Awesome Fishing getaway!
This was an ideal place to stay for a long weekend. They had all the basics which meant we could just slide right in and start enjoying! The place is exactly as shown in the pictures with a lot of really nice touches like coffee pods waiting for you bottled water in the fridge. I took the fishing kayak out twice a day for several hours. It is a beautiful lake and there are some really big bass in there! It is a quiet, safe little neighborhood very near tons of places to eat. They have several extra fishing rods and other equipment in the garage. Finally, I can’t say enough about the host. They were fantastic and responded to every question I had very quickly. I stay at a lot of VRBO properties and this is a really good value and completely hassle free!

Nice home away from home
The house was perfect for my husband and I. We were in Florida for a graduation and the two bedrooms allowed our granddaughter to spend a couple of nights. Conveniently located to so many beaches, parks, restaurants, etc. The owners were great. Communication was easy, quick and clear. The kitchen was well stocked with spices. Plenty of fishing poles in the garage and the screened porch was like being at home for morning coffee. I highly recommend this location.

Key West in Palm Harbour!
Beautiful Key West experience in Palm Harbour! When walking the area the people we met were very friendly and welcoming. The accommodations were just as in the pictures - as others have commented the coffee bar was a nice touch. Lots of fishing supplies for the fisherman at heart. The only thing my husband was a little concerned about was the ability for people who would like to kayak but are inexperienced in the getting in and out of a kayak as the kayak is much lower than the dock level. We would definitely stay there again!

Key West at Palm Harbor
Had a great time at this charming property. The house was fully equipped and very clean. It is located in a quiet neighborhood that is convenient to local attractions and shopping. The beaches at Clearwater and Dunedin are phenomenal. We especially liked hanging out in the yard along the canal. We hope to come back again. Bob and Carol

Beautiful, peaceful Canal Home
LOVED this home on a canal on Lake Tarpon. First and most importantly, it was clean as a whistle! Updated interior throughout, and every amenity you could want. Seriously! Owners have thought of everything! And if you're a coffee lover, they have an amazing coffee bar. Kitchen is fully equipped. We only cooked scrambled eggs for breakfast, and ate out for lunch and dinner, or take-outs that could be microwaved, as we really only wanted to sit outside by the canal to enjoy the water and wildlife. The enlarged screened-in lanai was our next favorite place, where we ate breakfast and dinner leftovers - no bugs/mosquitos! Bed was very comfortable. We walked 2 miles every morning throughout the neighborhood at about 6:45 am, all quiet. A few walkers, one or 2 cyclists and a few cars. Everyone waved or said hello. We felt very safe. Owners are on top of everything and respond quickly. We will return! Many thanks, Lorrie and Ron! PS...Do not miss restaurants Rusty Bellies or Ozona Blue!

Tropical Character
The house was charming and has a tropical character. Very comfortable and perfect location for our needs. The Host was very attentive and seemed very conscientious and accommodating. Location on a canal that leads out to the lake was nice ambience and helpful for boaters. Loved the friendly local bar & grill “Snappers Grill”…great fish tacos and fish n chips! Overall, we couldn’t have chosen a better property for our week stay in sunny Palm Harbor.

A Slice of Heaven!
My husband and I couldn't have had a better time. The owners, Lorrie and Ron, were absolutely phenomenal to work with. The home had a very tasteful Key West theme-so colorful and a happy place to live in for a week. The canal in the back was so nice-saw an occasional friendly alligator swimming by keeping his/her and our distance. The availability of kayaks was very nice, and we could navigate to Lake Tarpon by way of the Kayaks if desired. If you stay there, you'll be glad you did. The owners obviously take great pride in their Vrbo investment! Thank you Lorrie and Ron!

Great vacation
The house had everything you needed including spices for cooking. We arrived in Tampa at 9am and our flight out wasn’t until 4 pm. Lorrie and Ron allowed us to check in early and check out late which was a true blessing. It’s the little things in life. We seen an alligator swim by in the canal which was very cool. We were a couple of miles to Tarpon Springs and Dunedin. We explored both towns and enjoyed the central location of the house. I took several walks through the neighborhood and the neighbors were friendly. We would definitely recommend this house and location. Renae M.

Absolutely superb home and hosts
If we could give 10 stars we would. From start to finish this was a fantastic stay in a very clean and well equipped home. It had everything we needed and more. It was spotlessly clean and the hosts went the extra mile by supplying an endless amount off tea and coffee, oils and syrups and even washing machine and dish washer supplies. We ran out of fire pit propane and was immediately resupplied after notify Lorrie & Ron, they bent over backwards to make sure our stay was as comfortable as possible. We even had some special visitors while there including turtles, and 2 gators they swam right by us in the canal, what a treat. We thoroughly recommend this beautiful vacation home, we will definitely return again soon 👍😁
