Long weekend

We stayed over a long weekend for a swim meet. Location was close to shops and restaurants which was convenient for our group. Don was very easy to communicate with and responded quickly. We had the unfortunate mishap of a power outage due to a downed electrical line after a vehicle hit it down the street, but he kept in contact with updates and power was quickly restored. The house was clean and even stocked with snacks and beverages for us which was greatly appreciated after hours of travel! Thank you!

Family Trip

We enjoyed our stay the house was very clean and nice the pool was absolutely amazing we had so much fun hanging out swimming. Me and my husband enjoyed playing pool on the pool table as well. The house had plenty of things you need to start your vacation from seasonings to coffee pool toys and much more. We will definitely be back and it’s in a great location for every thing.

Great weekend getaway

We loved our stay here. The house was clean and spacious. Our dog enjoyed the fenced in back yard. The swimming pool was great, and the pool table got used a lot more than we thought it would! Everything was within 5 minutes of the house, it was great. Don was a great host. I highly recommend staying here!

Attention to detail lacking

Home was fine. Check in was easy. They left plenty of basics like towels, detergent and paper products. Rented for the pool but the water was so cold we couldn’t use it. The location was good. Unfortunately the house needs a better cleaning junk on the doors and walls and kitchen cabinets. Dust and bugs behind the bedside tables (noticed when plugging in charger). It’s frustrating to grab a hot pad and it’s covered in old food. Old food in kitchen cabinets and on pans.

Beautiful Home

We enjoyed our stay at this beautiful home. This place had more amenities than I ever expected and was meticulously clean. We enjoyed spending time out by the screened-in pool and we played many rounds of pool at the pool table. I would not hesitate to rent this place again.

Peaceful hideaway.

My husband and I were so impressed with the accommodations from the inviting entrance to the centralized kitchen, the pool table, and the swimming pool. Everything was so well kept and updated and very clean! We were greeted with a variety of snacks inside the entrance and drinks in the frig. The backyard pool had complete privacy and the beautiful trees in the neighbors yards provided music from the rustle of the leaves to birds chirping morning and evening. An added feature of this house is that the master bedroom is on one side of the house and two bedrooms on the other are tucked down a small hallway that is separated from the kitchen so there is no noise heard in the kitchen. Everything is quality from the Whirlpool microwave to the Samsung large capacity washer and dryer to the bath towels. And the shower pressure was the best ever! It was the best rental we have ever had.

Spring break

We rented this property for spring break with our children and grandchildren. The house is beautiful and clean. The kids enjoyed the swimming pool, although the water was a little cool for me. The pool table got more use than I imagined. Would definitely rent this unit again.

Home away from home!

This home felt like home away from home. The beds are super comfortable, my husband and I have bad backs and we actually slept in for the first time in years! Even though it was rainy and a little cold outside we didn’t get to swim but the pool was very nice. We really enjoyed the pool table! The home is welcoming, we will definitely stay there again when we come to visit our family! Communication was easy and Mr. Bell was very pleasant! Thank you so much for opening your home for my family and I to spend time with each other!

Great property for me, my son, daughter in law and granddaughter. Perfect location and house was in great condition. Communication was excellent. Only issue was Keurig did not work, however they responded immediately and dropped off a new one! Would, and in fact, plan on staying here again!

Horse family in town for a show

House was great and had everything we needed for the most part. House is about 15 min from the WEC, we were in town for the week of thanksgiving and our family made a great turkey dinner, oven was a bit wonky at first but it worked in the end. Pool was great even though it’s not heated so limited use at the end of Nov in Ocala. We’re greeted with snacks and beverages in the fridge. Centrally located in Ocala with easy access to the highway.

Awesome House

My husband and I, along with our 9 children from infant up to 15 years old had a great time here. We live a couple hours away from Ocala and just wanted a little vacation with a pool house for the kids to enjoy and usually we go to Orlando but tried this and I loved the Ocala area way better. This house is literally right by all the restaurants and shopping you could think of without the traffic and chaos of Orlando. The house was clean and well furnished, the owner was awesome, loved the layout and the pool table. I highly recommend!
