Marie and Dick made my two-night stay in Tarpon Springs a joy. Their house is lovely, far enough out to be private and quiet, yet close enough in to be a short drive away to the restaurants and sponge docks of Tarpon Springs. The extensive grounds offer the peaceful shade of live oaks and a porch-type swing to relax in.... More

We have never stayed at a B & B before, and from the moment we walked in we felt as if we had known Dick and Marie forever. The accommodation is a bedroom and bathroom one one side of their home. It is fairly private but does not have a separate entrance. It was so enjoyable, we could have spent... More

Staying with Marie & Dick seemed like staying with family. There house is immaculately clean and very private. They live in one end of the house, and rent out the other bedroom. It only accomodates up to 2 people, with your own private bathroom. For me it was perfect. I drove out to spend a weekend there to enjoy some... More

You just can't get any fresher and healthier... More

They are such welcoming and warm folks that it makes you sorry when the time comes to leave. But we will... More

Our annual visits to Dick and Marie are awesome. Most gracious and accomodating hosts, they always treat us as family. A home like environment nestled a short way from the beaches, offers convenience to all our vacation needs. Marie goes above and beyond in her selections of breakfasts. We look forward to returning to this home away from every year.

From the first greeting to the hug upon my departure, I felt like a old friend, welcomed warmly, and treated like a queen. Cho cho met me at the door and Miss Kitty checked me out royally. This little secret is out !!! Spotlessly clean, bright and cheery my room was all I could want. The bathroom was the same... More
