Very Comfortable Home Away From Home!

This was the second time my husband and I (from Michigan) chose this cottage for our winter stay in Florida. And we were not disappointed! It has everything you need for a comfortable and cozy stay, and the hosts respond quickly to questions. It is as attractive as it looks in the photos. Look no further - this is a great choice for your stay in Sanford!

We stay in this home when we're in the area for business. It's perfect for our needs and close to the place we work. Quiet at night when we're getting valuable rest so we can function for the 12 hour work days.
