Our family enjoyed staying at Knot on the Clock. It’s obviously well cared for and the owners have a lot of pride in the home. Laura was super helpful and communicative. It’s a great location— an easy walk to the beach with kids!

Our favorite things about this house were the backyard and the proximity to the beach access! The weather was perfect for our stay and therefore each of the above were used multiple times daily! Laura was an excellent host - always responded quickly to any questions. The house was equipped with anything and everything we needed during our stay. We only wished that there was more storage space (to put and unpack luggage) in the 2nd bedroom. Otherwise, our entire family ages 11-73 truly enjoyed our time at "Knot on the Clock". Indian Rocks was the perfect beach getaway!

We had a wonderful time at Knot on the Clock! The location is amazing. We very much enjoyed getting to know IRB. This is a great home to rent for families - especially the heated pool and hot tub. We enjoyed being able to walk to the beach and explore the town. Laura is on top of everything - very communicative. The home is clean, spacious, the backyard is beautiful - like a private oasis. The beds are very comfortable! We highly recommend you not only visit IRB - but rent this home!

Perfect location
We enjoyed our stay at Indian Rocks Beach. The beach was absolutely beautiful and not very crowded, which is a plus! Our house was in a perfect location. Very close walk to the beach, and to the nature preserve. Also, walking distance to ice cream, coffee, convenient store, and restaurants. Close drive to Clearwater Beach and shopping. Only a 30 to 40 minute drive to Tampa for more shopping, dining, and amusement park fun. The house had a beautiful pool, and the host was readily available. Overall a great place to stay and the location was perfect!

Wonderful, cozy home with backyard oasis
We loved our stay! The home had everything we needed, location was perfect. Toes in the sand within a five minute walk. The backyard with pool, spa, patio with fireplace and tropical landscaping was our own private oasis. This was our second stay at Knot on the Clock and if we return to IRB we would definitely book again. Can’t say enough about Laura - she is absolutely the best hostess! I would rate her higher than a 5 if possible.

Great place and location
Very happy with our stay. The house was nice and clean. The pool and spa was was very nice especially the heated pool was wonderful. The location can’t be any better in terms of location to the beach unless you stay directly on the beach. You are within walking distance to shops, restaurants, bars etc. They also have a trolly you can ride up and down the strip for only $5 the entire day if you want to explore further north or south.
I have no negative comments and would stay here again.

Amazing place
We really enjoyed this place, the location, and the host.
We brought our 2 year old and it was a great spot for him. The pool area was lovely. The alarms on the doors out to the pool were aggressive, BUT in our case they made us feel quite reassured.

Despite the rain we still had a good time. Kids loved the boardwalk at the nature preserve 2 blocks over. They got to see a dolphin and a manatee. Couldn’t ask for a better location with regards to shops, beach, restaurants.

Perfect space for our family of 5!
We had a wonderful experience here! This house was everything we needed and more for the perfect family vacation. Loved that we didn’t have to worry about packing extras for the beach- the wagons filled with all we could think of were super convenient. My husband and I made a spectacle out of ourselves riding that tandem bike to the French Bakery 😂. Lots of memories to last us a life time. The pool, the kitchen filled with essentials, comfy beds, washer/dryer, perfect location… We will surely be back!

Amazing stay at Laura’s cottage! It really did have everything we needed. The master suite is huge. The spa and pool were awesome! Restaurants and the beach were a short two minute walk away!

Backyard oasis
Great little cottage! It’s all about the backyard though! The pool and hot tub were beautiful with a ton of privacy. Huge palms and bamboo made you feel like you were in your own world despite being in a neighborhood.
Walking distance to beach with cart provided for hauling chairs, toys, etc. You do have to cross Gulf Blvd which is a busy road running parallel to the beach but Laura provided the necessities!
She was a wonderful host and answered all needs/issues promptly.

Great bungalow! Owner thought of everything including firewood and bicycles, toys and chairs for the
We had a great time with the back yard. It was beautifully landscaped and the pool and hot tub were heated. (A little extra $ to add that feature). It felt like an oasis. We had a couple of concerns initially but the owner was prompt in replying. The house itself was very cute and welcoming. Nice neighborhood and convenient to beach, restaurants etc.

Great getaway!
My husband and I decided to celebrate our birthdays with a quick trip with another couple. Everyone agreed that the property is well kept and the perfect size for 2 couples. A short walk to the beach and the owner gave us an excellent restaurant suggestion. We enjoyed the hot tub and conversations outside by the chimenea. Great birthday!
