This was the perfect home to rent for me and my husband to get away from the day to day in Michigan. The property is beautiful, clean and has everything you need for a stay. The outside area and pool are spectacular and it was the perfect location to see the sunrise every morning. Thank you to Don and Kriss for hosting us and allowing us to stay in this wonderful home!

This house was truly a sanctuary away from it all especially during this time of COVID. The house is the cleanest one we have ever rented. The kayaks were awesome to have right there. Had a marvelous time and would go back again.

Beautiful bungalow!
We really enjoyed every minute of our stay in this fabulous rental! The owners gave consideration to every inch of this Floridian bungalow in regards to cleanliness, comfort, play, and visual enjoyment. This home was sparkling clean throughout, as well as outdoors, and wonderfully decorated. Definitely not the “devoid of decor and character” vacation rental that is so typical. A lot of love has been put into this home. A well stocked kitchen, bathroom amenities, plenty of towels, super comfy linens and beds along with beautiful landscaping, and incredible pool and lanai. We loved the river views and had lovely sunsets nightly. Because of the current pandemic we spent the majority of our time right “at home” and made use of the pool and pool table. It was a perfect place to celebrate our 31st anniversary. We enjoyed the close proximity to Tarpon Springs and did our best to eat our way through the awesome restaurants there. Our week flew by way too fast and it was really difficult to leave this perfect paradise. We definitely hope to return soon. Without a doubt our favorite vacation home we have rented. Thank you, Kriss and Don for all the thoughtful extras you have included in this home that contributed to a perfect vacation for us!!! Cheers.....

Loved this Property!!!
This property had absolutely everything you thought you needed and some things you didn't even realize you needed. Two of our recipes required a potato masher which we forgot but no worries, there was one there of course. They have thought of everything. I think it is the cleanest property I've ever stayed in. You could never leave the property and have an excellent vacation with the large pool, dock for fishing and kayaking and pool table inside with games and puzzles as well yet it's located very conveniently to enjoy the beach, good food, historical locations and amusement/entertainment locations. I can't recommend this property enough! We hope to go back someday!

Best and Most Relaxing Vacation Ever (Even during the middle of a pandemic)
This trip was amazing. If you want a place to relax and feel like you are on vacation without exposing yourself to covid, this oasis is PERFECT! During our stay, the temp was in the low to mid 90's with heat index in the 100's. It was very hot, but floating in that pool made the weather feel absolutely wonderful. We'd go kayaking in the morning when it was cool and then hang out in the pool the rest of the day. When we took a break from the sun, we'd head into the house to play pool. We honestly had the best time. This is such a great property. Since the pool is screened in, you don't have to worry about bugs.. That was a huge plus for me. We started the week with a Walmart grocery pickup and didn't have to leave the house all week. The kitchen was well equipped and the owners go above and beyond to make this a great experience. We had a hard time leaving and can't stop day dreaming about this property. Many thanks to Don and Kriss for sharing their little piece of paradise with us.

Wonderful Rental
This home rates right up at the top of my list of rentals that I have stayed at over the years. Everything that you could possibly want or need was available. The location is great for nearby attractions, shopping and grocery shopping. The pool is ultra clean and large. Fishing and crabbing off the dock area is an extra bonus. We did not take advantage of the bikes or kayaks but they were available to us. We do plan on returning to this rental again.

A relaxing stay enhanced by a beautiful home
We stayed for 5 weeks at this unique property. The neighbourhood is quiet and safe. Having access to the water from the property was a real treat. We went kayaking almost every day, and there is so much to see within an easy kayak of the house. The house itself was exceptionally clean, and was full of everything that we needed. The covered outside deck was useful on the very hot days so you could be outside without being in the sun. The pool is a good size for a backyard pool, and provided a great place to cool off. We could not have been happier with our choice of this home. Over the first few days, I communicated with the owners with questions as they arose. They responded promptly with the information we needed. The house is a good size, and the garage provided a good storage area for items we did not need often. Highly recommended.

Fabulous holiday in Holiday
We loved our week over New Year. Great location got nearby Tarpon Springs and Dunedin plus various local beautiful beaches for amazing sunsets and within easy trips to Clearwater, Tampa and St. Petes. Solar powered pool a little too chilly for use this time of year though

Great property in close proximity to major attractions
We enjoyed our stay at Lodestar very much. It was just what my family was looking for...something clean and affordable, with a pool and an area to fish...within easy driving distance of Clearwater and Tampa. That is exactly what we got. We mostly needed a home base to do what we wanted to do on vacation...visit Clearwater, Tampa, Busch Gardens, Weeki Wachee and Caledesi Island. It was exactly what we got. We had room to spread out, a place to relax and unwind and to swim and fish...we never drove more that 40 minutes to get to do or see all that we wanted, which was reasonable. We were a tad concerned diving up to the property, as it seems to be in a much older neighborhood...but once inside the house the photos are entirely accurate... The house is clean and spacious. The view from the living area and pool are wonderful. May not be the most modern, but we had all of the comforts of home, including a huge garage. Although we brought our own fishing poles, we saw many there, as well as baskets for crabbing (we had no luck), bicycles and 4 kayaks. Pool toys, inflatables...life jackets...kitchen utensils and condiments...even spare light bulbs. We were totally well equipped for our stay. We did catch many fish from the floating dock...but only catfish...big catfish...
We used the kayaks and swam in the pool when we weren't dodging raindrops. Visited the Sponge Docks and had a good Greek meal. I recommend going over to Caladesi by ferry...we had a great time there. We drove to Johns Pass one day to get out of the incessant rain and found a great little village (that was thankfully dryer) to shop, eat and jet ski. Great for a hay---or half day trip. Did not know how close we were to Weeki Wachee...and it being the summer it is a great bargain at $13 per person (including parking) to see the famous mermaids and to let the kids swim in the natural springs and use the water slides... Nice slice of old Florida that I heard my parents talk about growing up. Wish we had better weather...that would be all that I would change. Otherwise, this is a very nice, affordable get away if you want to beat the crowds and spread out.
Thank you so much for allowing us to stay in your home.

Dennis & Cathy We enjoyed our stay in this wonderful rental, and would definitely recommend this place, and would rent this again. It was peaceful and quiet the whole time. The bonus for us was the pool table with a lot of room. The place was well stocked with all the essentials that we needed. The stores and restaurants are within 10 minutes.

So relaxing!
This place was a wonderful, relaxing place to get away from the cold of Connecticut! So wonderful to wake up to beautiful sunrises sipping coffee on the veranda that overlooks the river and covered pool! The pool was clean and inviting to swim in everyday and the kayaks were a nice bonus. We got to see eagles, herons and fish jumping out of the water - but the highlight was to see a manatee munching on the sea grass in the late afternoon!
The house was very clean, lots of beach and bath towels available to use and the kitchen was equipped with plenty of condiments, paper towels and other useful items. The house was close to stores and easy to get anywhere- Tampa, Clearwater, etc.
I would definitely recommend this place to anyone wanting a peaceful, relaxing stay- we didn’t need to go to the beach- with the pool and river right at our fingertips! We would love to stay here again when and if in the area!

Champion review
My boys and I had a great stay at this home. It was clean and very comfortable. We had no problems here. Another plus is that it was just minutes away from a variety of beaches and kid and adult friendly places. The pool was an absolute hit with my boys. Thank you so much to the owners, Don and Kriss, for this opportunity to stay here.
