This is our third time renting this beautiful property. We will be back! Owner is terrific and a great host - leaving us food, wine and treats. Can’t say enough good things, wonderful experience in a great home for both relaxing and entertaining.

We had a fantastic stay at Lori's property! This rental was PERFECT for a family who is looking to relax by the pool. It was also close enough to local attractions (zooo, aquarium, Bush Gardens) for families looking to be out and about.
We have already recommended this property to several people. And we will definitely return to Lori's home on our next visit!

The home was AMAZING...exactly like the pictures. It was immaculately clean. Communication with Lori was easy and comfortable throughout including the whole process of booking, allowing and early check in, meeting her at the house (& her dog Molly:) to ensure everything was in order. She also keeps the kitchen beyond well stocked for her guests and of course we enjoyed her welcome pasta and salad dinner (& bottle of wine!) on our first night there. The home was everything we wanted for our family vacation....beautiful comfortable outdoor space around the pool, including the firepit area and hammock, The location was near stores and resturants, and in a quiet safe neighborhood (enjoyed morning walks). It was also a few minutes from beautiful Honeymoon Beach which we enjoyed immensely! You must eat at Frenchy's near the beach!
I LOVE this home and location and most likely will stay here again if we return to the Clearwater area!!! Beyond 5 stars!!!

This house was perfect in every way. When I was bringing in the luggage my wife was inspecting the house. When I heard the tenth “Wow”, I knew it was going to be good. The house was spotless, all major appliances are top end, and small ones are Cuisinart. The kitchen is loaded with every utensil and condiment imaginable, perfectly organized. The indoor and outdoor furniture are very comfortable, and the layout of the house is perfect. The property backs up to a nature preserve so the are no neighbors visible when sitting outside by the pool. Lori was an excellent host. She had the makings of a spaghetti dinner and wine ready for us when we arrived. We stayed for a month. The landscapers came once a week and used electric mowers, trimmers and blowers.

This property was more than we could have imagined. We have stayed in numerous VRBO homes, and this home far exceeded all our expectations. The home is beautifully decorated, super clean and well maintained. And, yes, the spaghetti dinner, wine, fruit and chocolates were just what we needed after a long day of driving! It definitely felt like a home away from home. It is so well stocked with everything you would ever want in the kitchen which made it so easy to make meals. Every time we had a question the homeowner was very quick to respond and help us out. It all made for a wonderful vacation away from the frigid cold and snow. The location is also perfect for spending time on the beach or a day at Busch Gardens. We look forward to spending time here again!!! Only next time - definitely staying longer! Thank you, Mae, for being such a wonderful hostess.

This was by far the very best VRBO experience we have had in our many years of travel. Lori could not possibly have done more to make our stay at her place more wonderful. She is kind, thoughtful, gracious - simply all around fabulous and went way out of her way to assist us in a difficult situation. This house is immaculate, comfortable, private and beautifully decorated. I would absolutely echo all the amazingly terrific reviews Lori has gotten from her many happy guests. She goes way above and beyond to ensure you enjoy your stay. Top notch in every respect!

This house and the neighborhood are very inviting; we felt extremely comfortable and safe from the start. The decor and layout are exceptional. You can see the entire living area and the pool area from the kitchen, and the master is on the opposite side of the house from the other two bedrooms, which lends privacy. The backyard faces south and gets sun almost all day, and it’s completely fenced in, with plenty of grass. Lori was very responsive, and the entire process was seamless. We hope this house is available next time we are in the area!

Though our flights were canceled due to travel and we were unable to stay at this property, Lori was such an attentive host that we plan to rebook with her in the future. We could not have asked for better communication and kindness. We have stayed at a lot of VRBO’s and never had this level of personal communication. Would highly recommend!

