Cheerful 3 bedroom home with free parking.

PhillisRating, 5 stars1 month ago
Met our needs and expectations. Clif was responsive once we were there, but he missed an email shortly after we booked causing a minor issue. Clif told us to let him know if we needed anything and I did make a couple of suggestions on items for the kitchen if you cook while staying there. It was stocked well enough for what we cooked. If we need to visit relatives again in the villages, we will certainly look to stay here!

First time in the area and felt so welcomed. Perfect little cottage for my stay, easy to find and felt very cozy. The backyard area was spectacular. Well groomed lawns to lake front dock and relaxing fire pit. Had family around the corner on the lake that could easily come pick me up on the dock. Sunrises were unforgettable with the sounds of nature surrounding you. If you’re looking for a great all around place to stay that comes with a local vibe/experience book it now #YoullThankMeLater

Heaven on a horse farm !

Shelby Rating, 5 stars4 months ago
This was our third stay on their property. It was our second stay at this particular one. It's always clean. The beds and pillows are comfortable. The property and area is beautiful and peaceful. Close to major city like Gainesville but far enough from the traffic and noise. The host is amazing. They leave fresh amazing eggs from their chickens and candy that we always enjoy! They also leave some sodas and other things there for enjoyment. Their showers have nice shampoos and water flow. I would highly recommend any of their places on this property! We plan to stay again. Thank you!

Entire 2 bedroom home w/1 car garage in Inverness

KennyRating, 5 stars1 day ago
Penny is the best host who really goes above and beyond. She had asked if my grandson had a favorite snack which was animal crackers. And sure enough there were animal crackers when we arrived. They pay close attention to make sure that our stay was a pleasant one. I will definitely be back and would highly recommend staying in this house if you are coming to the Inverness/ Floral City area.

Cozy Lake House on Lake Weir

KaylaRating, 5 stars4 days ago
Such a peaceful and nice place to go for vacation. The house and property is absolutely beautiful. The only issue you could possibly have at this place is rude neighbors to the right that seem to watch you constantly but that comes with renting places with neighbors close by. We really enjoyed our stay and definitely plan to visit here again.

2 bedroom 2 bath home with pool

CherylRating, 5 stars2 months ago
This house was better than I had hoped. It is spacious with very comfortable furniture, including the master bedroom and bathroom. The carport allowed my 2500 Chev p/u to easily park under it. Screened in porch and pool are a wonderful bonus, although I did not have time to use them due to work hours. Wi-Fi was super fast and the Roku options allowed me to watch my normal preferred apps. Area was very quite at night with no noticeable traffic through the neighborhood. Water pressure in the master bath shower was great. I will stay again, if available on my next trip to the Leesburg area. Fred was quick to reply to messages. A/C worked good and all the rooms had ceiling fans to help circulate the air like I do at home. The house is supplied with just about anything you would need just like being at your own house.

The guest house was cozy, nicely decorated, and exactly what I needed. My two dogs and I stayed for a few nights- it was very easy to check in, and the yard space was great. Everything was comfortable, the space was relaxing, and the area was quiet. The jasmines in bloom was a nice touch! Really appreciate a small AirBNB that allowed dogs to stay. Will stay again!

Your guide to The Villages

All About The Villages

Comprising more than a dozen planned retirement communities and neighborhoods and three unique downtown squares, The Villages is designed to cater to every whim of recreation and entertainment, all within a short drive of Florida’s dual coastlines. The Villages’ history goes back to the 1960s, when the area’s land tracts were sold via mail order. Officially named The Villages in 1992, the community has grown in leaps and bounds. It now spans 32 square miles and is one of the fastest-growing metropolitan areas in the state. Featuring bungalows, patio villas, and custom homes, The Villages’ offerings have grown with the development. The area is home to 50 golf courses and boasts more than 2,700 social clubs; its world-famous polo club draws 30,000 spectators each year.


The best time to stay in a vacation rental in The Villages

Typical for central Florida weather, The Villages experiences long, oppressively hot summers and short, cool winters. Due to the humidity, it’s wet pretty much year-round, and cloud cover can come and go quickly depending on the winds. Temperatures average in the high 80s and low 90s Fahrenheit in the summertime, waver between the 70s and 80s during the shoulder seasons, and very seldom drop below 40 degrees in winter. While sunshine is abundant year-round, the best time to visit is late spring or early summer, before things get too sticky. Alternatively, early fall is pleasant.
