Listing as described. Clean. We brought pets and were happy the yard was fenced. If you have smaller pets the gate portion has wider spacing, 2 of our dogs were able to squeeze through. The sauna was lovely. Kitchen fully equipped with everything you’ll need including kids plates and a sitting chair with tray for little ones. There was also a pack n play, just bring your own sheets.

This is my second time in this house and already have scheduled a third stay! Very peaceful and private space. Love the restaurants around and I absolutely enjoy having a private sauna. I created my own retreat with daily sauna and bodywork.

Kitchen was well equipped and the place was great to have a small dog! Did not smell at all like animals were there and was clean. This is not a complaint at all, but with a disabled dad the furniture was not very sturdy and was very low to the ground in the living room. For anyone else it would be fine, but taller more sturdy furniture would have been nice for our situation. Give the place 5 stars for how kind the host was!!

GREAT Home!!! Lots to do, walking distance to the Lake or River Front. I especially enjoyed it because it was 2 miles from my families home, whom we were there visiting. Communication was fabulous, and the amenities in the home were top notch. Will definitely keep this on my list for the next visit to Sanford, FL.

This was a beautiful spot for our family during a trip for my daughter’s wedding it was close to the venue. Very spacious and beautiful place. Would definitely stay again if the need arises for this area. We had 3 dogs with us the yard was enough for them to go out and didn’t have to worry about them getting out.
