The house was very clean, well stocked and felt like home. The kitchen was so well equipped we were actually able to make our own food there with all the essential and non essential tools available. Loved it!
Easy check in walked in and it smelled clean kitchen well equipped, comfortable beds would definitely recommend and stay again. We got a lot of use out of the pool as well
We stayed here for a client engagement. Property was great and a massive upgrade from hotel rooms. They have everything you need to "stay home" while renting.
LOVED our stay with Scott and Kathleen - the house is located in a great area, the house is spacious well stocked, and nice, and pool was perfect for us, loved our stay!
Really lovely property. The owners were readily available via the messaging feature on the VRBO app and answered my questions very fast. The home was clean, the pool was lovely. Highly reccomend!
Scott and Kathleen were easy and fantastic to deal with. Easy to book online, quick to respond, simple to check in and check out. Loved the house, the well stocked kitchen, being able to park in the garage, and especially the pool and backyard, will be back!
We absolutely loved this house! It was immaculate. The beds were so comfortable and loved the swimming pool. This house is in such a quiet neighborhood and so close to shopping and restaurants. Looking forward to visiting again.
Wonderful Heated Pool House Location to Downtown & WEC
My family and I love this house! About 3 miles to downtown Ocala, about 20 minutes to WEC, the pool is heated, the house has a great layout with bedrooms and bathrooms, we get to use the garage, and Florida room. The hosts are fast to respond, will definently stay here again, thank you so much.
This was my second short stay and the house is fantastic - office, pool, yard, access to garage, close to Publix and Wawa, I *highly* recommend you stay here. Thank you so much guys!!!
Contacted Scott and Kathleen last minute and they accommodated. House is just like pictures and amazing! So clean, remodeled, awesome pool. Had a nice backyard and we even got to use the garage. Would highly recommend and am staying there again for sure.
Scott and Kathleen were amazing hosts, super fast to respond with any questions . Check in process was smooth and easy. The house was very clean. The kitchen was awesome, well equipped for all your needs. Touches of tech yet very homey feel to the house. We came for work but would come back just to enjoy Ocala. Wonderful experience.
We absolutely loved staying here! We really appreciated that this is a privately owned home with personable, direct communication something we value coming from a rural area in Wisconsin. We reached out with a last-minute request, and the owners immediately accommodated our family of five, which meant a lot.Even though the weather wasn’t perfect, the accommodations more than made up for it. The layout of the home was ideal for our family, it was immaculately clean, thoughtfully laid out, and extremely well stocked from extra cooking essentials, pots and pans, coffee mugs, wine glasses, and beyond the basics, to fun extras like pool toys. Everything we needed was already there, which made the stay incredibly easy and comfortable. The beds were also beyond comfortable, which made a huge difference after long travel days.The neighborhood was wonderful as well, with many community service workers nearby, which made it feel safe and welcoming. We would absolutely love to stay here again when we return in a few months for my conference and would highly recommend this home for families!!
House was very roomy. Great layout with master on one side and 2 bedrooms on other. House was well stocked, with extra supply in garage. Didn't use pool or sun room, but looked like a lot of fun could be had. Nice size kitchen with all necessities. Owner was quick to respond to questions. Perfect location for us, close to Ft. King District. Would highly recommend and would stay again.
Wonderful home in nice area!! the amenities were great and the home very clean and laid out. We would definitely stay again and cannot recommend enough
The house was clean and comfortable and offered everything that we needed for our stay. The screened in porch was a perfect place to sit and enjoy the beautiful weather.
House was clean, layout was open and a split plan is always nice. Kids had fun in the pool and the patio was big enough to enjoy with several people. Owners were communicative.
