About this house rental

Luxuriously updated 3 bedroom, 3 bathroom property located in a private setting on a lake with a newly constructed dock for fishing essentially in north Tampa! Enjoy quiet and idyllic surroundings, yet close to Busch Gardens (6.4 miles and 15 minute drive), USF/Moffitt Cancer Center (4.4 miles and 12 minute drive), and downtown Tampa (12 miles). Easy access to major highways (0.25 miles to 41 and 2.5 miles to highway I-275). The beautiful beaches of Clearwater are 36 miles and a 45 minute drive away.

The home has been newly updated throughout with luxury features. Expansive views of the beautiful lake can be enjoyed from numerous large windows in the kitchen and living room and a French door in the master bedroom.

The single story home features a large kitchen with over-sized island, adjacent formal dining room, a large living room with a baby grand piano, and a laundry room with state of the art washer and dryer. The spacious master bedroom has 2 king beds, a sitting area with sofa and lounge, and a large private luxury master bathroom with a soaking tub and a frameless shower all surrounded by beautiful travertine tiles. A large French door with views of the lake leads to a private new paver patio with lounge chairs. The second bedroom has two full beds, and has its own private bathroom with shower. The third bedroom has a bunk bed with 2 twin beds. All beds feature luxurious high-end thick mattresses as well as high quality bed sheets of at least 1000 thread count.

The brand new kitchen features an over-sized island, maple cabinets, granite counter tops, high-end stainless steel appliances including a 36 inch induction stove, and a wine cooler. Beautiful tile work throughout all 3 bathrooms and the kitchen. French pattern travertine tile floors in the kitchen, living room, dining room and bathrooms, and high-end vinyl flooring in the bedrooms.

There is a 65 inch smart TV with sound bar in the family room with cable TV. All bedrooms are also equipped with large smart Roku TVs (50”, 50” and 43”) including Netflix, news channels and many others. There is a Blueray/DVD player in the master bedroom as well.

The house is located directly on a beautiful fishing lake, which is about 30-40 feet behind the back of the house. The covered lanai in the back of the house flows seamlessly from the living room and has a large wood patio dining set, where the guests can enjoy unobstructed lake view. There is a stained-concrete patio outside the lanai featuring a conversation set and a Weber grill. There is also a stone table and stone benches located close to the lake. Guests can enjoy fishing and watching abundant wildlife on the lake including ducks, eagles, herons and various types of exotic birds.

The house is secured in the front and back by 24/7 monitoring cameras, and the side and back yards are completely fenced. The house is wired with a state-of-the-art Nest smart thermostat.

We had a great family vacation. The small lake was full of wildlife and it was a quiet neighborhood. The house was just the right size for the 5 of us and very clean. Our only complaint would be while the couches are cute they are not comfortable. Other than that, I would highly recommend it.

We had a lovely five day stay at Michael’s house. It has nice updates and there was plenty of room for our party of seven. A very welcoming space and felt very homey with a really nice aesthetic. The master has two comfortable king beds plus a little seating area that worked perfectly for the teens to huddle up and play video games at night. The other two bedrooms were comfortable size also, not quite as roomy. The showers all had rain shower heads so it was relaxing after a long day in the sun. The kitchen was also nice with a great island to gather around and plenty of seating in the dining room and lanai. We did a lot of cooking so the limited pans and bowls/serving dishes was a little disappointing but there were plenty of glasses and plates to eat on. I would suggest if you plan on cooking to bring along pans for the oven and spices. A couple of little quirky things, there is no door on the bathroom in the master and a see through door in on the other on-suite so privacy is limited. Also the thermostat was constantly adjusting and the house did not get very cool. There are no fans so we just went and purchased one to help regulate the air flow and to help cool down the rooms with no vents. The teens throughly enjoyed themselves fishing off the dock. They spent hours out there and there are plenty of fish eager to take the bait. The homeowner was very accommodating and answered questions quickly.

This house was perfect for our family of four adults (parents and two adult offspring). Each bedroom had its own bathroom, two ensuite and one just across the hall. The rooms were spacious, especially the master bedroom. The beds were comfortable, too, with plenty of pillows. The backyard was beautiful, with a calm lake setting. Overall, the location was convenient, though there are two caveats: it's an older neighborhood with a mix of mostly older and a few newer homes, and the street is narrow so neighbors park on the street, including on the edge of the VRBO property and directly behind the driveway (making backing out a bit difficult). Second, there are railroad tracks very nearby. That didn't bother us in the master bedroom, but family members in the other bedrooms said they were awakened by train horns. Both were more minor inconveniences than major problems. The best things about the property were the sparkling cleanliness; the convenient, fully-equipped modern kitchen with icemaking refrigerator, island seating, and open floorplan; the lovely lakefront backyard; the pet friendliness (yay! Our sweet Cavalier enjoyed flopping down on the cool tile, and loved chasing lizards); the comfort of each bedroom having a TV, even if we never did figure out how to make the cable in the living room work; security cameras for safety; the lack of hidden fees (some VRBO owners add ridiculous charges like "additional guest" fees even when the number of bedrooms exceeds the number of guests); and the convenience of check-out (there were no elaborate requirements to strip the beds or perform other tasks that are typically included in cleaning fees). The location was convenient to Lutz, Carollwood, and north Tampa.

The area and the home were very serene and a beautiful way to relax in Florida. Mike was quick to answer our concerns. We hope to return again.
