Located 12.7 miles from the World Equestrian Center, the home sits on just over a half acre on a quiet cul-de-sac. The home is equipped with keyless entry for easy check-in and fully stocked with all amenities needed for a relaxing short- or long-term stay to include; TVs in all rooms, full size washer/dryer, and a fully stocked kitchen for cooking meals. The split plan offers two large bedrooms, each with a private bath. Both bedrooms have Roku TVs and a King size bed, with the master bedroom featuring an adjustable King size bed. The living room features a 65" Roku TV and two full size sofas with one being a (pullout) sleeper to accommodate two guests. The dining room table seats six.

Our (horse farm) neighbors access their property from a private drive off the dead end cul-d-sac. Please do not proceed beyond the cul-d-sac pavement (on the dirt drive) as you would then enter private property not owned by us.

About the host

Host profile image
While my husband and I are native Floridians, we have also lived abroad for several years. We returned to the United States in 2015 and opened our first vacation rental in 2022. My husband is retired law enforcement, serving his community for 20+ years and I am retired from our local school system. We thoroughly enjoy spending time with our grandchildren.

Why they chose this property

The Horseman's Retreat is located in an established, quiet neighborhood.

What makes this property unique

The split plan home sits on just over a half an acre on a dead end cul-d-sac. This provides plenty of room for parking and to maneuver a trailer. However, careful not to block the horse farm neighbor's entrance to their property, which is located off the cul-d-sac. Once the pavement ends, the neighbor's property begins.
