Cozy House by Bush Gardens

Welcome to this cozy home, just a short walk from the entrance of Busch Gardens. The house features three spacious bedrooms and two bathrooms—the master bedroom includes a shower, while the other bathroom has a tub. There’s plenty of space both inside and out, with ample private parking and a large backyard perfect for relaxation. Additionally, there is an RV parked in the backyard with a tenant living there, though you likely won’t notice her as she is rarely around.

Good one night stay

Clean well equipped home, found as described, no issues. Good for a one night stay. Pillows/mattresses are a little weathered but overall worth the price we paid. Wouldn’t hesitate to stay again.

Cozy Cute and Walking Distance to Park

Enjoyed our stay. This place was perfect for our weekend getaway. We were able to just walk to the park which saved the almost $40 park fee. Enjoyed the complmentary waters and snacks. It was a nice touch.

Cute little property

What a cute little house. It has everything you’d need and was only a 2 min drive to Busch Garden. Lots of fast food restaurants nearby and convenience stores. Veronica was great to deal with and her communication was almost immediate. We appreciate her help and it made our stay very enjoyable. Thank you!

Backyard to Busch Gardens - still quiet

Lovely 3-bedroom house to fit the three couples in our group for the night comfortably in the three queen beds. There were snacks and waters available, which was nice since we were from out of town. It was the perfect location for the night for our trip the next day to Busch Gardens.
