Quaint duplex
In a well maintained older neighborhood, spacious parking from the alleyway. Most of the original architectural remained with the original interior doors and wood floors in the dining, living, and bedrooms.

Lakeland Home
This home appealed to us because of the location. A few blocks away from Lake Hollingsworth and Florida Southern College at one end, two blocks to Lake Morton and the Polk Art museum at the other end and a few blocks more to Lake Mirror and Hollis Gardens. This home is divided into two apartments which was not made known in the listing. We were blessed with good neighbors who kept it quiet so it wasn't a problem for us. Our entrance was in the back of the house. The neighborhood was quiet and safe to walk in even in the evening hours. The kitchen, bathrooms, bedrooms were comfortable and had everything we required.Shower and tub had plenty of hot water. Everything on the ground level.The only thing lacking for us was some outdoor chairs and table to sit outside in the beautiful Lakeland mornings and drink coffee and have a morning breakfast.

Overlooked cleanliness
Didn’t realize we were staying in a house with others in the same house and it’s loud and noisy and underneath the bed was trash and had not been cleaned

Wonderful host and property
I booked this home to evacuate from Milton. The host, Edgar, was extremely responsive to my questions and his kindness during this very stressful situation was so appreciated. Beautiful classic Florida craftsmen well maintained and larger than I thought. Great location less than a mile from downtown. Highly recommend!

Girls weekend
Comfy, clean and cozy location for a brief respite during our Lakeland stay. Thoroughly enjoyed the parks (Hollis Gardens and Bonnet Springs Park) during our visit. The breakfast recommendation from host (Ke'Ke's) was wonderful! Appreciate the directions to the local and our stay. Thank you!

Quaint Cottage
A lovely home and perfect location for what we were in town for. So many great walks from this location: Lake Hollingsworth, Lake Morton, Mirror Lake, all accessible by foot. The home itself looked like a cottage on the outside but was remarkably spacious on the inside. Very clean and had everything we needed including options on the TV for my elderly Mother.

The house was spacious, comfortable and quiet. It is close to Lake Mirror and the Southern Florida college. The grocery store and post office are within a mile. The host was great and responded quickly to a couple of small items. I would not hesitate to stay here again. Looking forward to staying again when I come to Lakeland.

Beautiful Home
My husband and I came to Lakeland to help our son settle into his new apartment after moving from South Carolina. The home is beautiful and very clean. It had everything we needed for our week away. There were a couple of things that came up, however the response to those things were almost immediate. We would definitely stay again in the future!
