Perfectly clean, perfectly quiet, perfectly delightful. Rest and recharge in this hidden gem. Host Jean Thornton was readily responsive even though off-site for our stay. It is an active stable and the staff were friendly and patient with our questions. Will definitely book again. Horse feeding tips, they like carrots and cored apples, seeds are not good for these majestic animals. DeLeon Springs State Park nearby is an excellent excursion.

It was a cute, quaint cottage set on a horse property. Jean, the host, was great and responsive. My brothers and I stayed here for a wedding. It was a great location for peace and quiet. Walking in the morning was nice. There are numerous horse farms in the area. Make sure to visit the Arena she has on the property. It is amazing all the awards they have. You can also get wifi access at the arena if you need to. Overall, we had a pleasant stay.

Weekend Family Stay

We enjoyed staying on this lovely horse property. Our small human enjoyed walking around and seeing the horses in real life. The cottage was comfortable for us and our pack and play fit in the main bedroom on the side which allowwd us to keep and eye on the small guman for naps and also get around in the room.

Stayed for 2 nights while in Daytona for a festival. Checkin in was easy and host responded to questions very fast. Not the easiest place to find when leaving a music festival at midnight but very comfortable and had no problem sleeping

Location was perfect

We loved being so close to the springs to catch the pancake breakfast before the crowds! Just the right size for the five of us! Girls strolled the walking trails while boys cleaned up. Easy drive to Eustis, Deltona, and New Smyrna Beach. (45 min) Jean was super nice and helpful. Our 2nd stay! Thank you!
