About this property

Exceptional. Private heated pool and beaches

This is the best location in Pinellas County with over 30 acres of private community park including paved walking trails, 4 lighted tennis courts, basketball hoops, and playgrounds. Take a look at the map, your options are AWESOME. Google “Honeymoon Island State Park” an unspoiled natural paradise of Gulf beaches and wildlife sanctuary. Take a ferry to Caladesi Island State Park where you’ll lose your breath the first time you emerge from the nature trail onto the Gulf shores. You might spend your entire day on the Dunedin Causeway, beautiful water on both sides, where everyone does their own thing (fishing, swimming, sleeping, reading, watching, walking, biking, running, kayaking, sailing, whatever). Love the sunset? Pick just about any place nearby, including Dunedin Causeway, Clearwater Beach, Honeymoon Park, Crystal Beach (bring your camera, the beauty is calming to the soul). What else? The sponge docks at Tarpon Springs are just north, St Pete to the south, or Tampa to the east. Orlando is less than 2 hours away. You could see NFC football, American league baseball, MLB spring training, or even NHL hockey. The four championship courses of the Innisbrook Golf resort are next door (plus numerous other less known golf courses). Best of all you’ll relax in a fully furnished Palm Harbor home with all the amenities to make your stay a success. This 2156 sq ft home is a classic Florida split, meaning the master bedroom is on the opposite side of the house from the two guest rooms. The master bedroom has a private bathroom, and the bed is a king size. The two guest rooms share a bathroom. One room has two twin beds while the other has a queen-sized bed. There is a fully furnished kitchen, wireless internet access (free Wi-Fi), HDTV, and of course, a pool. You will love the 1700 sq ft screened in patio featuring a 20,000-gallon pool with waterfall, YouTube TV, and an available gas grill for cooking out.

Perfect! We would stay again!
Craig was an awesome host and always quick to respond. The lights on for us, which was so welcome for our 8pm arrival. The house was spacious, clean and comfortable. The location was perfect, not far from beaches, walking trails, Publix and a couple dozen (or so) nice restaurants. The neighborhood was ideal for walking around, including a loop thru the community park. We spotted turtles in the protected areas! The kitchen had everything we needed and more. We grilled outside and enloyed dinner on the patio. Coffee every morning on the patio felt luxurious with the waterfall on the pool. We even had warm enough weather to enjoy a dip the heated poolpool.

Pool House
The house is very welcoming upon entering. The decorations were pretty, the view of the pool awesome. We spent most of our time outside by the pool, the waterfall was relaxing to listen to. There was a problem with the toilet and Craig came to take care of it. He's very friendly and even set the pool temperature up for us. We had a great time.

Summer Getaway
Overall an excellent property. Plenty of room, fantastic location, excellent to all events.. Only improvements could be cleanliness by housekeeping, and upgrade to appliances (except washer & dryer which was excellent). There was an issue with wifi, but Craig is taking care of that already... A great stay with my family. Thanks to all.

Great family stay
Booked this lovely house after a busy week in Orlando. Exactly what we needed to relax! Facilities were great, and we all loved the pool. Unfortunately we didn’t get to meet Oscar, but loved watching the squirrels race around in the morning! Would recommend this 100%

Thank you for a perfect vacation!
Our stay at this beautiful house was simply unforgettable! From the moment we arrived, we felt right at home. The house was immaculately clean and tastefully decorated. The rooms are spacious and comfortable, and the beds were a dream – we slept wonderfully every night. The kitchen is fully equipped, making cooking a pleasure. We enjoyed having our meals by the Pool area with a lovely view of the beautiful garden. The outdoor space is equally impressive. One of the highlights is the house’s location. It is situated in a quiet neighborhood but still close to all major attractions and amenities. We had no trouble exploring the area and always had a wonderful retreat to come back to. Communication with Craig was excellent. He were always available and very helpful, making our stay even more enjoyable. It’s clear he is truly care about the well-being of their guests. Thank you for a perfect vacation!

First time gulf visit
Very nice neighborhood with plenty of nearby stores and restaurants. We don’t cook a lot on vacation but the house was well equipped for cooking. Appreciated all the little things like dish soap, baggies, air fresheners to name a few. Loved the way the house is separated so that you could spread out and have space. Prior to and during visit, Craig was easy to contact and very responsive. Would definitely want to stay again if back in the area!
