You were wonderful guests. We are so glad you had clear skies for star gazing. Welcome anytime for the next meteor shower.
Lovely property for a quiet getaway. We appreciated the location, beautiful trees and landscape, cleanliness and pet friendliness. The hosts were very easy to communicate with and have created a wonderful space to stay.
We had a wonderful stay. The location was secluded and very private, which made it the perfect place to truly unplug and enjoy some peace and quiet. The setting was beautiful and relaxing, exactly what we were hoping for in a getaway. Communication with the host was excellent and everything was easy from start to finish. Overall a very pleasant stay and we would definitely come back.
Everything was great, the location couldn't have been better. It was away from all the busy traffic and very quiet. The house itself was outstanding, everything was extremely clean and you had everything that you would need to have a relaxing stay. Outside was very well maintained and love the fountain. Next time we hope to stay longer.

Thank you for staying with us and for taking great care of the house. We are so glad you enjoyed your stay and you and your family are welcome anytime.
What a great place to relax and enjoy nature. Star gazing was amazing! Love the fire pit area and bird watching from the balcony. We booked for two nights and regret not having a few extra days to chill and enjoy the property more. The host was extremely easy to book and communicate with.

Thank you Laurie, we are glad you enjoyed your stay on the prairie. Hope to see yall again. Cheers
We had a blast with our friends. My wife and I stayed in our 40ft motorhome and we had nine adults staying in the house we brought a queen blow up bed and set it up where the table set and we had plenty of room and the horse shoe and corn hole games on site was a blast and all of our wives sing on the karaoke machine was unforgettable. We will be staying there again. Thank you so much for making us welcome

Thank you Jerry, we are so glad everyone had a great time. You are welcome back anytime. Craig and Patricia
Had a great weekend of stargazing and relaxation! The property was super spacious, perfect for our dog. There's also a lot of extras like swings or sports equipment that helped us make the most of the yard. The interior was cozy, clean and well taken care of. Since the property is so close to Kissimmee Prairie State Park you have a real good look at the night sky.
Highly Recommend staying out here if you can!

Thanks Dante, It sounds like yall really made the most of our peaceful place. It makes us so happy to share it with people who love to get a way from the craziness of town.
We planned this trip for our sons shotgun tournament in Okeechobee. This place was an awesome place to stay. The owners were very responsive with any questions we had. The house was fully furnished with kitchen appliances, towels, bedding, etc. There is a heart shaped pond out back and you can throw fish food and watch all the catfish swarm to the top of the water. The house is very spacious for a family of 4 and a family of 3 together. We truly enjoyed our stay and will be back next year for the same tournament. Thank you.

Craig was an excellent host! We had a little church guys retreat at the home and it was perfect for us to get away from normal life and be together. The home accommodated us well in addition to being able to setup tents as needed. We loved the land to play football in, the workout setup, campfire, grill, etc. It's a perfect little escape. Craig was super responsive and helpful with anything we needed or any questions we had. We definitely hope to come back again! Would highly recommend!

This property well exceeded our expectations the photos posted for the booking online don’t do it Justice this place is absolutely stunning. The inside was absolutely beautiful and had a decently stocked kitchen with supplies you might need bed rooms were comfortable and cozy amd spacious enough to fit my whole group inside comfortably when it rained. Outside was absolutely beautiful with the beautifully kept lawn and gorgeous oak trees and the pretty blue pond. All this beauty hidden away in the middle of nowhere, and that’s how I like it!
14 people all going to stay for a bachelor party is usually hard to entertain but there were plenty of out door activities todo to keep us all busy and having fun horse shoes, corn hole, frisbees, football, bonfire pit and a cool homage gym that works really well
Communication with the host was a breeze, with fast responses and with respect towards the guest. Everything about this place was absolutely perfect for me and my group and I will be staying here again!!!

Thank you Nathan. So glad you guys felt at home. We hope you can return someday. How you were able to assemble such a great group of young men is awesome. Our place was well cared for by so many. Big thanks!!
We had a relaxing time at Pikes Prairie Sanctuary with our pup, it was peaceful even on fourth of July weekend. The swing is a great place to relax and take it all in. The proximity to Kissimmee prairie state park is awesome. We would stay again.
