We had a great stay. We had a party of nine and every single person was pleased with the home. The hosts were quickly responsive with the few questions we had about the home and our reservation. Thank you for your hospitality!

This was a very nice place to stay if you remain inside. The bedrooms were great, it was very clean & very comfortable with everything you need. It was close to the amphitheater & hard rock which was very convenient. It was not- so-perfect outside due to some dead, floating smelly fish on the lake & very hungry buzzards having a feast. That was disappointing & I’m sure it was just bad timing but it was nasty nonetheless.

Flew to Tampa from Altoona Pennsylvania to gamble at Hard Rock with my husband and mother in law. House was so nice and fully stocked with everything we needed for our stay. The pool was awesome - very warm! Waking up to the birds and sitting outside watching the big white pelicans on the lake was a treat. So were the daily visit from the duck with the funny tail and his black duck friend. He ate crackers out of my hand!
The house has tons of outside seating and lounge chairs around the pool too. It has a huge kitchen table, BIG TVs and very comfortable beds. Our gambling didn't go so hot, but we sure had fun trying. We'd like to thank the owners for the bottled water, their hospitality and letting us have our 4 days of fun in the sun while hitting Hard Rock Casino. Would recommend a stay there to anyone!

Don't even know where to start. We came in town for a Bucs football game. Tim and Sutton are AMAZING. The process itself was so stress free and wonderful. The place is gigantic in real life and all the beds/couches are incredibly comfy. The views are unreal and I have some of the best sunrise photos I have ever taken. We very easily fit 5 large adults and there is definitely room for more. Everything is labeled so you don't have to go searching for things, and they made sure you have everything you would need! The backyard space is somehow even better than the house itself! The pool area is so spacious and lost of seating for relaxing outdoors. I 1000% will be staying here next time we need to stay in Tampa! Thank you guys!!!

Previous reviewers are right - the neighborhood is an odd mix of beautifully maintained homes/yards and those in need of a lot of work. However, we saw moms with strollers, dog walkers, and joggers day and night - my husband went for walks in the early morning and later in the evening and had no issues at all. The surrounding neighborhoods - if you go out for groceries, etc. - seemed a bit more prone to criminal activity. (I've never seen so many security cars patrolling the WalMart parking lot.) I made the short drive to the Temple Terrace neighborhood for restaurants, an oil change, groceries, etc., and found everything I needed and had no issues at all.
The property is just as described. The layout is open; one of my boys uses a wheelchair and had no issue getting around - except that he could only use the master bathroom as his wheelchair wouldn't fit through the door of the hall bath. There is a step down into the "sun room" that leads out to the pool - but if he went outside through the living room, he could access the pool without a step.
I have never been in a rental with such a well-stocked kitchen. Any appliance I wanted was there - toaster, air fryer, three kinds of coffee makers, etc. Previous guests have left the cabinets stocked with aluminum foil, sandwich/freezer bags, etc. There is a whole spice drawer - I mean, I know that seems gross to some, but I'm okay using a previously used jar of chili powder - thanks for leaving it!
Beds were comfortable. There were plenty of linens. There was a drawer of games and puzzles. A/C worked well. Grill worked. TVs in the living room and master bedroom both worked with Netflix and Amazon.
The view from the master bedroom, living room, and pool area was pretty and peaceful. The lake was quiet - we saw one boat the entire week we were there. In fact, we only saw immediate neighbors while in the back yard once during our week-long stay. The pool was clean, but the deck could use a good cleaning, there's a broken cover that needs to be pitched, and there is an odd assortment of patio furniture in the yard and on the pool deck. I think I counted seating for at least 20 outside. We used the pool every day. There is also a good assortment of pool floats/toys which we added to. The diving board is gone, which was disappointing.
Host was in town while we were there. He asked permission to go into the garage, and was friendly and available if we needed him.
Absolutely will stay again.

Large enough that everyone could stay together or have their own space. The pool is fantastic with a deep end. The lake can be seen from inside the house or while sitting by the pool. Would not suggest swimming in lake, as we did see a gator on multiple days.
We visited Ybor City, Busch Gardens, and Zoo Tampa. All were within 20 minutes of property and didn't require interstate travel. We also went to a Tampa Bay Rays game and to Clearwater Beach. These 2 activities took 45 minutes to an hour of travel.
House was clean and the property owner stayed in communication before and after the trip. We would recommend to any family that enjoys privacy and easy access to the activities that Tampa has to offer.

Excellent value. Very clean and well furnished. Good central AC. Plenty of towels and linens. Neighborhood is old but well kept. Just wish there were more good places to walk or jog nearby. Convenient easy going location. Long drive to beaches and Disney but that’s fine by us. We preferred having the space and private pool. All was as advertised.

Had a great time in this home which is perfect for hosting a larger group of people...open areas, lots of seating, big rooms, fully stocked kitchen. Not necessarily walking distance to the casino though. Pool had issues and the mgmt company was very responsive. The neighborhood is not the best but the home was secure and we felt safe. We would definitely stay there again!

Great place to stay with a pool on a lake. Everything was great. Great sleeping arrangements for a large group. The owner even replaced the couches while we were there. Only negative comment is that the kitchen table seats were very uncomfortable, but that can be fixed. Would definitely stay there next time I'm in Tampa!
