Peaceful Ranch & Guesthouse Near WEC • Gather, Relax & Make Memories

Welcome to Majestic Meadows Ranch & Guesthouse

Welcome to Majestic Meadows Ranch & Guesthouse, your home away from home on 58 peaceful acres in the heart of Ocala horse country. Whether you're visiting the World Equestrian Center (WEC), attending an event at HITS, celebrating a wedding at Andalusian Oaks, cheering on the Florida Gators, exploring Rainbow River, or simply looking for a peaceful place where everyone can stay together, you'll find the perfect blend of comfort, space, and hospitality.

The Ranch & Guesthouse was created for larger families, multiple couples, wedding parties, and groups who want to share one unforgettable experience without feeling crowded. Together, the two homes provide plenty of room to gather while still offering private spaces to relax and recharge.

Enjoy coffee on the screened porch overlooking peaceful pastures, spend your days exploring Central Florida's springs and attractions or attending a horse show at WEC, then come home to cook dinner together, play cornhole, gather around the firepit, and watch the sun set beneath the majestic live oaks. When night falls, relax under some of Florida's most beautiful star-filled skies.

More Than Just a Place to Stay

At Majestic Meadows, we believe the best vacations aren't measured by how many attractions you visit—they're measured by the memories you make together.

This is the kind of place where grandparents drink coffee on the porch while kids explore the yard. Where cousins gather for cornhole tournaments before dinner. Where everyone comes together around the firepit to roast marshmallows, laugh, and enjoy a sky full of stars.

Our guests often tell us it's not just the property they remember—it's how peaceful they felt here. It's the quiet mornings, the incredible sunsets, the majestic live oaks, the open pastures, and the chance to slow down and simply enjoy being together.

Whether you're here for a horse show, a wedding, a family celebration, or just a much-needed getaway, we hope Majestic Meadows becomes a place you'll want to return to year after year.

Majestic Meadows was the perfect place for my family to stay for my daughter’s wedding at Andalusian Oaks. Everyone loved the quiet beauty it offers. Rich was an amazing host and added some unexpected details like supplies for s’mores at the fire pit and various other personal touches. The screened in porch was awesome! We spent a lot of time out there enjoying the weather and family time. I highly recommend this beautiful property!

This property is amazing. The home is spacious and comfortable. It is pet friendly and we enjoyed sitting out on the back deck enjoying the beautiful view of open farmland, watching the cows, and listening to the sounds of nature. The owner is friendly and very hospitable. This is definetly a special and one of a kind place to stay.

About the host

Hosted by Rich Mistkowski

Host profile image
Hi, I'm Rich, owner and host of Majestic Meadows. Along with my son, Mattie (20), we're honored to share this special place with guests from around the country.

Mattie has Down syndrome and an incredible gift for hospitality. He genuinely enjoys helping guests feel welcome and has become an important part of what makes Majestic Meadows so special.

Majestic Meadows is more than a vacation rental to us—it's a place where families reconnect, friends gather, and lasting memories are made.

When someone chooses to stay with us, we have three simple goals:

1. We want you to have an incredible experience.

2. We hope you enjoy Majestic Meadows so much that you'll come back.

3. We hope you leave with wonderful memories and tell your family and friends about us.

Thank you for considering Majestic Meadows. We look forward to welcoming you to our little corner of Florida horse country.

Why they chose this property

I didn't really choose this neighborhood—it kind of chose me.

Majestic Meadows was originally my dad's property. After he passed away, I realized what a truly special place it is and wanted to share it with others.

One of the first things you'll notice as you arrive is the beautiful canopy of majestic live oak trees lining the country road. It's one of my favorite parts of the drive and immediately lets you know you've left the hustle behind.

Located in the heart of Ocala horse country, we're just minutes from the World Equestrian Center, HITS, Rainbow River, Devil's Den, Crystal River, Silver Springs, and the University of Florida. You'll be close to everything you came to see, yet surrounded by the peace and quiet that makes this area so special.

Whether you're here for a horse show, a family vacation, a wedding, or simply to relax, I hope you'll experience the same sense of peace that made me fall in love with Majestic Meadows.

What makes this property unique

There are plenty of beautiful vacation homes, but I believe what makes Majestic Meadows Ranch & Guesthouse truly special is how it brings people together.

Set on 58 peaceful acres in the heart of Ocala horse country, the Ranch & Guesthouse gives larger families and groups the opportunity to stay together while still enjoying plenty of space and privacy. It's the perfect setting for family reunions, wedding weekends, horse shows, holiday gatherings, or simply spending quality time with the people who matter most.

One of the first things you'll notice is the beautiful canopy of majestic live oak trees as you arrive. As the property opens up, you'll discover wide-open pastures, grazing cattle, towering oaks, and breathtaking sunsets. Whether you're enjoying coffee on the porch, preparing a family meal, gathering around the firepit, or simply sitting beneath a sky full of stars, you'll quickly understand why so many guests never want to leave.

What I love most about Majestic Meadows is how naturally it encourages everyone to slow down. There are no crowded elevators or busy resorts—just room to relax, reconnect, and enjoy being together.

We're just minutes from the World Equestrian Center (WEC), HITS, Andalusian Oaks, Rainbow River, Devil's Den, Crystal River, and the University of Florida, making Majestic Meadows the perfect home base for adventure and relaxation.

My son, Mattie, and I take great pride in sharing this special property. Our hope is simple: that you'll create wonderful memories, leave feeling refreshed, and look forward to coming back again.

Welcome to Majestic Meadows—we can't wait to share it with you.
