Rates right up there on top! Looked like a model home and felt like we were first occupants. Cottage is equipped with everything you might want and location is the best (just missed juice size glass). We would like to return sometime.

Hello and thank you for the lovely review. So glad that you had a great time. Looking forward to hosting you again in the future.
Kind regards,

The cottage was extremely clean and has everything you could need. We spent most of our time out on the porch where there are multiple seating options. It's the perfect spot for morning coffee and watching the spectacular sunsets on the lake. The lake was great for swimming and paddleboarding. Also loved that there were lots of extra cozy blankets to wrap up in. Krista was great, she responded quickly to any questions we had and checked in to see if we needed anything.

Krista & Kevin purchased this cottage in 2021 for a winter getaway and we are happy to share it with you. We love the peace and quiet of the Ocala National Forest and the close proximity to hiking and springs.
Why they chose this property
Front row view of Little Lake Kerr and gorgeous sunsets. Steps to the lake and lodge, resort pools and amenities. There are very few cottages for rent within the resort that offer such a wonderful view and location.