First of all Lori is a wonderful owner, so easy to talk with and very accommodating, The home is beautiful and lacks for nothing. She has it all. If you are staying at this home you didn't go wrong! You picked the perfect place!!
Beautiful home, great location. I wanted to move in!!
Thank you Lori...and until we rent again, God Bless!! Cathy F

We have been using VRBO vacation homes since 2006, and this is, by far, the best one we’ve experienced. First, it has a great location. The beach, Busch Gardens and Tampa are all a short drive away. The neighborhood was very peaceful and perfect for taking our dog for a walk. Second, the property was spectacular. The living areas, both indoors and out, were unmatched by all the other homes we’ve stayed in. The pool is a nice size for everyone to share. Finally, the kitchen was well-equipped with good quality cookware, dishes and utensils. The stocked pantry had everything we needed (even though we brought a lot with us). The whole experience was like staying at our home away from home.

A home for all ages! Traveled with my husband and children ages 13,9,and 4. Clean, spacious, tastefully decorated home. The home is equipped with the works from kitchen appliances, bikes, towels, toiletries, kid toys and books, pool supplies, beach chairs, fire pit, beach toys.% would stay again with or without my children, the home suites any age. The host is an added bonus with her genuine hospitality and attentive nature.

Just WOW!
I can’t say enough about this fabulous host Lori and her beautiful home! She went above and beyond to make us feel welcomed. The home is even more beautiful in person. The house has all the amenities you could possibly need for a great stay. The beds were so comfortable and the entire home is beautifully decorated and spotless. This is definitely the nicest home we’ve stayed at!
The highlight of our week was the outdoor living space with a gorgeous pool. We will most definitely be back!

Wonderful Hospitality
Our family of 6 stayed at Lori’s home for a week, she met us at the home when we first got into town to make sure we had everything we needed and answer any questions we had. Upon arrival she had the ingredients for a spaghetti dinner as well as a fruit and cheese board with a bottle of wine and drinks for the kids, after an 18 hour drive this was very much appreciated. Lori was an excellent host, she made sure that we had everything that we could possibly need including body wash and shampoo, laundry detergent, and all of the things you don’t necessarily think of until you need it!🤣 The kitchen was fully stocked and she even had tons of seasoning and oils to use for cooking. The home itself was in a perfect location for our family, we like to be close to the hustle and bustle without feeling like we’re surrounded by people, Lori’s house was the perfect choice for our stay. We visited Honeymoon Island almost daily, less than a 15 minute drive from the house, beautiful white sand beaches and turquoise waters. Our kids enjoyed the pool every day of our stay, the water temperature was perfect and the pool was sparkling clean. We will definitely book again when we come back!

My family and I enjoyed the week at this beautifully decorated and exquisite home. We didn’t have to worry about anything because everything was provided for us. The owner was exceptional and was top notch. We have traveled all over Florida, and this home by far is the best so far. We will plan on another trip in the near future to stay at this beautiful beach home.

Above & beyond most VRBOs. All the previous reviews & the pics of this VRBO are 100% accurate & spot on! We honestly can't say enough good things about this place & it's host, Lori. It is stocked to the max - all you need to buy is your food & drinks (if you plan on eating in). Plenty of towels, beach towels, some beach chairs, a cooler, shampoo, TP, etc. This VRBO feels like home - cozy, comfortable, clean & complete with all you need to enjoy a vacation with your own private pool. The outdoor living area was superb & our favorite place to hang out - from coffee outside in the morning, watching tv from the pool, sitting around the outdoor fire pit at night with some wine - it was the absolute best! Highly recommend Honeymoon Island beach (only $8 to enter) & only about 15 mins away. It does take longer during the weekends, so plan ahead and go during the week if your stay allows. There is also a ferry there to Caladesi island which also had a beautiful white sand, crystal clear water, beach. There is a Publix grocery store less than a mile from the house which was most convenient.
And yes, the icing on the cake was that we too were greeted with Lori's signature pasta dinner, cheese/crackers/grapes platter & a delicious bottle of wine ....Classy beyond words can describe. We definitely plan on returning & it is no surprise that so many other previous renters are doing the same. Lori rocks!😊😎

Our first impression was "wow'" as we walked into a beautifully decorated open and inviting home and it just got better from there. Not only did Lori welcome us with ingredients for a wonderful meal complete with wine, cheese, salad, pasta and cookies for dessert.... she also let us know that we were welcome to use anything we had access to in the house. This was amazing... from the fully stocked pantry to extras provided in the fridge to bug spray on the patio, to TV options, pool toys, beach towels... I could go on and on. I can't tell you how much we appreciated the generosity and made sure not to take advantage of so much kindness. It is my sincere hope that all of the guests treat this beautiful home and owners well so that they can continue to offer such a wonderful place for others to enjoy.

