Beautiful place..if you’re looking for a quiet getaway in nature, this is it! Home was super clean. Silver Springs is a short drive away & worth a visit. Would definitely stay here again!
Wonderful place! This was our first visit to Camp my way Ocala but it definitely won't be our last. The house was cute and had everything we needed. Direct access into the forest for great riding. Peaceful and relaxing. Communication with the host fast. Can not wait to come back!
We find ourselves coming back here over and over because we love this spot in the forest. We can let our dog out and not worry too much about him getting into anything because of the fence and it's nice in the late afternoons to sit outside and hear the birds start singing.
Comfortable, nicely equipped, and well taken care of home! I enjoyed my stay here, it was very private and peaceful. I didn’t see as much wildlife as I hoped but found plenty of birds at the lake. Diana was a wonderful host, quick to respond when I had two minor ‘situations’ and such a pleasant person to work with! A wonderful place to stay and relax!
Diana is very kind and always available for anything we needed.The house and the location are unique, full of peace and we had an incredible week; we didn't want to leave.We found what we were looking for in this place. It couldn't have been better.We will be back.
This was our third stay with them and it was great! We love how private it is and how you hear only traffic on the highway. Sammy loves having the run of the yard and was very curious about the gopher tortoise And the deer in the yard was a special addition this trip!
Fishing in Fl. and staying in small part of paradise!
