Mattresses need to be replaced and the main walk in shower needs to be addressed. Pool area and the rest of the house is fabulous. Nice quiet neighborhood and close to downtown and shopping areas.

Great stay! Pool water was too cold to swim however, was enjoyable to lay in the sun. Also. There wasn’t any coffee pods when we arrived but, we did leave some for the next guests. Overall, was a great stay and would recommend it to others.

Wonderful get-a-way

The house had everything and more of what we were looking for with renting a house. With two teenagers they enjoyed the pool and having their own room.

Excellent stay in Ocala

We had an amazing stay at this property! The location couldn't be better—just a short drive to Silver Springs and surrounded by beautiful outdoor activities. The house was clean, well-equipped, and very comfortable for our family. We loved the spacious front patio and the lovely pool for evening relaxation. Truly recommend this gem when visiting Ocala.

This is a lovely clean home. The pool was beautiful, but the furniture and deck needed cleaning. The outdoor areas are so pretty but the landscaping needs attention. It's a great home for a family with pool toys, games and books. Loved the fenced yard for our 2 dogs! I did reach out to the host to ask what needed to done before we left because I quite couldn't remember but didn't get a reply. I hope I covered all we were supposed to do.

Very clean with an amazing enclosed pool area and outdoor seating without bugs! Walked in the evening around the neighborhood, shopped down the road at convenient stores.

Clean, comfortable and fun

My stay was perfect! Super clean, the house was very organized and easy to access cookware and dishes. Even had little shampoos, and washclothes were made into cute little shells. Had a nice little gate outside for added sense of security! Perfect for my family!

Beautiful Ocala home

We enjoyed our stay at the Ocala Retreat home. The house was easy to access and in a beautiful tree-line area of Ocala. Pool was clean and warm and screened-in patio area was especially enjoyable. We will definitely stay again when in the Ocala area. Recommend bringing your own toiletries, hair dryer, trash bags, dishwashing pods, laundry pods as these items are not provided. Otherwise, kitchen items were stocked and there were plenty of towels in both bathrooms.

Amazing!’

One of my best vacation experiences EVER! The only thing I had happen taht I would consider not perfection was the hot water in the master bath takes a while to get hot. Literally everything was picture perfect!! Clean heart pool close to everything but not noisy safe location!! I WILL stay on this one again!

The property is conveniently located by Publix. There is also a large selection of nearby food options. The rooms were all a good size. The multiple living areas is perfect for families with different interests. House was super clean. It would have been nice to have some extra blankets for tv time. Only thing I would change is the grill. Slightly disappointed it was a charcoal grill versus a gas grill.

Ocala Wedding

When we checked in the dirty towels and linens were in a pile on the floor and the beds were unmade. We called the property manager and she was very apologetic - apparently the cleaning service had not come yet which she said never happens. We went out for dinner and everything was very clean when we got back.The house and pool were wonderful.
