It was a beautiful property. Small but appropriate fenced area for our dog. Pool was nice. Host was friendly and available lf we needed her. We really enjoyed our stay.

My husband and I, along with our dog had such a wonderful week here. The place was clean and comfortable and had everything we could need. Other than the birds, the huge fish splashes, the occasional winnie and moo, (which we loved!!)it was so quiet and peaceful. Just what we needed after a month of house hunting. The view from the house, back deck and dock of Manatee Lake was so relaxing. The pool was huge and sparkling clean! The fenced in yard was perfect for our dog. But the best part was Kristen! She was the perfect host and made sure we had everything we needed. We will be back next year!

Location was optimum for us.

We happened upon this little piece of serenity by chance. We found the property on b*******g.com (booked thru Vrbo) and once we saw the pics, we knew this is where we wanted to be. We just recently moved to FL and are in the process of looking for a home to rent. This properties amenities and 1 room cottage fit our needs/wants. We were unhappily staying in a commercial hotel and didn’t want to stay in another one. The cottage is really a home away from home and you feel that as soon as you walk through the door. The decor and colors are calming and welcoming. The kitchen accoutrements (of which to cook in!) and utensils are abound, bath towels and sheets are stocked, blankets for cuddling in living room, clean pool/deck for swimming/lounging, use of a washer/dryer, 2 wonderful horses and a sweet little calf to watch and enjoy and acers of beautifully landscaped grounds. The vibe here is serene and its far enough away from the hustle and bustle but close enough for market runs. We believe in divine placement and we were guided here for a reason...and we love it! Kristen welcomed us warmly and is the perfect hostess. She has been wonderful for and to our children (and us!!), helping to make their adjustment as comfortable as possible. She's top notch and so is her cottage!
