Great location for Sun n Fun

My family and I stayed here for our annual trip to Sun n Fun in Lakeland. This comfortable home ended up being cheaper than a hotel room! Location was in a quiet neighborhood about 25 minutes from Lakeland. Very clean property, easy keypad door entry on arrival. comfortable beds and cold AC. Would definitely recommend!

Home is in a good location. Nice quiet neighborhood and still close enough to bigger cities for activities. We travel with our pets and this home is pet friendly, which is nice. We will definitely stay here again when we come to visit our daughter at school.
