What a bargain. The value is just plain worth it We needed pet friendly. (The yard isnt fully fenced but is enclosed) I hope the owner changes her policy on weight restriction. 3 bedrooms. The master has its own private exit to deck. The patio doors have an extra lock on them. This was a really nice touch. The house is clean, simple, and a perfect home base. It is unfortunate that VRBO let the rating stay with the disgruntled person. It was not deserved. This is a secret clean house. Besides your personal stuff, i dont know what else i would bring. We did bring extra sheets to put over furniture. The grill, outdoor eating is outside of the pool cage. Mosquitoes werent to much of an issue. Morning sun stay on pool area until about 2 pm. Then there is a ton of shade and it makes you want to hang out. Lots of places to eat drink. Chubbyz, gatorrzz, charlie fixtro brewery, dannys food truck, codys, ... then punta gorda right across bridge. There is a local small beach about a 15 minute bike ride.. In summary. This a great home base. Easy access. Things to do for everyone in the evening hours. Small but refreshing pool. The extra bathroom has an outdoor pool access. Enjoy.

Great place close to everything

This house needs a few key things before it’s re-rented: An exterminator, professional cleaning service and a heater for the pool being at the top of the list. We Intended to stay at Carolyn’s house for 2 weeks and had to leave early due to the state of the property. The thermostat kept losing power causing for condensation to build up on the windows and creating a very muggy home - not condusive for an infant, toddler and someone recovering from chemo and radiation. When I asked the property owner to rectify the situation, she said a handyman would come over - he never showed up to fix the situation. Upon arrival we found the glass stove top cracked, only allowing for 1/2 of the stove to be used. When I reached out, she said she knew but didn’t attempt to communicate that with us prior to arrival. We killed multiple cockroaches and there were a ton of carpenter ants in the bedroom with the queen bed. Both bathrooms had mold in the showers, and the windows/windowsills were crusted with dirt and grime. The seal at the entry way was 1/2 ripped off. Finally, the smoke detectors kept going off at 3am, waking up a house full - including the toddler and infant. She didn’t even make an attempt to have this issue fixed. The listing didn’t disclose that there wasn’t a pool heater - essential to a January rental in Florida. I do not recommend anyone stay at her property until significant changes are made.
