My family and I have stayed in a number of rentals over the years, and though we understand there aren't too many options when renting in this part of Florida, we did not feel this cabin was worth the price. The kitchen was not the most well-equipped and the refrigerator made a lot of noise throughout the night. We were thankful to be close to the lake, which is why we selected the cabin, but we felt it was overpriced.

Went for OHV trail riding and had a great time. Property location had decent road access for my 18' trailer and I could park it completely within the property fence and close the gate with it hooked to the tow vehicle. I did not see lake access but also did not go looking for it. It is a lower level rental where the owner stays upstairs but it was easy to forget they were there as it was quiet and relaxing. Neighbors were very polite when I got a bit lost due to bad Google directions (do not go straight at the signs, turn right instead). Good place for a single rider or couple to stay for OHV riding. Don't miss the opportunity to go to Odd Todd's if you're in the area. Some of the best food around.

Juanita’s Cabin

The stay was okay. Nick was nice and helpful. The main issue is that we couldn’t find the place. If it weren’t for some very kind people that lived off the main road, we would have abandoned our stay. There was no cell service so we lost our ability to use GPS and we couldn’t message the host to get better directions. The road leading up bro the area is supposed to be 199th Place, but the road sign says 108th Place. There is no sign for 199th place. Because of this, and how bad maneuverability was (we were towing a boat), I would not stay again.

Rural Experience

Erika and Nick are very accommodating hosts. Rental is nice. This is a very rural experience so make sure that is what you are looking for. Road in is dirt and very rough. Which was fine for us. Note: there is no pool as stated.

Rustic Rural Cabin

We had a good stay! Host was very nice and helpful when we had a need. Cabin is off the beaten path. If you cannot live without Verizon cell service, this would not be an area for you. Host does offer WiFi at the cabin. There’s a river within walking distance if you like to do a little fishing. If you plan on swimming in the pool, I recommend double checking with the host to make sure it is open for use. Same with the hot tub. Charcoal grill available for guest use.

Deep in the Florida woods

The husband & I do not care for the big cities & towns. So Jaunita’s Cabin was just right. It’s cozy. It’s comfortable. It’s delightful.It’s right close to the Ocklawaha River which is awesome.Salt Springs just down the road. Fabulous.If you want city-like conveniences and attractions, choose elsewhere. But if you want the peace & quiet of the Florida woods this is a lovely spot. We stayed for the month of November 2024. Loved it.Oh and the pet chickens were a sweet surprise.Nick & Erika were excellent hosts.For us, it was thoroughly delightful.

Pretty cozy cabin

I couldn’t have found better place in Ocala to stay than this pretty, comfortable and cozy cabin. The place in pretty near to downtown and the Springs which is very convenient, it literally took us around 15-30 minutes to each place to visit, it depends. What I suggest is if you go to restaurant or dinner make plans early, since places close kind of early. My boyfriend end I had an excellent time, we even enjoyed the campfire that the owner made for us at night, it was awesome to have sometime enjoying the sky at night, we really enjoyed it. The place also has a nice jacuzzi that we could use for free, and they provided a lot of information about the city, in addition they provide boat tours at very reasonable prices. I would love to go back very soon. Thanks Erika and Nick for providing such great service,‘helpful info and advice to us.

Peaceful and pretty

The property was very nice and peacful. If you are looking to get away from the everyday rush in this world, this would be the right spot. My husband and I enjoyed our stay very much. There was an incident that was out of everyones control, but the property owners handled it well. Nick and Erika were wonderful hosts. They even brought us some bread pudding from a restaurant they had visited (they did invite us to come along but my hubby and I were pooped). It was a vacation we will not forget. Thank you, Nick and Erika! 🙂

Perfect to reconnect with nature

The property is quaint and off the beaten track. The property owners treated us like family; we could not have asked for a more enjoyable trip. If you’re looking for shopping and spas, etc. The property is about a half hour from town, so this is might not be the place for you. It’s exactly what we were looking for though.

We didn't enjoy the location, too remote for what we expected via photos. The pool was not in condition for entering, the rooms smelled old and musky. The vinyl flooring was mismatched as was the interior design. The host was extremely nice and cooperative with offering a partial refund

Cozy Remote Getaway Near Ocala Natl Forest

My woman and I had a wonderful time here. The host was very accommodating and the interior was thoroughly clean and inviting. The road to get to the property itself is in dire need of maintenance, but that’s nothing to do with the property itself. The one critique is the pool; it was dirty (had to clean it myself) and there were electrical outlets & wires running by the steps into the pool. That aside, we had no complaints and only praise.
