House was clean but had a dog smell. Not sure if it was in the furniture or the wood floor. Had a little salamander? In the back room by the laundry. Furnishings and kitchen items were all adequate.

This private bungalow is cozy yet spacious, and conveniently located between Ocala and Gainesville--with everything you need for a quick getaway or quiet retreat. Owners were responsive and welcoming. Super friendly locals. Be aware that some of the surrounding shops and restaurants tend to be closed early in the week (eg Mon-Wed), limiting your options.

We enjoyed our stay at the Palmerto Cottage. It was a cozy little cabin. It was clean and had everything we needed. The only trouble we had was getting the Televisions to work in both bedrooms. There was a large selection of DVDs to choose from, It would also have been nice to have a throw blanket on the sofa. We would stay there again if we were to return to Micanopy.

Great location to see area sites without the congestion!

This is a cute and comfortable little cottage away from city congestion with a couple restaurans nearby. It is a great location for Gainesville area site seeing and visiting with your college kids.
