Destination Wedding/Family Getaway
My family of five came to Tavares, Florida to attend a wedding. We decided to extend our stay and in doing so, looked into a home rental versus staying at a hotel. I stumbled on this delightful home which fit all of our needs for space, comfort, and location close to the wedding venue and our friends home. This home was comfortable and well appointed. The kitchen and bathrooms were fully stocked with everything we needed. During our stay, we had the opportunity to fish off the dock and relax in the pool area. We also took a short ride into Mount Dora one evening for a delightful dinner. Check in/check out was seamless and owner was quick to respond to any questions I had about the accommodations. The only problem was with the comfort of the sofa bed, but we were able to address it by using the air mattress instead. I would highly recommend this home and would not hesitate to return.

Cozy and comfortable
There are so many things to say about how great this rental was for our long weekend away. First, we rent houses a lot and this was by far the best decorated and most comfortable house we’ve ever stayed in. I loved all the detail like the wall mural upstairs in our daughter’s room, the butcher block counters, and cute pull handles on the kitchen cabinets. We did not have the best weather so the fireplace kept us very cozy. We brought our boat and were able to cruise the canals around the house. My husband loved the dock in the backyard. There is a boat ramp super close. The lakes were a little too windy and cold this particular weekend but we still had a blast. We tried to book again in March but the house is completed booked. We will be back.

Loved the house, plenty of parking for the bass boats, great location to take off from the dock to fish Harris chain of lakes. Great amenities for our stay. Plenty of pans & supplies, and a good working grill to cook on the nights we choose to stay in. Hope to be able to rent this place again for our next fishing/vacation trip. p.s. Pool was nice & warm too

Quiet, clean property.
The property was very clean and had the needed amenities. The family enjoyed fishing off the pier. If the weather was warm enough, we would have enjoyed the pool. The property provided fishing poles and swim toys. The neighborhood was quiet and close to a general store and grocery store.

We absolutely loved this house!! Ours kids loved to fish from the dock. They loved the pool too. It was to cold for us adults lol. Rebecca was great to work with. We had a couple of hiccups with the code for the door. But I just sent her a message and she got it taken care of. We will definitely book with her again in the future.

Sweet surprise!
My friends and I went to Mount Dora to celebrate a birthday. This lovely house was sweet; so tastefully decorated and homey! We would have been happy to stay at the property all day because it was so comfortable…everything needed was there and the beds were clean and super comfy. The Dollar General at the end of the street came in handy for a couple of forgotten items. Oh, and Mary’s Country Kitchen next door to that had really good food too! We were very satisfied and would rent this surprise gem again. Thank you, Rebecca 😊

Tasteful and peaceful.
This property was just beautiful. The pics don't do it justice. Becky was wonderful to work with. My husband and I hosted my precious mama's remaining little brother and little sister here who hadn't seen each other in over five years. We had a great time. At Becky's recommendation, we ate at Mary's restaurant down the street..the food and service was outstanding. We ate at Cody's on 4th in Mt Dora (great food), did some shopping in this adorable little town too. We took a canal/lake tour with Rusty Boat Tours...loved it! It was a blessing to make memories with my family in Becky's charming lake house. As someone who is passionate about interior design and decorating, I so appreciated all of the little details Becky poured into this home; she's got a great eye. If we get to Tavares again, we will definitely book this sweet home. Thanks for the memories, Becky! Best, Ray and Steph fr Chicagoland

My little dog Clementine and I needed a break from the city and went to visit family near Mt Dora. We stayed in this adorable place on the canal which has a chorus of frogs singing beautifully every night. The dock is lovely . Pool is nice and accommodations are clean and well stocked with coffee and everything you would need.

First off this home was the best equipped we have ever stayed at and we have stayed at many vrbo homes. The hosts were very nice and responsive. The home has anything you could need for a great vacation. The dock on the canal was wonderful my (4 year) granddaughter caught bream everyday. We also caught bass and bowfin. Lots of fun for all. Really great place to stay.

Could not have been happier with the friendliness and timeliness of Rebecca even while she and spouse in Italy. Some small timing issues but everything resolved and place was great. Just one thing... my fishing skills still need some updating. Just two bites off the back dock in 4 days! Did see an otter however. :-)
