We had a wonderful stay at this beautiful lakefront home on the Lake Griffin/Harris chain! The property was peaceful, spacious, and perfectly located close to The Villages and Leesburg and still giving you that relaxing “away from it all” feeling. Waking up to the view of a beautiful sunrise and enjoying the quiet mornings outside was one of our favorite parts of the trip.The home was clean, comfortable, and had everything we needed for a great stay. The outdoor space and large yard were perfect for relaxing, and the location made it easy to enjoy nearby restaurants, shopping, and activities while still having privacy and tranquility.If you enjoy nature, boating, fishing, or simply unwinding by the water, this is a fantastic place to stay. The host was responsive and helpful throughout the process, making everything smooth and stress-free.We truly enjoyed our time here and would absolutely recommend this property to anyone looking for a peaceful lakefront getaway with convenient access to The Villages and surrounding areas.

Fishing vacation

We absolutely loved the house, and it’s perfect location for us to be on the water everyday. Tavares and Dora being right around the corner makes it a perfect opportunity for good eats and plenty of tourist attractions if you’re not coming to fish the whole time like us.

Great location, immaculate house!

Friendly neighbors which was a plus since we had children and a boat. Navigating the driveway with a 37' trailer was a bit of a challenge but we finally made it and thankful for a property that would accommodate it. Great fishing off the dock caught a 4 pound bass!

Exactly what we needed

The house is in a quiet, safe neighborhood. We were in town for the college BASS tournament on the Harris Chain of Lakes, this house is not far from Venetian Gardens boat launch which made it perfect for us. The owner is very nice and helpful and responds quickly. We will likely stay here again on our next trip to Harris Chain.
