Kathleen’s Lakeland Ranch

Overall, I would recommend this house. It is in a good location- close to stores and restaurants. The wrong address was sent so it took a minute to find and I had to ask for check in instructions. The pool was not the cleanest but overall the house was nice.

We stayed for two nights, our plan was to relax at the property when we were not attending Spring Training baseball games. Unfortunately, it was too cold to use the pool during our stay. It is heated but not below 75 degrees, per host. We opted to eat out rather than to cook and dine in, due to the game schedule. We didn't use the kitchen, other than to place leftovers in the fridge. The refrigerator water filter needs to be replaced. Which I did inform the host of this. Two things that I want to mention, the address in VRBO is slightly different than what the host provided. Which I am glad that the host provided the correct house number, we were arriving after dark and missed the street and the house. The other thing is the VRBO info listed check out at 11:00AM. However, our host texted the morning of check out, letting us know check out was 10:00AM. I didn't see this until 9:00AM. This put us in hussle mode. We checked out with 15 minutes to spare. If these details could be updated, it would be good to know. The host was quick to respond. Especially, when there was a concern about temperature settings and where to locate items, like towels. Not to complain, but neighbors' dogs were barking at all hours of the night and the other homes on the street are pretty run down. This was a surprise the next morning, when we went to leave. But the house is 2.5 miles from the Joker Merchant stadium, which was the purpose for our visit. Our trip was for baseball.

House was special because of the backyard pool and proximity to Tigers Stadium. Thank you.

We came to visit family in nearby Plant City. The house is close to all of the fun things we did for the entirety of my birthday week. My kids loved the pool and I loved the convenient location. Carol is a great host.

The property is very clean and functional. We were comfortable and happy.
