We had a wonderful time on our stay. The house was clean and very welcoming. It was convient to the WEC where my daughter showed her horse. We would stay here again.

Thank you so much for the kind review Lydia. We’re very happy to hear you had a wonderful stay and that the home worked well for your visit to WEC. We’d be delighted to host you again anytime. Best of luck to your daughter in her future shows!
The house was exactly what we needed. We used the kitchen a lot. The beds were very comfortable. The linens being provided were a huge benefit. If any suggestions, perhaps adding a small coffee table to hold drinks while watching the television or playing the games, which were also provided!

Cute little house in a new to be developed development. Ample room, nicely decorated, easily communication with owners if needed. Off the beaten path - pretty quiet - within minutes to Ocala and other site seeing places. Towel rod broken in bathroom but would recommend this stay to others.

Our stay was originally just for one night, but the house was so perfect for our group that we decided to extend and enjoy a relaxing evening together. The kitchen is fully stocked with everything you need to cook, and the bathrooms were equipped with toiletries, which was a great touch. Every bedroom had its own TV and extra blankets, making the whole place feel super cozy and comfortable.The host was quick to respond both times I reached out through the app and was incredibly helpful. If we’re ever back in the area, we’d absolutely stay at this property again. Highly recommend!

Thank you so much for the kind words! It was a pleasure hosting you and your group, and we’re so glad the home was a perfect fit for your stay. We really appreciate how thoughtful and respectful you were as guests. You’re welcome back anytime—hope to host you again in the future!
So many thoughtful modern touches throughout the home, like a full size air fryer, Nespresso machine, and all utensils and flatware I would have in my own home. Hector and Laura thought of everything and provided toiletries, home cleaning supplies including laundry detergent. TVs in every room and extra linens were a plus. The hosts were super responsive and cared about our every need and concern. Super host 100%

We decided to check out the local springs in Ocala and it didn't disappoint. The house is brand new and very well taken care of. Hector and Laura are absolutely incredible and made our trip comfortable. I actually enjoyed the dirt roads giving it a camping vibe and being away from any neighbors. It's located 20 minutes from Rainbow springs that has a nice swimming area and trail with waterfalls. Personal kayaks are a mission to bring without a dolly. Renting would be better to save you the trouble of walking a 1/4 mile to get in the water. Silver springs is a 40 minute drive and is definitely a very fun kayak trip. Expect to see Manatees and Gators. Overall I will definitely be returning to Ocala and staying longer.
