We loved this home. It has a terrific floor plan. We had a suite for all our married kids and ourselves. The back porch is wonderful. We LOVED the swimming pool. It was a wonderful home!!! We would love to go back to Running Oak Circle.

We really enjoyed this beautiful home, it was very spacious and gave us a lot of room with our large group! We also enjoyed the outdoor pool area as well as the convenient proximity to Publix!

Beautiful roomy home. Every thing worked as it should. We had the third floor AC unit fail but was fixed the following day. The security feature of the loud tone when the doors to the pool was initially annoying but served its function and we finally adjusted to it.

We are pleased you appreciated the beauty of The Way We Like It, and although the situation with the air conditioning wasn't ideal, you were glad that the 360 Blue team fixed it quickly. Thank you for being our guest; we hope to welcome you back to WaterColor soon!

Wonderful house! So clean, well-kept, spacious. The backyard is amazing with pool and lots of privacy from neighbors and the serene pond beyond the backyard. So many houses in the area don't have this special green space, and in those, you feel closed in. Not at this home! Homeowners provided best kitchen supplies in comparison to other homes we've rented. Thank you for the crockpot (a beach vacation NECESSITY) and sharp knives. We did have an issue with a toilet in the powder room on first floor that was out of commission for DAYS .....waiting to hear from 360 how they plan to compensate us, as that's what was promised, and I know they will make it right!

Thank you for sharing your experience at The Way We Like It. We are delighted that both the interior and exterior living spaces of this home truly made it perfect for your WaterColor getaway. We are also pleased that despite the issue with the powder room, our team was able to fairly compensate you for the troubles, and we look forward to welcoming you back again soon. Thank you for being our guest!
