“just want you to know that your house was awesome. We will definitely stay there again. We plan on going to Disney once every two years. The pool table was great and the pool was awesome. My daughter didn't want to come out of it. Hot tub was very relaxing too. I appreciate everything.
The Burns Family January 2008
“.We had a wonderful time and enjoyed staying at this lovely house. We were on the move a lot with many days spent at Disney but it was wonderful to come back to a place with the nice atmosphere of home. The kids loved the pool and games room which was great when the adults needed some grown up time. We would love to use it again when we plan a trip to florida and hopefully next time spend a liitle more time at the house to enjoy the pool and hot tub more.

"Hello Dawn,
We had a wonderful trip through the southeastern states and enjoyed your beautiful home in Kissimmee. We visited the Magic Kingdom, MGM, Universal Studios, and Islands of Adventure! We were thankful for the one day that it rained on us for about 20 minutes! My husband and Father both caught large bass in the lake and we had a large & noisy bird visit us around the pool. I didn't mind the bird - I am a bird watcher. I later identified it as a sandhill crane. The pool water temperature was perfect. The lake has beautiful sunsets.

We had a great time. The location was fantastic and being able to have two couples living together but also having their own space was a real bonus.

We would love to return to the villa and would happily recommend it to friends. We had a fantastic holiday - enjoying days out and time in the villa (especially the pool). Thank you so much for your friendly helpful service. We'll be saving for next time.

Tom and I were both impressed with the house and everything in it. The upstairs master suite was unbelievable. Every day it was so such a relief to wake up without having noisy neighbours - such a good way to spend our vacation. We took photos of every room to show. It was truly great.

Hi Dawn -
Trip was great! We really enjoyed our stay at your house & it made our Thanksgiving magical! The kids loved the special touches with the castle in the upstairs bedroom, and the minnie mouse ( my daughters favorite. We felt so welcomed!
