Relaxing Retreat

We thoroughly enjoyed our time here. The lakeside location was perfect. Jay and Teresa have provided lakeside seating, screened patio with lake view, and view from inside the home. We biked to downtown and hiked the Black Bear Wilderness Area. Perfect vacation!

Clean & organized

It was a pleasure to stay in this property. The owner was responsive to my special needs (garage space for kayaks and trailer) and it was obvious they take pride in making a good experience for their guests. Everything was super clean and well-organized. We took day trips to kayak in several springs and the Winter Park "venetian canal".

Great location

We were in town for a wedding in Sanford, so it was nice to all be able to stay in a house where we could hang out together. The house was close to the wedding venue, to restaurants, parks with walking trails, the beach and the Kennedy Space Center. We really liked the beer at Wops Hops microbrewery and the food was very good at St Johns River Steak and Seafood. The view of the lake was pretty and we loved relaxing in the hammock.

Highly recommend

This is my family’s second time staying at this location, I was very excited to return here. Owners Jay and Teresa are wonderful, the home is beautiful, very clean. Location is very peaceful, I spent as much time as I could on the dock. Kids enjoyed fishing again this year from the dock. Thank you Jay and Teresa for opening your home for others to enjoy.

Good location.

We chose the VRBO because of proximity to Sanford airport for an EARLY morning flight out. It was only a 1 hr drive to the KSC for our astronaut training experience. And we got to see a satellite launch from the comfort of the dock chairs on the lake. Easy peasy.

Meeting family

This house was awesome, plenty of space for all of us. We were able to meet my son's girlfriends family. Had everyone over for an early dinner. Spent the day relaxing both on the dock and backyard. Jay came over and introduced himself and took a couple our party on a boat ride around the lake. We saw turtles, birds, fish and small alligator in the water. I made a cake with a food processor instead of a hand mixer. I let Jay know a hand mixer would be a great addition. There wasn't any paper towels, but we luckily had our own. It was nice to be able to do our laundry, in fact was one of my requirements for renting a house. We had just gotten off a 12 day cruise. It was 30 minutes to Orlando airport, which was nice since we had a early flight.

A Family Reunion

We loved the house. It had great space for the 5 of us. It was well supplied with everything you need. The view out back was terrific. Sitting on the dock in warm weather was a real treat to the cold, winter we left behind. The neighborhood is quiet and safe. Jay was very responsive to our questions. All in all, a truly wonderful place to stay!

About the host

Hosted by Jay Davidson

Host profile image
We are part time missionaries who have led medical and other mission teams all over the world; focusing for the last few years on the fight against the horrible crime of Human Trafficking. We work through our local church and Teresa has founded "Chains Interrupted" which works locally, nationally and world wide to increase awareness as well as real prevention, rehabilitation and even rescue.
We love to travel and have children in 5 states.

Why they chose this property

When we found this hidden gem on a private water ski lake (Jay is an avid skier), we knew it was the home for us. We like to be close to the Sanford Airport as we travel through there a lot.
We have a second home on this lake (VRBO #1596741) and a third home on the smaller lake in the same neighborhood (VRBO #2422057)
