Peaceful house in Ocala

I spent 5 weeks in this peaceful beautiful house. Well appointed and cozy. Plenty of room for my three friends to come in for a visit. Super nice neighbors and I really enjoyed the big yard for my dog. I felt like I was in the country yet 10 minutes from dinning and shopping. Rey close to WEC.

Girls weekend

The house was clean and comfortable in a quite country setting. The kitchen had all you needed and more! The check in and out process super easy. Juan(the host) responded to any questions we had immediately. The pool was a big big plus in the June heat. We loved hanging out and relaxing a bit before our event. Would recommend highly if you are staying in the Ocala area and looking for a great house for a family or group. Would definitely stay again!

Great place to stay

Had a great stay here with family. Enjoyed the country atmosphere. Would love to stay here in summer when swimming pool can be used. House was clean and had everything we needed to enjoy our stay. The split plan of the house was perfect for our family.

Clean inside, no heated pool

Overall this was a fine place to stay. The inside was very clean! The beds were comfortable. There were no wash clothes, only towels and two hand towels. I gave 4 stars because the lani/back patio was dirty. And this was advertised as a pool home but the pool was not heated so we were unable to use it, which was the reason we chose this house over others. The cleanliness of the inside of the house was much appreciated!

Home away from home

We couldn’t of enjoyed our stay any more than what we did. The atmosphere definitely was relaxing and calming. It made us feel right at home. There was plenty of room and the pool was amazing. Such a quiet neighborhood. Juan was amazing and was so communicative with us when we needed him or had questions. Will definitely try to go to any of his properties for now on!

Definitely disappointed

After all the positive reviews I was looking forward to our stay but was definitely disappointed with the property. Not well maintained at all - high grass, lots of lights burned out, shower door kept going off the track every time you used it, etc... Just several issues you don't expect with a vrbo property - especially when paying a decent price along with an outrageous cleaning fee. Also, there was a safety concern as the back sliding door didn't lock, but rather had a broomstick and a piece of flooring jammed into it to lock it. When I provided feedback I was told the door did work - which doesn't make sense since there is clearly a broomstick and piece of flooring there specifically to "lock" it. Just lots of excuses. I have never left a bad review before, and our family stays at VRBOs fairly often, but I don't want anyone else to experience what we did. Maybe because it's for sale they are letting maintenance slide, I would have thought the opposite, but who knows these days.

Cozy Farm home

Beautiful home, nicely appointed and conveniently close to WEC. After a hot day at the Horse show, it was so nice to jump in the pool and get refreshed. The property is kid friendly and my 3 and 6 year old grandsons loved exploring the fenced in spacious, wooded yard. It was nice to take walks in the neighborhood that also had various farm animals to see

Great Stay

We enjoyed our weekend stay. The neighborhood is quiet and close to Rainbow Springs State Park. The dog loved the fenced backyard. We loved the pool. The kitchen is well stocked to cook a meal. We would definitely book this house again on our next visit to Ocala.

Secluded & Private

We enjoyed our visit. The home had everything needed to make our trip fun. The pool could use heating as an option for bookings in April. We did swim in Rainbow Springs but the pool at the house was around 60 degrees and all the shade trees don't help it warm up throughout the day. Our dogs enjoyed the fenced yard & the doggie door. There is a horse ranch next door with chickens. Some early morning wake ups due to animal noises. Would recommend to a friend/family member. The house is for sale & the pictures on Zillow are way better than those on VRBO. We were scouting the area for my inlaws that are retiring to FL soon.

Brief WEC visit

The house is clean with large closets in bedrooms. The 1/2 acre backyard fence has no-climb to ensure your pets stay put. The front 1/2 acre has board fencing only. So I was pleased with how much room my dogs had to play. Owner was quick to respond to any questions or issues. Felt very safe there, as well as privacy.

Great for our weeks at WEC

We had a wonderful time. The house is quiet and clean, located in a quiet neighborhood. We had everything we needed to prepare our meals as the kitchen was fully stocked. After our long days at WEC, it was great to relax on the oversized couches and watch movies or take a dip in the pool, or sit on the enclosed lanai. The oversized lot was perfect for our dog; it was safe and secure. The home even had a doggie door! The wifi was a great addition. I was able to set up my office in the dining room and work easily. We will definitely consider this property on our future returns to Ocala.

Everything you need at more!

We stayed here to celebrate a 40th birthday party and to visit the nearby springs. The kitchen is stocked, the house is clean and everything seems to have been newly updated. The beds were comfy and the pool was sparkling clean. Property is very well kept. It was a great time and we wish we could have stayed for longer! The only negative I will say is the dryer is either not vented to the outside or it's clogged because we ran it to dry some towels and it set the fire alarm off with the heat it gave off in the laundry room - might want to consider looking into it for safety.