Very relaxing home with every amenity you could think of. 100% accurate in description. Very busy area but home is situated far enough off the main street that you couldn’t hear a thing. Property owner was awesome and very accommodating. Thank you !

My husband and I just spent two weeks at this property. From the moment we arrived, we were blown away by the comfort of this home and the attentiveness of our host, Lori. After a long day of travel, we so appreciated the cheese board and makings for a pasta dinner being laid out for us. 5 stars isn't adequate to rate our experience. This home is cozy, well-appointed, and in a terrific, quiet neighborhood. Not a place for partiers or large gatherings. Perfect for couples or a family, and especially wonderful if you have a pup. Walking our dogs in the neighborhood was perfect and easy. Sidewalks along all the streets, and hardly any traffic. Wonderful, comfortable bedrooms and a split floorplan provides a very private master suite. Beautifully decorated! Lovely screened lanai and pool area. The photos online don't do it justice. It's even more beautiful in person! Lori is a wonderful communicator and host, but I'll emphasize, we had NO ISSUES that required attention during our stay. Perfection! Thank you Lori! We'll be back!

Just Perfect!
Thanks to an incredibly generous and gracious host, we had a wonderful time in Palm Harbor, FL. Located in between Tarpon Springs, Clearwater and Tampa, this home, just a few miles from the beach, afforded us the opportunity to explore several lovely regions of Florida.
We spent an afternoon in Tarpon Springs indulging ourselves in the Greek fishing town with culturally based bakeries and restaurants galore, had a lovely dinner on the water in Clearwater, and enjoyed the horse races closer to Tampa.
The home itself was both pristine and beautiful. The master was huge with a fireplace, walk in shower and doors directly to the lanai. The other bedrooms were on the opposite side of the house, creating a quiet retreat for everyone. The living room has sliding doors, each with its own track, allowing them to disappear onto the lanai and completely opening the home to fresh air and warm sunshine. The lanai has both an eating area, a lounging area with a TV and a lovely saltwater pool. In addition, there is an outdoor porch and fire pit. The family room was very comfortable and where we spent our evenings cheering on the athletes during the Beijing Olympics.
If you have preschoolers, you are in luck! This home is outfitted with a highchair, bouncy walker, books, padded utensils, a pack n’ play, a stroller and outdoor climbing toys. They are all available for your use.
In addition, the owner went out of her way to welcome us to her home, providing appetizers, a bottle of wine and a spaghetti dinner for our first night, knowing we would be too tired to hit the grocery store, after traveling for many hours.
Five stars for both this home and it’s owner! Thank you for a wonderful week!

The owner goes out of her way to make your stay pleasant!

What a lovely experience we had at your homestead. It started with the owner greeting us with a sincere smile. A perfect way to enter a home. After she showed us her home we were presented with ingredients to make our first dinner, right down to a lovely bottle of wine and a carving board holding cheese, strawberry and crackers. It was wonderful not to have to go food shopping on our arrival
The home was inviting with 3 “decorated” bedrooms and equipped bathrooms. The home welcomes my Yorkshire Terrier, Mr. Baron, of Naples,, Florida
Although there many things to enjoy in the surrounding area we just wanted to cook “at home” in the fully stocked kitchen, sit outside to watch the patio television or just sit with a glass of wine and enjoy the fire pit. The view is of a preserve-magical,
We already plan on returning a few more times before we head up to our summer home in Naples
Yes it was above our expectations!

An unforgettable Thanksgiving
My boyfriend and I hosted my family for Thanksgiving at Lori's beautiful property and it was impeccable. The house was gorgeous, the location was ideal, there were plenty of supplies for entertaining, and amidst hosting Thanksgiving dinner for 10, we actually had time to stretch out and relax. I cannot recommend this property highly enough. Thank you, Lori, for giving us the tools to create a truly memorable Thanksgiving holiday for my family!
