Live Oak Oasis on Morris Lake

LeighRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
What a nice spot to enjoy. Place and amenities were as described. The place, while small (as described), was very nicely appointed and inviting —perfect spot to relax inside or to expand your living space at the “cabana” with its covered area and large outdoor couch, along with George Foreman electric grill, and then dock on the 60 acre spring fed lake and water toys. Only a few places on the lake so it felt very comfy and quiet. Lots of water birds, plus Sandhill cranes, and an eagle too. We went to The Yearling Restaurant on Cross Creek and recommend that for a tasty meal and local history. Tefa and Jaclynn are great hosts—easy to communicate with and timely responses. Everything functioned as expected. It was a great easy-going place and location to enjoy a peaceful relaxing weekend. Great place all around!

BlueRun on upper Rainbow River best River location

BethRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
We loved our stay, right on the river! In my opinion this is the absoute best location, it's super close to headwaters. The water is beautiful and the house is perfect. The pictures really don't do the place justice. I've stayed in many Airbnb's and this is the most comfy bed to date! Communication was superb with host and they were so helpful. There are some groceries nearby, which are helpful. If you are on the fence with this one, just book!

The perfect Cottage for your Family Private Stay!

JerryRating, 5 stars3 months ago
What a joy to stay at this location. The home dates back to the 1930-40 era. The opportunity to just see what an awesome decorative style Maribel has spun upon this era of a home is worth the stay alone. Everything was beyond our expectation and the convenience of the location to town with sidewalks all the way is a real plus. As we revisit Umatilla it will be our first choice for lodging. The porch with a glass of Maribel's complimentary " RED Relaxation" liquid spirit was such a welcome treat upon our weary travels. The Porch is fantastic. One cannot visit this area without immersing themselves in the nostalgia offered by the owner and cottage.

The only thing I’d add is that there was only 2 or three dishwasher pods and I would have appreciated soap bars for the shower.

Stones Throw Riverhouse and Private Dock

DougRating, 5 stars1 month ago
This place is incredible! We will definitely be coming back. Access to the bay was quick and easy in the provided kayaks. We saw manatees on every one of our trips out, and they even came in to sleep just outside the Airbnb most nights. Swimming with the manatees is a must, and this location provides multiple opportunities. Tailor was very responsive, had great suggestions about the surrounding area, and checked in via message once or twice.

Thad was responsive through email. He sent me video on how to use the smart lock which was very helpful since I’ve never used one! We had a change in plans and got an extra night stay with no problem. The photos are exactly as the house is. It’s a very nice home and the books he had for us to look at about the home and the area were helpful with alittle comedy too. I’d stay there again the area was very nice and we felt safe with no problem!

Jennifer is a great host for an Airbnb. We encountered an issue with planned and when I asked Jennifer if we could check in early, she promptly checked the available and allowed us to check in early. Jennifer communicated quite often to us and she updated us to some recent repairs to the hot tub. I highly recommend Jennifer for all your Airbnb reservations. Also she has approximately 6 other locations to reserve. All with a different experience. Thank you Jennifer.

Custom luxury Ranch in Sunset Point

RachelleRating, 5 stars1 week ago
This is a great place to stay - we hope we will be able to stay here again next year. Everything is very clean and the house is very well stocked. Everything is clearly marked & Marc is extremely easy to work with. The house is in a great location - easy to get everywhere we wanted to go. The only minor complaint I would have is with the sectional in the living room is well used and not as comfortable as the new furniture in the lanai. We would have used the lanai, but it was too cold while we were there. Of course Marc can't control the weather - if he could have I am sure he would have as everything else was perfect!!

We really enjoyed our stay- the kids and teens loved the canoes and kayaks as well as the ping pong table. The dock was a great place to relax! The buildings have some wear as described by the host but we were impressed with the cleanliness and we didn’t see even one bug inside, which was greatly appreciated. We would stay again!

Western Theme Cabin at Puzzle Ranch

We stayed in the cabin at Puzzle Ranch for my birthday weekend. It was a wonderful experience. I loved having the cat around on the porch, also the farm animals were exciting to see. Abner gave us a horse ride for free for my birthday. The horses were calm and nice. We want to go back soon. And, next time enjoy the activity area, like the fire pit.

