Guests are also welcome to enjoy the screened patio with comfy overstuffed rockers. Silver Springs is less than 10 minutes up the road. The World Equestrian Center is 25 minutes away.

If you enjoy wildlife , ask me about the eagles nest across the street. You can usually find them in or around the nest. In Spring, the babies are born each year. Its amazing to watch them grow & take flight.

The hostess was very nice and friendly. The unit was clean, efficient and well stocked with snacks and linens (towels and blankets). The weather was unusually cold and the unit was warm and comfortable.The location was perfect for our plans to tour the state park and ride the glass-bottom boat!

I had a fantastic stay at this cozy efficiency right in the heart of downtown Ocala. The space was spotless, comfortable, and thoughtfully set up with everything needed for a relaxing weekend.The check-in process was smooth, communication with the host was easy, and the atmosphere felt welcoming from the moment I walked in. It was the perfect home base for exploring Ocala without spending a fortune.Highly recommend for solo travelers or a girlfriends’ weekend trip which is what this was for us. I’d happily stay again!

Cozy little place, perfect for one person or a couple. It has everything you need. Located in a quiet neighborhood right across from an elementary school, 15 minutes away from World Equestrian Center. If you are looking for a place to sleep comfortable and the next morning take a shower and get ready to go, this is for you.

I am elderly with low vision which is almost blind. And yes they do let us drive lol. At any rate the place I stayed at was clean and neat as a pin. It was located 30 minutes from where I met up with my family.. I drive using Waze especially if I drive at night which is rare. When I tried going to the home at night Waze malfunctioned and kept telling me I was at the right place even when I wasn't. I contacted VRBO finally and my host and they helped me find my way in. The host even helped park my car. This home was typical of a home built in the 50s. I live in one currently. It felt relaxing and most pleasant. The photos are good ones of how the house actually looks. It has a nice patio for sitting outside. The neighborhood is typical of old Florida and was quiet. Didn't take pictures because I didn't know I could. I would definitely stay with Kari again!!
