Doesn’t get much better than this
My trips to the area have become more frequent and this time I chose a more rural location to decompress after long days. This place is amazing. Keri greeted me as I was arriving and gave me directions for everything I needed to know. The place is very welcoming with sunny Florida colors and more room than I expected. A full kitchen, bathroom, good sized living room plus a relaxing bedroom.Everyone is different but the bed is one of the most comfortable I’ve slept on. The animals helped me unwind when I was able to sit outside and watch the chickens just do their thing. They do like to follow cars I noticed! There was nothing additional that I needed, they’ve thought of everything. It’s out a little way but so worth the peace and quiet vs staying in the villages and all of the driveway drinking.

Peaceful and Convenient location
This was a quiet, peaceful place for us to stay and very convenient to the Villages amenities. The hosts were very friendly and we had everything we needed. It is also a very good choice for budget. How nice not to have to deal with all the negatives of a hotel!

Lovely Setting
Our stay at this VRBO was perfect. Clean and comfortable, with a bonus of seeing horses, goats, and chickens. Kerri was pleasant and more than happy to answer any questions we had. Accommodations were everything we would need. We are definitely staying here again when visiting our son and daughter in law.

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.

A perfect restful stay
This was the perfect restful place to stay. The accommodation is huge and is in an ultra quiet neighbourhood. There is a full kitchen with everything needed to self cater, plenty of hot water and towels in the bathroom, and a comfortable bedroom. There’s also a desk for working at with a nice view from the window. We would definitely come back again, and wish this had been a longer trip. Thank you Kerry.

. Miscommunication on my part but Kerri made it all good. Loves the area and was extremely close the the Gypsy Gold horse farm for our tour the next morning. The place was great except for maybe needing a bathroom remodel! Thanks for your understanding Kerri

Peaceful retreat
We spent one night on this property that provided everything we needed, plus a tranquil, and secure location to relax. The community is in a country setting, with many owners having horses, and the property has a secure gate, that is easy to use when first entering, and clear instructions about future use. The house is attached, however, nicely done, with everything as described. We enjoyed talking to Keri about the horses and other animals. The nearest town with restaurants and grocery stores, only 5-10 minutes depending on which direction you choose. Highly recommend as a getaway!
