Jeff and Joan were wonderful, helpful and informative. Accommodations were spacious and clean and the view on the water side of the cottage lovely. So nice to sit outside and enjoy the variety of wild shore birds. This location made a good central spot for our day trips in all directions which was a real plus.

I can’t wait to return to this VRBO! The beauty of the area plus the peace and quiet was priceless. The cottage itself was comfortably furnished and the kitchen was well equipped with anything you might need! The owner was close by, a very nice person and easy to deal with.

Nice modest cottage. Clean and well supplied Quiet. About 8 miles to nearest grocery but lots to do in area, springs and Workd Equestrian Center in Ocala. We usually choose areas not heavily populated so it fit our bill. Hosts very helpful, friendly and responsive.

Wonderful

Jeff and Joan and family provided a warm and cozy winter for us. The cleanliness was a 10! Anything you may need for cooking and baking is provided. The kitchen aid stand mixer, blender, Henkels knife set and a charcoal grill was much appreciated. Top class rental!! Smiling, welcoming and helpful new friends were made - we truly enjoyed our stay. . It’s a bit far out from where we wanted to be, but the whole experience made up for it. Thank you, Jeff and Joan!
