Very enjoyable stay

Very welcoming home with so much to offer. It's full of charm, with beautiful views of the lake just across the street. The wrap-around porch, side deck, and fire pit area are wonderful touches that make outdoor time extra special. The neighborhood is nice and quiet, and the home itself is spacious and thoughtfully laid out for guests. And the master bath shower - what a treat! We absolutely loved it.Would definitely recommend staying here!

Excellent host!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Jim’s property, The Rose in Umatilla, FL! A cosy, clean and comfortable home in a great location for the Rocking Horse equestrian show. Jim has great communication and even mailed a small item my daughter left behind to us! Above and beyond! We’ll be back!

Lovely home, relaxing stay

What a gem! The Rose is a wonderful old house, so cozy and charming. It has absolutely everything you need for a comfortable stay. The beds are way comfy and that shower!!! I will most definitely miss that shower! The house was very clean and cutely decorated for St Pat's/Easter. K husband loved the little sign welcoming us. The neighborhood was quiet and I felt safe the entire time here. The front porch and outdoor living spaces are fantastic! Hubby even took a nap one afternoon on the porch couch. The sunsets are beautiful from the front porch. I would 100% recommend The Rose and will definitely stay here again. Thanks for a wonderful stay, Jim!!

Highly Recommend

My husband and I were in Umatilla for a family reunion. We were looking for a place that took animals and came across Jim’s BEAUTIFUL and CLEAN house. While we were there we had a small reunion with childhood friends which by our surprise included the wonderful neighbor behind us. By running in to him while walking the dog he told us all about Jim who then l found out knew my dad and worked with my brother years ago, small world! We highly recommend Jim’s home, we felt so relaxed and loved sitting on the porch watching a huge gator swim by-lol. It was very clean and had everything you needed. For you all looking to do the typical touristy things, you are close for a day trip to Daytona, NSB, all the Theme Parks. You’re even a 10 min drive to Mt. Dora. We will definitely be staying here everytime we come to Florida. Thanks again Jim for a lovely stay and popping in to say hi to some fellow Fireman brothers. They enjoyed seeing you! And I have to say you have an awesome neighbor.

Family Reunion

We held a family reunion dinner for 32 people. The Rose is outstanding! John was very easy to communicate with. The Rose was more than we could have expected. Very very clean. Beautiful furniture and decor. The dining room table seats 10. All 4 beds were very comfortable. The porch was perfect to set up 5 tables. The kitchen is fully stocked with everything to make a meal. Parking is not an issue. Thank you John!

Beautiful Historic Home With Lake Views

We stayed one night to be close to the springs in Ocala. It is a beautiful location with lake views, the house has a lovely outside space to sit or play. The inside is beautifully decorated and comfortable. There is plenty of space (we had 5 adults) but you could easily fit more with three bedrooms plus a pull out couch.

Hated to leave

We all loved the outdoor space, whether you wanted sun or shade it was nice to be outside and the view of the lake made it really enjoyable with plenty of room to entertain. Centrally located with lots of options for day trips. The host is very accomodating with many ammenities provided. We lacked for nothing. Comfortable beds and the primary bedroom and bath is especially nice.

We stayed at the Rose because of the location. It was close to the chapel where my sister's wedding took place. Also we had the opportunity to have a small outdoor wedding reception. The back yard it's pretty, it's big, clean,and the house inside it's pretty and spacious as well.My family and I really enjoyed staying here .

Beautiful Home

My family stayed in the home for a few days while in Umatilla visiting family. We had 2 adults and 5 kids in our party, 4 of them teenagers. There were plenty of rooms and places for us all to spread out. The home has been beautifully redone. The master bathroom is amazing! The kitchen is also magnificent. The neighborhood was safe and the view of the lake from the front porch was lovely. The coffee shop right down the road was a bonus! We will definitely stay again when we come back to Umatilla.

Nice location and great country feel home

We enjoyed our stay here and brought our boat to fish on Lake Umatilla. Ramp is only 3 minutes away and though fish didn't bite, we had a great time cruising on the lake. The kitchen was well stocked with dishes and appliances. Host was very quick to respond prior to our arrival and stated he'd be available during our stay but we were having such a great time we didn't reach out until check out to let him know we were leaving. Only possible negative was that back room of the house didn't get A/C enough so it was hot thru the night but later we saw they had a huge fan in the laundry room we could have used if it had been really bad.
