Horse & Garden Farmstay: Rustic Meets Regenerative

Welcome to Horse & Garden Farm stay, a peaceful sanctuary tucked into five wild acres in Morriston, Florida. Here, old oaks stretch overhead, native wildlife moves quietly through the land, and guests can slow down, breathe deeply, and reconnect with what matters.

Inside, you’ll find a bright, thoughtfully designed home with cozy furnishings, a fully equipped kitchen, a welcoming coffee bar, and restful bedrooms that feel like a soft exhale. Outside, the land tells its own story — from the native plant gardens to the gentle presence of our wild gopher tortoises, a protected keystone species who have lived here long before us.

Our location is one of the most extraordinary parts of your stay. We are surrounded by some of Florida’s most iconic natural wonders:

Devil’s Den Spring and Blue Grotto — world‑famous for snorkeling and diving

Rainbow Springs — crystal‑clear waters perfect for swimming, kayaking, and tubing

Crystal River — home to the gentle manatees, with guided tours where you can swim alongside them

Goethe State Forest — directly across the street, offering miles of shaded trails, wildlife viewing, and a beautifully designed trailhead just minutes away

For equestrian guests, we are ideally situated:

HITS and the World Equestrian Center are a short drive away

Black Prong Equestrian Village is just down the road, offering trail rides, carriage rides through the oak forests, and an excellent restaurant and bar

Whether you’re here for horses, springs, forests, or simply the quiet, Horse & Garden Farm stay offers a rare blend of comfort, nature, and serenity. This is a place where wildlife is honored, where mornings begin with birdsong, and where every sunrise feels like a fresh beginning.

Come experience a stay where the land welcomes you, the oaks shelter you, and the rhythm of nature invites you to slow down and simply be.
