Great Place To Stay

Denise (Alberta, Canada)
Review submitted: June 7, 2011   Date of arrival: April 15, 2011

This was a fab place for us as a small family. Our Teenage Son even enjoyed the amenities and the local Skate Park and Water Park was great. The pool was huge and kep nice and clean. We saw lots of wildlife and we were so laid back by the end of our stay we gave up smoking and still have - Thank you Jill and Rocky you made us feel most welcome.

Owners response: Thank you so much Denise and Ian for your lovely words! You were wonderful guests and we very much enjoyed having you all- Loved seeing your son rambling about the neighborhood enjoying himself :)
Hope to see you again- and you quit smoking - that's the greatest! yea you!

What a great week !!

Sanchaz (Tucker, Ga, USA)
Review submitted: June 14, 2010   Date of arrival: June 4, 2010

We have been going south of Tampa twice a year for the last 24 years. But last week we decided to take a last minute vacation somewhere different. We chose Jill & Rocky's cottage in New Port Richey. It turned out to be my favorite vacation !
When we arrived we found that Jill had welcomed us with fresh cut flowers, pastries, and she had given our dog a placemat with his name embroidered on it, with a bowl of water. We could not believe that anyone would go to so much trouble for people renting their property.
Jill & Rocky got home and came over to introduce themselves. They let us know that if we had any needs or problems, let them know, and they would handle them. We had neither.
Sometimes we like to grill, and sometimes we like to go out for dinner. We did both, and all were great.
We love privacy, and this place is has it. It's on a gated cul-de-sac. No traffic, and no one around. We had the pool all to ourselves (and our dog) to sun and swim all day long, and watch boats go up the river. I think that my wife's favorite part, was turning on the underwater pool lights at night, and we would sit out on the patio under the stars (with our dog) enjoying a cocktail or two.
Every morning after sunrise, I would walk our dog around the yard, and we would be greeted by Jill's dog Buddy, and hear Jill's cheerful "Good Morning"
The cottage, weather, food, and especially the pool, were all great.
We plan on returning in Sept., and many more times in the future.
Thanks to Jill & Rocky for making their cottage available for a memorable getaway.

Mother's day retreat!

creativefreedom (New Port Richey,Florida ,U.S.A)
Review submitted: May 31, 2010   Date of arrival: May 8, 2010

...What I desired for Mother's day more than anything else was to treat myself to a mini vacation. I wanted TO find a place were I would feel peaceful, surrounded by nature, a private place to relax and bask in the warmth of the Florida sunshine.
I began my search online,looked at dozens of possibilities. Jill's cottage was the one that stood out from the rest.
From the moment I spoke to the owner on the phone, I knew I had chosen the perfect place for my getaway! Jill is such a warm soul, she makes you feel so welcome.
The cottage, is the most wonderful place I have ever stayed, I didin't want to ever leave! It is so charming and cozy. You feel such a sense of peace, a sense of feeling "at home" away from home.
The location could not have been more perfect.I love having the river right in my backyard, enjoyed watching the boats go by.Just a short stroll and you are in downtown N.P.R with all its ambiance,fine restaurants,festivals and unique shops.
I am looking forward to planing another stay at the cottage!

Charming Riverside Cottage Earns Rave Reviews

Juddie (Danville, IL)
Review submitted: March 5, 2010   Date of arrival: February 1, 2010

Highly recommend this rental property. This is our 3rd February in the Suncoast area, and this cottage far outclassed the others. It was true to it's representation. No disappointments. Had all the necessities, with all of the ambiance that you would want. Beautifully decorated. Lots of beautiful views from many windows. Florida, Florida, Florida!!! Close to a downtown park. Close to many wonderful restaurants, walking distance to all. Antique store. Local store owners were friendly. Even had a fruit market within walking distance for fresh Florida produce and baked goods. Hosts were great, very attentive to your needs. You'll have fun!

Beautiful and charming cottage

HAC166258 (Catlin, Il)
Review submitted: February 22, 2010   Date of arrival: February 6, 2010

My sister and her husband invited us for a two week stay during their month at this vacation rental. The cottage is beautifully and comfortably decorated with a very safe feeling. The owners are careful to be available but not intrusive. The setting couldn't be more idyllic. Many windows in the main bedroom corner the river and the kitchen windows also overlook the river and dock. The pool is close and very well maintained with large pottery jars, pergola and reclining lawn furniture. The patio doors from the living give full view of the sparking pool when the weather isn't perfect. This is a highly recommended rental but please don't book when we want it. Smile.
