Ocala Visit
3/5 Upon arriving at the property, we were greeted by neighbors next door who had a pit bull on a leash. This was alarming. The house set far back from the road. The yard and front porch were full of leaves which could be hazardous if wet. At first sight, I was afraid I made the wrong choice.
This property can only accommodate one couple comfortably. The second couple needs to sleep on a pull out bed or couch.
It was difficult to walk to town because of the lack of sidewalks on the street where the house is.
This property is close to Silver Springs, the Santos Bike Trail (which is a fabulous 15 mile greenway for bike riding), and downtown Ocala (when driving). That was a positive.
This property was clean on the inside. Amenities were good except for sleeping arrangements.

Hi Jean Marie, we truly appreciate you sharing your thoughts about your recent stay. Your feedback is essential to us, and we've relayed your comments to the homeowner, who would like to share the following:
- Our listing reflects the layout of the home, though we’re sorry if you were caught off-guard. We pride ourselves on being transparent and accommodating to all guests and would have been more than happy to walk you through the exact layout of the home before you booked.
- We use local, professional photographers to make sure that the listing photos correctly reflect the property, so the features you see on the listing are accurately advertised, and guests can decide before booking if the home meets their expectations.
- We try our best to accommodate guests and provide a welcoming environment. As for the leaves on the property, while we make every effort to keep the decks clean and inviting, we also appreciate your understanding of the inevitable presence of nature. We're sorry these out-of-the-ordinary events occurred during your visit.
- While we cannot control external factors like neighborhood dogs, we’re sorry this impacted your stay. We go above and beyond to provide a comfortable experience for guests and we're sorry that outside circumstances changed that.

Quiet, Cozy month in Ocala
5/5 Centrally located house with everything we needed for a month in Ocala. Short drive to local attractions. Comfortable, well-stocked home with washer/dryer on site. Plenty of towels and bed linens. Quiet neighborhood. Would love to stay here again next time we visit the area.
