Country Relaxation

We booked this house so that we could be close to the variety of natural springs that are in the area. The house was icing on the cake. Tons of room, fully stocked with everything you need, and a great location. If we are ever back in the area, we will definitely rent again.

Quiet and Relaxing

My fiancée and I were yearning some seclusion from the busy holiday season and this place did the trick. The home was lovely and we enjoyed making s’mores by the fire outside. We are adding this location to our list of little getaways and look forward to returning.

2nd Stay at Majestic Meadows

The property and Rich (the Host) are amazing. This is my 2nd trip to Majestic Meadows and my son and I fully enjoyed everything about this property and its close proximity to Goethe Forest (15mins). I plan on taking a weekend getaway trip to the property in the upcoming months with my fiance. Everything about the property and location is perfect for a relaxing weekend.

Peaceful Retreat

Our stay at Majestic Meadows was enjoyed by our entire group! The property is beautiful with all the comforts needed for a relaxing time with family and friends. The owner/operator is super helpful and responsive of any need we had during our stay. This would be a perfect place for parents of UF students...Graduation, Parents Weekend, or football games. We will definitely be back!

About the host

Hosted by Rich Mistkowski

Host profile image
My name is Rich Mistkowski. I am the owner & host of Majestic Meadows, along w/ my son Mattie (20). Mattie was born w/ down syndrome, but he has incredible hospitality skills, so he helps me. We both love sharing this beautiful property w/ our guests.

We have 3 goals for our guests 1) We want you to have an incredible experience 2) We want you to love it so much you come back 3) We want you to love it so much you tall all your friends.

Why they chose this property

I didn't choose the neighborhood. It "kind of" chose me. I live in NJ. Majestic Meadows was my dad's property. After he passed, I realized how beautiful the Ocala area is and I wanted to share it with guests.

One of things you'll notice on the way into Majestic Meadows is the canopy from the incredible Live Oak trees along the road. The trees are huge and are absolutely beautiful. It provides the perfect setting for your arrival to a very special property.

What makes this property unique

There are so many reasons why I love this property. But if I had to sum it up, I would say the peacefulness and instant connection.

Once you're on the property, just stop and take it all in. Notice the gentle continuous breeze, the quietness, the cattle might be in the pastures. You might be awake for some incredible sunrises. Or you might be there for a thunderstorm. Or you might be there for a full moon and sky filled with stars. There is no shortage of reasons as to why this is a special property. Whatever it is, please close your eyes, take a deep breath and just take it all in. You'll find the calm that many of our guests experience!
