Safety Harbor is an old railroad town and as such, one remote end of Casa del Tren's yard is bordered by the railway.

Lovely stay at Casa Del Tren! The location is quiet and very close to town. Easy walk to shops and several good restaurants. The hosts are very responsive and accommodating and the house is comfortable and well appointed.
Home was extremely clean and welcoming! Treats (people treats) left by hosts were appreciated. Hosts were available at any time and always responsive, we would not hesitate to stay at their location(s) again. Also, very nice that they are pet friendly!
John and Ellen's place worked out perfectly. The place was excellent, Safety Harbor was amazing and ALL of John's restaurant recommendations were great. We would definitely stay again.
Great place to stay in Safety Harbor. Quiet neighborhood, great parking and outside space. Close to shopping and eating places, very walkable. Will definitely stay again.
Well equipped kitchen. It had everything I needed with a courtyard and adjacent yard for the dog. Many restaurants, bars, and a beach within walking distance.
This cottage was an excellent place to stay. We enjoyed the coffee, snacks and wine and grilled fish from the seafood market for dinner one night. We walked into town every day and thought Safety Harbor was lovely and had a laid back vibe. Farmers market on Sunday was fun!
We had a lovely stay at Casa del Tren over the holiday. The home was comfortable and well-appointed with everything you need. It was very near to town, yet in a quiet and peaceful location. The fenced-in and well lit patio was great for our family and the hosts were very communicative and accommodating.
What an incredible vacation...we enjoyed our stay immensely! The home is quant and comfortable. We were close to downtown safety harbor. Dead end street made it very quiet. Thanks John for everything!
John and Ellen are FANTASTIC hosts! They truly care about their guests, pay attention to every detail to ensure comfort, and are readily available to answer any questions and help in any way. And Casa del Tren is a wonderful home nestled in a quiet area and so close to everything! My husband and I (and our sweet dog) had a marvelous time! We will definitely be back and have recommended their homes to all of our friends and family :-)
I loved the area, lots of places to walk and visit, Folly Farms is a fun place. Many good eating place in SH and
out on 19. Shopping was easy with several Publix nearby.
Lovely boardwalks along Tampa bay with the Pelicans diving into the water for fish. Weather was good too. Loved the small town atmosphere and slow living.
This is a lovely cottage, very comfortable, very clean. John and Ellen, the hosts, left snacks and bottled wine as welcome gifts. John was readily available for questions.
the property is on a deadend street, the neighborhood is lovely for walks, just a few blocks to the charming town of Safety Harbor, quite close to Phillipe Park. Just a lovely place to stay.
This property is in a perfect location to be able to enjoy all that Main Street in safety harbor has to offer. It sits back on a quiet street and is very private. The patio is a nice touch for kids and dogs. The owners had everything we needed to enjoy our stay.
The house was great, it was cute, very clean and had everything we needed. The back patio was wonderful to sit outside in the evening. It was close to restaurants and shops. Would definitely stay again!
Our stay at Casa del Tren was most ideal. The home was plenty big for our needs, it was a bright, cheery, peaceful space, it was very nicely appointed, the owners were very hospitable and always available should any questions have come up, the location is ideal with it only being a short walk to the downtown, the beds were comfortable and the place was kept clean. Casa del Tren was a wonderful base of operations for our adventuring in the area. Thanks so much, John and Ellen, for making our Safety Harbor vacation so positively memorable.
We loved our stay at the very cute Casa del Tren and can't say enough nice things about Safety Harbor. Absolutely convenient to everything! We will definitely be back.
Thanks so much to John and Ellen.
At the end of a dead end street, beside a church, lies a hip oasis that delivers on every prior review/rating. We will be back whenever in the area again. The hosts were great and checked in on us to ensure a great experience.
My experience renting this property is very positive. Cleanliness deserves a 10 on a 1-5 scale. Location was only two block from Main Street. I would definitely rent this property again!!
Really loved the city and location. Favorite restaurants were Barfly and Gigglewaters for movie and dinner. Discovered Woodys seafood in palmetto and farmers market - detwilers. Owners were always available to us. Home was very clean.

Unique & adorable property in Safety Harbor
Our stay at Casa del Tren was wonderful! We love the fun vibe of Safety Harbor-and the location of this property is perfect-so close to downtown! The house is clean, very nicely decorated, and had absolutely everything that we needed. John was so responsive to any questions that we had or anything at all that we needed. We wouldn’t hesitate to rent from him again, and in fact have already done that!
