Hosts checked in to see if we needed anything. Everything very clean and they stocked up on everthing we might need. The back yard was private and perfect for our dog.
This place was fantastic! Clean, well stocked, and the perfect yard for the dog to run. Having toiletries in the shower and coffee available were really icing on the cake.
House was clean and as described. Big backyard and a HUGE dog crate available. Full kitchen allowed us to prepare meals easily. Love the attention to detail - the items available for the dogs were a very nice touch.
Had to rent a house in Ocala for a less than favorable reason with my wife and two dogs. Property was conveniently located and perfectly set up for those traveling with pets, including a large back yard! Well appointed and decorated home.
We stayed here last year while in town for an event and we loved it so we booked again this year! Everything was perfect! Beautiful, comfortable and very clean! Great fenced backyard for our dog. Very convenient to the area. Great neighborhood. Quiet. Great communication with the owners if we had any questions, they responded immediately. Plan to stay again next year!
My family and I were looking for a quiet and spacious place to stay with the dogs, we found out this place amazing, clean with everything you need for long stays including for our dogs, they were very kind and attentive. We recommend 100% host and place.
The nicest, cleanest and most well thought out Vrbo I’ve ever stayed in. Thank you for the coffee and creamer in fridge!!! Love the make up towels and fans, noise machines, etc. enjoyed tv’s in every room and will dray again.
Our stay with Courtney in her beautiful and clean Ocala home was wonderful. She checked to see if we needed anything and made sure all was well. There are many sites and activities in the area and I was able to show my dogs at two different conformation shows nearby. I highly recommend this property!
If I could give it more than 5 stars I would!!! Absolutely perfect!!! Clean comfortable safe and great for dogs!!! Large fenced in yard with a potty station!! If I was staying again in Ocala I wouldn’t even look at any other rentals. That’s how perfect this house it. I cannot recommend it enough!!!

About the host
Hosted by Courtney Stables
We are a nomadic family of 6 with 2 dogs. In our one year of living in hotels and short term rentals, we realized that most of these could not reasonably accommodate our large family. It wasn't fun cleaning the whole day or desperately begging for more towels. So once we briefly settled down, we decided to set up vacation homes we would've liked to have experienced during our travels - with a focus on cleanliness, comfort, and enough supplies for the entire stay.
Why they chose this property
It's a quiet, walkable neighborhood. Lots of green trees and grass.
What makes this property unique
It's a brand new construction home, extremely clean, and well stocked with new items. Soft100% cotton sheets and quilts. We provide dog amenities to make their stay just as comfy.
