Convenient location for horse people

House was super comfortable and secluded yet near WEC and all the things I needed for a horse weekend. I did arrive at night with a horse trailer and it was difficult to see where I needed to turn in, but I blame my bad eyes and not knowing where I was going in the dark. Once I figured out the driveway, it was good to get in and pull my truck and trailer through (just a small 2 horse trailer). Beds were super comfortable and also provided some snacks and coffee area. Backyard is super peaceful and would definitely stay again. Thank you for allowing us to visit and bring my fur kids.

Great House

We had a wonderful stay at this lovely home in Ocala. We were there for the horse shows and so appreciated the bed comfort, the open, spacious floor plan. We even used the gas fireplace! Catherine was responsive but not intrusive and we appreciated the app download about the house and area. She had snacks and coffee waiting for us supplied by her. The house is tastefully decorated. We literally had everything we needed for our relaxing and comfortable 2 week stay. The yard was spacious and we were thrilled to be able to bring our 2 dogs. We highly recommend the home to everyone and we will definitely be back.
