Great home base

This was the second year in a row we stayed here for a curling event. (Different cabin this time). Clean and comfortable place that allowed us to have team the between games and enough space to decompress solo when we wanted. Had an awesome meal next door one night too.

Wonderful Stay!

Our daughter had surgery in West Palm Beach and this house gave us a comfortable place for her recovery. It was well stocked with everything we could possibly need, and gave us the space we needed. I was able to work in the office space provided and they even supplied a printer and monitor. My husband loved the pool. It is very peaceful. We could not have found a better place to stay and would stay here again.

Beautiful home, quiet neighborhood. One bathroom has tub/shower. The bathroom in master bedroom has a nice size step in shower. The pool looked inviting but we didn't use it, too cold this time of year. We will be back.

Family Trip for the Holidays

This home was perfect for us. Well stocked with all the amenities that made it immediately feel like home. The pictures don’t do it justice. We didn’t get to enjoy the pool because it was unseasonably cold in Florida the week we were there but it was clean and obviously well taken care of. The owner couldn’t be nicer and our family trip was great.

Winter in Tropical Paradise

We have been coming for a few years and absolutely love this house and the neighborhood. The home has so many amenities but the best being the huge lanai with an incredible pool. There are many wonderful places to walk and bike and it is close to the beautiful town of Stuart. The house is always stocked with essentials and all we purchas is food. Thank you Carolyn for such wonderful hospitality!

Excellent!

A lovely house in a safe and quiet neighborhood. We stayed there for a month while our daughter was receiving medical treatment at West Palm Beach which was only 30 minutes away and an easy drive from the house. The house was perfect for our family. The house had everything we needed and the pool area was great. Carolyn the host was very helpful and easy to reach. She even ordered a pack’n’play and a highchair before our stay.

Absolutely wonderful and amazing week

This was such a wonderful and enjoyable week at an exceptional property. As a host, Carolyn could not have been any more hospitable or attentive. The house is in a wonderful neighborhood, is incredibly well-stocked and clean, is extremely spacious and comfortable, and has an enjoyable covered patio and pool on a large quiet lot at the end of a cul-de-sac. The neighborhood of well-manicured homes is safe and quiet with easy access for walking/biking, and grocery/shopping/I-95 access is nearby as well. I would give this stay, property, and host all 10 stars if possible! I highly recommend and will not hesitate to book this property with Carolyn again. One of the more enjoyable bookings I have ever had on VRBO, without question...

Feb & 1/2 March 2023 Stay

The house is accurate to the pictures, beds are comfortable, kitchen is well stocked, cleaning supplies are available. The neighborhood is very nice - tropical and big lots with well taken care of homes. Hobe Sound Beach is a relaxing 20 min drive, Hutchinson Island or Carlin Park / Juno Beach about 35 min. The pool is not heated as noted in the description so wasn’t useable for us, but nice to look at. Communications were good and we didn’t have many issues at all. Overall a great trip.

Spring break 2019- April

We had a wonderful getaway. The house was well stocked and well maintained. Definitely felt like a home away from home. Couldn’t find any reasons why anybody shouldn’t stay here. My kids loved the pool. We didn’t know what to expect being our first time renting a house for vacation and we left vacation very satisfied. Best part is that my family and I made memories over spring break and when my kids grow older they should all remember this house. The homeowners were great and easy to communicate with. I will definitely persuade any travelers I know heading to this area into renting this house. Thanks so much for everything.

Splendid home away from home!

After her first initial walk-through of the home upon our arrival, our 15 year old announced "This is splendid!" That pretty much sums up our incredibly relaxing week of R&R in this lovely home. We prepared all our meals except for one during our week's stay. The kitchen is fully stocked with great quality pots/pans/dishes and also includes 'extras' like a Kitchen Aid stand mixer, crock pot, waffle maker etc. which we greatly appreciated. We didn't have much sunny weather but that didn't stop our family of 5 (3 teenagers) from spending hours in the pool. We especially loved playing pool volleyball every day with the inflatable volleyball net. Carolyn was very quick to answer questions and gave us lots of info about area attractions and activities that we could do as well. This particular vacation we were all in need of rest & rejuvenation so we didn't explore much of the area since we felt like this place was our own little oasis. We HIGHLY recommend it and would love to return in the future.

Private Modern Getaway

Our family of five enjoyed the week in the house. It is at the end of a cul-de-sac so there is a lot of privacy and a HUGE backyard. The house is apportioned and decorated tastefully. It was a relaxing place to enjoy some Florida sunshine.
