Beautiful waterfront home on the Alafia River leading to Tampa Bay and Gulf of Mexico. You will have access to the entire first floor of the house and a beautiful dock. Bring your Boat and fishing rods or skis. (Boat Docking on premises) Excellent Fishing and Wakeboarding. In minutes you can be in Tampa Bay, Williams Park boat ramp is just a few minutes away. If it's your lucky day you can see manatees, dolphins, snook, redfish, sharks, stingrays and more right from the dock! If you're looking for a nice waterfront restaurant we often visit Fin's or Circles in Apollo Beach, Joia on Gibsonton Drive, Rivers Edge or Tiki Docks on the Alafia, & Little Harbor in Ruskin. All noted restaurants are 5-20 mins away! The International Independent Showmen's Association Event Center and Museum is close to property and they have tours of the Museum. It can sometimes be noisy during some events. ( A few days a year). Please check for times and dates before booking if you have concerns.
Visited Florida to see our grandkids. The dock was a big hit. They caught a few catfish to practice their release technique. Check in and out was a breeze. Owner was very responsive. AC went out, but the owner was on top of it⊠had a repair guy out within hours! On a Friday night. A plus! Only downside is that the upstairs unit was not very sound proof- we heard lots of activity up there. But then they had a pile of kids. Kids need to keep busy. Right?All in all we had a great stay.
Every time we washed the floor it got dirtier because the floor tiles werenât grouted and the barbecue had a hole in the bottom and was filthy and found a mouse nesting in it!
Very smooth process and great communication (with very thorough information). Clean property. Quick drive to restaurants and stores. Only downside was lawn care happening at 7am on a Friday.
Nice spot. Downstairs unit needs dressers or small table for bags in both bedrooms and upstairs visitors need to understand someone is below them cause construction workers above us made a too much of a racket
A few family friends and I stayed at Garyâs place for a long weekend. He is very commutative. The place is great and right on an inlet with a dock. We tried fishing but had no luck. I would definitely stay here again.
The property was well decorated, comfortable and very clean. The outside area was nice and well maintained.
The one complaint I have is that the wifi was not working for very long which was an issue at night as we and the kids were looking to wind down...... The TV only works with wifi and we were unable to use our phones. One suggestion I would have for this property is to have a DVD/Blu ray, board games or books for the guests to utilize when something like that happens.
Other than that we enjoyed our stay and would recommend this property.
Beautiful property on a beautiful river, the stay is worth the money
This wasy first time using VRBO and i am very pleased with it, the stay was wounderful, and the host was very propt and responsive. I really liked the setup they had. The river in the back with the nice deck was an added bonus as well.
Our family of seven loved this place. From the dock out back to the spacious living room to the cool kids bunk beds, this was a perfect place for our short visit to Tampa.
