Great getaway

My brother and I were visiting our parents at On Top Of The World, and this spot was perfect! There is only 1 hotel in the area and this works as a great alternative. Just a stones throw away from the OTOW community, yet with a farm vibe. Impeccably clean with all the comforts of home. Highly recommended!

This property has been by far one of my favorites, it had plenty of amenities within the rental along with seclusion, privacy, and the goats were so awesome to watch. Very thoughtfully stocked and clean. Thank you so much, will definitely tell others and rent again!

Stop in ocala

Lived in Ocala for 27 years, had a cattle and sheep farm in McIntosh. So this stay with farms around was a real pleasure, and everything we needed so close. One standout: everything was so clean.

What a find! I have never stayed at a Vrbo and we loved Ralph's, especially our 2 dogs! When it said it had a fenced area for them, I kept looking at the pics and couldn't see it...the ENTIRE property is fenced! There is a gate you can close where you enter the property, which we did, tons of running and sniffing and Chuck-It ball playing. Cute cows with white faces and goats next door. The place was spotless and so comfortable inside. 2 bedrooms with very nice a/c. We never got a chance to use the bbq grill. We chose this location because it was right around the corner from friends we were visiting, just a couple minute drive from Ralph's. And if you know Ocala, 200 is east of the property with many food and shopping options, but it's far enough away you don't hear the traffic. Easy check-in. If I ever need a place to stay again in Ocala, this will be the place! You will love it!
