Great find!

We were only in town for one night to watch my son run track at FSU. This was a great find, very clean and quiet and exactly what we needed! My daughter liked the grapefruit tree too! We will be back in the future!

Relaxing stay.

The place is great. The owners were extremely amazing. They helped us out with our pets. We have four dogs. My father passed away, and we were in a tight spot. They worked with us, and couldn’t have been at a better time. Thank you so much for helping us. It was the right house to stay at. We felt at home and it was extremely relaxing there. Very quiet neighborhood. We will stay there again.

A perfect home for a stay in Tallahassee

We really enjoyed our stay. The house is just as pictured and is very well stocked. The bottle of wine and muffins were a great touch and made us feel welcome. The house is clean and the beds are comfortable. It’s a quiet neighborhood and conveniently located to FSU. Would definitely stay here again.

Relaxing Family weekend

Our extended family was in FL so we spent a relaxing weekend visiting our daughter in Tally. We had plenty of room to spread out but enjoyed coffee and meals outside, lounging around the pool, and games at the large dining room table. Casey was awesome and super accommodating we can’t wait to return!!!!

Beautiful house

The house is more beautiful than the photos show, comfortable, clean and with everything you need to enjoy a quiet and wonderful stay. The hosts were very friendly and always ready to quickly answer any questions or concerns. Without a doubt, a fantastic option to stay in a group and enjoy a quiet atmosphere just 10 minutes from college.

Loved this rental

I highly recommend this rental. The house is very comfortable and clean. The backyard was spacious and beautiful. We brought dogs along and they immediately felt at home as well. The neighborhood is calm and quiet but close enough to Uber out to anywhere you may want to go in town. Did I mention the water pressure? These showers are amazing! Will definitely try to book again next time we visit.

Family time at FSU, round 4

Love this place...! If you are looking for a landing site for a visit to FSU with friends and/or family, look no further. Spacious, well appointed and the fenced in pool is amazing. The owners, Chris and Casey, will stop at nothing to ensure you have a great experience.

FSU CONNECTION

We found everything to be perfect for a visit with our college student. Quiet neighborhood, close to restaurants, college and stadium. A very well kept property and the house is clean and comfortable. Pool and grill made it feel like home. We certainly will be going back for the next (4) years!

Wonderful!

We had a great time! The house was beautiful, and so relaxing. Outside by the pool, and under the gazebo, was great! There was just enough breeze to keep the heat from being too much. And watching all the squirrels playing in the back when we weren’t out there was fun too! The hosts were wonderful, answered quickly, and were extremely nice! Thank you for a wonderful weekend!

Life is better by the pool!

Exceptionally clean home in a quiet neighborhood! Every thing was perfect we could not have asked for a better stay. The pool was very relaxing, just what we needed before starting our way home from a long weeks travel. The hosts were a pleasure to communicate with. Hope to return one day. 🙂

Graduation Stay

Throughout our stay we continually said, “this place is fantastic!” The home is cute and quirky in the best way and close to everything we needed. My parents stayed with us and we had plenty of room (5 adults). Overall impressions: extremely clean and comfortable- nice towels & bedding, complete kitchen. We had several family meals and had everything we needed. Casey and Chris were just like the house- fantastic! Our plans changed a little and they made it seamless. Only downside for us is that we didn’t find this sooner. It’s a perfect place for families visiting Tallahassee.
