About this property

Oak Flats Farm - Pet Friendly - Star Link - Outdoor Shower

We are offering a quiet space overlooking our main pasture and pond nestled under Oak trees. Our 20 acre farm is surrounded by mature Oaks giving it a secluded feel and is fully fenced for privacy and safety.

We provide a double bed, basic kitchen amenities, a half bath, and an outdoor shower. If you want more sleeping space feel free to pitch a tent or message me about bringing in a trailer.

We live just across the pond and are available when needed and meet each guest upon arrival.

Morriston is located Levy county, lovingly nicknamed the "Nature Coast" in Florida. Lots to do near by! Some of our favorites are snorkeling at Devils Den, Kayaking down Rainbow River, and meeting up with friends and family at Blue Springs.

Looking forward to hosting fellow adventurers!

Peace and Quiet Oak Oasis

The property is lovely! The shed converted to a tiny house is situated under oak trees between a sheep pasture and a cow pasture, and has a chicken coop near the tiny house. The area is totally fenced off so its safe to bring your dogs and ket them run. We loved our stay!

Good location and amazing yard

Great little house that is exactly as listed. Brought my dogs here and the yard is incredible, lots of space for them to roam with cows and sheep in the adjoining pasture for them to look at. The outdoor shower has hot water that feels so good after spending a day in the springs. Would stay here again

We were greeted at the entrance by the owner who showed us around, very welcoming, easily reached if we had questions. Nicely set up and we loved the outdoor shower! The fresh eggs were great! As for us we are 67 & 71 y/o couple who enjoy the outdoors, hiking, camping…no crowds.

Brenda’s Florida parks trip

This was such a lovely setting, surrounded by pastures and farm animals on the other side of the fence from the pasture area I was in. The outside shower was well-built and I felt that I was in the middle of nature. The host family was gracious and had fresh eggs laid by their chickens in the refrigerator waiting for me to enjoy. There was a charcoal grill and patio table and chairs outside under the oaks and reading my books outside on that patio was just the right way to spend a hot afternoon. Overall one of my more enjoyable stays

Wonderful

The property was the perfect place to stay if you want a small and secluded get away. The surroundings were beautiful especially being able to watch all the farm animals. The hosts were great and very helpful. It was only a twenty minute drive to Dunnellon and a thirty minute drive to Ocala which is perfect if you don’t mind driving.

Retirement getaway

My wife and I both retired in the past year, we were looking for a great place to get away from the mid west. This VRBO property was the perfect place, location was spot on only about 1 hour to multiple great places to see. Cedar Keys, wolrd equestrian center, three sisters (kayak with manatees), the villages. Very clean and perfect for our two dogs. We were extremely happy how nice the owners were and excepting our crazy little family.

Peaceful Oaks

I had a very peaceful and relaxing stay here. Resting under the majestic Live Oak trees and watching the cows and sheep graze around the pond. Fresh eggs from the chickens in the yard, can't beat that! The hosts are very friendly and helpful willing to answer any questions you have. If I ever have an occasion to go back I will definitly look them up again! Close to Williston for anything you may need. Close to lots of springs for recreation.

Exactly what I needed and the pups loved it too!

This trip was exactly what I needed! Some peace and quiet! The dogs loved all of the room to run and explore. Especially the cows and sheep that visited the fence line at least once a day. The view is big beautiful trees and a pond with cows and sheep grazing in the distance. Super quiet chickens and the fresh eggs were an excellent addition! Oh and the shower was glorious! Melissa was great and I can’t wait to go back!

Fantastic Stay

From the moment we pulled up it was just so peaceful and relaxing. We were met by Mellisa and her husband who were super friendly and so nice. It was a pleasure to come back to our little cabin and relax. We sat around a fire and just talked. We put out a blanket and looked up at the stars there is so little light pollution that the stars are brilliant and so many it was beautiful. In the morning taking a hot shower while looking up at the sky and the trees was the best. If you visit you will love it. Gary and Lisa

Peaceful serenity!

Wonderful property! I would argue the pics don’t even do it justice :) The cottage was adorable, and just what I was hoping for to get away from the city for a peaceful weekend with my husband for his birthday. Loved waking up to such a gorgeous view, and being greeted by all of the adorable animals on-site. Really enjoyed exploring Devil’s Den and the local attractions. Melissa and Gian were as nice as can be, and gave us a great rundown of the property when we arrived. The cottage and surrounding area had all of the amenities we needed for a perfect stay! We really enjoyed everything!!

Country Getaway

Beautiful days at Melissa’s country retreat. Small but everything you might need for a short visit. Very friendly owner waited for us by the entrance since we arrived after dark. We brought two pups and everyone was comfortable. Just be prepared for a simple life without a stove. We brought our toaster oven along as well as a slow cooker. Worked beautifully. Loved the shower outside under the giant oak tree. We will be back, thank you Melissa, thoroughly enjoyed the property. Thank you for the wonderful eggs. My Best , Marlene , will be back:))

A Pure Delight

I wanted to go someplace where I could sit, read a book, have a glass of wine, go somewhere or not and provide my dog with wide open spaces so she could run and remain safe. I wasn't sure exactly what that would look like until I saw this. It was perfect. It is exactly as it looks and Melissa and her husband are wonderful hosts. The kind of people you would like to have as friends. We spent a wonderful, relaxing time. Ellie, my dog, met all of the animals while running through the huge fenced area. Prior to this visit she never knew that there were animals who weren't dogs. She particularly loved the chickens. Maybe because they couldn't run away from her. The outdoor shower is very luxurious. I would love to have one in my back yard. We did go to Williston one day to eat at the Ivy House Restaurant and another day to the Cedar Lakes Woods and Gardens. Both were well worth the trip. They are very close. I will go back again if I have the opportunity. It was just what the doctor ordered so to speak. Polly Cobb Tallahassee, FL

About the host

Hosted by Melissa M Bassani

Host profile image
My husband and I visited Florida in 2019 and fell in love! We packed up our kids and animals and drove across the United States from Oregon 6 months later. The trip took us about two weeks and we met some amazing people and saw some beautiful places along the way. We were so thankful for that experience and decided to open our own vacation home in hopes to help others get that experience here in Levy County.

We love life in the country and hope we can share the relaxing side with our guests.

Why they chose this property
