Repeat stay - it's a great house
We love this house and the beautiful view. It's great for large groups with plenty of space to spread out and even better spots to gather together.

Good location
This was a good location as it worked for family in Winter Haven, Lake Wales and Frostproof. Loved the view-- I'm near the salt water where I live but grew up on fresh water lakes! Loved looking out on the water again. Reminded me of my childhood. :)

Fabulous Week at Crooked Lake
We have been going to Crooked Lake for 30+ years and this was one of our best weeks ever, thanks in large part to this beautiful home! The house had everything we needed for our family of 5. The boys especially loved the bunk beds and learning to kayak. Can’t wait to plan another trip!

Lake house
There were issues the last night w septic backing up which left us unable to use the water, shower, etc. we could not use dishwasher or wash towel as required. Owner was apologetic and got right back to us, however, being a Saturday night nothing she could do. Unfortunate situation for all of us. That being said we hope to VRBO location again

What a beautiful place
Our family had such an amazing time here. The house and view is even more beautiful in person than the photos are able to express. It is also so well equipped for kids and babies. We loved the outdoor games. This probably sounds funny, but one of my favorite parts is that the couch and table fit every single person in our party (this never happens at any place we have ever stayed at even though we never exceed the guest count). It was all perfect.

Wonderful Visit in Lakeside Home on Crooked Lake!
This trip was a combination of family and friends of 50+ years! It was exactly like the listing. The house had everything we needed! The screened porches, overlooking the lake, were amazing and that's where we spent most of our time. It was super relaxing and we also enjoyed the Sandhill Cranes!

A Perfect Family Gateway
Overall, the house is very well-equipped, its location is excellent, close to Legoland and Springs, with supermarkets nearby. The lake in front of the house makes it unique, and it's ideal for children of all ages. Very well-maintained, and the host was very friendly and attentive at all times.

Baseball at Warner
The house is AMAZING! So great with literally everything you need other than what you want to drink and eat. So many fun games to play, the screened in porch areas are amazing and the lake is awesome. Will stay here again as long the team plays here again!! Bok Garden Towers is a must see! Host checked in to ensure everything was ok too. Very responsive to my first time VRBO nervous mom questions. Thank you for your southern hospitality Central Florida. I’ll be taking my “baby”, “honey”, and “sweetheart” home with me. Crazy Fish is a must do! Thank you!
