Vacation rentals with lake access in St Petersburg

Great family house, exactly as pictured and discribed. Centrally located. Quiet neighborhood. Comfortable beds. Had 3 generations including a baby. There was a stroller and beach wagon. Lots of beachchairs, sun umbrellas, coolers, everything you needed. Lots of beach towels. This stay may be costing us more than we were planning as the brand new induction range was so cool, hard to come home to our old range ;) There really wasnt any thing missing. Great communication and very resonsive. If you have kids dont miss Central Park in Largo. The best playground ever.

Beautiful Tarpon Lake Escapes perfectly fitted our needs for a family Christmas break in the sun away from the grey skies of the UK! Julie's communication extremely friendly, helpful and timely throughout. The place itself is very well equipped -kitchen-everything you need to self cater; bathrooms - all types of toiletry provided; entertainment from board games to table tennis and kayaks, if you're brave enough to venture onto the water! Lovely big decking area to watch the world go by. Our relatives live in Tampa so this was an ideal spot for getting to them as well as trips out to Clearwater, Busch etc. & handy for airport. Nearest area was Tarpon Springs which had an abundance of restaurants - we recommend Hellas (Greek)and Rusty Bellies by the water. We also took a lovely sunset dolphin cruise, direct from Tarpon Springs. These ideas recommended by Julie in her extremely informative online guidebook. All together a fantastic Christmas break. I highly recommend it.

Ariana is one of the kindest and most responsive Airbnb hosts that I have ever dealt with and I have stayed in many Airbnbs. I was staying in the house for 3.5 months with my parents while my Dad got cancer treatment. Ariana was very accommodating in making our long stay possible and was always quick to respond whenever little things came up. She's great. The house is located in a quiet neighborhood in North Tampa, but which is also close to grocery stores (Publix/ Whole Foods) and shopping. The backyard, which looks over a little lake with beautiful cypress trees and lots of birds, was also a nice plus. The bedrooms (aside from the master) were a bit on the small side, as were the bathrooms, but I think this was only an issue because we were there so long. For a few weeks this would not have been a problem. It was also hard to have more than one car there, and some of the furniture could use updating. Overall, though, this is a nice place to stay.

Great place. Worked out very well for our group in town. Place as described and Mo was a great communicator.

Super unique home, great location, close to everything, but also tucked away. The home had something for everyone, fishing, lots of space and very cool antiques. The home was very clean and inviting. Pete and Tammy were great, we look forward to visiting again. Thank you for everything!

Joey was outstanding when it came to any questions we had for the house, very responsive. House is exactly as described and the views are outstanding. Joey even had some extras for our arrival.

We had a great stay at Renay’s house. The house and location are beautiful! Right on the lake with an amazing view. We enjoyed the heated pool every day and like that it is screened in. The actual house was fantastic - we could tell Renay put a lot of thought and effort into making her house a comfortable place to stay. It is very family friendly with an open living space/kitchen and tons of books and toys in the kids room. The beds were more comfortable than most rental houses which we appreciated! Renay was super responsive before and during our stay, we had an issue with the oven while we were there and she had someone in to look at it within a few hours. She sets the standard for what it means to be a super host. Thanks for a great stay!

Fantastic place! Love that it’s on a dead end, right on the water and plenty of things to do in the area. Erik greeted us when we arrived, also we appreciate his flexibility at check in. He recommended a local butcher and we took advantage of the grill on our last evening. The place was just perfect for our pups with a fenced in yard to let them roam freely. I enjoyed coffee on the deck most mornings. We will be looking to book this place next year for our annual hockey tournament trip. Thanks again Erik! We will be in touch for next year!!

It was clean. The espresso machine was a nice amenity to have. There were extra toiletries. We always had the pool to ourselves.

John was a wonderful host! His arrival instructions were detailed and super helpful, and he responded to all of my questions immediately! The Airbnb was lovely, super clean, cute and exactly what we needed for the weekend (and the backyard area was the perfect place to sit near the water and relax!). If you’re looking for a peaceful space that is still super close to everything you might want to do in Tampa, I highly recommend booking a stay here! We will definitely book here again the next time we are visiting Tampa.

From the start, Chris and Nella were incredibly responsive—especially given our last-minute change after our original unit turned out to be nothing like what we expected. We felt so fortunate to have found this place, especially considering the great value for the cost. The unit itself was spotless, and we immediately felt at ease upon arrival. Everything from the high-end appliances to the beautiful bathroom with a Tahitian-style rain shower exceeded expectations. The beds were extremely comfortable, and the space had everything we needed for a relaxing stay. Chris and Nella stayed highly responsive throughout, and the unit felt private, peaceful, and perfectly located—close to downtown St. Pete, great restaurants, and even a charming little park just a block away!

I absolutely loved staying here. It was beautiful and we saw dolphins so close. I will definitely come back. Also the food at the sunset Grill was excellent!!

Had a great stay here ! There is lots to do in the area and local to plenty of beaches. Has many great kitchen amenities and a huge closet if you are traveling…. I would definitely recommend

Excellent location, right across the street from the beach

Thank you Hey Vacay! The space was beautiful, fit the needs for our wedding prep, and we all around had an AMAZING experience. The Hey Vacay team was also incredibly accommodating and communicative. Would highly recommend for anyone else looking for a beautiful spot in a gorgeous, quiet neighborhood that's very central and close to downtown. We had an absolutely PERFECT wedding week.

Our stay was great. The location and view was just what we had hoped for. Loved watching the birds and other wildlife in the canal. The dock was an excellent place to relax.

Wonderful location and wonderful hospitality.

This was the best Airbnb we have stayed at!!!! We travel alot for basketball and this was a favorite for all 9 of us. The house felt so cozy and decor was amazing. Krista was so generous and flexible with the check in/out times and process. The outside was so relaxing and peaceful, along with so much to do. We will be back!!!

Great location and wonderful place. Super responsive host. I'd love to go back

Tim and Jeannie are the best hosts ever! Communication and local recommendations are top notch! If you are like us, you’ll be on the go because Saint Petersburg offers so much with arts, culture and outdoor recreation that most of the time was being out and about. However, when you get back, you’ll feel like you’re at home and everything you need is right there! Sleep in and eat breakfast at the cottage, come back early and watch a movie or hit the hot tub or just do another load of laundry and hit the beach one more time! It’s so convenient and the best location ever! Thank you Tim and Jeannie :)

We had such a great stay at Kristin’s place! It was super cute, really clean, and had everything we needed. Kristin was amazing — super responsive and helpful with all of my questions. The AC worked perfectly, which was such a relief with the April heat, and the shower was awesome too. There was a little construction nearby, but honestly, we barely even noticed it, and Kristin made sure to let us know about it ahead of time. The private dock felt so peaceful and tucked away, and the gazebo made the perfect spot for our wedding ceremony — it was seriously magical. Kristin made us feel so welcome and at home, and we couldn’t have asked for a better place to have our special day. We’re so grateful and would definitely stay here again!

We had the most wonderful stay at this cozy little cottage on the Lake! We were in town for a quick concert and this home was perfect with everything we needed for a relaxing getaway.. The hosts were incredibly responsive, making sure we felt right at home. The only downside was we wished we had more time to stay!! We can’t wait to come back — it truly felt like a little piece of heaven!
