Not knowing the area, can anyone recommend a good rental site or neighborhoods to stay away from? Thank you!

The place had everything including a Florida Room with a pool and hot tub, six bedrooms, beautifully furnished, play room with a pool table and air hockey table. In short it was not only terrific, but, inexpensive by comparison. I highly recommend them.

Pool with hottub, gameroom in the garage, kitchen, etc. I think they paid $1400 for the week and they have no doubt they made a good choice.
