Off the Beaten Trail…..Yet a Prime Location

Get away to this idyllic , rural retreat in the tranquil countryside. Nestled in a setting among magnolia and live oaks draped in Spanish moss, this peaceful country cottage is adjacent to a lake and located between Ocala and Gainesville.


A stay at this acre plus country setting would be ideal for those looking for a relaxed, diverse retreat. You will be surprised by the number of things to do and places to explore.

The perfect place to canoe or kayak is on the Oklawaha river, just ten minutes away. There are boat rentals and a fishing pier.
