Quiet and relaxing!
Thank you Laura and David, for a peaceful and relaxing stay. The place is set up so nice, we felt right at home. It is very clean and has everything you need. We enjoyed sitting out on the porch, grilling out and camp fires. We spent time at Gator Joe’s, learning about the history of Ma Barker and spent some time in the Villages. The weather was perfect!

Very nice stay
We had a great stay. Our toddlers loved the open space around the house. Our parents loved the porches. The house was very clean and had the necessities. It is conveniently located to the Ocala National Forest Springs we wanted to visit. We would definitely come back again.

Just perfect!
All the pictures look great but it doesn’t really do it justice. The owners have thought of every little detail to make your stay comfortable. I have a high stress job and this was a perfect get away. Sitting on the screen porches watching the squirrels and butterflies it was so peaceful. I would plan a future trip around the dates this place was available. I highly recommend this for your travel needs to this area.

Great Place to Getaway!
We came down from the north & snow to hike & snorkel in the Ocala Forest. Dave & Laura's place was perfect. Clean, comfortable and convenient to all we wanted to do. We were able to hit Salt Springs, Silver Glen, Alexander Springs, Juniper Springs, De Leon Springs, Silver Springs, Rainbow Springs & River, Rock Springs. Akiwa Springs... a number of state parks, and we crisscrossed the forest on the 4wd roads. We had a wonderful time and Dave & Laura place was perfect for our needs.
