"Highly recommend this amazing home! It was spotless, well stocked, goodie’s for the guests and a hand written welcome note that made us feel right at home! The fenced in porch and backyard was fabulous, our fur-sons definitely gave their approval. The home was well stocked with everything you could possibly need. Beds were extremely comfortable. Excellent communication from the host. Clear and easy check in and check out information. We will definitely be back!

Family stay for my son‘s wedding

The home was a wonderful greeting to my family of 6+3 dogs. I had my mother there who is elderly and my cousin and they stayed in the master and then two couples stayed in the other rooms which included myself. It was great having three full baths, the back patio is awesome! It kept the dogs confined ! We cooked for an after wedding event at the brides house and the kitchen was very sufficient for that. I did a crab boil for the kids before the wedding. It worked out great! It helped That my boyfriends parents live in the area Since I needed to borrow an extra pot. It was overall probably my best Vrbo experience! Highly highly recommend stay at the South properties . The location was perfect , Set an acute neighborhood with a little town, full of shops and restaurants!

Old Florida with updated accommodations

First off, the communication with the owners was outstanding. They are truly superb hosts. The house was immaculate and had several unexpected treats awaiting us upon our arrival, which were fully appreciated. We experienced great weather while there and sat out on the expansive back porch quite a bit. The porch furniture is a bit retro but just not all that comfortable for sitting as long as we preferred to while enjoying the weather. The house is located in a very private spot at the end of a street in a residential neighborhood. Though the trees and shrubbery mostly block the view of other homes, we could hear casual conversations and music coming from the neighbors when they were also out in their yards. This was not an issue for us, but it’s important for people to understand that it truly is a residential area. The benefit of its location, though, is that it is definitely within walking distance of the cute downtown area as well as the waterfront. When we did take the car to these areas, we also noticed that it was very easy to find parking spots. As far as the interior, it is so nicely decorated and comfortable. The stay helped us to experience a taste of a quintessential Florida neighborhood and charming town.

Very Clean, Great Location

Our stay was excellent! We were a group of (2) in our 50’s and (3) in 80’s. Here are some positive and “good to know” highlights: Positive: - great communication with owner, very responsive - super clean property - location is .5 mile, easy walk, from downtown safety harbor - area felt very safe - neat wildlife around property - well appointed kitchen - great decore around the house - beautiful wrap around porch - nice coffee bar that has small pit and Kuerig (some pods on-site to welcome guests that first morning, otherwise bring your own coffee) - the twin air mattress is very comfortable and holds air well overnight - excellent water pressure in showers - some shampoos/conditioners on-site “Good to know” (some recommendations to owners): - we left an umbrella there as a house donation, as we didn’t find one on-site (rained during our stay)…hopefully will be useful to other guests when it rains during their stay - plenty of chairs on the porch, but loungers would be nice for relaxing - recommendation…mount long mirror on the wall Thank you John and Ellen for the beautiful home to stay in!

Great stay!

The house is at the end of a quiet street, it feels like you don't have neighbors which was nice. Very comfortable and nicely decorated. Had everything we needed for our stay. There are restaurants and coffee shops near by. Safety Harbor is located in the middle of everything. We very much enjoy our stay and the location. Would stay here again!
