The hosts Rusty and Alexandra were helpful when we locked the keys in the house. Rusty was there within 5 mins to let us in. There is not one thing I can complain about!

Once during Christmas and 2 weeks ago for our Florida Springs vacation. This is such a gorgeous neighborhood. The cottage itself is a charming old house refurbished yet maintains the Old Florida vibe. Orange Lake is at the end of the road. Irises and Sand Hill cranes freely walk through the yards with lush vegetation, heritage oaks and Spanish Moss and turn of he Century homes and churches. Central to everywhere we planned to visit...My sisters horse farm in Williston, UF Museum of Natural History in Gainesville, Rainbow Springs, Silver Springs and much more. Best vacation I've had in a long time. Will be returning again and again. Owners are great too! ##### Vanessa M.
