About this property

Temporary living that feels like home where you can relax and be yourself.

Fully furnished, charming and comfortable, 4 bedroom - 2 bath, short-term home has new linens, new beds (1 King, 2 queen, 1 single, trundle bed, 1 youth, 1 portable playpen/crib), laundry room, brand new 4K Samsung TV’s and a fully-equipped kitchen. High-speed Internet, over-air cable and utilities included. We’ve gone solar! (Please turn the thermostat to 79 when leaving). Maitland is a beautiful, upscale community nestled between numerous lakes and parks, located just north of Orlando. It’s a perfect location because you feel like you’re in a small town, yet you’re close to everything. Out of respect for my neighbors and because this is a quiet neighborhood, no motorcycles are allowed... Just a few blocks from the Maitland Art Center & Museum and the historic Lake Lily Cultural Corridor. Enjoy the Farmer’s Market, stroll around the many lakes or dine at numerous places including Teak’s Neighborhood Grill. Randa, who lives in the guesthouse on the property, is available to assist you with any questions and advice about the area. The home is located one mile from the famous Enzian Theater and Eden outdoor bar. Dine on great food while you watch a movie! A short 8 minute walk to SunRail Train Station, great when events are downtown! Only a few miles to Winter Park for world class shopping, dining with 140 boutiques, sidewalk cafes, and museums.

If you’re here for a medical-related stay, SunRail drops you off right in front of Florida Hospital Orlando (Advent Health). Very close to Rollins College and UCF. Walt Disney World and Universal are close and yet far enough away to avoid all the tourist traps and traffic. Distance in miles…

Universal Studio 16.6

Before booking, some have inquired as to why we charge a per person fee of $20 per night for any guests over two people. This is because it's a lot more wear and tear on the property with 6 verses 2 (more towels, laundry, water, air-conditioning, etc.). By the time we pay the VRBO fee, taxes, income tax, etc., my profits are slim. The cost of staying here is so much less than any hotels in the area, AND you receive a full kitchen, family room, dining, etc. Most guests, after they stay here, tell me that I'm not charging enough. I want it to be a win-win for everyone. :)

Perfect location for Maitland wedding

Randa was a great host. She was attentive but not intrusive. We were in the area for our daughter's wedding and needed somewhere large enough for a few family members to stay with us. This place was great! My sister's couldn't believe how affordable it was.

Great house, quiet street, convenient location

My husband and I stayed in this lovely house for our Thanksgiving trip as it's near where my sister lives. This quaint house was very clean and perfect for our stay. It's on a quiet street and conveniently located in Maitland, fairly close to downtown Orlando and Winter Park. Randa was a great host and very responsive; in fact she stopped by to say hello. :) She owns the house behind the main one and another person was staying there too. Overall would highly recommend!

About the host

Hosted by Randa Black

Host profile image
Hello! I have an upbeat personality and really enjoy having company. I'm a world traveler, an avid kayaker and love the outdoors. I'm also an artist and sculptor working with clay to bronze. We sometimes have art classes on the porch and my little art studio Saturday from 10-1:00 with a group of very talented artists. I built a wheelchair accessible guesthouse on my property when my dad was diagnosed with cancer. I took care of my grandmother, her husband and great uncle as age related care was needed, so I know what's to come. Until my dad needs it, I live there and rent out the front house as a way to pay for finishing the guesthouse. My day job is working in Community Relations with a local TV news station.

Why they chose this property

When I purchased this home in 2007, I choose the location because it's close to everything but when you're home, it feels like a lake house cottage. While updating the home built in 1943 with modern amenities, I took care to keep the character and charm. I turned a small barn/shed into my art studio and added a guesthouse and large porch for conversation and entertaining. I also like that it's close to I-4 and 17/92, two major thoroughfares. It's only a few blocks to the train station with easy access to downtown Orlando.

What makes this property unique

I'm proud of my small 'compound' we affectionately call the "Creative Coterie" which means, 'a gathering of like minds'. I've spent time and funds on landscaping and creating a welcome retreat with a sense of discovery.
