About this property
Come & get Away from it all!
Take it easy at this unique and tranquil getaway. This space is located on a private 150 spring-fed lake in the Ocala National Forest. Whether you paddleboard, kayak, bike, run, paint, bird watch, write, choose your pleasure, and enjoy this lakefront property. Close to Silver Springs, Juniper Springs, and Alexander Springs. 45 minutes from Daytona Beach. Grocery stores and drug stores within 3 minutes. Pet friendly.
The space
This property is an acre and fully fenced. The area you will enjoy is c. 750 square feet that is open concept and completely private - with your own entrance.
Guest access
The neighborhood is a small private lake community - with no public access. You are right off State Road 40 in the Ocala National Forest so there are lots to do, but you will need a car. There is a restaurant and convenience store within walking distance. A Winn-Dixie and CVS are about three miles up the road.
Other things to note
If you are interested in a yoga session or retreat, please reach out to me - as I mentioned I am a certified yoga instructor and would happily practice with my guest. Please reach out to me for costs. I also have a few traveling massage therapists lined up, in case you would like that. I want my guests to relax, renew, and destress! I'm excited that I get to share this amazing property with you.

About the host
Hosted by Therese Schultz Nourse
I am an educator. A dog Mom. A Yogi. A Catholic. Vaccinated. A hot mess!
Why they chose this property
My parents built this home in 1988. When I graduated from college this space was actually my “apartment”. In 2001 my husband and I bought the house from my parents. Sadly, these three people died within five years of each other. As a way to pay tribute to the people who meant the most to me, and have the opportunity to maintain this home, the way it needs to be, I decided to become a host. There are many items in this space that speak of my Mom, Dad, my husband, and the love we all shared - and I want to share that with you!
What makes this property unique
This is such an amazing area with so much to do - whether you want to go and enjoy all the outdoor activities in the area, go to a Gator football game, head to the beach, or just chillax and enjoy this little peace of heaven (pun intended).