Reality Check / Salt Springs with a view

ValerieRating, 5 stars1 week ago
This place is absolutely beautiful and tranquil! The posted pictures don't do it justice- Reality Check is so much better in person! The hosts really have thought of everthing! We stayed for my sons annual "camping" birthday. The cabin is so well done and we felt right at home. We all had so much fun with the horseshoes and darts! We loved the swings, the pole barn and sitting on the dock to enjoy our surroundings. Having a campfire everyday was awesome! (Keep an ear out for the owls! We heard hooting every night in the Banyan tree) We also used the fireplace inside as it was colder than usual for FL! The cabin is clean and well stocked. The kitchen/dining table was large enough for the six of us to comfortably have our meals together. There really was more than enough room for all of us! Getting to the Springs to kayak and hike was easy and not too far. Marjorie was so very nice and easy to communicate with! We truly loved our stay and hope to be back again! Perfect place and host!

Rainbow River getaway - kayaks, tubes & golf cart

BoRating, 5 stars1 month ago
We enjoyed our stay, getting a chance to use the golf cart and kayaks. The private park is really nice and Rainbow River is quite beautiful. The hosts are very responsive, pretty much always answering questions within a few minutes, and willing to go the extra mile for you. While the house is an older mobile home, there have clearly been furniture and appliance updates that the hosts continue to make, so most should feel perfectly comfortable staying here. For future guests that want to use the kayaks, don't miss the seats you can install like we did at first.

VERY BEARY CABIN on Crystal Lake

JulieRating, 5 stars3 days ago
We really enjoyed our stay. This was a visit to enjoy a belated Christmas celebration with our daughter and her family. Nancy provided extensive communication, and offered ideas about activities and restaurants to visit. The outdoor amenities were wonderful. We visited when it was too cold for enjoying the swimming beach, but we did have a fire in the beachfront firepit. The dock was a favorite place to enjoy the sunshine, to watch the sandhill cranes nesting, and to feed the fish. Our birdwatcher daughter particularly loved sitting on the back deck and feeding the birds and squirrels. We also made use of the lakeside picnic table and our teenage granddaughters even tried out the swings. We love cooking together, and were able to find pretty much everything we needed to create delicious meals. We also played games at the large dining table. The space was comfortable, and suited our needs for a family get-together.

Great place to stay, especially if you’re in town for an event at UF. We came in town for the LSU Florida game and it was super convenient for a game day weekend. Just a short uber ride into the stadium. Lots of restaurants around as well. The home was spacious and would easily accommodate a good size group. The hosts were even so nice as to bring us a bottle of wine before our late arrival. We would definitely stay again!

This place is great and so cute! Gary and his wife did a nice job of offering everything you need for a comfortable stay. The front porch is perfect for relaxing outside in the beautiful Florida weather. The golf cart is a Great amenity. The guidebook in the villa was great, thank you for taking the time to make recommendations on area restaurants and things to do. We will be back when we can relax, rather than work and enjoy those pool passes! :) Thank you!!

This was our 2nd stay and it was, again, clean and spacious and perfectly located for our time with family. It is convenient to grocery stores and restaurants and our kids loved the pool. We enjoyed sunrises over the lake from the swings by the camp store and also played horse shoes one afternoon. The beds are comfortable, the shower has great water pressure, and the kitchen is serviceable. We also used the gas grill and Florida room.

This place is incredible! From the minute you walk in the views are breathtaking! All the amenities needed to basically….never leave :) Being on the lake was very peaceful and you felt right at home. The bed was very comfortable and sheets super soft. Lots of extras provided to make your stay extremely enjoyable. We loved the space and chilly nights with a bonfire on the beach. We took the boat and my husband caught a lot of fish too. A lot of upgrades and care have been invested in this property as well. We can’t wait to go back and stay again. Great deli around the corner and love Eaton’s Beach restaurant. Trust me when I tell you look no further….you have arrived! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Family Vacation house with Pool

JessicaRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
The house was very nice and we had a nice stay. Sadly we were in Ocala for my Mothers funeral however every time we returned to the AirBNB we felt like we were coming home instead of just an old hotel. The rooms were spacious and we felt comfortable. This host is great. I have two criticisms for you to look at and I never complained to our host and I’m still not but the floors were kind of dirty and dusty when we got there and I don’t think the hot water heater is on the right setting. It was hard to get hot water in the showers and also the kitchen sink is backwards as far as the cold and hot….thats totally it. The house is really nice and there wasn’t anything missing that we needed as far as kitchen, laundry, or bathroom necessities. Thank you!!!

Unfortunately we could only stay 1 night. The apartment was extremely clean and was very lovingly furnished and decorated, it's cozy and comfortable. It had all the amenities and everything you need, both in the kitchen and in the bathroom, would have liked to stay longer. The comunication with Michelle was great and we could even checkin earlier. We booked at short notice, only 1 day in advance, but everything worked out great and quickly. If we are in the region again, we will definitely book with Michelle again.
