I have stayed in many homes in Englewood over the last 35 years. This home is by far the best that we have ever stayed at. Easy check in an check out. Everything was top notch; all you need to bring is your bathing suit and fishing rod. Most beautiful sunsets ever.

The floors were dirty. Vent for AC in 2nd bedroom was covered up. Need more counter space in bathroom. Would be nice to have a detachable shower head instead of a fixed. Wasn’t aware that it would be multiple renters in one house. Bathroom Vanity drawer broke. Killed 2 Palmetto bugs in the living room. 1 had gotten on my girlfriend. Very upset !
