Soak up the view during your stay.
Nestled between beautiful homes in Ocala’s Tuscawilla Historic District, our charming pet-friendly guest cottage is a three-block walk away from Downtown Ocala, less than 9 miles away from the new World Ocala Equestrian Center & Silver Springs State Park, and just minutes away from shopping, restaurants, and entertainment. We invite you to unpack, stay a while and see all that Ocala has to offer!

The space
The guest cottage is a detached, 300 sqft studio floor-plan structure on the side of our property. You’ll share a driveway with the main house, but the guest cottage & garden are entirely yours to enjoy. There is an outdoor bistro area and guests are encouraged to relax in the garden and utilize the grill that is supplied. The outdoor guest area is entirely fenced in for your privacy, and should you bring your furry friend along for your stay, the guest cottage landscaping has been intentionally designed with pet friendly plants & room for them to explore.

Our guest cottage is stocked with all the essentials: treats, wine, picnic & beach baskets, kitchen & bath supplies, as well as many things travelers often forget (ourselves included LOL). The queen size bed is tastefully appointed with linens from Restoration Hardware, Pottery Barn, & West Elm.

Whether you’re here for a romantic weekend, an outdoorsy adventure, or work, our guest cottage has everything you’ll need while visiting Ocala. We continue to add additional amenities regularly and enjoy updating the décor, bedding, and landscaping with the seasons.

We always go the extra mile to make your stay with us exceptional! That's why we've partnered with KarinD Shops 4 Me to offer a personalized touch. We can have everything ready for you even before you arrive, whether it's groceries, beach supplies, or any anything in between.

Other things to note
The guest cottage is equipped with a smart lock to make self check-in a breeze. Your personalized code will be sent 24 hours before check-in.

Through an exclusive partnership with our fabulous personal shopper Karin DeRon, our guests are offered the opportunity to have their temporary home stocked with everything they need prior to their arrival. From groceries to beach supplies and everything in between, our guests are able to tailor every detail to their preferences and requirements.

We are so glad to offer another unique perk for our guests: Dog Walking & Dog Sitting services through our trusted partner, available during your stay. Availability is limited, so we recommend reaching out at the time of booking to secure your spot!

To take advantage of these bespoke services, simply inquire at the time of booking or inform us one week prior to your arrival.
