"We had stayed there once before and liked it. This being our second time we had expected the same experience When we got to check in the agent was super nice and treated us like old friends .Gave us a room.on the ground floor close to the front desk.in case we needed anything. It was raining so there was no swimming or hot tubbing but we didn't go there for that anyway. The bed was nice and soft. There was a small.leak in the shower but they were prompt and efficient about fixing it"

"This is our fourth time staying at LittleLakeLife. It gives us the perfect place to enjoy our Floridian holiday. It is clean, tidy and has everything you need for a comfortable stay. It is located in a nice quiet neighbourhood and the lake setting is so peaceful. It is wonderful to just sit and enjoy the view. But above all it is ideally located for all you will need to do when visiting SW Florida. Shops, and restaurants all within easy reach and has good connections for places farther afield like the Outlet Malls or Disney via the I75 and US 41. I have no hesitation in recommending a stay here. You will not be disappointed."
