Nice and clean
Nice property. We enjoyed our stay. Nice and clean. The only problem was that the communication with the owner was extremely poor/non-existant. I tried several times to call, to ask for an early check in, received no response but was immediately charged extra for early check in. If i could have simply been able to contact the owner, I'm sure I might have been able to avoid the extra charge. Nice clean place , but communication with the owner was very poor.

I cannot say enough good things about this house. Very comfortable, a lot of little amenities. Very nicely decorated. It’s located far enough out to be private, but very close to everything. Beck was very prompt at responding before arrival. Beautiful home…thank you Rebecca!!!

Perfect House
The house was exactly as advertised, beautifully decorated and comfortable. My dogs loved the fenced yard and I enjoyed being centrally located to all the places that we visited. Everything that you would need is provided and the beds are super comfortable. I hope to be back next winter.

Wonderful Venue
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Rebecca’s well maintained property. We were in transition from one home to a new one and stayed here for several weeks with our dogs. It is a well appointed home and we were lacking for nothing. Comfortable beds and a nice yard for the pups. Perfect location for anything related to Ocala, especially if you are intending to participate in any of the many equine events. If we did not just move into a new house in Ocala we would surely stay here again.

Wonderful pet friendly home!
I stayed here with family and friends during a show week trip to WEC Ocala. The property is just as described. The backyard was perfect for our dogs and it was a 10 minute drive to the show facility. The appliances were all working great, and the beds were super comfortable! I will absolutely stay here again during our next Ocala trip!

Such a great stay!
We were attending ARHA world at the world equestrian center and this was the perfect dog friendly stay! The house was clean, exactly as listed, the fenced in back yard was perfect for the dogs, Rebecca was super responsive and even let us extend a day when we had to last minute delay getting our horses home from the show. We plan to come back in December for a winter show at WEC and will definitely be rebooking this house! Thank you so much for an awesome worry free stay!

Nicely appointed home in Ocala
The house was beautifully done, just like the photos. Impeccably clean. The beds were comfy. The host (Rebecca) was quick to respond to any questions we had. She was very nice to deal with. We had a brief stay to look at some real estate in the area, and the house was in a great location for our purposes.

Beautiful, impeccably maintained property, well stocked
This is a beautiful property in a quiet central location 30 minutes from Gainesville and very close to the WEC. Quiet, wooded neighborhood and no detail was left untouched. Do you have everything you need to make your stay as seamless and comfortable as possible? Communication from the owner and manager could’ve been quicker.

Cute house in Ocala
Needed a place to stay while visiting my college student at UF. Found this gem. Although it was a 30 min drive for us, it was not too far off the highway. Clean, updated house, beds and pillows super comfortable, easy access with digital lock, loved that the house had TP and paper towels and shower toiletries set up for us. We only stayed two night so it was great we didn’t have to go to store for paper products. The host had very detailed instructions too. If you need a place to stay in Ocala stay here!!
