Spacious 2 bedroom with amazing view
Came to Port Richey area for son’s
speciality therapy. The pool was perfect for him in a quiet, non- touristy neighborhood. My flights were delayed for a day and the owner was
very kind and accommodating with my change in schedule. There was one unexpected issue with the electricity going off in the kitchen but it was resolved in a good time frame and the owner came over herself to fix the problem.
The outdoor area is adjacent to a dock and oven, and as stated in the description, may not be suitable for toddlers or small children- but Inkept a lifejackets on my son and there were no concerns. Overall, an amazing place within 30 minutes
or less of beautiful beaches!

Spring break getaway
We really enjoyed our stay at this cottage. We were looking for a quiet place to getaway during spring break but still able to hit the beaches, restaurants, and shopping. This cottage was perfect for that. We really enjoyed the pool and patio. The house was clean and was just as advertised. The check in and check out process was smooth. I would consider going back!

Quiet Retreat
We stayed two weeks at this beautiful cottage. Sometimes drove to the beach and sometimes just relaxed in the pool in the backyard. The cottage is just as pictured, the neighborhood is quiet and safe and we had a wonderful time. Sitting by the bubbling pool and seeing the canal was just wonderful. We loved it.

Pool Retreat
We were all about the outdoor space which was great! We thought there might have been more activity on the canal but were fortunate to see a dolphin come in. Was cool when we were there and could have used the pool more but was happy it was sunny for most of the time. We used to have a house in Ft Lauderdale and the house reminded me of good times there. The only thing we would have suggested was the front just needed more curb appeal and the grounds kept up with the grass. Besides that it was a great house. The bed was comfortable and the house had everything we needed. I would reccomend it!!

This is a gem
The property was clean and they really make sure you and your family will have fun. There’s a foosball, uno and playing cards, board games, sunscreen, bikes(multiple), towels even bch towels to name few. The kitchen is has all one needs including a Kurig coffee maker with coffee.
The POOL was the biggest attraction and we didn’t even go to the beach.
We will definitely stay here again.
