Summary: The house was easy to find. Clean and well stocked. Pool was wonderful. Only issue was there were no dressers or chest of drawers in the bed rooms. There was plenty of room for slipping off in the house if you just needed to be alone for a minute or two. Two rooms down stairs was great for those in our family not able to do stairs anymore. Well located for our trips to Bush Gardens, SeaWorld, and Legoland. It was nice to sit in the front room and watch the rain storms cross the lake, something relaxing about that. Over all, we would stay there again.
