The home we stayed in in the Ocala neighborhood was very cozy and comfortable. It was very nice to be able to come back from a day of fun to an actual house. The interiir design was well put together and the pictures taken very artistic.

Well stocked kitchen, comfortable beds. House has plenty of space for relaxing. Great location for enjoying many nature trails and beautiful waterways. The house is located next to a busy road. Although it is noisy on the outside, it is very quiet on the inside.

Wonderful place with lots to do
The home is very clean and located in a quiet neighborhood. The pool and pool table leave you with plenty to do when you are not visiting the springs or town. The bed was comfortable and we had everything needed to enjoy our stay. Plenty of stores and restaurants nearby but you are not in the middle of town. It was the perfect spot for us.

Cute House
House was clean and perfect for couple stay. It is on a side street which seemed to have heavy traffic so outside area was kind of noisy. Inside was quiet though. Ceiling fan in living room didn’t work and pool wasn’t clean. Small issues that I didn’t bring to owner’s attention. Pool guy came a day late which may have been the issue. Owner and property manager were very responsive to any communication I had with them. Different than some of the VRBOs we’ve stayed in as the house was also a residence it seemed. Overall a nice stay and convenient to what we wanted to do. Less than a mile from Walmart also for things you might need.

Everything was as advertised. Very impressed with the property. Location was perfect, there was nothing I needed. The house was completely stocked with everything for the week I stayed. Perfect location for what I needed to do in Ocala. Also, a very, very clean home! I will definitely stay here whenever I visit Ocala😊

The house was exactly what was advertised. It felt like home away from home. We will definitely be returning, but next time hopefully the weather will cooperate so we are able to use the pool.

We didn't spend too much time
at your beautiful home. We were gone before sunup and back after sundown. It is a lovely home. The "second" (not master) shower tends to get slippery. It could use grab bars and a bath mat.
