We had an incredible stay at this Dream Destinations place! The house was exceptionally spacious, clean, and fully equipped with everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The backyard is spacious, and the pool was the perfect spot to unwind and relax. There were multiple tables outside covered with umbrellas and a couple of lounge chairs giving you options to choose from when chilling poolside. Andrew was an outstanding host—incredibly attentive, responsive, and quick to answer any questions. The location in Ocala is perfect, just a short drive to the nearby attractions and beautiful Florida springs. There were plenty of restaurants to choose from nearby and a Publix supermarket less than 10 minutes away. We highly recommend staying here and would definitely stay here again if we're ever in the area.

Me encantó esta casa,! es tranquila, es cómoda, el patio es espectacular, no se escucha ruidos, la naturaleza es extraordinaria en ese patio!! Disfrute una botella de vino en el área de la piscina y disfrute mucho con mi pareja! La casa es extremadamente limpia. Si vas a esta casa créeme que te sentirás en tu propia casa obvio si eres limpio, porque esta casa estaba impecable! La habitación principal tiene una salida a la piscina y si dejas la cortinas abiertas cuando amanece se ve precioso con la vista a la piscina! Sin dudar volvería mil veces a esta casa.

We had a great stay here! The location was perfect! super convenient to everything we needed. It’s very close to Publix, plenty of food spots, and just a short drive to Silver Springs, which made exploring the area really easy. The home itself was very clean and well-kept, and the pool was definitely a highlight. We spent a lot of time enjoying it and it really made the stay feel like a getaway. We did spot a few black racer snakes outside during our stay, but they’re non-venomous and pretty common for the area, so it didn’t take away from our experience. Overall, we had a really good stay and would definitely consider coming back!

I would give this Host 10 stars!She is warm and friendly. We actually felt like family. Spotless, every thing you could possibly imagine to make your stay comfy. She even had toys for my pet. The towels were spa quality, and the bed? Absolutely perfect. I’ve never had a better nights sleep traveling. We will visit her and Tarpon Springs again!!!

The poolside guesthouse is a lovely, peaceful and comfortable space. It was a pleasure to come back to this location each night after long days in a training course. There is an excellent health food store nearby and many other businesses that are just a short ride away. The guesthouse does not have a kitchen but it has a nicely stocked cabinet and small table where you can make coffee or tea and enjoy prepared food. The home is close to beautiful Silver Springs State Park and Ocala Forest. The hosts are friendly and responsive, and the whole process flowed smoothly. I would stay here again.

Our stay with Gloria was absolutely wonderful. From the moment we arrived, she made us feel so welcome. She was incredibly friendly, kind, & always happy to answer any questions. She truly went above and beyond, even spoiling our dogs with treats and having dog dishes ready for them, which meant so much to us. The house itself had more amenities than any place we’ve ever stayed. The heated saltwater pool was amazing, having bikes plus *everything* needed for a beach day—including sunblock was such a thoughtful touch. The beds were very comfortable, the bathroom was spotless, and the towels were wonderfully soft. The kitchen was fully stocked with everything we needed. We were especially touched by Gloria’s kindness—she provided snacks and even made us a delicious sweet potato pie that we are still talking about! We loved meeting Gloria, Lily, and Oliver & truly felt cared for throughout our stay. This was an exceptional experience & we hope to stay again. Highly recommend her house!

I’ll start by saying how easy it was to communicate with the host. I arrived early and they were able to have me check in early. The house was very clean and spacious. I would like to thank them for the bottle of wine that welcomed me once I stepped inside. It felt very private and the pool house was a true bonus. I would strongly recommend booking both units as it was a great place to relax by the pool. This place was definitely worth it and I will be looking to stay here again when I visit family!
