We came down for a short trip to run in the Spartan races. Our dog loved the huge yard to run around.

Tranquility on Lake Josephine

Enjoy the 90' lakefront, comfortable 4 bedroom, 2 bath house (cen. AC/heat) that is completely and tastefully remodeled and includes tile throughout the downstairs, newer appliances and granite counters in the kitchen, plus 3 sliding glass doors for stunning views of the sunset over the lake . One bedroom, with slider and private balcony, is upstairs, which contains a queen size bed and opens to a westward view of the lake. Of the 3 bedrooms downstairs, one has a king bed, one has a queen bed, and the 3rd contains 2 twin beds. The living room has a couch and a large futon and can be closed off by double french doors for additional sleeping space. The screened porch off the living room, also with the lake view, has 2 ceiling fans, gas grill and table for 6-8, which is a great way to barbecue and enjoy the stunning sunsets.
The house sits on almost an acre of land. The 'back yard' has a rolling lawn and 3 towering oak trees, complete with picturesque Spanish moss, fire pit, ending at the lake (not fenced). The complete yard is fenced on 3 sides, but open with 90 feet of natural lake front along this quiet lake. There is a 199 ft. dock with 2 slips and a boat ramp is 2 min. away. At the end of the boat dock is a screened boat house with chairs, inviting another delightful place to enjoy the sunset. Fish from the dock or bring your canoe, kayak, or boat for the open boat slip.
A stand-alone 6 car garage with an upstairs 2 room apartment is also for additional rent. This air conditioned furnished apartment contains an efficiency kitchen and three piece bathroom, two twin beds, table and chairs, and cable TV in the front room and two twin beds in the back room.
Parking is ample and there is space for RV, but no hook up. Please call for availability dates, calendar not always accurate.

A little TLC needed
Where to begin, the first day the water heater died but was fixed within a reasonable amount of time, then the city water feed broke so no water at all, but was fixed in reasonable amount of time. The house is kinda cramped with the king in the master bedroom not leaving much room to get around. The screens on the dock and the back deck were punched out so it made them unusable, but there were fixed a day before we left. Only one of the bedrooms had a TV. The front door jamb blew out but again was fixed so we could lock the door. The photos on line did not truly represent the property, but with some TLC and clean up it wouldn't be too bad. On the up side it was a nice quiet neighborhood with a nice view of the lake. The beds were comfy and there the A/C blew cold, This property needs to update the photos and do some landscaping. With all the problems the owners did offer us a few extra days for free, but we could only stay one due to the fact we had to be back up north.

Paradise every day
We enjoyed the beauty of the lake and all the flowers and wildlife. The neighborhood was mostly quiet and the weather beautiful. The screened in porch was enjoyed by all, including the pets.

Great lake front house.
Sitting at the edge of a beautiful lake this house does not disappoint. 4 bedrooms with many porches off each side of the house. Great location to stay at if going to Sebring Raceway.

Nice but…
The location is really nice, but for the price the accommodations were not great. It felt like staying at a friend’s vacation home. The location is beautiful though. A portion of the family was planning on staying ended up staying at a local hotel instead. Anyways, underwhelmed and wish we just all stayed at a hotel.

Relaxing and comfortable
Overall had a nice Thanksgiving week stay with our extended family. Easy check in and out. Excellent WiFi and cold central A.C. Adequate stocked kitchen. Lots of extra towels and linens. Nice neighbors. The structure of this home and it's furnishings are not comfortable for tall or fat people. The screened in porch needs repair. No dead bolt on outside door. One twin bed was broken and the upstairs mattress desperatly needs replaced. Couldn't fish well because too many lilly pads around the dock. I was a tad disappointed especially because the previous reviews were outstanding.
