Beautiful place to stay while traveling!
My family and I stopped in Ocala to kayak Silver Springs and then head on to St Augustine. We arrived and the house was very easy to find. Check in process and communication with host was perfect. We were “warned” through the reviews about the steps but once you have your things upstairs, the apartment is clean, cozy and just what we needed for our stay! Would definitely stay again when in the area! Silver Springs is less than 15 minutes away and Ocala is a beautiful little town.

An outstanding experience. One of the best!
This was one of the best Air B&B type accommodations I have ever stayed at. I stayed here with my husband and our dogs. The place was beautiful. The beds were soft and comfortable. They provided water bottles and farm fresh eggs (!) from their chickens in the fridge. The common areas are spacious. There's a gym, an office, a piano room. Everything is clean and labeled. It was even decorated for the holidays! The hosts really thought about what we would need and how to make us comfortable. Check in was easy and check out procedures were minimal. The area around the hotel is nice. There are places to walk and many of the buildings are cute looking. You're not far from stores & restaurants downtown. Something important to know before staying is that the home is at the top of a steep flight of steps. Being that it's a historic building, there's no elevator. You'll have to get your luggage up the steps so keep that in mind. The stairs would be a challenging climb for anyone with mobility issues. It's also not ideal for young kids. None of those were a factor for us, so we had a fantastic stay. I only wish we could have stayed longer.

Feels like home
We visited this property last year and stayed downstairs. This time we chose the larger upstairs apartment. The minute we walked in the door I loved the sun filled rooms , beautiful kitchen and large bedrooms. The only complaint that I have is the stairs. I fear that someone will really get hurt walking up or down those stairs. The stairs are to steep and only have a railing on one side. Is there possibly an alternate safer stair case. Thank You for sharing this wonderful home with us.
