WATERFRONT GEM! This is a stunning Waterfront Property located on the Anclote River, across from a 2-acre conservation island. The photos truly speak for themselves! So peaceful, tranquility and privacy are guaranteed as you lounge around on the large deck and enjoy your own private heated pool.

The property is in close proximity to many great golf courses and beaches and is located only 2-miles from the scenic Pinellas Trail. It has a very central location in the Tampa Bay area, all the excitement of Clearwater and Tampa are only a stone's throw away.

This tastefully furnished home has 3 bedrooms (sleeps 6), 2 baths, an over-sized 1 car garage, fully stocked kitchen, living room, Florida room with a wood-burning fireplace, dining room with a large picture window that overlooks the pool and river, and a large private pool and deck that you can fish from.

(No swimming in the river, PLEASE! MUCH WILDLIFE!). It is not uncommon to spot majestic Manatees and Dolphins in the river. Enjoy bird watching? This would be the place to stay, as many exotic birds can be spotted from the backyard.

The house is fully equipped with everything that you would have at home, all you need to do is bring your toothbrush! You can relax with a cold beverage by the pool and enjoy all the comforts this waterfront vacation home has to offer in a resort-like setting.

Great stay!

My family and I (myself, spouse and 2 teenage sons), had a relaxing time hanging out by the pool, going kayaking and playing games. It was also a very centrally located area nit too far from nearby attractions like Tampa, Tarpon Springs and Clearwater.

Tranquil, lovely, comfortable and clean home; fun wildlife watching!

The owners were had quick responses, good direction and lots of tips posted in the home. The house was very spacious, clean and had everything we could need and more. We really enjoyed the wildlife on the river (very excited to see a first time view of a Roseate Spoonbill!). There was so much to do and see in the area. Tarpon Springs is a fun visit, the nearby beaches were quaint and calming. But it was always hard to leave as the pool was great, kayaking was awesome, and just relaxing on the deck was a treat. Highly recommend choosing this place to stay!

Peaceful and Relaxing Vacation

The interior of the property was immaculate. The pantry contained plenty of ingredients and basic items needed to cook. Lots of pots and pans. The garage contained games for the teens and my husband and I fished from the back deck. The property manager was accommodating and easy to communicate with. We won’t hesitate to rent this property again.

Great house with everything you need!

The house was perfect for our family and had everything we needed during our stay. The house was fully stocked which was perfect for the nights we wanted to cook and relax by the pool. The deck and pool area were the perfect place to relax after a day at the beach. Our kids loved the pool and using the variety of board games in the house. The house is close to local beaches and restaurants. We would definitely stay here again in the furture.

First time Floridians!

We enjoyed our stay here immensely. The home met all our needs. Comfy beds, well-equipped kitchen, nicely decorated, bright and clean. Waking up each morning to a beautiful sunrise sipping our coffee on a spacious deck overlooking the Anclote River. Simply divine!!! Not to mention a pool to relax and cool off, kayaks as well. Close proximity to many area beaches especially Sunset Park. A must see at dusk! We frequented many of the area nature preserves and utilized the numerous bike trails. Took in the local flair and dined at many restaurants down on the Sponge Docks. Visited the sights such as The Florida Aquarium in Tampa Bay. Lots to explore nearby! We thank the family for opening their lovely home to us. And look forward to returning next mid-March 2023. The Rodiers of Francestown NH

Good time overall.

This property had everything especially if you have kids (bikes, scooters, kayaks fishing rods and even mini indoor golf) . Clean and well maintained. Property manager responded within minutes when I had some questions. Absolutely amazing views . Weather permitting you should spend as much time as possible outside on a very spacious deck. (Lots of different birds every day in front of the house ) if you love kayaking spend few hrs exploring the area . Lots of beautiful nature all around. Shopping malls within 10-15 min driving but there is also grocery store few blocks away. The only negative thing I can say is misleading advertisement of a heated pool. One of the reasons why we booked this place was b cause of the heater pool. Advertising says solar heater and I was under impression that if there is plenty of sun it's connected to a solar panels and that's how it gets heated but out of 7 days 5 had plenty of sune and pool was super cold. I guess solar mena when it's hot outside pool is hot . But other than a pool all was great. If I had to come back to the area in more warmer time I would definitely choose this place again

Perfect family location

My family and I had an amazing time at this home. The pool was great for the kids, and my fiance enjoyed fishing right off the deck. The deck is so roomy for entertaining, and we had family that lives in the area come over for a fun pool day. The grill was ready to go and cooking utensils provided. We actually packed pool toys but did not need to as this home has EVERYTHING you could need. Shampoo, conditioner, towels, cooking utensils, bikes, kayaks, pool toys, extra blankets, a closet full of games for the kids, several tvs.... I mean EVERYTHING! We also took a couple extra kayaks because we thought they only had 2, but they had 4! Check in was a breeze and the property managed responded promptly to all communications. We will definitely be staying here again.

Peaceful retreat

We enjoyed the house very much. In the morning we had coffee on the back deck watching and listening to the birds on the island. It was very peaceful. The house was clean and had everything we needed. The manager was very quick to reply when we had questions. All in all it was a great stay. We also loved the area in general. Tarpon Springs and Dunedin are cute towns for walking. It's more residential so didn't have that spring break feel of places like Ft Lauderdale. There are half a dozen inexpensive golf courses within 15 minute's drive. And there are plenty of good seafood restaurants around. 40 minutes north is kayaking on the Weeki Wachi, which was incredibly beautiful. The only negatives were some of the equipment listed. We were looking forward to kayaking and biking. But the bikes were rusted and seized up making them unusable. And the kayaks were fairly small so we couldn't use them. They were good for someone shorter and up to about 150 pounds, but could not hold a taller or bigger person. And there was a cold snap when we were there, so the solar heating of the pool was not enough to make it comfortable. I imagine if the air temp is at 75 or so, the pool heat would have been more effective.

Not handicap access and then some

When we booked it said this home was handicap access. It has a sunken living room And teenie bathrooms that a chair can not even fit through. My wofe was not even able to shower so we had to drive home midweek for her to do so. Her leg was also very swollen from crawling in the restrooms for the while stay. We brought this to the attention of the owners and they changed the listing by removing handicap but nothing in the way of an apology. There were several large dead palmetto bugs throughout the house when we get there but that can happen if the house was left vacant for a while. So this in itself was not disturbing. Also one child wet the bed slightly. We rolled up the sheets and found a mattress cover. They still insisted on keeping our security deposit on top of cleaning fee. All things considered, I can not recommend this property especially if you have any mobility issues. Sadly we will not return and need to continue our search for a waterfront get away
