The house was perfect. It had everything that we needed for our week of vacation. We have 3 kids ranging from 13 to 20 years of age and each bought a friend. We never felt crowded and it worked out great. All the kids stayed entertained all week without us ever leaving the grounds and without us having to entertain them. We got to relax and let them go. Already talking about coming back next years. Thanks Leo everything was great.

Wonderful Vacation

My family and I loved our stay at this beautiful house. It was roomy, clean and very comfortable. We really loved the gated front deck because my grandchildren and dog could run and play safely and we did not have to worry about them getting away from the house. It was so quiet and peaceful and our dog really enjoyed the squirrels, birds and turtle playing in the front yard. The owner was gracious and very quickly addressed any questions. You cannot go wrong staying here. We rented golf carts and had a ball driving around in those. The pools are great and so much for the grandchildren to do. Hope to stay here again. Thank you to the owner for a great vacation.

We had a good time, the house was so nice and roomy. Everything was so clean, I hope we left it the same. The BBQ had a leak so we didn't use.But our family enjoyed it very much even our dogs had a good time. They loved the beach. Hope we can do this again. Thanks

Labor Day Weekend

First of all, we sent out almost 20 emails to home owners listed on your website asking if we could rent their property during the Labor Day weekend. Only 4 property owners replied! Leo was the first to respond and we really enjoyed his house. It was clean, big and in a very quiet area of Ocean Lakes. Well worth the money.

I hope to rent this property again and would advise anyone wanting a nice place to stay to rent this house.

"Best Kept Secret in Ocean Lakes"

We already knew that Ocean Lakes was a fabulous vacation--whether it is for your family vacation, a romantic getaway or just a safe place to have to come from the excitement of the beach. We always had a dilemia while vacationing since we all enjoy different things. However, our young daughters love the pools, playgrounds, putt putt and ocean while there are limitless things for our teen son to do as well. He loves basketball, fishing in the ponds, enjoying the ocean but we all love cruising the strip at night with the golf carts! Great family fun for everyone. I appreciate that we can all come in from the beach, shower and take a nap...and head back out for more! I haven't found a family yet that visited and didn't make plans to return.
We stayed the week of July 4th and found the property to be very clean and spacey. I personally found that the pictures did not do this home justice. We were very impressed with the size and quality of this home. We brought our little dog and found the porches and sunroom to be extremely safe for him and our daughters. We especially appreciated the quiet and roomier lot in the MH section. This is something you may not realize unless you have had to squeeze your car into the tiny parking of some units. We had room for our large SUV, our truck and golf cart with trailer. Mr Leo was wonderful about giving us all the necessary information and was most helpful throughout the entire rental process. I would definitely give this 5 stars. From all the properties I have stayed in inside of Ocean Lakes in the last 10 years, this is definitely my favorite....I almost didn't want to write a review because I wanted to keep it for myself! :) Don't hesitate to call because I am sure that many other previous renters feel the same as I do!!
