of 16 had a marvelous time and we would LOVE to be repeat renters anytime!! We Highly Recommend this property and its host to anyone needing to stay in the Lady Lake area!!!

A great stay for a large family getaway!
Our big family of ten adults and three kids spent a long weekend at Gino's property and had a wonderful time. The kids played in the pool for hours and the kitchen was the heart of our time together. We were impressed that there were plenty of cooking utensils and plates for our group because we love to cook. There was plenty of room to park multiple cars and having the variety of rooms suited our group well. We would recommend this option to those looking for a quiet, cozy stay big enough for the whole family!

This property was an absolutely amazing stay. Everything at the property was perfect and had zero issues. Is close to good restaurants and not far from ramps for fishing the Harris Chain. If you are looking to come stay here for a fishing trip with a team or several other then check out this listing. It’s the perfect place to stay and safe.

Exceeded our expectations
We couldn’t ask for a better home for a family of 12 to come together for the Thanksgiving holiday. Great location and about 10 minutes away from my father-in-law. We had a successful thanksgiving dinner due to the home be stocked with every kitchen item needed. The dogs loved playing ball, catching frisbees on the 5 acres of land. We enjoyed staying in the home watching football, playing board games and hanging out by the pool area. The massage chair and the hot tub was a fan favorite. The property managers were very attentive from the moment we booked the rental, during our stay and afterwards as well. It was our first time with a home rental and it was a success. We definitely will be renting this home again when we’re visiting my father-in-law.

Great place for a family get together!
We had 4 generations, from coast to coast, staying at Gino's place to celebrate great grandfather's 88th birthday. It was absolutely perfect! The house is gorgeous, with so many interesting works of art and craft and books to look at. We ranged in age from 9 to 88 and there was something for everyone there. We had a blast in the pool, the hot tub, the amazing massage chair (that chair was BUSY!), we played frisbee in the yard, ping pong in the garage, we took great hikes, we barbecued, and we were enchanted by the songs of tree frogs at night. It was a magical time. Gino was there at any time we had a question, and was really communicative from the day we booked til the day we left. The house is close to all kinds of shopping, but just enough off the beaten path that you felt like you had acres and acres to yourself. If we ever have another family reunion in the area, we will absolutely stay here again. Thanks, Gino!
