Dolphins in your backyard! Peaceful waterfront oasis w/ sparkling pool & hottub.

Welcome to our warm and inviting luxury waterfront home perfectly situated at the end of a culdesac in the waterside community of Ozona. Here you will find yourself away from the crowds yet ideally located just minutes from all the world class amenities that North Pinellas County has to offer.

Soak in the serene water views from the open and bright second floor living area; lounge by the pool and listen for the slap of dolphin tails as they feed in the waters off the hardwood dock; launch the double kayak or SUP and explore the waterways, intercoastal islands and bird sanctuaries then return for a cocktail and a soak in the hottub as the sun sinks over the water and leaves you feeling like you could stay forever.

A short bike ride and you'll find yourself on the famous 38 mile long Pinellas Trail where you can head north past the natural spring at Wall Spring Park to the quaint Greek settlement of Tarpon Springs with its active sponge docks and buzzing restaurants or south to the charming town of Dunedin, spring home to the Toronto Blue Jays and the spectacular beaches of Honeymoon Island, voted #1 State Park in Florida. Take an evening stroll to Downtown Palm Harbor where you will find a selection of local breweries and fun eateries or catch the Jolly Trolley to enjoy the nightlife of Clearwater Beach. You'll be only minutes from the four championship courses at Innisbrook Golf Resort where you can tee off like a champion or watch one play on the world famous Copperhead course.

Our custom home has been decorated with the comforts of home in mind. You'll find many unique features including a hearty wood burning fireplace for chilly winter evenings. The master king suite is extremely spacious and the luxury ensuite boasts a large soaking tub, double shower heads, rain shower and dual towel heaters. The additional three bedrooms are bright, cheerful and comfortable with easy going beach decor and colors. The spacious kitchen is the heart of the home and features expansive granite counters, high end appliances and a full selection of oils, seasonings and spices for you to prepare your favorite meals and enjoy good times with family and friends.

Not exactly as listed....

I'll start by saying the house itself was very clean and well stocked but at this price point (approx. 1K a night) it's supposed to be. All of the reviewers who were so effusive probably haven't stayed at this level before. We have and this is standard.I'm a professional photographer and part of the trip was taking pics out the back of the house. Unfortunately there was an enormous boat parked out back, blocking the view. This boat is not in any photos and yes, as a professional photographer I too would have told them to get that eye sore of a boat out of my 'money shots' as in "we ain't selling a boat we're selling real estate". When I told management I needed the boat out of there I was told by the owners "we store our boat on the boat lift and do not have any alternative storage location". I took photos in the exact spot the real estate photographer stood but there is no where to upload. In addition, one neighbor kept popping in to 'look in on the pool' which was usually low on water and always dirty-never saw the pool service just the nosy neighbor checking on us. I have more to add about the lack of privacy, noise (forget about taking a nap out back) and the neighbors who hate that they live near a Vrbo but I'll leave it here unless I can upload some of my real estate shots.

Beautiful Spacious Home

This home was very big, beautiful and clean! The view is amazing! The pool is clean. The kitchen is gorgeous! The beds are comfy. Eating dinner and watching the sunset is so wonderful in this house. Checking in and out is super easy. I would definitely stay in the house again if I was in the area. Such a nice neighborhood/area and a really beautiful home. Thank you for having us!

First time to Florida

There is a reason this a 5 star property, we have stood in many VRBOs this one was the cleanest well stocked and looked even better in person The views ,the pool and even our boat that we rented simply pulled up to the back of our house and we were off. I cannot say enough nice things about this house . Even after a long day at the beach the whole family enjoyed the pool at night we cooked together and the neighborhood was beautiful and it was nice to be away from the crowds. Early morning coffee and watching the dolphins in the backyard beautiful birds in the morning watching the boat pass by all around just an outstanding stay.

Wonderful spot for Blue Jays spring training

My husband, my parents and I wanted a house near Dunedin so we could watch some spring training and enjoy a pool in between games. Caryn’s place exceeded our expectations and we would happily book it again in the future. When we arrived, the house was very clean and there were instructions for everything. The pool and hot tub were such a pleasure after a day in the sun. It was also nice to have some pool toys to use. We enjoyed using the board games at night and it was so nice to sit out on the screened porch. Our bedrooms were comfortable and there were more than enough towels and linens for our group. Any questions we had were answered promptly by Caryn. If the place was available for longer, we definitely would have extended our stay.

Amazing house for a family

This is such a great property. We loved the amenities in the house including the heated pool and the fully stocked kitchen. The location is great, so close to downtown Palm Harbor. The beds were comfortable and plenty of space for our three teenage boys. It was so convenient to have the two adult bikes, my husband and I rode the Pinellas Trail into downtown Dunedin. I really enjoyed sitting on the screened in porch having my cup of coffee in the morning and looking for dolphins. My husband enjoyed grilling dinner one night while we all were able to enjoy the outdoor space. Plenty of towels for bathing and the pool. The communication with the owner was timely. Would definitely stay here again if we get the chance.

Perfect, everything was perfect.

It’s a beautiful home located on a bayou filled with wading birds and dolphins fishing or just passing by. The sunrise creates a pink hue on the water and the sky and the sunsets are glorious. The house is well stocked, sparkling clean, comfortable and very tastefully decorated. The screened porch which opens into the living room is a magical place to watch the world pass through the bayou. Beds are great, too. The host is lovely and communicative. Located a very short, safe distance from the Pinellas bike trail that leads you to remarkable visits to Wall Springs, Tarpon Springs and Dunedin.

Beautiful home and property

We enjoyed our stay at this beautifully maintained property. We enjoyed biking to Dunedin for lunch. Kayaking and paddling boarding around the bayou. Best of all was just sitting on the screened porch or by the pool and enjoying the wild life. Many different birds, fish jumping and best of all dolphins. The house is well supplied with necessities and the owner is very responsive to any questions. I would definitely recommend this property.

A beautiful home, tastefully decorated, quality linens and well-equipped kitchen. We loved having morning coffee and evening cocktails on the screen porch overlooked the bayou and the very nice pool and spa. We saw so many birds and dolphins. The neighborhood is very quiet and we enjoyed biking. A fine bike trail is just minutes away. We walked to a few good restaurants and biked to cute village of Ozona.

This house has it all!!

We had a very rough start to our vacation as our flight was cancelled multiple times but Caryn was an absolute rock star to work with us to get or vacation on track!!! Starting with delivering our grocery pick up right to the house and putting it away!! Sooo amazing!!! We arrived very late or early in the am I should say and not having to go shopping was amazing!!! The house is very nice and well maintained with lots of amenities we didn’t need to buy. It is very nicely decorated and definitely slept great on the beds! Nice quiet area and the pool and the dock in the backyard were amazing!! We are a fishing family and had many hours of fun fishing of the dock. The fish bit great and the bait shop is only minutes away. There was even fishing gear there to use!!! One thing that is super important in a Vrbo is communication and Caryn was amazing!!! We would love to rent this property again!!!

Gulf Oasis

Lovely home on the water in a cul-du-sac of a very nice neighborhood. Home is beautifully appointed with lots of amenities. Close to many things, shops, restaurants, other cute towns like Dunedin and Tarpon Sponge Docks, activities - kayaking, biking on the Pinellas Trail, golf, boat rentals, and not in a 'touristy' area. Dolphin sighting every day! [The only thing I would change (but it is mentioned in the listing) is that the spa/jacuzzi is not heated and really should be for a VRBO.] Otherwise we really enjoyed our stay and we were very comfortable here.
