This was our second time staying here and we absolutely love it. It’s the perfect spot for some rest and relaxation. The owners are clearly passionate about hospitality and make it such an easy experience for us as parents of 3 young kids who have just “escaped” the tourism gauntlet of Orlando. This is one of those places where you selfishly consider rating one star because you want it to stay your own little secret but obviously wouldnt actually do that. Thanks again, we had a great time.

We stayed 6 weeks at the cottage. It was clean, inviting and most of all quiet. The beds were very comfortable and warm. It did get cold for a few nights but the HVAC worked like a charm. What stood out was the washer and dryer availability for us. Riding bikes and hiking is our thing so clothes get dirty. No need to go off site to wash.

Peaceful and serene country cottage

With family living 10 minutes away in Williston we found this place to be the perfect retreat for getting away and relaxing after a long and hectic day!At first it seemed odd walking into a bedroom/sitting area from the front door but it actually worked quite well with a dining room separating the two bedrooms. We found the place very roomy with the exception of the kitchen which is quite small but certainly workable and has all that is needed. The small touches of coffee, muffins, OJ, cereal, milk and wonderful treats provided by our host were greatly appreciated and saved us a trip to a grocery store!The decor made it feel so warm and cozy! Original wood floors with soft rugs everywhere, pictures on all the walls and plaques with encouraging words made it interesting to simply study and enjoy. Morning coffee in the chairs by the front door gave me the perfect way to start my day.The cottage sits just off of a very quiet and beautiful country road and faces the woods which offers peaceful privacy and serenity.I would love to stay in this cottage again and highly recommend it. The pictures on the site simply do not do it justice!
Morning coffee outside was peaceful and private.
Very cozy cottage!

Cozy Cabin filled with Love

This quaint, quiet cabin is a gem of a find. Marylee and Ken have created a safe, clean, & personalized experience that is top notch. It is stocked with all the essentials and Marylee is very responsive and helpful. We had such a fun time playing games and visited Devil’s Den and the gardens that are within a short driving distance. We also enjoyed Homestead, an outdoor venue with food, live music, games, shops, and spirits, just a short drive away. You’ll be glad to find this hidden cabin. We will definitely be booking again when in the area!

Perfect Cabin Perfect Location

This was a fantastic place to stay. I came down to dive at the local springs and was only about 10 minutes away, Gainesville is about 20 minutes. The inside is very clean and had all of the amenities you could want. Outside had tables chairs and a grill. The owner met me when I arrived and introduced herself. I would highly recommend this property for any future stays in the area.

These hosts know how to host!

Can’t say enough about this place and these hosts. It was just the perfect respite we needed after basically two travel days. The place speaks for itself, everything is clean and comfy and in really good shape. We loved the decor and the outdoor area (just wish we had time to enjoy it!). The little things really made it for us; it was such a relief to see the breakfast things and know that I didn’t have to run out first thing in the morning. We hope to stay there again.

Cozy cottage for a little R&R

We needed a place to stay for a little R&R after the holidays and this place was perfect. Cozy and peaceful. It is far enough away from the hustle and bustle of life but close enough to town if you need anything. It was very clean and had comfortable beds.Between the continental breakfast and the other little extras it was definitely a plus for us. The host reached out to us on our day of traveling to see if we would be there after dark so they could have the lights on for us. That made us feel great before we even arrived. I see us returning sooner than later.

Great Pivot to Springs and Gainesville

Loved the two night stay in Williston at this property. Owner was extremely thoughtful, accommodating, and the property itself has great charm. They left little gifts of coffee pods, candies, single serve cereals... and even some fresh milk and orange juices to go with it. Would highly recommend. The property is meant to accommodate 4 grown adults comfortably... but could easily host two families of four.

Cozy Cottage under the Tall Pines and Oak Trees

Loved the cottage for our group of six. We enjoyed sitting outside every morning and evening. Plenty of chairs under the umbrella and trees made it so enjoyable. Kitchen a bit small but a big dining table where we could all sit together for our meals. Clean, cool, and comfortable inside with comfy beds. It was perfect for us! We loved the muffins and coffee. Thank you so much! We will be back next year.
