Every thing you could think of was at hand & organized to perfection! Every inch of the interior was spotless & Beautifully appointed!" - Deb, December 2023 Enjoy your morning coffee with the butterflies in the lush brick-paved backyard garden. Play yard games in the private fenced-in backyard before cooling off in the saltwater pool. Head over to one of Tampa’s coolest bars, Lowry Parcade, with throwback arcade games, craft beer, live music, and food trucks, just a couple blocks from the house. The Bungalow House is a 1500-sq-ft home built in 1943 that we renovated ourselves in 2021. A little 'mid-century modern' and a little 'classic cottage,' the Bungalow House is full of original artwork and handmade touches. Amenities include 2 private desk spaces (note: one desk doubles as a Murphy bed – the 3rd queen bed), lightning-fast internet, and a 65” TV with Roku. Prepare meals in the fully stocked kitchen or outside on the charcoal grill. Gather around the handmade cherry dining table, or outside in the screened-in porch to enjoy dinner under the glowing string lights. End the night with s’mores over the fire pit! The Garden House is a 625-sq-ft detached guest house that we fully renovated in 2023. It has boho vibes and your very own secret garden viewable from the huge glass doors in the living space and bedroom. Enjoy a meal cooked in the stunning modern kitchen at the spacious quartzite island. Amenities include a King bed, walk-in glass-door shower, 50" TV with Roku, and books and toys for the whole family! The leather sectional also has a double sleeper sofa (recommended for kids as it's thinner and shorter than a standard full mattress). Both houses are full of living potted plants, a rare treat amongst Airbnb properties! Renovated, designed, and hosted by the home owners (Mike and Jess), booking your stay at Tuckaway Grove promises top-notch guest service and a uniquely Tampa experience. We aim to be a positive space for our local and global community, recommending local small businesses to our guests and using earth-friendly, sustainable practices in our home design and maintenance.
