This is an immaculate house that was completely renovated & updated in 
2005 and is situated on 1/2 acre parcel on Lake Thomas.

The fishing is awesome from the private dock! Lake only allows 10hp
boats or less to ensure a quiet and peaceful stay.  House has
everything waiting for you. Show up with your
suit case, a cell phone(if you want phone service! lol) a laptop
(internet service provided ) and we have everything else for you.

The large kitchen with it's honey maple cabinets and granite counter
tops feature all stainless steel appliances.  The kitchen is fully
equipped with all pots, pans, silverware, food storage containers,
etc. etc.  If you find that we are missing anything in the kitchen,
PLEASE put it on our suggestion book so that we can get it for you. 
It is important to us that everything you could need is here for you!
 In addition to this we also have a gas grill situated outside the
lanai for you to cook from if you would like to.

The large family room boasts an awesome fireplace, with a sectional
couch, and 32" JVC TV for your enjoyment.  A dvd player is there if 
wish to sit back and relax and enjoy some movies.  We also have an X
Box game system hooked up with about 8 different games for you or for 
the kids.  You will find a stereo system and CD player to be able to 
relax, and enjoy some music by the fireplace.

The living room looks out over the lake, and offers a 27" TV and a
wrap arounnd sectional couch with overstuffed chair to relax and
enjoy.  The sliding glass doors off of this room lead you to the
screened lanai where a wicker table and chairs are situated.   

The two bathrooms are full baths, both having tubs with showers.  Both
bathrooms have all the linens that you could want.  In addition to
this we also stock beach towels if you decide to venture out. A hair 
dryer is located in each bathroom also.

There is a washer and dryer to help you with any laundry needs that
you might have while you are staying with us.  An iron and ironing
board are also there if you should need them.

The master bedroom has a queen size bed, and is equipped with a 19" TV
for viewing.  The middle bedroom has two twin beds, and the small
bedroom has one twin bed in it.  

Cleaning service is provided at the end of your stay, but if you would
like daily or weekly cleaning that can be arranged for.

You will love this house, and Tampa is easily accessible via the
veterans express way which is 1.2 miles from the house, and the
Airport is approximately 11 miles away.

This beautifully decorated and appointed house is a true jewel! This
is the third time my wife and I have used Vacation Rentals and we have
never been disappointed. This house is our favorite. With everything
you could want in your own home, plus the view from the lanai, this is
a true stress eliminator. It was fun to check the weather at home
using the wireless internet hookup and note the 60 degree difference.

Property is located just off of the Veterans express way, at the Dale
Mabry Exit.   The house is 1.2 miles north of the exit ramp.  Property
is just north of Cheval Golf and Country Club, one of the more elite
communities in Tampa.  When you arrive at the property you will be
impressed with how close you are to all amenities (Grocery Store and Super
Target are about two miles north) and how peaceful and quiet the
property and community are.   Parking is plentiful, and RVs are welcome.
