Weekend Getaway
The house was great. It was dark when we arrived, and the lights were left on for us. Everything was as good or better than advertised. We had our dogs with us and the fenced in yard was a total bonus.

Great Rental for Couple or Family
The home was perfect for my husband, our small dogs, and myself. We loved staying here and will definitely stay again the next time we visit my brother-in-law. We felt right at home and had everything we needed. The bed and pillows were very comfortable. There is only one bathroom, which is located upstairs. This was not an issue for us but I just wanted to put it out there in case you have difficulty with stairs. The location was ideal for us! We could walk to downtown DeLand and all the shops, restaurants, and bars. It’s a really cute downtown area that we enjoyed exploring. Daytona Beach isn’t too far either - 30 minutes or so. That was a lot of fun! There’s so much you can do there! We had a great time at the beach! This is definitely the place to stay in DeLand for a couple or a family. Plus the host was so easy and friendly to work with!

House was very clean! And well taken care of.
However we dìd not understand/realize that the bathroom was upstairs. As we are seniors, this was very inconvenient for the 4 of us.

A wonderful visit to the Deland Area of Central Florida
Beautiful and cozy home. Great location, 1 block from Stetson University and downtown Deland! A pet friendly and safe location! Short drive to the Palm Coast at Flagler Beach. Plenty of great restaurants close by! See the Manatees at Blue Springs! Great communication with our wonderful host. We would stay here again. In short, highly recommended!

Super cute home tucked downtown
We came down to Florida to visit family and had a very comfortable stay at this place. While the littles weren’t happy about having to sleep on a blowup mattress, once it was setup with the cute sheets blanket and pillow, they were content to sleep and slept great. Such a great idea to provide a humidifier! The house had everything we could imagine needing while away on vacation and the host was super quick to respond during the days leading up to our stay. I loved the house’ charm and decor. Thank you!

Overall a great stay, only complaint is that the place could have had a better cleaning our dog found a sock under the bed from a previous guest and the kitchen had some grease stains next to the stove and some stuff underneath the couches

We LOVED it! Quaint and comfy!
The property was the cutest! It's evident that the hosts have put a lot of thought and effort into ensuring you have all the amenities and comforts of home. It was situated just a couple of blocks from our daughter's dorm at Emily. When visiting again, we will surely be checking if this property is available for booking. I would give the host and property more stars if possible.

About the host

Hosted by Kaley Macomber

Host profile image
My name is Kaley Macomber and I was born and raised here in DeLand, Florida. I grew up traveling all over the United States every summer as a kid on vacations but DeLand has always been home. I have been a Realtor for almost 10 years and "explore" our local area for a living. My husband, Russell, is a Merchant Mariner navigating cargo ships around the world. We are both travelers at heart!

When we decide to vacation, we often choose to stay in short term rentals for so many reasons... the most important being the character of the place, the ability to have a whole residence to ourselves, and helpful host recommendations about the area. For these reasons and so many others, we are so excited to be able to share ours with you!
We have a huge list of suggestions for restaurants, things to do in our Downtown DeLand area, state parks to explore, local events, and so much more! If you haven't already asked me about personalized recommendations before arriving, feel free to message me or give me a call and I can give you some suggestions for DeLand, upcoming events, our beautiful beaches, the springs, and other surrounding areas.

Thank you for considering your stay with us!

What makes this property unique

Location, location, location. If you're vacationing to Disney or the beaches and would like a quiet town 30-40 minutes away or visiting someone for a wedding, Nascar event, or Stetson University sporting event, what better location than downtown DeLand! This home is just one block away from the downtown area.
