We stayed at The Country Porch for 2 weeks in late March. It was a great vacation. The house was super clean, nicely decorated and had everything we needed. It was roomy but still felt cozy. We were very comfortable The grounds are nicely kept, and the various plantings are very pleasing. There are so many areas to relax while sipping a cup of coffee or a glass of wine - the screened porch in the back, the backyard to enjoy the sun, the rocking chairs on the front porch, and the very private side yard with 2 lawn chairs and a table in between.
The location is super. Definitely in the country surrounded by homes with large lots. It was not unusual to see farm animals during some of our walks. Though in the peaceful countryside, it is only minutes to shopping, restaurants, and entertainment.
Eddie & Tina were great hosts. They provided informational materials on the area and recommended things to see and do. They responded immediately at the time of booking and when we had a couple of requests during our stay.
We highly recommend The Country Porch for a vacation stay. If we travel to that area again, we will definitely stay again if it is available.

Wonderful location
My family and i stayed here whilst in the US for a family wedding. The house was amazing, beautifully decorated and stocked with all the essentials and more. Eddie and Tina were helpful and easy to contact. When the dryer stopped working, they arranged for a new one to be delivered the next day. Would recommend to family and friends.

Lovely, quiet home
Loved our stay at the home. Beds and pillows were comfortable. Kitchen is stocked with essentials for basic cooking. Our young daughter loved the yard and swing. The hosts checked in with us to make sure we had what we needed. Hope to stay again in the future!

Wonderful 3 week stay in Wildwood. The Country Porch was perfect for us. The hosts were very accommodating when needed. Clean, quiet and comfortable. Plenty of space, including two porches for drinking coffee and listening to wildlife.
We already booked the Country Porch for another stay.

Excellent place to stay
Eddie (host) was super responsive and kind. He went above and beyond getting us things. House was very clean, sheets and towels very clean. Excellent location. Quiet neighborhood. Text all the boxes. No hesitation to strongly recommend this home to anybody, adults or family with small children. I’m very picky about where I stay and how clean the place is. This checks all the boxes.

We were in town for a fishing tournament and we’re worried about parking but the home owners were awesome about letting us park wherever in the back yard.

Nice, quiet location
Good and quiet location.
Just don’t like the fact that we have to wash the sheets and towels. We had to wake up early to do it to make sure it’s done

Family funeral visit
This property and the owners were perfect, the place was cleaned and had all the amenities we needed for a family of 5. They were available if needed but was respectful for our space. Property is gorgeous enjoyed sitting on porch at night with my tea and the adult children enjoying the lizards at night. Thank you Tina and Eddie

What a great find!
We found the perfect location to visit family in The Villages! Our Tennessee front porch sitting tradition met what we hope to be a new Florida front porch sitting tradition at The Country Porch!

A lovely stay in the country
The country porch offered us a beautiful and quiet while also spacious accommodation for our family to stay for the week. A short drive to amenities like banks, grocery stores, churches, while also being out in the country. The house itself was spacious and very clean, with an abundance of linens and towels to use. We enjoyed the porches - front and rear very much especially during the thunderstorms. Some of the storms were very strong depositing multiple inches of rain in a few hours along with heavy gusts right before the tropical storm arrived. But the house held up very well! Highly recommended. Thank you Tina and Eddie for hosting us at your lovely country home.

Beautiful Home & Property!
My family of 5 spent 4 nights here, and enjoyed every moment! The house is beautiful and the bedrooms & beds were very comfortable! They have thought of just about everything to make your stay a great one! The kitchen has a lot of utensils, dishes, mixing bowls, and a variety of pots and pans for cooking/baking, as well as a lot of spices, dry goods & condiments. There was a cabinet of board games, as well as outdoor activities like horseshoes, mini golf set, darts, etc., and even better; the yard is huge!! The owners checked in with us to make sure that we had everything we needed, and knowing we could contact them at anytime via the Ring doorbell or by phone was nice as well. We enjoyed a lot of our time relaxing in the rocking chairs on the front porch, drinking our coffee and watching all of the different birds stop by the feeders to eat. We were here at the beginning of June and the days were very warm, but even at the hottest part of the day we were able to sit on the porch and feel the breeze and enjoy the sights and sounds of nature 😁 You will feel like you are in the middle of the countryside, all while being just a few minutes away from stores & restaurants. We would definitely highly recommend this house to anyone who will be travelling to this area!

Great place in a rural setting but close to the Villages.
Our family of 5 recently stayed at The Country Porch for a visit with my parents who live in the Villages. It was our first VRBO rental, and it was great. Very clean. Well stocked with all that you need, including condiments. Was just a short drive to my parents, and also food stores and restaurants. The owners were actually on site during our stay and they were so friendly. My only regret is not having more down time to just spend there in the spacious yard, which had horseshoes, lawn darts, golf clubs, rocking chairs and more. It is in a rural quiet area. Overall great stay and my parents are recommending it to any family or friends that plan to visit in the future.

Charming and peaceful
We loved it!!!! The house is very cozy, with comfortable beds, nice space in the dining room and kitchen. We loved sitting on the porch, just enjoying nature. The screened patio is a perfect place to read. We also enjoyed the fire pit and the spacious backyard. The street is very calm with occasional cars driving by and beautiful trees with Spanish moss.

Perfect We needed this
We all love to travel but there are times when you need to get away. The Front Porch was the perfect solution for us. Clean quiet, tranquil with a down home country welcome feel. Lots of room inside and out. Barbecuing on the charcoal grill and relaxing around the Camp Fire in the evening was amazing. About an hour to the Gulf, the ocean, or the Disney complex in Orlando made options almost limitless. I could go on but I think you get the idea. This place is a 10.

Not what I expected
The house is very dark- all day.
The neighbor was burning in a pit every day all day. A lot of smoke.
The washer & dryer were loud and not balanced.
It’s set way back and very dark.

Great get-away
Nice, secluded location; but close to The Villages. Plenty of space and kitchen had everything we needed. Beds were comfortable. Great yard for playing with the kids and "exploring" with them. Only negative was floors needed mopping. Would stay again.

Great country house
Beautiful house that was perfect for my wife and I and 4 kids while visiting retired parents nearby. Enjoyed the quiet back road and relaxing on the front porch. Still close to stores and activities for us. Covered parking spot was great to have for the rainy days. House was well stocked with quality pots pans and all utensils. For the price this house was amazing. Inside finishes, paint, floors etc all looked on the new side. We will stay here again for sure when in the area.
