We stayed in Ruskin for 6 weeks in March and April 2024. Dustin, the owner, was great. Responded to any inquiry in an hour or two max. The property is just as it is described. Ruskin is kinda rural for the location. Only 30-45 mins from Tampa, St. Pete or Bradenton, but very quiet. Very dog friendly, only a couple of designated beaches that he couldnt go on. Great parks near by, nice pool at the house, very relaxing - we had a blast.

Property has a few minor flaws like an unscured gate in the fence that is on the property line with another neighbor's yard who has a medium sized dog so didn't feel comfortable letting the dogs off leash as our largest is super friendly and could easily open the gate. Pool is so clean and well kept. Overall house had been cleaned and had fresh linens provided. Will stay here again if in Ruskin!

The location was fine and the owner was friendly. He did come over to greet us and was available by message when needed. The house however was full of personal photos on the wall and clothes in the drawers and closets full of junk and personal stuff. It felt like we were intruding in someone's home, not staying at a generic vacation property. The house looked ok at first glance, but really could do with a deep clean by a professional team. The master bedroom stank of pee ( guessing a previous vacationers pet used the carpet as a toilet). We had to burn scented candles continuously to mask the smell. I strongly recommend the owner removes the carpet and replaces with vinyl if he is going to allow pets. The toilet in the main bathroom ran water at random times, which was a little annoying at night and there was a smoke detector ( or something) that kept chirping outside the master bedroom window. Both of these issues are easy fixes. With a little updating and removal of the personal items, this vrbo would be just great.

The month we stayed there flew by. Thank you for everything Dustin!

we had a very pleasant stay at the property. It had a huge backyard and my puppy went crazy running around all day. It was totally worth to see our pet so happy and excited. The owner is a gem of a person, always willing to help at a moments notice. I would recommend this property to anyone going to Ruskin.

Dustin was a great host, always quick to respond if we needed anything. Great space for our dogs also.

10/10 would recommend the house was cozy and well maintained, we came for a staycation with our family and two dogs. Would definitely stay again!

Perfect spot for our teenagers to enjoy hanging out outside. Everything was great and the host was very responsive. Will stay again!
