Thank you for taking the time to get to know a bit about me and my family! We are a family of 4 from the Midwest. When we decided to venture into hosting, we decided to start small and local, in our home city of Fort Wayne. We love hosting and meeting guests so much that we expanded to Bradenton. Our love of beach and tennis brought us this "second home city". The laid-back atmosphere makes it a great place for our family to get some needed R&R, away from work and school. We are a tennis family and IMG offers great camps during the holidays, spring break, and all summer long. We love to lounge on the hammock and float in the pool after a day of fun at the beach or sweating it out on the tennis court. Recently, our love for Notre Dame lead us to invest in a property in South Bend, where we hope to have the opportunity to host ND families from all over the world. We take pride in taking great care of our properties and set high standards for ourselves and our team members. Our #1 goal is that our guests have a relaxing, stress-free stay and enjoy our homes to the fullest!
