Awesome! Stacey was extremely friendly, responsive, and accommodating. We were travelling with our 2 small dogs and this property was great for them. The dog enclosure was spacious and safely enclosed and gave them lots of freedom to safely run around. The room.was comfortable, clean, quiet, and exactly as advertised. I highly recommend the breakfast if it was available. It was DELICIOUS! 5 star rating, we will definitely stay again next time we are in the area!

Stacey and Steve were wonderful hosts. We had a great time celebrating our 30th wedding anniversary here. They made it special in every way. The "Nest" is so unique and cozy. It had everything we needed to enjoy our stay. And, Stacey is an excellent baker! Her bagels, cinnamon buns, and cake is delicious! Breakfast here is highly recommended! Thanks Stacey and Steve for everything. We would love to come back.

Definitely recommend! We had a wondeful time. Stacey was very accommodating, friendly, and eager to provide any assistance we needed. You could tell she wanted to make sure her guests had a good stay. They're very pet friendly with lots of areas for our fur baby to run around. The property was nice and we felt very safe in the area. We had breakfast made by Stacey. Hands-down way better than any hotel breakfast either of us had had. Homemade bagels were amazing.

The host was very nice and easy to communicate with. The window AC unit makes so much loud noise impossible to rest and for us the bed was not comfortable... its way to soft. We could hear every banging noise from the garage when they are working as we were attached to the same barn. Also, the mowing at 7.30am was a little off putting.. we didn't really rest well but it's close to silver springs ..

Thank you for your feedback. We are sorry to hear that your stay did not fully meet your expectations. We have not previously received concerns regarding the air conditioning or the bed, and many of our guests have commented on how comfortable the bed is. However, we understand that comfort and temperature preferences can vary from person to person. Regarding the mowing, we do apologize for the disturbance. Our groundskeeper arrived earlier than usual to pick up the mower and mow the back five acres of the property, which does require him to drive past the Nest. We understand how that may have impacted your morning. For reference, our posted quiet hours are from 10:00 PM to 7:00 AM, but we certainly regret any inconvenience caused during your stay. We appreciate you choosing to stay with us and thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We wish you all the best in your future travels

A unique bohemian decorThe room was stuffy with an unpleasant ordor when we arrived. We aired it out with an open door and the ceiling fan.There was no toilet paper. We provided our own TP.The bath mat was wet on the bathroom floor. We draped it over the edge of the tub.Location was convenient while visiting Ocala.

This experience was absolutely awesome! This was our first time trying out a VRBO property and we hit the jackpot. Stacey and Steve were great hosts and took care of our every need. Steve greeted us upon our arrival and got us settled in to the Bohemian Nest. They welcomed us and our 2 dogs with open arms. The dog run area was absolutely gorgeous and the best I have ever seen, our fur babies had the ability to run, run and run, which a real treat for them. I can't say enough about the property, absolutely stunning, quiet and peaceful. So much better than a hotel/motel where people are walking the halls and doors slamming, parking issues etc. I can't forget to mention the best bagel and roll ever.... For a slight upcharge you can have a homemade bagel, cinnamon rolls, eggs, fruit, juice in your room all homemade by Stacey. Highly recommend!!
