Really enjoyed our stay and had everything we needed. The pool was perfect and the bed was very comfortable. Host was very responsive and courteous. Place was nice and clean for us and it was a great location near downtown! We will definitely book again.
It was a lovely place to stay for a very reasonable, and I was happy that I could bring my dog. The size of the backyard for the dog was a little disappointing, but it served its purpose.We had a nice stay. Thank you.
I'm glad you enjoyed your stay, but, we are sorry we were not able to accommodate the additional day you requested. Batteries do wear out even though we replace them routinely, which is why we keep extra batteries under the sink. Sorry for any inconvenience
Loved the place. Loved the history. The pool was very nice. Great for a couple and pet friendly. The owners were great to work with. Someplace to come back to again. So so peaceful.
We loved our stay here and will highly recommend you to our friends and family. The historic location and home style really suited us. Thank you for sharing your lovely place.

Take advantage of an evening walk to enjoy the homes here and the historic area.

Thank you so kindly for your review Donald We really appreciate it
This was the perfect place to stay for my fiancée and I to get away for a weekend. The value in staying here versus a hotel or bnb was immense. The room is more like an apartment, and is absolutely beautiful. It’s located in the quiet and also beautiful historic district, and was the best choice we could make. I’ll definitely be staying here again to go to the springs and get away from Miami in the future.

About the host
Hosted by Jill
In 2021 I purchased the Historic Martin house in downtown Ocala. After months of renovation, I opened it up for guests to enjoy. I have been in the rental industry for years, and always look to have happy guests. Thank you for considering the property.
Why they chose this property
The historic district is full of charm and character. I love to walk a few minutes downtown to eat at the wonderful restaurants, shop in the boutiques and listen to live music. The architecture of each home is completely different than the next making for an interesting eclectic collection of homes.
What makes this property unique
The suite is a great value located in a great downtown historic neighborhood. Guests have parking, a kitchen, living room, bathroom, large bedroom, deck and shared pool deck all steps from downtown.
