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!

Cleanest place we have ever stayed
