Family Retreat with Pool, Games, Dock, Fishing, Golf by RedAwning

Tanglewood is a relaxing vacation spot for outdoors fun and adventure--offering fishing, kayaking, swimming, bird-watching, fire pit, and yard games.   This 4BR, 3BA home sits on the bank of Phillipi Creek.  The home sleeps 10.  The dock is great for fishing-or launching the 2 kayaks that come with this rental.  Amenities include a 36-foot saltwater pool and an outdoor kitchen under a covered terrace.  In the large yard, enjoy a tournament-sized horseshoe pit and bocce court, as well as a 3-hole putting green.  The covered patio offers wonderful outdoor dining throughout the day.  With evening lighting the patio makes for lovely outdoor dinners.  6 Adirondack chairs surround the fire pit for fun marshmallow evenings.  


This home is situated within the Forest Lakes Community of South Gate--a unique community of 60's style houses--many that are preserved as designed.  This community was built around the Forest Hills Golf Course, an 18-hole course, with it's entrance on Beneva Road, just north of Webber.  You can walk to the first hole, from the house, as well.  This relaxed golf course has cheap rounds and very little water--so it's wonderful fun for the whole family. 


This home has two separate office workstations & printer for "work-from-home" family vacations.  Enjoy a fully equipped, stainless steel island-kitchen with granite countertops, dishwasher, microwave, coffee maker, coffee grinder, toaster, waffle maker, food processor, blender, teapot, vegetable steamer, wok, slow cooker--with Le Creuset and All-Clad pots. Full table service for 20 plus 2 booster seats for toddlers, so there's room for-all.  


There's plenty of room to spread out, with 3 outdoor conversation pits, and two outdoor 6-person dining tables.  So, leave the jigsaw puzzles out!   The house is well-stocked for beach fun, with boogie board, umbrella, chairs, toys, bags, and beach buggy.  


With beaches like Lido & Siesta Key close-by, golfing, sailing, charter fishing, Legacy Bike Trail, shops, theater, opera, ballet, and restaurants--all ideally located within 2 miles, there is something for everyone in your family to enjoy!


Please note that by booking this reservation, renter agrees to release owner of any liability from injury or misfortune affecting any member of the rental party, when crossing the fence to access and use the dock, or from use of the kayaks--on premise, or off.  Renter is responsible for up to $750.00 for loss of, or significant damage to, the kayaks/paddles.  Pool cameras are required by owner's insurance carrier--tampering with them will initiate an additional $750.00 charge.   Also note that weekly pool service is Wednesday-Thursday.

Kids had a ball in the pool. We enjoyed sitting on the Adirondack chairs and witnessing nature. There was puzzles and games played, food to eat and memories of fun. We experienced a couple of power failures but the host made it right. As our oldest son said, “this is awesome dad.

Family visit at Tanglewood
This is lovely location with beautiful landscaping on Phillippi Creek. The backyard cooking/eating area is great. Kayaks and the newly rebuilt kayak dock was a highlight. We also used the Bocce and Horseshoe facilities. It was nice to have lots of towels available. The location is close to shopping, beaches, and area attractions. We were unable to use the pool for two days due to a necessary repair that was done while we were there. Since that repair is now complete, it shouldn't be an issue for future renters. We also identified some easily corrected issues that we brought to the attention of the property manager that we are confident will be addressed for the benefit of future renters.

Kid friendly, lots of space, great location
The outdoor area is fantastic. We used every part of it. The kitchen has everything you need for making meals for your family. The beds are comfortable and kids love the bunk bed. Wifi was a bit spotty at times and we could have used a basic sweeper but couldn't find any.

A fantastic layout with great potential but untidy outdoor yard/pool & kitchen
My family and I arrived to find a jungly backyard with foot-tall sand spurs (which the neighbor later also told us he had reported), excessive yard waste in the pool (leaves are fine and easy to skim off, but several branches and gobs of hair had sunk to the bottom; my husband fixed the extension of the net pole to scoop the bottom off ourselves so we could swim), and sticky kitchen counters, table, and freezer spaces which my family cleaned as soon as we arrived. My husband spent an hour-ish cleaning the grill because he was concerned about excessive grease in the drip pans catching fire. I’m not sure how the dirtiness in any of these areas passed cleaning professionals’ measures of being ready for guests. Fortunately, the house manager was responsive the first night and assisted with cleaning and explained that yard maintenance would take place later, which did on day 4, and when they arrived they did a satisfactory job so we could enjoy the outdoor space The kitchen was well-supplied, but one night we struggled with maintaining heat on the cooktop and oven so had to finish dinner on the grill. Refrigerator issues also meant that my husband had to reset the ice dispenser daily to get ice which my family uses daily, especially on these humid <90* days in Florida. In addition, a refrigerator leak meant we found our produce sitting in standing water the first morning so we had to plug it with a towel for our stay. We did enjoy an awesome library of books and the tv viewing seating was ok, but we found the absence of side tables awkward. Bedrooms were spacious with many floor lamps but again no bedside tables here either. We did enjoy the kayaks and accessing the greater Sarasota area and Gulf coast beaches.

Good property, excellent location
The property was as advertised. Great location close to beach, restaurants, shops. Well stocked kitchen. Could use a bigger coffee maker. House was comfortable for a family of 5 and provided everything we needed for the week. Dock and yard are beautiful and very relaxing.

Overall a good home for what we needed
House was great size for what we needed. Dishwasher wasn't working, but owner did let us know that it broke and they didn't have time to replace before our visit. Just a couple of notations is that we were looking for a 3 bedroom 3 bath home which this house had but the third bathroom was outside of the home by the pool. This was a bit disappointing. Also the coffee pot was very small for a home that was designed for a large group. We had to make 4/5 pots everyday for the 6 people staying at the house. Lastly the toaster didn't work so we ended up buying one and leaving in the house.
