Fantastic Property
We had an amazing family vacation at this beautifully renovated home! With adults and kids in tow, the spacious 4-bedroom, 3-bath layout was perfect for us all. The screened in pool was a hit with the children as well as us grown children at heart and the amenities, including the well-equipped kitchen and TVs in every room, kept everyone entertained. The location near Busch Gardens, water park, and the quiet neighborhood added a peaceful touch. The host was accommodating, and we loved the pet-friendly option. Highly recommend this gem for a family getaway!

Beautiful Spacious Home
We were visiting Tampa for a long weekend to celebrate our mother's 77th birthday. The home was beautiful and spacious. Everything was clean and very comfortable. We enjoyed the screened in crystal clear pool. The home had many amenities and extras that we do not normally see that was very much appreciated. The owner we very friendly and responsive. The food was fantastic at Craft riverboat dinner cruise, Ajisai, Jackson's Bistro and Eggs Up Grill. We would not hesitate to return and stay at this home again. Thank you Bonnie and Patrick for for everything.

Temple Terrace Family Retreat… PERFECT!
We had a family get together for Easter weekend, and this house was perfect. A very nice pool area, screened in and shaded, a beautifully decorated house with 4 nice bedrooms and 3 baths. What really made it special were the extras: pool toys for the kids, foosball table, croquet set, bikes, all of the cooking tools and extras… all the way down to a junk drawer in the laundry room. The location is very close to Busch Gardens, and it is easy to get access to the rest of the Tampa area. And it’s less than 1/4 mile to 2 different playgrounds, and a park along the Hillsborough River. They even have a pack and play and highchair for the baby. I HIGHLY recommend this retreat.

Short stay
Dealing with the owners was pleasant and easy. They were very quick to respond to any inquiries we had throughout our stay. House was great with lots of room for our group of 8 and had everything you could need. Pool heater happened to be broken but the owners very quickly responded and not only didn't charge us for it, they also provided a refund for the inconvenience. Outside could use some TLC to match the inside of the house, although this doesnt affect your stay in anyway.

Lacrosse Tournament
The house was great. Loved the layout and it was decorated for Christmas. Amenities and furnishings were top notch. Pool area could use a little power washing, but it was pretty private for being on a corner lot.

Family Vacay
Overall was a very great home! The pool was nice & to have it heated made it perfect for my granddaughter to take her first swim! The location of the home was more urban than we anticipated but never ran into any issues. My daughter and her husband spent NYE downtown at Armature works and had a blast! Driving to different locations was easy from the home! Overall great stay!
