We found everything as presented, organized, clean and well stocked. Even though we did not prepare meals, other than breakfast, the kitchen was well stocked and in good working order. The neighborhood is filled with several Century Homes, enjoyable to see while out walking the area. The Host Edgar is quick to respond to any questions. We would not hesitate to stay at the "Exquisite Family Home" in the future.

Cute, clean, nice location.We checked in, quite easily around 5:30 and left by 10 am, so we didn't spend much time on the house. The location is great, easy to get to downtown Lakeland and surrounding parks.Layout is a bit odd....you access one bedroom either through the first bedroom or a hallway from the laundry room.

Comfy, clean and cozy location for a brief respite during our Lakeland stay. Thoroughly enjoyed the parks (Hollis Gardens and Bonnet Springs Park) during our visit. The breakfast recommendation from host (Ke'Ke's) was wonderful! Appreciate the directions to the local and our stay. Thank you!

Vintage Lakeland home

This home is from the 30s 40s so floor plan is unconventional but the owner does a pretty good job of making it comfortable. Try to arrive before sundown because you have to find the alley behind the home to access it. The owner was kind and attentive.

Quaint Cottage

A lovely home and perfect location for what we were in town for. So many great walks from this location: Lake Hollingsworth, Lake Morton, Mirror Lake, all accessible by foot. The home itself looked like a cottage on the outside but was remarkably spacious on the inside. Very clean and had everything we needed including options on the TV for my elderly Mother.

Wonderful host and property

I booked this home to evacuate from Milton. The host, Edgar, was extremely responsive to my questions and his kindness during this very stressful situation was so appreciated. Beautiful classic Florida craftsmen well maintained and larger than I thought. Great location less than a mile from downtown. Highly recommend!
