Very clean and comfortable, nice area! Owner gave good recommendations for places to eat—enjoyed fish at Ricks on the River and a hearty breakfast at Trip’s.

All as described and better in person! Perfect for my wife and I, clean, cozy, comfortable and great location. Easy check in, owners very friendly and responsive. Great deck and sitting area. Totally recommend and would stay again! Thanks!

So my flight touchdown at around 1:30am, and I arrived at the destination my GPS gave me (google maps/android) but it was nowhere near where I was suppose to be. I called the owner, frustrated that I had to wake him up and explaining the situation but he was polite and nice about it and walked me through it realizing I was just literally a couple blocks away. The owner also left a lot of great suggestions as well as activities around the area. I even tried the local taco place down the road and it was amazing for great price! Not only that, I found out I have family there too!!! So whenever I do come back, I'm definitely staying here again.

Wonderful place; clean and comfortable. Very convenient to restaurants, shopping, Universities and Tampa attractions. Bed and couch were extremely comfy!

We had a wonderful get away with beautiful views of the sunset. Would definitely book again!

The property was tucked back from the road, and was an upstairs apartment over the garage. The view from the patio was beautiful. It looked out towards the river. The outside of the building was very rustic, and the inside was new and more modern.

I dont have a single negative thing to say about this property. Its so peaceful, private and lovely. Thank you!

What a perfect stay! Ed and Marianne were such gracious hosts. They gave excellent beach and restaurant suggestions — even lending us beach chairs and towels. We’ll be back!

Absolutely beautiful property, clean and comfy little private house with plenty of space. We Absolutely enjoyed the little extras, like the coffee and waters. Will return.

Very homie, comfortable and clean. Would stay again gladly. Thank you.

My husband & I cannot say enough about how wonderful our stay was at this River Retreat!! As a retired couple,we enjoy a diverse choice in VRBO experiences. Ed & Marianne are incredible hosts. Their accommodations are more than comfortable, it became a private, enjoyable “home away from home” for our 9 nights of experiencing Tampa and its surrounding areas. Both the apartment & it’s upper decking provided relaxing hours after a day away touring. We appreciated every attention to detail in cleanliness and all amenities provided. Secure, private parking and the very comfortable apartment furnishings and king size bed, offer everything you could want / need in a rental home. The owners are a wonderful couple. Ed & Marianne are caring home owners and are always available if needed for anything but truly respect offering their guest’s privacy. We so enjoyed our outdoor deck moments and the scenery it provided. There is so much to do in this area ! Afterwards, at your days end, this cozy abode is a great place to return to… we slept so well at night followed by relaxed mornings. All in all, we couldn’t have asked for a better rental or welcoming hosts. We would love to return again one day. The guest ratings are what originally made us choose this rental. We now know why. Our comfortable stay, the caring hosts are why we can easily state as being the real reason to highly review/revisit this rental. Marianne, thank you for our shared chats and your hospitality. Carol & Dave

We enjoyed our stay and the property was in a great location.

We attended an event in the area and this upstairs vrbo had a cute balcony overlooking the river and everything we needed- a comfy king sized bed, a coffee maker and a nice sized kitchen, and privacy. We may stay there again next year if we attend the event again.

We had our dinners on the deck over looking the river that was about 50 feet away. The unit was clean and well maintained, there is a full kitchen but we did not cook any meals in the unit. Easy access to grocery stores and restaurants in the area.

Very nice 1 bedroom apartment. Everything, really everything you need and more, was there. We enjoyed our stay a lot. We will go back if we have the oppertunity.

Super simple remote access. Beautiful clean apartment . Exactly as pictured

This was a beautiful spot, very relaxing, had a nice large bed that was very comfortable. Nice relaxing porch, I'll definitely stay hear again in the future.

This is a great place… easy access to property. Very clean nicely done well Stocked. Quiet and what a nice view from The balcony! Would absolutely recommend! The owners a very nice ppl and so friendly…

We were attending the luke Bryan concert I do not like hotels

Cute little place. Great view.

Clean, comfortable

This place was so cute and definitely well maintained! The apartment had the perfect amount of space and we had a view of the river from our window. Would definitely stay here again!

The property was exactly as described and Marianne was lovely. Would absolutely stay here again! Thank you for opening Up your home to us!

Owners were very friendly. Everything was great

What a great place to stay! Not only does it have a great water view, but the attention to details the hosts provide really makes you feel at home. Im always nervous of forgetting something when we fly but these hosts think of everything! They even have a binder with suggestions on where to explore in the city or what to eat. We hope to be back soon!

Wonderful accommodations!! Exactly as described :) Would definitely stay here again if given the opportunity to return!

Very nice property just off main road but it's very quiet here.

This is a beautiful place very well kept. Our time there was wonderful! I met one of the owners she was great so great if I come back to Tampa I would rent from them again because I wouldn't want to give my money to anybody else wonderful wonderful people with a wonderful wonderful place I highly recommend it I did take two things from the refrigerator that I want to pay for but I didn't know how to do that so maybe next time

We had an amazing vacation! The place is centrally located to every attraction in Tampa. The place was clean and the owners were very nice. Would definitely VRBO this place again.

Well appointed apartment with beautiful views and everything you could need in a home away from home. Owners nearby to attend to anything you need but dont intrude. Local eateries very very good, casual and friendly atmosphere. Lovely area along the lake. More than met our expectations.

My husband and I enjoyed our stay at the river retreat. It is nestled in a quiet neighborhood yet just a short drive to downtown Tampa and many area attractions. We were happy to see the place was stocked with water, coffee and lots of other items that came in handy during our visit. We are looking forward to staying here again when we visit in October.
