Loved the quiet

The property is a very private and quiet place to look and the stars, ride ATVs, and enjoy nature. We did all of the above and our kids were outside exploring the entire trip. Bring lots of food and bottled water if you don’t want to drive into town. You will love your stay.

This ranch is one of the best VRBO's I have ever used. The Dry prairie of central Florida is not for everybody, but the quiet, nature watching, and stars are extraordinary. The solitude is priceless. The property is large, functional and well-equipped. The House is more than a cottage and has everything you could want. The Hosts are charming and committed to making sure your stay is outstanding. I will be back.

Lovely escape

We adored our time away at this adorable cabin! All the little details make the cabin cute and cozy. The beds were extremely comfortable, the grounds were beautiful and safe to explore, the owner was extremely kind and responsive. We found a local place that sold duck eggs and another that sold local honey. We enjoyed the firepit outside, stargazing, and sipping coffee on the front porch. We would definitely book again!

Great place! Very clean, quiet, beautiful views, and the night sky is stunning. Diamara was awesome! Answered questions quickly, repaired the grill the same day and was very generous. Don't forget your bikes/toys, great trail runs right by the property.
