First time in Bradenton and this house makes us want to come back. There wasn’t a feature that was missed. The location is exceptional. Great area for a scenic morning walk and very close to downtown Bradenton. The backyard pool area was spacious and set up with everything we needed for relaxing in the pool. Kimberly was a great host and we highly recommend!!
