We always appreciate the nice comments and feedback, and it's a pleasure to have hosted. It is convenient here for local activities - Silver Springs glass-bottom boats, World Equestrian Center, Don Garlits Racing Museum/Antique Auto Museum and other local springs recreation areas for kayaking and other fun things. And about an hour one direction or the other is Daytona Beach, St. Augustine and Crystal River. We hope they enjoyed it enough to come back again and again.

Thanks for the kind words - we do try to be a pleasant destination. We appreciate the word "hospitable" because we like to prepare a place and be the kind of host that we would appreciate if we were traveling. Hopefully you do come see us again sometime.
