Great Rental
My wife and I stayed for a week and couldn't ask for anything better. The property was in great shape after the hurricane. The neighborhood was quiet with a variety of restaurants all close to home. A grocery store just down the street which was convenient since my wife and I both love to cook. The host was easy to communicate with which made check in easy. The house was very clean and up to date and the pool was a nice added touch. Will definetely go back

Peaceful Rest
My friends and I had a very peaceful stay at this location. We work over nights and sleep during the day. The neighborhood was quiet and peaceful and allowed us to rest as needed. The pool was nice to relax on and even cooked on the available grill a few times.

Great Time at the Lakeland Escape
My 3 sisters and I stayed this Lakeland escape so we could visit with family who live a couple of streets away. It was very convenient for our trip's purposes. The pool area is great, but a little too chilly during our stay to take advantage of it. We all agreed our grandkids would love it. We ate at Fred's Market and Restaurant, which is very good country cooking. We also ate at Harry's downtown, when we went to the First Friday event - it was Mardi Gras, so very crowded, but still very enjoyable. The servings at Harry's are extra large, so it would be easy to split an entree. Overall, we enjoyed staying at the Lakeland Escape and would use it again when we visit Lakeland - it's a good location for day trips to a number of tourist attractions!

Had a great stay. Convenient to the park. The pool wasn’t heated but they told us that. We didn’t plan to swim anyway- still nice to sit beside it. Amenities were fine. Easy to find the property

Florida Trip
Host was outstanding. Answered every question immediately that we had. There was a snack basket along with a bottle of red wine and wine glasses, which was very welcoming after a long trip. In the morning, we found a coffee nook in the kitchen with a Keurig with a wide selection of coffees to choose from. This lasted the entire trip. We had 1st floor laundry, which was very nice with new washer and dryer. Newer kitchen with new appliances. Everything that we needed was there. We didn't have to buy anything, even plenty of towels. Comfortable sleeping rooms. Plenty of space and felt at home. During my trip, I couldn't get my grandson out of the pool. All-in-all, our stay was very pleasurable and comfortable, considering we were there for family health issues. We will return. Thank you Debbie....

Phenomenal stay!
This was a fantastic find! Location was great for Legoland and other surrounding entertainment. The neighborhood was quiet and well kept. The first thing we noticed as we walked in was how clean the house was. Pool was also clean and amenities were just what we needed. Communication with the homeowner was great! We would definitely stay here again.

We really enjoyed our stay at this home. We didn't have the chance to use the pool but we did play a game of pool on the small table out back. The rooms are nice and our host was very helpful for us. All together it was a nice stay and would be for a family or small group.
