Photos and Description of the Lake Worth vacation house rental
3 bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms, sleeps 6-8

Spacious, cozy Victorian pool home in historic Eden Place neighborhood of Florida's undiscovered seaside gem, Lake Worth - an easy 10 block walk from restaurants, night life, live music, outdoor concerts, live theater, movies, art shows, sidewalk cafes, antique stores & boutiques.

This funky/fun Lake Worth-West Palm Beach vacation rental is unlike any other. There is a secret room under the stairs with scary objects, an oriental carpet painted on the parlor floor, faux paintings on the walls & ceilings, ornate chandeliers (even in the bathroom), a secret door to the upstairs bathroom and period furnishings throughout.

Unusual is the word: An oriental carpet painted on the parlor floor is just one of the unusual features of this Lake Worth - West Palm Beach vacation rental home. The door in a closet that leads to the computer room is another unusual feature, along with faux painted ceilings and walls and elegant chandeliers throughout the house. There is a hidden, scary closet but it's your challenge to find it!

Wireless Internet, Cable TV: This historic Lake Worth - West Palm Beach vacation rental home has all the modern conveniences including fast, wireless cable internet, cable phone service and cable tv in 3 rooms.

Luxurious Bedding: All beds in this Lake Worth - West Palm Beach Vacation Rental home have tempurpedic mattress toppers and luxurious tencel sheets - you won't believe how soft they are.

About Carol Lewis

My husband Scott and I have owned & managed a landscape company in Palm Beach County for 35 years. Our volunteer work involves helping disaster survivors after catastrophic events. In 1999 we formed a non-profit organization called The Eagles Wings Foundation which does this work around the world. Our children are grown now & launching their own careers. We are animal lovers & welcome your 4-legged family members (no giraffes please).

Carol Lewis purchased this house in 2009
Why Carol Lewis chose Lake Worth

I LOVE Lake Worth but my home is in nearby West Palm Beach where Scott & I maintain a plant nursery on our homesite. Lake Worth is my go-to place whenever I have free time. I feel like I'm on vacation when I meet up with friends at Lake Worth's sidewalk cafes or theaters. I love that dogs are welcome at the sidewalk restaurants.

What makes this house unique

As a part-time realtor, I see a lot of houses, but when I walked into Eden House I knew I had found something special. A former owner was an agoraphobic artist who stayed home & painted the floors, walls & ceilings with fabulous faux paintings. He also was a great interior decorator and most of the antique furnishings came with the house, which is magical. You feel like you're stepping back into a quieter time as soon as you go through the picket fence gate and enter the secluded front courtyard.

Even better than we expected

5 of 5
Submitted: March 28, 2013 Stayed: March 2013
This was perfect place to relax and unwind after our week long cruise.The house has all the amenity's you could want and then some. I think that it's definitely set our expectations way to high for any other vacation home we may rent.There were six of us (three couples) and plenty of space to do our own thing, every thing in the house worked as described from every appliance to the fountain and pool light. If your looking for vacation in the Lake Worth area this is the place to be and we will be back. And Carol thanks again for a perfect stay

Uniquely Charming with Charater

5 of 5
Submitted: September 3, 2012 Stayed: August 2012
My Family and I had the pleasure of staying at the Eden House for 8 days. When we arrived, we were impressed with the picturesque front garden with the fountain. As we entered the home, we felt the warmth and charming character of each of the rooms. Exploring the house, we found the layout to be unique and each room beautifully decorated. From the cozy kitchen, to the spacious living room, to the Master Bedroom with on-suite bathroom, we thought the Carol took special care in making sure the house was clean, comfortable and equipped with the amenities. We enjoyed swimming in the pool, barbequing in the back patio, lounging in the living room watching movies and sitting outside on the upstairs balcony. Carol made sure we were provided with information about the home, activities in the area and additional contacts.
Thank you for making Eden House inviting and we felt right at home.

A Little Slice of Heaven

5 of 5
Submitted: August 6, 2012 Stayed: July 2012
Our family gathered in Lake Worth to carry out our matriarch's wishes for her farewell. Although the occasion was somber, the charm of Eden House was a counter balance. Only five of the twelve of us stayed in the house, but it was a perfect gathering place for winding down after days at the beach and lunches out, more than one visit to Hoffman's Chocolates (watch through the glass to see the kitchen and the chocolates being made) on Lake Worth Road, and driving around to see sights that held memories from my parents' retirement in Lake Clarke Shores. ** The thoughtful touches and preparations that Carol had in place were very much appreciated. Among them was a crib set up for the six-month-old baby in our midst -- the first of the next generation. Everything we needed and more was provided. All was scrupulously clean, and a very helpful loose-leaf binder was left that covered everything we needed to know. The photos in the listing do not do the house, its setting, or the location justice. Carol was unfailingly helpful and patient about the couple of questions we had. ** As for restaurants, my sons and I fondly remembered Four Brothers at Florida Mango and 10th Avenue North. Even the Chicago contingent said it was the best pizza ever. We had a great time eating pizza at the house while watching the Olympics. ** I think I can speak for all of us when I say that it was a memorable time, and Eden House and it's owner were a major part of making it a special experience. Thank you.

Perfect Little Hideaway!

Submitted: July 23, 2012 Stayed: July 2012
We truly enjoyed our stay! At this house everything is provided from the obvious (laundry detergent) to the unexpected (potato peeler). My 5 year old daughter loved the 'princess room' above the kitchen. The house was well kept and spotless. It is surround by beautiful gardens and is perfectly secluded. We loved it here!!!
