Bring the kids, visit the beautiful Florida Springs, and enjoy staying in a peaceful, cozy farm bunkhouse. Have a rest on the front porch rocking chairs or enjoy connecting with farm way of life while relaxing in the barn themed living room. This renovated goat barn boasts of exposed beams, tin ceilings and chic farm decor. While staying with us you can enjoy visiting with the animals, maybe meet our 2 newest babies and gather some fresh eggs for your breakfast! We are located at a very central area to many parks and springs. We’re also located about 40 minutes from the University of Florida, so come for a game, but stay out of the hustle and bustle of Gainesville. We are located approximately 10 minutes off Interstate 75 and less than 10 minutes from the All-Tech Racetrack so if you are just passing through we are a good 2 night option for weary travelers or a race fan who wants a little distance from the hustle and bustle of the crowd. Couples needing a weekend getaway have enjoyed the comfy cabin feel and the local “rural Florida” exploration.

The bunkhouse was very cozy. There was a cute farm kitty that came and greeted us every morning, we fed the supplied treats and catnip.We loved that the kitchen was supplied with items(thermal lunch bag, iceboxes, to go coffee mugs, and refillable water bottles) we were able to use on our outings to the springs.
Great secluded country setting. Plenty of room and very comfortable for 4 adults.Was perfect for our needs.Host was very gracious and accommodating!Note that the driveway is not paved and farm animals are nearby.Expect we will return for future stays as it is very handy for visiting several state parks.
This wholesome ranch over exceeded our expectations! In addition to exceptional cleanliness and a fully equipped home (for 6), the grounds offer a different perspective on living - compared to our city life. Watching the animals during our morning coffee and throughout our stay was mesmerizing! Janie and her family went above and beyond to make our stay memorable. It is definitely a home that will stay imbedded in our core memories forever.
We loved our time spent here, the house was clean and the farm was beautiful. The owner came and welcomed us the morning after we arrived and brought us fresh eggs for breakfast. The house is stocked with anything you need and is 20ish minutes from the springs.
Peaceful and beautiful. My daughter and I loved our stay here. We wish we had more time there as we were gone almost all day with softball. If we com back to the area we will definitely stay again.
We had a great stay at the adorable country bunkhouse! It was spotless, had everything we needed to cook in the kitchen and the owners were very responsive to messages.
Very comfortable and charming! We had a great stay and had every we needed. The location is serene and the horses were beautiful. I hope we can stay again.
The Bunkhouse is absolutely wonderful to stay in. This was our fourth visit here, we love it! It's so clean and they provide everything that you can imagine for your cooking needs. It's also very quiet there and quite peaceful. We look forward to our next stay there!
We loved staying here. Super cute and clean accommodations. Kids did horseback riding lessons and we also went tubing in itchetucknee. Will stay again.
Stayed for a long weekend with my son for the NHRA in Gainesville. We’re FL locals but this was a great change of pace from the city. Not far from I75 to get you to and from places but far enough away at the same time. The Bunk House is by itself away from the main houses on the property so it was very private. It’s an old converted place but upon entering, you get the whole vibe in a VERY clean and well decorated quaint place. Smells nice, and the character was charming. Don’t hesitate to book this. Very reasonable too.
