About this property
Entire place
You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.
Plan a reunion, Wedding Parties or Gatherings and enjoy the privacy on over 9 acres with a pool, pasture, pond, forever views and room to bring the whole family and friends. This home feels like you are so far away yet only 4 miles to Publix and Bannerman Crossings and a beautiful ride down Centerville to downtown or FSU and FAMU in about 25 minutes. This home is relaxing as it gets-worry free with a whole house generator and comes with a well stocked kitchen. Heated Pool Option in April-October. Early Morning Check-in and Noon Check out included.
The Space:
Casa de SueƱos: This has been my family home since 2005. The home has undergone numerous renovations over the years the last one being in 2020 to the present. There is a whole house generator which runs the entire house and could run for days given enough propane.
This home is heated and air conditioned by a multi level pair of 2.5 ton newer upper and lower level AC systems with ultraviolet light on the return, ceiling fans, and a whole house suction fan at the top of the stairs. This allows you to evacuate all the air or open windows and draw air with a fan for rapid cooling. There is a wood burning fireplace and we will have firewood on hand for your stay in the fall and winter. I also use a .003 micron air purifier to enhance the air quality. You will spending 1/3 of the time in one of the beds and so that is why I carefully selected from the best mattresses on the market. I believe you will get a great night sleep. The owner bedroom upstairs has a king-sized Puffy Hybrid Deluxe and it is heavenly. One of the other bedrooms has a Queen Nectar. You'll hopefully see the whole diaspora of wildlife while you are here--birds, wood ducks, deer, beaver, and even otters! There also could be a gator, snake or lizard so please don't let your kids and pets run off alone.
We have a Rinnai hot water system which means you can use all the hot water need and adjust the temperature. We use satellite internet here and is about 70 mps download and 6 mps upload speed. When a storm rolls in there will be intermittent disruptions. You may get buffering now and then particularly during intense cloud cover. I have had a chance to test the buffering by streaming on all 5 televisions on a clear day, my laptop and phone and did not experience any buffer issues. These are smart TV's so you should use your logins and remember to sign out of them before you leave. You can also cast content from your phone to a TV of your choice. The kitchen has just about every imaginable utensil or dish you might need for everyday use, plastic by the pool and silver rimmed China for a special event. The refrigerator is a '20 Cafe Deluxe-Bake a cake or eat a lobster-grill, steam or fry. Air-Fry or BBQ on the grill. Just bring the food and special spices. Plan a gathering and take lots of pictures!
Guest Access:
Circular drive in front. Best practice is to pull off the driveway for others to roll in and park
The Neighborhood:
This is Exurbia. The border line between rural and urban fringe. We are only 4 miles from Publix and Bannerman crossings, 15 minutes to a hospital down Centerville Road, can drive to Georgia and Thomasville on a dirt road that crosses the state line--walk a paved 5K across the street alongside Centerville and Pisgah Church. It is very quiet here.
Getting Around:
Only about 4 miles to Publix and Bannerman Crossings
Other Things to Note:
Tents, Tables and chairs are shown but not included in the stay-They need to be rented from a third party based on the party size. Heated Pool Option based on Length of stay and subject to temperatures. Can quote for you and add this onto the reservation.

Great home in a wonderful setting. The family enjoyed the privacy of the grounds and the warm accommodations. The host was easy to communicate with and made sure we had everything we needed. Will book again!
The property and stay lived up to our expectations. Quiet, clean, spacious, and comfortable for our family gathering. Steve, the owner, communicated extensively throughout the process. We would definitely stay here again!
The host was awesome. The place was absolutely spectacular!! We had such an amazing time we would never stay anywhere else if this place is availability. Truly a 5-star luxury experience. We would highly recommended especially for retreats and big family events. Plenty of space and privacy.
Our stay could not have been any better! Stephen was super accommodating and helpful. The house and property is absolutely STUNNING!!! A great place to stay for a family and for dogs! Our dogs LOVED running around the beautiful property, and our kids loved exploring. A great place to hangout and relax!
We had a fun family get together at this Tallahassee retreat. Steve was a great host, promptly responding to our inquiries and accommodating our groupās requests. We hosted a dinner for 15 people easily in the large well appointed kitchen and dining area and accommodated five different families for the weekend. The property was so beautiful and peaceful, we would highly recommend!!
Hi Steve we had a great time at your home. Memories were made and the house was perfect for our family. We had a lot of cousin time with 17 at one time on Sunday. Thank you for the food we managed to eat most of it . We are on the road back to Maryland and West Virginia. Take care and thanks for your number.. We will definitely do this again. Take and God Bless.
I booked the property for my family to stay at because I did not have enough room at my home. The house was amazing as well as the backyard pool. The scenery is wonderful with the pond. Everything is so nice and peaceful. Steve was a fabulous host. He is prompt with communication and very accommodating. My family enjoyed themselves so much that they would like to book this vacation home again! If you're thinking about renting this home don't hesitate, go for it!
This was a great stay and fun for all of my family and friends! It was a unique house that has a lot of interesting rooms. We enjoyed having the ability to have a family and friends party in a secluded venue. We loved the ability to do clay shooting too!
Everything was just as described, Host was great and easy to communicate with. House was plenty big enough for a large gathering. Would definitely recommend to anyone.
Steve in as incredible host and made sure we had everything we needed. It was the perfect venue for our small wedding and place for our wedding party of 12 to spend the weekend together.
Steve went ABOVE AND BEYOND for me and my bridal party this weekend!! The house was spectacular and we had the best weekend! Thank you Steve for your top tier hospitality, we hope to be back in the future!
We rented the awesome place to be the staging area for our daughterās wedding. We had a bridal luncheon and the rehearsal for the wedding at the spacious and beautiful property. It had everything we needed to make this wedding weekend incredible. Steve was so awesome to work with and that made our stay that much more enjoyable. Highly recommend renting this for any big occasions you might have .
