Excellent

Historical home has everything you could think of.Shopping,restaurants all within walking distance.Great location. Owners very attentive to every need.

We really enjoyed our stay! The place had all the amenities we needed and was located in a great area. We loved the pool too! We had an awesome time in Bradenton.

Awesome place. Great location near Riverwalk. Very clean - pool was great fun. We visited our kids birth families and this place was perfect!

This house felt like a home in the first half an hour.

The house is stunning on the outside and does not disappoint on the inside! It is also stocked with plenty of dishes and cooking utensils. The owners go above expectations by having cabinets of toys along with multiple pack n plays with sheets. We didn’t need the pack n plays but having a young child, that caught my attention as a nice thing to have when it’s needed. The location was great for strolls down the River walk or to restaurants. There is a park and museum nearby that was also a short walk. Our only issue with our stay was that it wasn’t long enough. We look forward to staying again! Thank you!

We had a fantastic week with our adult and teen kids! It was awesome to have many things within walking distance (Corwin's Ice Cream along Riverwalk and Kefi got repeat visits from us). Day trips to Siesta Key and Anna Maria Island were easy drives. The house is lovely and well-appointed. We made great memories here!

The house was very clean, the location was quiet yet walkable to downtown and the boardwalk. Highly recommend!!!

We rented the home for our son's wedding at Pier 22. The home was beautiful and spacious! We had plenty of room to spread out as we prepared for several wedding events. The back porch/pool area was perfect for friends and family who stopped by to share pizza, and the front porch was perfect for that morning cup of coffee. Our only regret is that we were not able to spend more time to enjoy the beautiful area. Thank you for allowing us to bring our fur babies along too. We truly felt at home!

Absolutely beautiful property. This historic home is so well appointed and in great location near the River and Downtown. We took the grandkids to the natural history museum and had a great time. We loved the pool and the bikes. Michele and Ed are wonderful hosts. We will visit and stay here again!

This house is adorable. Kitchen had everything we needed including a blender. The owners were easy to work with and very accommodating. The set up of the bedrooms and bathrooms is a little odd (a couple of “Jack and Jill” bathrooms, rooms had weird angles), but the house is very old so that is to be expected. The house is only a block off the Manatee River. The riverwalk is great for walking or biking (4 bikes are available for your use). There are lots of restaurants close to the house. I definitely Recommend this house.

This house was even more beautiful in person than the gorgeous photos portray. Everything was new and clean. It worked out perfectly for our extended family and everyone enjoyed our stay! The hosts were wonderful being friendly, quick to respond, accommodating , and helpful. I highly recommend renting the house and would definitely stay again!!

We would gladly stay again!!!!

This couple should not be renting out their house. The wife was a nervous wreck renting out to me and my family after the people who were in there before us flooded their toilet which in turn ruined a downstairs wall and their hard wood floor. I do not blame her for being upset but she called me up to let me know what happened and then continued to tell me how people who she had rented to use too many towels, they are not considered when using the air conditioning in the house and the list went on. When we arrived at 4 pm check in time her husband and the hired man who was fixing the wall were still working and the house smelled of fumes. The husband apologized and put on a few fans and opened windows while the wife walked me through the house going through all sorts of rules including how to flush the toilet properly. There are rules posted all of the house and there is a list of rules in a notebook as you walk into the house that the wife asked me to read through and to please read to my family members. The rules included “no peeing in their pool”. My stomach was sick all the way through the two and a half days that we stayed there. I was working in their kitchen early Sunday morning and I see out of the corner of my eye the husband in the back fenced in back yard checking on his pool which not one of us used. To say the least along with the rest of my family very uncomfortable staying at this house. My family and I are all in our 50’s and 60’s and my one niece who is 16 were really looking forward to spending family time together since we are spread out distance wise and we are all trying to help out and care for our mom who is in a nursing home dealing with Alzheimer’s. This get away was suppose to be a great family gathering including seeing my son, daughter in-law and grandson who live in Florida. My suggestion is to stay away from renting from this couple.

Our family had a great week! We loved the pool, items for the kids & location!

Ed and Michele’s Bradenton river house was the perfect place for our family vacation. It is a beautifully restored old home with all the cozy comforts you could want or need. The pool was the perfect place to cool off after a hot day on the beach. Ed and Michele have thought of just about everything to make sure your time in their home is enjoyable. They are warm and friendly hosts and I definitely recommend their home.

We stayed at the property for a bachelorette party with 9 girls. The house was very beautiful and spacious with everything we needed and more. We will definitely be back!
