We stayed for a week with our immediate family, 2 adults and 6 kids. The house had plenty of room and was very simple and charming. The kids loved the pool and fishing from the canal. Highly recommend the quiet neighborhood located just a few minutes drive from New Smyrna’s dining and shopping district.

This house was amazing, beautiful and perfect location. We had one minor issue and Mrs. Rachel handled it immediately. Highly recommend staying here!!

I hesitate to write this review because I only like to say positive things, but when I read all the other reviews I felt 100% certain that we had found the perfect place. I need to be completely honest so that a future renter isn’t surprised like we were. The house itself was spacious and lovely inside. The front porch swing is delightful to sit on and look out at the lake (as long as you keep your eyes forward). I had read other descriptions and was expecting it to be super well appointed, but I found many things missing. It was probably a one off, but we had no soaps or shampoos, no dishwashing detergent, one broken hair dryer, the one adult bike had two flat tires and couldn’t be pumped up and the other was a child’s bike, so it was too small for us to use. (That was a big deal for us, as we had planned to ride bikes all over and the bike rental store in town was closed for the week.) The bed in the master bedroom was a Comfort Air, but one side did not pump up, so it was super saggy. Rachel was incredibly responsive to our needs, but it was frustrating to have to text each day with some little thing. We also wish there were black out curtains in the downstairs bedroom as the garage light shown directly into it. Rachel’s husband did turn out two of the outdoor lights shining in, but there was still one more that couldn’t be turned off. The garage door remote did not work after the first day, so we didn’t have access to the one of the paddle boards (luckily we had taken one out on the first day, so we at least had that, but my teenagers wanted to paddle board together and couldn’t). The pool was nice looking, but we had chilly weather so the water was too cold to swim. Lastly, this is by far the nicest house on the block. That was my biggest shock. I felt a bit uncomfortable being surrounded by houses that looked abandoned. I imagine that in 5-10 years all of those houses will be either knocked down or renovated and it will be a lovely street because it’s a convenient location, but for now it’s pretty rough. Again, I feel badly writing this, Rachel was lovely to work with, but there is a long punch list that needed to be attended to and the neighborhood really is a bit dodgy.

Beautiful home on a lake in a great area of Orlando. We would rent it again in a flash. Thank you!

Our family very much enjoyed our stay here. The home was nice, comfortable and well taken care of.

Great house!

Thank you so much! This was THE perfect place to stay for our Winter Park wedding! My daughter and new son in law were so pleased ...want to rent it each year as our go to place to celebrate again and again this wonderful occasion! Great family and friend memories were made throughout our stay!

Roomy, beautiful, swimming pool, across from lake. Used stand up board (for the first time). Loved sitting on the swing looking at the lake. Would definitely rent again.

We stayed there for 3 weeks over the summer and cannot be more positive about it. It is a great house, spacious, clean, really good condition. The location is the best!! Close to a wonderful lake and also close to some shops for the essentials. The owners were great at communication and went the extra mile for my family. We have already booked for next year!!

The house was just beautiful & felt very comfortable during our stay. The pool was ideal for the hot summer days. I'd highly recommend this property to anyone traveling with a large group or hosting friends & family while you're in town.

Our family of 7 has rented properties through VRBO in FL for over a 15 years and I can honestly say that I have never, and I mean never, experienced such an incredible house, location and owners-EVER. This house has every possible amenity, and then some...not to mention, everything is an upgrade from soap, towels, kitchen ware, floors, furniture, artwork, salt water pool, TV's...you will never find yourself saying, "Gee I wish this house had..." it'll never happen, this house has everything. Also, as a long time VRBO'er, most homes have a "do and don't" book that is quite frankly, over done and insulting, "don't turn the A/C down below 75 degree's or we'll charge you for the service trip to unfreeze the unit...etc." Rachel and David assume and respectively so, that you will use common sense, treat this completely remodeled house with the care and the love they have put into it, so that other VBRO'er can enjoy this house for years to come...so if you want a charming, romantic, sunset-filled, lakefront, amazing house will absolutely everything...this is THE house.

Our family rented this property for several months this past winter. The home is as advertised with many amenities and convenient to many stores and restaurants. The sunset views are also fantastic. Rachel and David were incredibly responsive. We plan on renting this again next winter!
