Great place to stay very comfy beds and plenty of space!

We really enjoyed staying here. The beds were very comfortable and there was plenty of space. Anastasia was a wonderful hostess and got back to me immmediately with all our questions. One word of advice - understand when you are going to this area there is not a Publix within miles. This is a quaint little town with a country market. So if you are from the city like us don't be surprised!! It is close to so many beautiful springs and horseback riding it is a must book!!

We LOVED the house! Perfect distance to many things in Ocala National Forrest and the house had such a charm about it. Loved the backyard. Anastasia and Will were extremely helpful and made the check-in/check-out process so easy! We will be back!

Peaceful

Casual property with all the necessary amenities. We enjoyed sitting on the porch and watching the birds in the morning with our coffee. Enjoyed a canoe paddle in Salt Springs and a short hike down the yearling trail (went at the wrong time of day so was too hot).

Refreshing

My boyfriend and I came here to celebrate his birthday and get away from the city. Let me tell you this property is amazing. It’s quiet and tucked in the Ocala national forest. At night the sky is stunning and the only thing you can hear is nature. The hosts were incredibly kind and I can’t express enough how easy check in and communications were. They answered my questions quickly and had everything you would need available. They were sweet enough to give us recommendations on things to do in the area and even helped us find places that were dog friendly! I cannot recommend this place and Anastasia and Will enough. Especially if you want to get away from the city. Thank y'all again for hosting us! We had a blast!

Exploring at its best

Check-in was a breeze. It was a nice quiet location. The setup in the backyard was perfect for relaxing in the evenings. Anastasia shared lots of great places to explore. She was super responsive if we had questions. I would highly recommend staying here if you are looking for a great adventure or a restful getaway.

Hidden Gem

I cannot say enough good things about this place or the host. The location was perfect, and the host went out of her way to help give me information on the things I wanted to do in the area. We stayed so busy between the beautiful springs and the trails that we did not even get to use the fire pit! Definitely ready to plan a return trip!

Forest Retreat

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Our short getaways usually involve day hikes followed by quiet evenings on a screened porch. This area and specifically this home fit the bill perfectly. The king bed and pillows were incredibly comfortable. The kitchen had everything we needed for meal prep. The large yard was abundant with birds and natural beauty. We would definitely stay here again. Thank you very much!

Cute and clean

Bright and airy property. Everything was clean and the beds were comfy. The bathroom connects to the master on one side and to the hallway where the 2nd bedroom is on the other side. Fyi, You need to be very tall to turn on the lights for the fire pit, even with a step stool we couldn't reach it and had to call a friend. They had comfy BBQ chairs ready to use and we enjoyed some smores. There were a lot of bugs near the front door, so better to keep porch light off. Easy check in & checkout, host was helpful and responsive. The entire area has little cell reception so plan ahead.
