Peaceful country abode

We thoroughly enjoyed our 6-night stay in the quiet country away from the hustle bustle of nearby settlements. The dead end road was great for walking— very little traffic but lots of nature to enjoy. Our friendly hosts were there to respond to any need that might arise.

Our small farm boasts a spacious in-law suite that is a perfect place to rest for your vacation.

We enjoy hosting adults only. Please make other arrangements for your children (under age 18), as we do not allow children on the farm, nor do we have accommodations for children.

We'd love to share this quiet piece of paradise so you can escape your busy life for just a little while.

This stunning property has a separate apartment, with a private entrance, keyless/touchpad entry with a comfortable place to rest after a day of vacationing in the Beautiful Horse Capitol of the World.

What makes this property unique

Located just north of The Villages, this rural property is located in a quiet neighborhood with plenty of peace and quiet to just listen to nature and enjoy the grandfather oak trees with the hanging moss. Bring your bikes to ride around the large, safe neighborhood.
