We thoroughly enjoyed our stay with the beautiful sunsets from the dock. Itâs quiet and peaceful. The listing was as described and shopping centers are only a few minutes drive away. We would definitely stay here again.
I am a single traveler who needed a place to stay close to Tampa. This unit was exactly as advertised. This is an efficiency unit and the description was exactly correct. The unit was very clean and organized and plenty spacious for one couple. Check in was absurdly easy. The place seems very safe.
Lake was amazing!!! We enjoyed listening to music on the beautiful 2 story dock. The kayaking was wonderful and the owners were lovely. They even washed clothes for us. Highly recommend. Will come back again.
When we arrived was greeted promptly, owners were very helpful and showed us around. Did not use lake area much as this was a last minute booking. Would definitely stay again if ever back in that area.
We had a wonderful time staying here! Friendly hosts! The view was absolutely gorgeous on the lake and the fishing was fun! There is great places to eat close by. Frank was very hospitable and gave advise on fishing techniques and made sure we had everything we needed.would definitely stay here again!
We had a great time at this welcoming cottage on a beautiful Florida lake in a beautiful lake region. Cherri and Frank were good hosts and very responsive to our needs.
We selected this property on its location and how it was away from the busy of Tampa. The cottage was perfect and the lake offered a great opportunity to relax after a busy week. Would choose it again if in Tampa.
Sweet cottage. Lake was fabulous, very peacefull. We enjoy every minute of our stay. The cottage has everything that you may need. My hostesses the best. Looking foward to stay againg.
My husband and I Love this place it was so Amazing. The Lake was Beautiful and he had a Great time catching the Bass fish even though he had to release it. It was such a Cute place and just perfect for the both of us. It was convenient to restaurants and Tampa Downs Racetrack. We hope to be back this summer or in the fall.
The property was perfect for us! Exactly what we wanted! The cabin was private and clean. Although it's on the same property as the hosts' residence, you would never know it! We had full use if the dock for fishing or just sitting with our coffee in the morning. We caught a lot of fish!! It was exactly what we needed!
This cottage was the perfect place for our honeymoon. We got the opportunity to take a canoe out on the lake and fish to our hearts content. The owners are sweet and exceptionally hospitable. Everything here was spotless and beautifully maintained. The brand new top level sunset deck exceeded our expectations and made the view that much more incredible!! I wish I could give this place 10 stars because they truly deserve it. 10/10 would stay here again!
Great place and location. However there was no hot water in the kitchen and no soap/shampoo in the shower. I bring my own anyways. But it did list them in the amenities as having.
My wife and I needed a place to stay for the tail end of our trip and we decided to stay here. Iâm familiar with the area since I relocated from here but I never knew about this hidden gem! It was a gorgeous property on the water, they had fishing rods and a nice deck set up to either cast some lines, enjoy coffee by the water in the morning, or even grill out and eat next to the lake. Cherri and her husband were amazing hosts and super responsive. 10/10 we would come again
The owners were very nice and attentive to our needs. It wasnât as relaxing as we had hoped . The main house, the garages, and the cottage where we stayed got new roofs. Very noisy. The owners did the right thing and refunded our money for the 2 days the cottage roof was being replaced. We wish we could have spent more time on the property getting together for happy hour with Frank & Cherri.
Visiting my friends in the area, I found this gem nearby. This cottage is at the end of a barn, home, and garage half-circle that is down a secluded street. Cherri provided me with all the information needed and quickly responded to any of my questions. With that info, I let myself into a cozy studio cottage with a welcome area.
The kitchen was nice. No stove, but the supplied hot plate is more than enough for cooking on vacation, lol. The bed was a comfortable memory foam mattress and pillows with a 55-65" TV on the opposing wall. My favorite part of the bathroom was the shower. It was about 60" made of stone and tile. Definitely getting one for my home.
To be honest, I never wanted to stay at a rental that was on the owner's property. I'm afraid I would feel like I'm invading their space. Because of Cherri's place, and now knowing what to look for, I'm pretty confident that won't happen. :)
P.S. The only thing I didn't like was not having time to take advantage of the backyard amenities. This will be resolved the next time I visit the area. :)
Our family loves living on this beautiful lake and we love to have guests stay in the cottage. We moved here in 2008 and immediately fell in love with this property. My husband wanted to raise our kids the way he was a lake where you can fish, swim and kayak the day away. I am a writer and author of a children's book called Lollipop Seeds that Sprout for Kind Deeds. Hence the name, Lollipop Cottage!
This almost 2 acre property is often described as a resort. Our goal is for guests to feel like they are staying in a park, with lush green grass and tropical plants to a gazebo (perfect for our kids wedding someday!) a lakeside hammock and even a zipline. Relax and renew yourself.
We fell in love with the sunsets over the lake. We've had the best conversations over a glass of wine in the gazebo. We travel a lot on business so we designed the cottage interior to match what we love about the best hotels we stay in---flat screen tv, roomy sitting area with plenty of sun, comfy bed and of course coffee.
