Great place to stay!

I have never stayed at such a well-stocked house before. The view of the duck pond while sitting on the lanai was a lovely feature of this house. While we were concerned about being 30 minutes from the amusement parks, the ride from the house had a great traffic flow and we didn't mind it. I would recommend this house for your next relaxation central Florida.

We’d do it again in a heartbeat!

Such a lovely place, and exactly as pictured. We didn’t mind that some of the furniture was worn because it means it was well loved and enjoyed. The pool was amazing! And the fishing… We caught and released almost a dozen bass. We will definitely book again next year! We already miss the pool.

Amazing

Such a lovely Home-from-Home. All is there, very clean an looked after. Pool looks onto lake, which made every morning /day even more amazing. Great area. Been here over New year and every one in the area had a party, but in a very lovely, family environment and very respectful regarding music noise. I believe after 1am all went quiet, which we liked. I loved how much thought and planning has been made for each room. Happy we picked Lois&Craigs home. The communication was awesome and clear. The area is great. Shops are close by. Great carparking space in front of the house. We would 100% recommend it and even return ourselves again. 🏡🙏 Thank you for letting us stay here.

Few things to be aware of... but would stay here again.

First, Lois is great. Communicating with her from the time we booked all the way until check in was smooth. Lois was extremely accommodating when our arriving flight changed to the red eye and we needed to check in much earlier than anticipated. PROS: House is beautiful, big, spacious, wonderful beds, master bath tub could fit a gorilla its so big, kitchen was top notch, LOIS HAD FANS FOR PEOPLE LIKE ME WHO CAN'T SLEEP WITHOUT ONE! The garage had extra fun stuff to do. I am now a pro at ping pong. Plenty of places to sit and enjoy family time. Large spacious closets with a few hangers. Good washer and dryer. CONS/ NEEDS ATTENTION: My biggest issue was the controlled AC. I refuse to stay in hotels because now they lock it in at 75+ degrees and you have no control over how the room feels. Unfortunately, this house is the same. I felt uncomfortable with the note left on the wall stating that the AC was monitored and if we placed it below 75 degrees the home owner would remotely move it back to that degree. I understand some people can be irresponsible and lower the temp to a degree that would freeze up the unit., but not having a choice in controlling the AC was a definite issue for me. We did move it down to 71 at one point and minutes later it was set back to 75. I felt watched and a sense of "you're in trouble." Towels were very smelly. The towels smelled like mildew and dirt. Not just one of them, all of them. The shower curtain liners were unbelievably filthy & molded. My mother actually refused to shower with it so she left it outside of the tub and placed several towels down to soak up any water that got on the floor. I have a picture to upload for that. The lights were a bit quirky. Many lights/lamps are on extension cords/strips and they often did not work. We had to replace the master bathroom bulb when we arrived because it would not turn on. *I would advise you against getting pool heat* In my opinion, I believe we should have been credited back the pool heat fee for our weeks long stay. I have a picture that will show that the heating unit was frozen with about 3 inches of ice. Lois and I discussed that the pool temp heat is set at 88 degrees. I wanted to make sure that my family could enjoy it in December. The pool was 70 degrees or colder the entire time. Only ONE heat pump in the pool was open. I did not want to argue so I let it go when she said it was "mother nature." I would happily stay here again with a few changes.

As retired teachers we have enjoyed many travel opportunities including Alaska, Hawaii, Norway, Mexico, Myrtle Beach, St. Maarten, St. Thomas, Las Vegas, California, Texas, Florida and the east coast. After many trips to Florida, we decided the time was right to purchase our second home. The Kissimmee area has so much to offer that we knew we wanted to be a part of the community.
