About this property

Great for long stays, work at home, beach or pool. Plenty for the kids to do!

Your large round kitchen table and plentiful chairs makes a great place for family get-to-gathers. Need more seating, put everyone on the huge white living room sectional alone. The whole family can enjoy it, this ranch floor plans means no steps for toddlers and grandparents.

It's a short distance ( 2.5 blocks) from Howard Park Hideaway to the entrance of Howard Park itself, it's a huge a 144 acre park and beach includes walking, hiking or biking trails which makes for a great place to get some exercise or the many covered shelter houses make a great place for parties and fun family outings

Take our bicycles and ride to near by Sunset Beach, about a mile away, and is renown for it's evening sunsets.

For more beaches take a short drive to Dunedin, FL and Honeymoon Park. It's two white sand beaches are part of the island that is a protected state park.

Take Jolly Trolley and go a little further south and to the world famous bustle and bustle of Clearwater Beach with all the shopping and restaurants to enjoy.

Birthday week at the beach
I stayed with my family at this property for a week and had a wonderful time. The house was clean, well-equipped with extra pillows, blankets, towels. We went to the beach everyday and hung out at the pool in the afternoons. There was plenty of beach towels, chairs, and other gear. We rode the bikes to nearby Howard Beach for the sunsets. The house is located in a residential neighborhood and we felt very safe. We had to contact the host one time and they answered the phone immediately. Very easy check-in and check-out process. It was a very relaxing and fun stay. Would recommend to others.

Just what we were looking for
We had a great time at this property. The house and pool were just right for our family of 8 and felt like home. It was nice to have things like beach towels and shade for at the beach. We used the pool at least daily and enjoyed the layout of the home for when we wanted to watch a movie or play games. The house was close enough to groceries and parks and gave us quick access (within 30 mins) to beautiful beaches and fun cities to visit. We know there was more to do than we were able to fit in which makes us interested in coming back.

The location of this home is a short walk to Sunset beach and close proximity to local attractions. The home was very comfortable and well stocked for our week long stay. Our family enjoyed the pool add playing board games on the back patio. We would definitely stay again!

Clean, comfortable, well appointed.
My family and I enjoyed our stay in Tarpon Springs. The house was very clean and comfortable. The layout was great (kids rooms down one hall, master suite off the livingroom). The beds were comfortable and the kitchen was well stocked. We loved having the bikes available to use during our stay, and really appreciated the "little extras" like the bottle of wine that was there for us when we arrived after 8 hours in the car, the coffee pods and snacks, the quality toilet paper (not the rough cheap stuff you often get in rentals), and the super fluffy towels that looked brand new.

Family Christmas Vacation
The best rental in our 15 years of visiting Tarpon Springs/Clearwater with our family. The owners are by far the best we have worked with and the house was not only amazing but located close to so many family friendly events. This rental is perfect for all ages and for any family gathering. We will rent this house again for our future visits to the area.

Wonderful!
The house was very clean and spacious. We loved the layout of the house with its open floor plan. Furniture, bedding, linens, and appliances were comfortable and of good quality. All rooms had large flat screen TVs. The home was well stocked with necessities and many nice extras. The pool and pool area was well kept and clean. The backyard area was private and the neighborhood was quiet. We were happy with how close the house was to Howard Park and two beaches. We found many good restaurants and things to do in the Tarpon Springs area. We highly recommend this property!

Stunning experience
The property itself is exceptional- such a nice, clean, beautiful home! All rooms have been curated thoughtfully to ensure you have everything you'd need in terms of space and amenities. The pool is great- they keep it very clean and is awesome to come back to after a long day at the beach. Lots of beach and pool toys as well as umbrellas and chairs provided for an effortless stay. Our family came in from Chicago and some things came in handy that we wouldn't have thought of since our heat and beaches are so different from Florida. The location is a huge plus- very close to the beach (Howard Park) - nice for a quiet, local experience instead of the large beaches in Clearwater or Tampa. Our family of 7 adults and 2 small children under 4 slept very comfortably. We had an amazing first family vacation - thank you Frisbees!!

This is an Awesome home ina great location
This is what makes VRBO great; owners who are responsive, home which is wonderfully clean, well maintained, very well stocked with all necessities and then nice to haves, very child friendly and owners who respond quickly and helpfully. Been going to Florida in the winter for over 15 yrs this is the best combination of beach proximity and comfortable home

We enjoyed the open layout of the living space. Perfect for our larger group. Well equipped kitchen. Property had all the extras for trip to the beach. Our week was on the cool side so when we asked about turning up pool heater, Steve came the next morning to do that!
