It’s was the perfect getaway, we only live 50 minutes away from this place but it was so nice just to step out of everyday life. The pool, house, grill area, animals was just so perfect and amazing. It was loved from my 10 yr old to my 58 yr old mother. Perfect place to relax and reset. I recommend this place 100x over!

Amazing Home
What a blessing ! We needed a home to stay in that was close by to a project our company was working on. The exact days that we needed were the only days available for this house. Boy were we lucky ! The home and property are amazing ! Out front we were welcomed by two miniature horses, I'm sorry, I forgot their names, and out back is so peaceful and serene. A nice pool, small pond with a dock if you'd like to try fishing, a bar and grill, oh, and a big ole tortoise named Fred. We will hopefully be able to stay here again on the next phase of our project ! You won't be disappointed if you stay here !

Beautiful country location approximately 12 miles from the town of Punta Gorda. Owners extremely helpful & very accommodating. Very friendly. The house was very large & can accommodate pets, but we didn't have any.

Wonderful spot to get away!
We really enjoyed our stay here. The property is absolutely beautiful! We were so excited when we got there and saw the ponies out front! It was a pleasant surprise. The house was as pictured, very spacious and nice layout. Great for spending time with family. The backyard was gorgeous, a wonderful oasis. I would mention that the owners home is directly behind this house. I could not tell from the listing, however he did tell me this when I was messaging prior to booking my stay. There is a privacy fence around his home and I never felt intruded on or uncomfortable, I just know that this information is important to some people :) It ended up being a blessing for us, as we accidentally locked ourselves out of the home. We had to go over and ask Richard to let us in. He had been asleep and we felt horrific, but he was so kind and understanding. The only other thing I would mention is that the house was very clean except the floors. If we walked barefoot then we had very dirty feet. I know that there can be a lot of tracking dirt by coming in and out (especially since we loved exploring the outside areas!) but we did notice this very early on in our trip before there was much in and out traffic. Overall this was a WONDERFUL place to stay, we would stay again and we would recommend this place to others.
