“Relax & Recharge in a Private Countryside Cottage with Fire Pit, Laundry, & Gym
Escape to this peaceful country retreat surrounded by open skies, rolling pastures, and the timeless charm of a vintage horse ranch. This cozy, private cottage offers the perfect balance of rustic character and modern comfort — ideal for guests seeking serenity, inspiration, or a refreshing change of pace.
Wake up to the gentle sounds of nature and enjoy your morning coffee on the porch as horses graze nearby. Spend your days exploring the property’s rich ranching history, watching the animals, or simply relaxing beneath wide Florida skies. In the evenings, unwind by the outdoor fire pit and take in the stars — far from city lights, yet close enough to town for convenience. IF YOU RIDE, HORSES ARE WELCOME!
ONLY A 10-MINUTE DRIVE TO THE FLORIDA STRAWBERRY FESTIVAL! Enjoy the local charm, food, and festivities that Plant City is famous for — then return to your quiet countryside escape.
Inside, you’ll find a bright, welcoming space with everything you need for a comfortable stay:
A fully equipped kitchen stocked with essentials
A cozy living area for reading, streaming, or lounging
A laundry room, perfect for extended visits
Fitness equipment on-site to help you stay active during your stay
In addition to the cottage, the property features a four-stall garage with a beautifully finished in-law suite, offering extra space and privacy for guests, family, or friends traveling together.
This countryside getaway is perfect for a romantic weekend, a quiet solo retreat, or a peaceful remote-work escape. The surrounding horses and friendly ranch animals add a truly unique touch — a rare opportunity to experience life on a working ranch while enjoying the privacy of your own accommodations.
Relax, recharge, and discover the simple beauty of country living — your private escape awaits. Due to our most recent Hurricane, we've have on-going repairs to the stables, in-law suite, and Gym but are working as fast as we can to bring an even better experience for you!
The cottage is air-conditioned and features a kitchen and a balcony, and there's space to spread out with 2 bedrooms. Other standard amenities include a washing machine and a fireplace.
