UF Graduation Trip

We were visiting to go to my masters graduation at UF in Gainesville. This was the perfect location for us halfway between Gainesville and the Orlando airport. We loved the house and the pool was clean and warm! Definitely would recommend for anyone looking to stay in the Ocala area. El Toreo was also a great dinner spot!

Tori was wonderful to work with. She is genuinely concerned for the comfort of her guests. The home was clean and had extra little touches some owners don’t always think of. I actually reached out to her praising the cleanliness of the home. Would definitely stay again if in the area.

Thanksgiving Blessings

When we walked in the front door, this place felt like home. Tori pays close attention to details, like the sitting room in the back. That coffee table was perfect for playing games and puzzles with our Grandsons. The boys really like the Snoopy-themed bedroom. The yard was very well kept, we loved the Oak tress & Spanish moss. Beautiful!

Meets Your Needs!

We had booked this property, specifically looking for a heated pool for the kids, since we wouldn't be close to the beach this time. The pool was a bit chilly for us (solar heated but the kids didn't care and if you're not from Florida don't expect private pools to be heated 80+ degrees that costs big $$ down here!) but we expected it to be chilly due to the cool nights/mornings and it rained a good bit the first night/day- no fault of the host by any means and it was clean!! The house is very spacious and has a well equipped kitchen if you're plan to stay in and cook! The grill is in good working order. I wasn't sold entirely on the beds and the master bed could use a new mattress in the near future. The twin beds were decorated in a cute Snoopy theme but the metal frames will need replaced or maybe tightened up- especially if adults plan to sleep on them. The front bedroom was also a king and comfortable. There are a lot of extra pillows if needed in the closets!! The neighborhood is quiet and traffic is slow enough to ride bikes, run or take walks. Communication was great with our host as we had some questions and received quick answers and results! The house is clean and has a "lived in feel" that gives off cozy vibes! We enjoyed movie nights on the couch with all the extra fuzzy blankets. There is shampoo, conditioner and body wash for the bathrooms and appreciated the plethora of towels and the make-up towels! There are extra pool towels to use and bring your own dive

Close to WEC and perfect for the weekend.

We stayed two nights to show at WEC. It was SO CLOSE and made it easy to get to and from the show. The house was clean, comfortable and had great amenities. My son was upset it was too cold to use the pool. The property manager responded to us very quickly when we had a question. It was perfect for what we needed. It was in a very nice quiet neighborhood.

We highly enjoyed our stay at Tori's property. She was very responsive to questions prior to booking which helped us to make a good decision on where was the best place for us to stay. She also was very helpful in returning some valuables I left behind me. We enjoyed the Lanai and other amenities. Wi-fi worked great which sometimes can be an issue if you need to work on your vaca..lol. Kitchen appliances all seemed very new. Bedrooms very nice size with plenty of space for clothes and such. All around very clean home and property. Very nice neighborhood. 5-10 minutes to WEC.

About the host

Hosted by Tori

We fell in love with Ocala while visiting friends in 2020. In 2021, we purchased our first home and with the intent to provide a home-away-from home place for people to stay while traveling. We enjoy hosting so much. We have met so many wonderful people from all over the United States, Guatemala and the United Kingdom. In fact, we enjoy it so much, we purchased a second home in June 2022 and are actively looking for a third!

Why they chose this property

Since we love to travel ourselves, we know what we are NOT looking for in a home. Too often in our travels we have found homes that were not comfortable and not very well equipped. We made sure our home in nice and cozy with all the comforts of home. The kitchen is well stocked with upgraded appliances, including an air fryer, Keurig coffee maker and Belgian waffle maker. The kitchen is stocked with aluminum foil, plastic wrap, baggies, etc.

What makes this property unique

We have a large, one acre lot in a super quiet neighborhood, but we are still close to shopping and some of the best restaurants around!
