Spacious 3/2 on large canal to beautiful Crooked Lake, great for seasonal rental

This spacious brick home is located on a quiet neighborhood street. The back yard faces a wide canal that leads to one of the cleanest and most beautiful lakes in Central Florida, Crooked Lake. This home was purchased in the last year, and we are striving to create a clean, fresh, relaxing place for our guests to stay. (We also have two other homes on VRBO, #2128618 Crooked Lake Gem, it is located in the same neighborhood and Lake Reedy Living, #3196099 on Lake Reedy in nearby Frostproof.)
The house has three living areas each with comfortable power reclining leather seating. The large galley kitchen is adjacent to the dining area and family room. It has all of the large appliances one would expect. The full-sized washer and dryer are located in the house at the far end of the kitchen.
The three bedrooms and both bathrooms have been freshly painted and are outfitted with the furniture you need for a comfortable stay. The master bedroom has a queen bed, the corner bedroom has a king Serta Black Beautyrest mattress, and the front bedroom has a queen bed. Each room has new bedding.
The house also has a double garage and carport for parking in the shade, or plenty of room for a boat trailer. The BEST part of the house, in our opinion, is the waterfront location leading to the lake.
Crooked Lake is listed as one of Florida’s Outstanding waters and is a large lake, over 4,000+ acres. It is a favorite fishing destination for local and traveling fisherman. The perimeters of vegetation and brush around this lake make excellent cover and habitat for largemouth bass. Bring your boat and fishing gear to discover why Florida has been described as the “Bass Capital of the World”. Other freshwater game fish to try for are specs, bluegills, shell crackers and catfish. Many fishermen enjoy a peaceful evening of night fishing for specs! Other lakes in the general area are Lake Kissimmee, Lake Walk-in-the-Water, Lake Clinch and Lake Reedy.
In addition to fishing, Crooked lake is known as a great lake for swimming, water skiing, kayaking, paddle boarding.... just about anything to do with water. It is just a great lake! There are two boat ramps on the lake, one public (on Little Crooked Lake) with no charge and one private (Bob's Landing), with a small charge (take cash). Bring your boat and you can park it right behind the house when you aren't out fishing, boating or swimming!
For those that love theme parks, the Orlando theme parks are only an hour away.... Walt Disney World, Epcot, MGM studios, Animal Kingdom, Universal Studios, and SeaWorld. Legoland in Winter Haven is a twenty-minute drive. And Busch Gardens in Tampa is 1hr 15min away. Nearby cities are Lake Wales, Winter Haven, Lakeland, Auburndale, Haines City, Frostproof and Bartow. For a dip in the salt water, this home is in the center of the state, a short trip to either of Florida's coasts...the Gulf of Mexico and the Atlantic Ocean.
Our area also boasts natural trails for hiking and beautiful Bok Tower Gardens. Two trails worth noting are the Crooked Lake Prairie and the Circle Bar B Ranch in Lakeland.
Some favorite local restaurants are Crazy Fish (casual seafood), Melanie's Seafood Kitchen (downtown Lake Wales), The Crooked Bass Grill and Tavern, Frostbite (cute diner with hand dipped ice cream), and L'Incantro Italian restaurant. The Ranch – Brew and Tap Room has just recently opened downtown and everyone loves it. It has pastries and such at breakfast time, a small lunch menu with home made items like chicken salad, and appetizers at dinner time. We’ve only been to lunch, but everyone loved it.

In for tournament at local club. House was clean, spacious and comfortable in a safe neighborhood. Close to town so food and essentials were close. Loved the Bok Tower and grounds. Owner had listings of local attractions, guidelines. Highly recommend this house if you are in the area.

The cranes were cool.
Nice comfortable house with lots of room. A fenced pen in the backyard for the dog. Nice neighborhood to walk around. Not much to do in Lake Wales though. Our friends took us to the "fish camp" Cherry Pocket restaurant. A ways out, but worth the trip. The vet at Thompson's Veterinary Center was great. We needed a health certificate to take the dog on a flight. Very caring and concerned.

Exceptionally Perfect!
This home was way beyond what's expected of a 3 bedroom 2 bath home! Beautiful, just beautiful! The reclining sectionals are comfortable and large enough to sleep like a king/ queen! The hosts! OMG! The host are absolutely wonderful! They went beyond the call of duty to make sure we were safe and felt at home! If I ever come to or near Lake Wales again, I most definitely will be seeking this home and these hosts again!

Great stay
The house was great. The kids loved the ping pong table being in the house. It was very spacious and in a nice neighborhood. The kitchen had everything we needed and a little more. The hosts were friendly and offered suggestions based on our reasons for visiting the area.

Cleaner than my home....
I could not believe how immaculate this home was! The furnishings are perfect and lots of space for a family or even a couple of families to stay. Every detail from the owners was well thought out. Perfect vacation stay close to Tampa, Orlando, beaches and Legoland. We will definitely stay here again. The owner's communication was beyond any expectation. They even knew we would be late and they left the light on for us. I can not imagine a better experience.

Beautiful home
The house was clean and spacious. My elderly parents loved the openess of the home. The beds are very comfortable. The owner allow us to check in early and gave us good recommendations. It nice to have a little left over salt for us to cook our first dinner there. My other family rented another vrbo in the area and this was the better home.
