Central Lakeland Home Convenient to Downtown, Universities and Tampa & Orlando

My historic home is waiting for you! Open, modern space w/ 2 bedrooms + bonus room, back deck and huge back yard with all the amenities needed for a short stay or staycation. Walk Lake Hollingsworth, tour Florida Southern's beautiful campus, or travel 5 minutes to get to Southeastern University. If you're looking for a family-friendly experience, look no further than Bonnet Springs Park, home of the Florida Children's Museum. One of the greatest benefits of this location is how easily you can travel to Disney, Busch Gardens, LEGOLAND, Peppa Pig, Lake Myrtle Sport Complex, and more!

Our guests love how convenient the house is to downtown, and the other activities that take place in Lakeland. Whether you're visiting for family, or traveling to Lakeland for work, or if you're looking for a great location to come down and catch the Detroit Tigers Spring Training, or the SUN 'n FUN Fly In, you'll find so much to do in and around this cozy retreat! Enjoy a quiet, brick paved street, away from noisy traffic, but close to everything in town.

The space
This charming single family bungalow home is located in the most coveted part of Lakeland, just off Lake Hollingsworth! The original wood floors, combined with the newly decorated and freshly painted interior, will make you feel right at home! Enjoy the Florida sunset on the back porch with a glass of wine, or read the morning news with a hot cup of coffee.

You are located near lots of favorite Foodie spots, like award winning Nineteen61, and and just a few miles from downtown and Dixieland.

Enjoy a tour of the Frank Lloyd Wright architecture, or a visit to the Farmers Market on Saturday or check out First Fridays downtown!

I am usually available to offer suggestions for great local activities to help you maximize your stay and fall in love with my home town!

We are waiting for you!
Guest access
You will have full access to the house, and the backyard, including the back deck, which has comfortable furniture to enjoy the warm Florida sunshine!

Other things to note
Plan on bringing groceries, condiments, and other necessities during your stay. The refrigerator will be completely empty, and freshly cleaned. There may be some coffee, popcorn or other snacks available, but for the most part, you'll want to plan your stay as if you were visiting a hotel.

Absolute perfect little house to stay in while bringing our daughter to college. Wonderful little neighborhood. House was clean, cool and had what we needed. The fenced back yard for our dog was great! Beds were cozy. Host was very kind and responsive. We will be back!

Great Home Base to Visit Family

This is a small, comfortable home with a large fenced back yard for the dogs. We were visiting our son and family in Lakeland and the home made for a comfortable place to stay at night. Our host was very responsive to any queries. The home is very close to Florida Southern College and would be great for parents dropping off or visiting students. Don’t miss seeing the campus with its 13 Frank Lloyd Wright buildings on campus—National Historic Landmark for the largest collection of this architect’s buildings .

Comfortable and Convenient in Great Location

It was the perfect place for a weekend stay with my son, parents, and their small dog. Big backyard for the dog to do her thing. 1/4 mile walk down to the paved walking/jogging trail that goes 2.9 miles around a beautiful lake. The neighborhood and area are very nice, right next to Florida Southern College, and a short drive to downtown.

Room for Improvement

The property actually has the potential to provide a great stay, but my stay was unfortunately a disappointment—the entire house, kitchen, cabinetry, cookware, everything, etc. was covered in cat fur from the previous guest. It must have been in the a/c ducts too because I immediately developed sinus problems and a rash—I’m assuming from all the pet dander. The a/c also struggled to cool the house. But, I do think my stay might have been out of the ordinary. Shortly after booking my reservation and paying in full, I received a call from the host saying the house was left in poor condition by the previous guest but she assured me everything would be cleaned. Obviously not the case. I’m sure the host had good intentions, and I think/hope this wouldn’t be the norm for future guests. The host is very polite, the lawn and everything outside was perfect, but the interior honestly needs a DEEP cleaning. Ideally, I would be grateful for a partial refund.

Clean, attractive, comfortable

Our host was very gracious & I would definitely like to stay here on any future trips! It's an attractive house with good heat & air, very comfortable & well maintained. Pretty view of a lake from the back deck. Loved the brick street & access to beautiful Lake Hamilton. You can definitely tell the host puts a lot of effort into making her clients comfortable in this clean home. Thank you Chrissanne!
