Inverness, FL Rents: What about a Golf Resort!

If the one thing you can learn from reading my lodging recommendations is: (whenever possible) stay in a vacation rental. They have many benefits and if you are traveling with kids, in my opinion, it’s the best option, and I’m going to show you why. On one of my many trips to Florida, we stayed at the Inverness vacation rental, and here’s my full experience and review.

Sure, hotels are fun. They have their purpose:

• If you go for the resort experience
• If there aren’t any vacation rentals in the area

When traveling with kids, vacation rentals will literally save your trip.

Hotels are usually one room unless you get connecting rooms. But you still lack the living and hanging out space that makes all the difference. And once in a while, it can be fun to have a meal at home without getting all decked out and leaving the comfort of sofas and TV.

Golf Resorts are Great Options

While visiting Florida’s Nature Coast there are a lot of downtimes. The majority of activities are only half a day, so being cooped up in a one-room hotel will drive anyone mad. Especially when you have two (extremely) energetic boys.

Inverness, Florida came on my radar because it was close to all the major activities we wanted to do in these areas:

• Swim with Manatee
• Weeki Wachee
• Homosassa State Park

Doing a thorough search I found Van der Valk Golf Resort Inverness. They offer all sorts of vacation villas and condominiums that would work for all size families and parties. Plus, with the price of the house or condo, you get a ton of amenities including the use of nine golf courses (which is totally unheard of).

What I mainly wanted was to have a living room, dining room, and a private pool. We would have almost two full days of downtime while staying here, and I really wanted to have plenty of activities for my kids to do while we chilled out.

When we finally pulled up to our four-bedroom house at The Inverness Golf Resort, it reminded me of the neighborhood I grew up in. Making me feel totally at home instantly.

Tour of Our Vacation Rental 

This was by far the most spacious vacation rental we have ever had. Normally we stay in two-bedroom houses or villas. But to have a private pool, we went completely all out and had a four-bedroom house. And I loved it.

The Kitchen – a rare photo of me cooking, but that’s how domestic I felt being there.

Living Room and TV – We spent way too much time lounging out here

With a private pool, you also get a huge outdoor, enclosed patio

Now the Bedrooms. We had four, so it was a big deal for my oldest to pick the one he wanted to sleep in.

The Flower Room – I don’t think so!

The Master Bedroom – this wasn’t an option. I definitely deserved the best room, which had a huge bathroom and walk-in closet which was big enough for a bed of its own.

We finally went with the cozy ‘Red’ room (one of my son’s favorite colors).

When we arrived, we had a welcome package waiting for us. Normally everyone who arrives gets this package if they are staying seven days or more for free, we received it too. You can ask for anything in advance to be waiting for you when you arrive, so you don’t have to worry about necessities when you arrive.

There was also more in the fridge.

And of course, the not-so-sexy but oh-so crucial part of the house – the laundry and drier machines!

Amenities that You Receive Staying in Inverness Vacation Rentals

1. Golf courses galore. When you rent a house or condo, you literally get access to NINE different, world-class golf courses and entrances to their country clubs. No one offers such a deal. We may not be golfers, but we love staying at Golf Resorts because they usually have gorgeous properties, wildlife, and open spaces. And everywhere they charge an arm and a leg, even if you stay with them, for the use of the courses.

2. Country Club entrances (if you don’t play golf) where you can swim indoors or outdoors in Olympic size pools. And also spas and gyms.

3. Free canoe rentals

4. Views that are true serenity

5. Access to a farm right on the property. Plus, equestrian lessons or horse tours.
