As described and reviewed. Enjoyed the tropical setting. Pool was shaded, clean and refreshing. Hot tub was clean, relaxing and well maintained. Fish pond was amazing. Saw a white Egret(bird) at the fish pond upon arrival. We got settled in and were relaxing on the front porch, pond within feet away. Found fish food container on our table. Sprinkled some around the pond. No fish appeared. Next day we went about town. We found a fish store and bought 20 gold fish at 48 cents each. Put them in pond when we got back. Probably should have asked first, but we are a pond owner also. We put a little food in for them. After a few minutes the food had spread across the pond. Then, in a moment, the pond erupted with many many fish! The first night they stayed at the bottom because of the bird. Anyway, it was a great place to chill and wind down. Plenty of beautiful beach n things to do. The owners were great and made sure everything was there for you to chill and enjoy. Great job by all who make this place special.

The property is everything the description and photos depict. Grounds are like staying in a piece of paradise.
The Mermaid cottage is furnished with period furniture and the bedroom looks out over the beautiful lagoon pool patio. We were not "wanting" for anything more during our stay. Our host was very responsive.
The location was perfect for short rides into town. Parking on the property was plentiful.

Beautiful property! Close to downtown Dunedin, shopping, restaurants, beaches, etc., but felt like you are a million miles away because of the lush tropical landscape.
Accommodations are well appointed with everything you need for a wonderful getaway.

We really enjoyed this property! It was like being in a tropical garden. We stayed in the Mermaid Cottage for our 30th anniversary. Very convenient to downtown Dunedin and Honeymoon Island & Caladesi State Parks. Several good restaurants and breweries close by. Owners live on site and were very friendly.

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The property is clean and well maintained. The owners did a great job creating a little tropical oasis where you can kick back and relax. Our favorite part was the hot tub. Especially at this time of the year when the temperatures drop at night. Only a 15 minute drive to Honeymoon Island State Park. The room includes beach towels. They also have a few beach chairs and bikes that you can use while you're there. Recommend eating at Prohibition Dunedin. The brisket was delicious.

If you’re looking for a romantic getaway, this is the place. There is more than one cottage on the property, which I don’t recall if that was mentioned in the listing, but each one is pretty private. Absolutely loved the lush tropical gardens with whimsical yard art, wind chimes, fountains, swings, hammocks, and colorful lighting in every nook and cranny. The turtle/fish pond was delightful. The swimming pool very relaxing. Inside the cottage was just as adorable as the outdoors. Location is conveniently close to (but not walkable to) historic downtown Dunedin and beaches. It’s located off a Main Street and next to a mobile home community, but once you drive in, you are transported to a tropical oasis. Would definitely return!!

My husband and I loved our mid-week stay at this property. As soon as we pulled through the front gate, we were greeted with beautiful tropical landscaping and so many thoughtful features. The turtle and koi pond were lovely and we enjoyed the pool and hot tub too. Drinking our morning coffee by the pool was perfect. Our rental included everything I can think of, was super clean, comfortable and beautifully decorated. We were very impressed with the level of attention to detail. Would definitely come again and highly recommend as the perfect little getaway spot and a great launchpad to explore Pinellas county.

My husband and I had driven to Miami to visit our son and then wanted to spend some time on the gulf. 2 nights was not enough. We could have stayed another day or two easily. We enjoyed the pool and foliage immensely. If you need a retreat from the craziness, this is the place.

Beautiful property. Everything was very clean on the inside and the outside and surrounded area was so beautiful! Such a relaxing and mellow vibe with the years of landscape and palms they have . Definitely a peaceful oasis. This one is a must visit! I hope we will be returning in the near future.

Recently, we had the pleasure of staying at the Grove Keeper's Collective. We were impressed immediately with the immaculate grounds teeming with lush tropical vegetation and picturesque fish and turtle ponds. Our stay in the Mermaid's Cottage was extremely comfortable and relaxing. It was very spacious and carefully planned out with lots of unique and artistic touches. The amenities, including the pool, hot tub, and grill were literally steps from our door. The location is quiet and mere minutes from downtown Dunedin. Lori and Gary could not have been kinder and more hospitable. They made sure we were very comfortable, and even invited us to a cookout! If you are looking for a relaxing getaway in a beautiful location, this is truly the place. It really is a tropical oasis!

So if you want to hang out on the gulf coast. Go check out this property. It is clean, quiet, has comfortable furnishings and is tastefully decorated. The landscaping and outdoor amenities are exceptional. Bye the way the property owners are gracious hosts and not intrusive in the least. Don't waste your money on overrated, overpriced hotels. You won't be disappointed.

What a beautiful place! The grounds were very tropical and beautiful! We enjoyed the pool area and we were the only ones that seemed to be enjoying it! The pond was beautiful too. Inside our mermaid cottage was beautifully decorated and spacious. We want to come back soon!

The process of renting the property was so smooth. Lori was always quick to reply with any questions I had. The property itself was very well taken care of. You can see that the owners take much pride in their rentals. The homes were fully stocked with everything you could possibly need. The location was also conveniently close to the ocean and shops around town. My daughter and I took this trip together for some bonding and memory making. We are so in love with Dunedin, we plan to come back soon to visit with my husband so he can fall in love, too. Then in 2-3 years, we're moving here!! Dunedin is heaven on earth!!

Serine zenlike gardens for a relaxing getaway with easy access to all amenities Dunedin has to offer. Lagoon style pool and hot tub. Wonderful grilling and lounging areas. Our dog Daisy was fascinated watching the turtles and fish in the coy pond. Gary and Lori are wonderful hosts.

Never thought a place in town could be secluded and peaceful until we got there...
The place is amazing and so are Lori and Gary!
I'm not sure whether we spent more time in the pool or hot tub but we enjoyed every minute. Close enough to take a quick trip to the beach or do a little shopping or nice dinner yet far enough away to relax for the rest of the night...
It was a great honeymoon in an awesome private oasis!! Already planning the next visit!
Tell the turtles I'll see them soon!!
