Thank you so much for your review Howard really appreciate it hope to see you backThank you so much for your review Howard really appreciate it hope to see you back
My husband and I really enjoyed our stay at this very comfortable, quiet cottage. Close to a lot of restaurants downtown within 15 minute walking distance. Plenty of parks nearby surrounded by lovely historic mansions. I enjoyed the back deck, drinking my morning coffee and also enjoyed the screened front porch. Highly recommend and we are looking forward to going back again. I also hear the mansions surrounding the neighborhood really enjoy decorating for Halloween and Christmas.

For your review Bill we really appreciate it hope to see you back again
Property is a bit hidden away,, we passed it at first and had to circle back and drove very slowly. It is tucked back on the property and gas a grass driveway.Cottage is perfect for 2 people, good sized sleeping room, kitchen, and bathroom. Nice sitting area in the back as well as a screened seating area in the front. It was clean and comfortable.

Very clean, great location , great communication with host. Very comfortable and well equipped. The kitchen is a little cramped and the one counter was a bit high for someone 5’2”!

I'm glad you enjoyed everything about the Cottage but it is a cottage by description it's small. It's a cottage. And as described it's 400sf, The bar height is standard height for a bar counter. I'm sorry it was not accommodating to your hight
Perfect for our needs. We were in town for volunteer work for the week and just needed a place to crash at night. Great cottage in a fun historical area with plenty of food options nearby.

Thank you so much for your review and for your kind words we really appreciate it and hope to see you back soon
The property was cute, clean, and as described. It was very pet-friendly. The location was great and comfortable for us, and we felt safe. We don't frequent restaurants, so we did some cooking, and the kitchen was well stocked with utensils. My only issue, and it's mine, is that I am short, 5ft tall on a good day. I had a little difficulty getting onto the bed and reaching things in the kitchen. My issue, not the place! Thank you!

This little cottage was perfect and host was very nice.
My daughter and I had everything we needed for our short stay. The cottage was clean, comfortable, and convenient to shops and restaurants. Would book again for another stay.
The cottage was perfect for a two night stay with our Golden Retriever. The location was ideal for morning and evening walks through the beautiful neighborhood. We walked to dinner each night, and were able to enjoy the old historic homes and see everyone getting ready for the holiday season. We missed the tree lighting downtown by one weekend, however we hope to come back next year and if the cottage is available we will definitely stay there again. The communication with the management cowas excellent, thank you!

The cottage was exactly what we were looking for. It was our first trip traveling with our pups, & we were all comfortable. The studio is small but not tiny. There was plenty of room. The pastries, waters, & coffee/coffee filters were very much appreciated. The back yard is large and shared with the main house. One of our dogs is not a big fan of other dogs so we made sure the neighbor dog wasn't in the yard when we let them run free. There is so much to do in and around Ocala. My husband & I just went thrifting and antiquing, & we didn't even hit half of the places. We love Ivy on The Square & ate dinner there both Friday & Saturday nights, & had brunch there on Sunday. lol There are plenty of other options but we really love it there. Downtown Ocala is a great little area! If you visit on a Thurs., Fri., or Sat. night, make sure you visit The Thirsty Cobbler - a very cool Speakeasy. Make sure to follow their Facebook page for the password. ;)Our host, Jill, was super responsive. Our code didn't work (our fault - I found out I have two VRBO accounts), but she responded right away. The bed was super comfortable. There were blinds and dark curtains so you can sleep in if you like. It was too warm for us to take advantage of the fire table or the beautiful back yard, but we plan to visit again when the weather is cooler. The A/C works great & there are 3 ceiling fans! The cottage is super close to downtown in a beautiful neighborhood. It is very quiet. Definitely recommend!
