About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

The Horseman's Retreat

For work or play, you have found the perfect place to stay! This newly renovated 2-bedroom, 2-bath home features a split plan for privacy. Located 12.7 miles from the World Equestrian Center, the home sits on just over a half acre on a quiet cul-de-sac. The home is equipped with keyless entry for easy check-in and fully stocked with all amenities needed for a relaxing short- or long-term stay to include; TVs in all rooms, full size washer/dryer, and a fully stocked kitchen for cooking meals. The split plan offers two large bedrooms, each with a private bath. Both bedrooms have Roku TVs and a King size bed, with the master bedroom featuring an adjustable King size bed. The living room features a 65" Roku TV and two full size sofas with one being a (pullout) sleeper to accommodate two guests. The dining room table seats six. There is a large (mostly fenced) back yard. Guests will have access to the entire home with the exception of one (locked) hallway closet where host supplies are stored.

Our (horse farm) neighbors access their property from a private drive off the dead end cul-d-sac. Please do not proceed beyond the cul-d-sac pavement (on the dirt drive) as you would then enter private property not owned by us.

Great house! Better than anticipated!
My cousin, daughter, and I stayed for the weekend for the Rock the Country Festival at the World Equestrian Center. It was a short 13 mile drive. The house was well equipped with everything, and the host very accomodating. Beds and all furniture were incredibly comfortable! Would definitely stay again.

My husband was pleasantly surprised as the home was more spacious than it appeared from outside, and the inside was nicely decorated.The property was well maintained and equipped with everything we could have needed for our weekend stay. Our family enjoyed the space and it was homey. If our 4 and 6 year old boys can comment on how nice the home was, I think that's a win.

Awesome house in an outstanding location
We loved this place. We stayed for all of February and a bit of March. Being on a cul-de-sac in a development on the far north side of Ocala, it’s like being out in the country, which means it’s nice and quite with lots of mature trees around. The house has recently been remodeled so nearly everything is brand new. For example, it’s got a really nice side-by-side fridge. The beds are super comfortable. The owners provide free chilled/heated bottled water, which is a really nice perk. It’s got a huge, mostly fenced, back yard with a privacy fence between the house and the back neighbors, which is awesome. Even though it’s on the edge of town with easy access to the countryside, it’s still just a few minutes from a grocery store. Denise and Darin were great hosts. Any question got an almost instant response. We will definitely be staying again!

Pleasant Getaway
This small, but we'll appointed gem is nestled in a quiet cul de sac amid large oaks. It is close to town yet embraces a rural feel. Stargazing and wildlife are just a step out the front door. Comfortable beds with clean and well-supplied baths amid a tastefully decorated split plan are enhanced by a full kitchen that has just what you will need. Enjoy this getaway as a respite from the crowds and traffic, and just maybe you will never want to leave.

Perfectly lovely 2 bedroom/2 bath home with everything.
I loved it. As a Grandma, it was clean, attractive, everything easily accessible, easy to enter and close up, and did I say LOVELY. thank you so much. Couldn't have asked for a better place to spend an evening and pet the horses next door.
