Wonderful, Eclectic Place To Stay

This was a fantastic place to stay! We really enjoyed the shared yard space, interaction there with fellow travelers and conversation with the host. Read the property description carefully - it is accurate. If you aren't fond of being in a camper or having shared social space (outdoor) with other guests then this may not be for you. But if you are then you will love it here. The host has created a magical yard space that is very focused on guest activities. He pays more attention to the guests' experience than any host we've encountered so far. We definitely hope to return here on our future trips to St. Pete!

Camper was cute and just what you would expect- did not have heat until 1230am due to the propane tanks were both empty and after a few messages about that issue it was fixed Hot tub needed to be cleaned you could smell the algae outdoor cooking area is cute and stocked great idea to have an onsite vending/snacks multiple rentals on site and in close proximity

I feel like I was Cat Fished!!!

We didn’t even stay the night. It’s in a bad part of town. We did not feel safe. The place looks nothing like the pictures posted. Very Run down and dirty!! Do not book! I feel like all the reviews must be fake. I don’t know how anyone would stay here. I don’t write reviews but felt this place is false advertising!! I want my back!

Couldn’t stay here

We ended up just leaving and paying for a hotel downtown. First rental I couldn’t actually sleep in. The camper was not well maintained, which wouldn’t have bothered us that much because it is a camper, but the environment was really dirty. It made us wonder if the sheets on the bed were actually changed between guests. The “oasis” backyard had a gate code to get in but the fence by the camper wasn’t even connected so we also didn’t feel safe sleeping there. I wanted to like this for a quick one night stay in St Pete but it was horrible. We didn’t even contact the property owner because it wasn’t worth the argument. I should have listened to prior reviews.

Fun and quirky!

My husband and I always wondered what it'd be like to stay in a small trailer and finally got the chance! This place was decked out to the max with fantastic amenities both inside and out. Mitchell, the host, was very accommodating and attentive. Perhaps the only downside would be the neighborhood, though that's in no way the host's fault and it did not take away from our enjoyment of the stay. The Gardens has been moving up and improving over the last few years, and our friends who grew up in St. Pete at first were surprised we were staying there but then came back and said these days it's much better. We had absolutely no trouble with anybody, and in fact all of the young neighborhood kids we ran into were incredibly polite and sweet; the adults kept to themselves, as did we :-) The trailer itself is exactly as listed-- retro and cool! The exterior that Mitchell has been building up around with the deck and small pool was also a great perk. We enjoyed the evenings outside with the lit-up palm tree, and the mornings watching a red-bellied woodpecker fixing up her home in a nearby tree as we drank coffee and relaxed. We were close to everything we needed to get to during our stay, and both checking in and out were a breeze. If you've ever been curious about "van life" or "RV life" then this place is a great one to test it out-- perhaps a little TOO good! :-D

Don’t normally leave reviews but this needs to be out there

Rented both places, luckily because we couldn’t even use the shower in the camper. The floor was caving in from water damage from shower & the door for shower would not shut so we had to use the outdoor shower. Told owner & he said shower door was in a test run because shower curtain wasn’t a good option but never did anything so we could use the shower in camper. Camper smells like mildew, bad. In the tiny home, the heater was leaking a lot and got all over my sisters stuff and soaked her pillows. Tried to use the toaster in camper and smelled like it was on fire. Had one trash bag for the week & one roll of toilet paper provided to us. Owners boyfriend came outside to stretch on the back deck while we were in the hot tub which I thought was strange, yes I know they live there but still. They left their house windows open all week so they could smoke & the whole backyard smelled like weed the whole week while we were there. We left a day early because we were over it. I know it’s a camper & tiny home and not a condo or house but it was a lot more rough than I was expecting, pictures should be updated too.

Good Intentions but Lacking Execution

Since we have stayed in a RV previously, we were more than excited for our stay in St Pete. Before we went down, we saw a more than concerning review from 12/2, which we proactively reached out to the host explaining our concern and expressed how we did not want to be misled. The Host referred us to the other 300 reviews he had and stated the review from 12/2 was a surprise, so we decided to keep the reservation. There were multiple problems once arriving that quickly became evident. Here are a few - We since the shelves were dust covered we had limited storage. The deck outside had definitely bounce and unevenness. The shower was not sealed correctly as a result the base of the shower was extremely soft and seemed to be rotting out underneath which may be why it was damp inside all the time. Also, there wasn't fire extinguisher in case of emergency. We were very fortunate that we had wonderful weather and could explore the nearby city. I would agree that the location was good, however we could not wait to leave and wanted to spend the limited amount of time there. It was damp, dirty, unleveled, and unsupported. Note: we didn’t reach out to the host as these are things that need to be a part of the upkeep of the location. These are all larger problems that need some major maintenance to resolve correctly, and we knew it would not be able to be fix quickly We agree to the review on 12/2 as this needs to be out there so other guest can get a full understanding.

DIRTY PROPERTY - RUDE HOST!

Arrived @ 3:00.Neighborhood wasnt safe in daylight.Broken glass in street where we had to park.People openly doing drugs across the street.Host was on property.He was unaware it had been rented.He informed that camper hadnt been cleaned & wed have to wait for him to clean.Inside, ants & gnats all over, urine stains on bathroom walls, pink stuff growing on shower, a stinky smell & it was hot.Didnt feel/look clean.When we tried to leave, handle to the door wouldnt open.After attempting to get out for 10 mins, we were able to reach the host by phone & exit @ 4:40.As 2 females traveling alone feeling locked in was terrifying.We didnt feel safe & decided we wouldnt return to the property.We had to find somewhere else to stay.Later I messaged the host w/ my concerns & requested refund.Received no reply.Next day, reached out to customer service.They reached host & he said hed “be willing to work w/ me if I provide photo evidence”.Stated I needed to cancel my reservation to receive refund.My confirm. started the last day to cancel for refund was 2/11 & stay was on 2/25-which wouldve made ineligible for a refund if I canceled.The experience was awful!!! I guess next time Im locked in a hot dirty camper, I should set my camera up & hit record before I attempt to get out.When the host finally replied to me, he was rude.I was at property for 2 hrs.He said I should’ve crawled out of the emergency exit window if I was concerned & since the door eventually opened it didnt justify a refund.

Unique and all you need...

The caravan and its surroundings are unique. Perfect for one or two travellers. Lots of nice touches like the honesty fridge and outside area. Caravan is compact, so if you are of a larger frame, it could be a little tight! But it's a great base to explore StPete. $10 uber gets you to the Pier and downtown. Mitch great with advice on where to go for drinks and music. While the surrounding neighbourhood is not salubrious, it is quiet and you'll probably head straight to StPete anyway.

The concept of this property was good but our actual stay no. Left two days early. Photos don’t represent the place & the location definitely not for everyone. Poor parking & too much noise. Didn’t feel safe. Had to go to a hotel. This is a definite NO.

Paradise never fails!!

Last year, my wife and I stayed in the tiny house on this same property. We loved it so much that we went back this year, and stayed in the retro camper. It was adorable!!! The property owner has made several upgrades to the property since last year, and he's got a pretty neat little system going. There were some issues when checking in but we called the owner, and he came within 20 minutes to address the problem. He is always very respectful, and very quick to help with anything you need while there!! Honestly, we will be back again! We love this little paradise so much!!!

Nice Oasis in South St. Pete

I was looking for a place in this neighborhood because of its proximity to where I would be meeting with some people. Riding down the street was nothing special, but when I found the place, entered the code on the gate, the backyard and accommodations in the RV were great and relaxing. Nice gem in the southern part of St. Pete!
