Safety Harbor stay.

What an amazing place! So peaceful. The outdoors is a perfect oasis for relaxing. The cottage is a short walk to town etc. Love all the live Oaks. The inside is decorated beautifully and the kitchen was great for cooking. We had to leave due to a family emergency and Steve could not have been more understanding and compassionate. Looking forward to our next visit.
