I have had the pleasure of staying at this cottage whenever I've visited Ocala for years now. It and the lovely hosts is my go-to. My mini-Aussie, Ruby loves it here too and is always intrigued by the horses. Why stay anywhere else?

Horse lovers place

This property was exactly as it was listed. The pool was awesome and the sounds of the animals on the property were fun to listen to the rooster, the peacocks and of course the snorting of the horses. The hosts Max and Ann were awesome and super nice people totally enjoyed our stay if we visit Ocala again we will surely stay here again.

Somethings out of a story book. Roosters, horses, Birds, private pool and more. We loved the little quiet oasis away from the city. The owner Max was very kind and let us feed the horses and gave us a few local recommendations. We loved their pups captain and Lady too.

Peaceful Paradise

This is our second stay and each time has been amazing. Surrounded by beautiful pastures and friendly horses, grilling in the evenings and mimosas by the pool in the morning, we had everything we needed for a relaxing and enjoyable stay. Can’t wait to come back.

Check in was easy. Max met us and showed us where everything was at. Max and Anne even met us at departure to wish us safe travels. I’ve stayed at many places and this place offers the most amount of amenities, from cleaning supplies to coffee to odd and end things like sunburn care. Plenty of towels and extra bedding. It is located on the back side of their home, but my privacy was maintained. The landscape around the pool and home offer plenty of privacy. Replies to my messages were quick. They’ve even got two super sweet dogs and the peacocks were a plus. Super sweet people. 10/10 recommend.

Quiet, Clean, Friendly

It was a nice, quiet stay (I've never heard any sirens, so what a relief). The owners were very friendly and welcoming. There are plenty of safe roads to walk by: horse farms/ranches for a nice long walk. Neighbors are also very friendly. The pool is private, and the temperature is tolerable in March and likely perfect in April. It's about 40 minutes from Catus Joe's horse riding and worth the trip.... Hiking trails are nearby at the State parks.... as well as canoeing and kayaking. I'm coming back!!!

Cute cottage with a pool

I wish I had been able to use the pool but it was just a little too chilly in December. The cottage is oozing with personality. Lots of color and light. Great spot off the back for my pup. Great communication when unneeded anything. We had a wonderful stay.
