Owner/Manager purchased this house in 2015
Very secluded and private in the heart of the very desirable 'Redland' area of southwest Miami-Dade County, just minutes from Biscayne Bay, the Everglades, the FL Keys, factory outlets, and surrounded by south Florida tropical agriculture (fruits, vegetables, ornamental nurseries, tropical fish farms, etc.). This place is very private and you will feel like you are in the country.
Very large patio area for parking boats, multiple vehicles, RVs, etc. You can have a campfire, barbeque, clean your fish, wash your vehicles/boats, etc. on over 3,500 square feet of brand new concrete patio. The house sits on 5 acres of tropical fruit trees and has an electric gated entry way.
We stayed here while visiting Everglades National Park. It was perfect with our 2 small children. The owner communicated with us well and left detailed instructions on everything that we might need to know about the house. It was fun to have fresh limes available and to be able to walk around the beautiful property. The patio area was nice to hang out on and it was a relaxing space to sit in the evening. Thank you for the great stay.
We stayed here while visiting the national parks in South Florida. The house was easy to find and we knew exactly what to expect thanks to the detailed instructions/information provided prior to arrival. When we arrived we were thrilled with the comfort and cleanliness of the house! The kitchen and bathrooms were well stocked and everything was easy to find. We were greeted with a bowl of fresh picked limes from the orchard which were delicious in our evening cocktails. The house was the perfect size for our family of 4 (2 kids, 2 adults) and the orchard was a wonderful place to explore with the kids. We truly enjoyed coming home every evening to this relaxing, peaceful retreat. Wayne was a pleasure to work with-even when I accidentally booked for the wrong week and had to change the dates-and made sure we had everything we needed. If we are ever in S. Florida we will defintely stay here again!
Great location for exploring southern Florida. The house was very spacious and clean. Everything you need including fresh picked limes. I would definitely recommend this home.
We enjoyed our stay. The house is very nice, and had plenty of room for our family of 4. Limes were in season and our youngest daughter loves them, so we made (non-)key lime pie and limeade. The location is very convenient to the Everglades, which we visited both days that we stayed here.
My friends and I greatly enjoyed our stay in Homestead. The property is well maintained, the owners are extremely helpful and the house is very comfortable. The location is close to food and the places we wanted to visit, but was also quiet and felt like it was far away from noise and crowds. The description in the listing is very accurate. We appreciated the fresh fruit as well. Thanks for a wonderful few days!
This rental house was perfect for my family of 6. It was clean, spacious and had everything we needed. We were in town for a wedding so we rented this house because it was minutes away from the venue, the location was perfect. The owner was very accommodating. Again, great rental!!!!!
