Summary: We really enjoyed our stay. The house and location was perfect for us. The kitchen was well equipped so we could cook meals on nights we didn't go out. The house was very clean and the perfect size for the myself, husband and dog. We especially liked the screened-in porch and fenced in yard for the pup. Our dog loved his daily walk around Payne Park (very close). Also Maureen was kind enough to bring us 2 bikes so we could ride on the Legacy Trial which was fun. Thanks for making our stay memorable, we'll be back.

Summary: The house was in a perfect location to downtown Sarasota and Siesta Key beaches. It was a quick walk to the local playground for our young son who loves to run around. Maureen was very communicative and flexible on our arrival time. She kindly set up the pack-n-play and booster seat which were two less things we needed to pack and worry about upon arrival. The backyard was an added bonus and the house was very clean.

Summary: This place was off the beaten path, but yet close and convenient to everything. We were close to beautiful Siesta Key, good food, entertainment, and landmarks. We enjoyed the use of the fire pit, the beach chairs and umbrella, and the washer and dryer. My understanding from the discription wasthat the bicycles were readily available, but the property manager said we should have requested t
