Farmstay vacation rentals in Marion County

Loves staying at the ranch, the staff was fantastic, as a person who grew up with horses waking up to horse hoofs at feeding time (horse a clock!) felt so nice. I was also so impressed with the care and organization of the farm, you can tell that this ranch is the top of the top! Lot’s of care and nice people. Appreciated Frank’s patience in my eagerness to meet all horses and hear about the ranch’s history. Everyone was nice and attentive, easy to find, easy to access and check in and out. The surrounding farms are fantastic and the springs of course!

Thank you so much for letting us stay unfortunately because of the storm we couldn’t be in the pool like we wanted but that wasn’t your fault! Everything else was awesome she’s a great host and will most definitely stay here again!

Griffin Ranch is delightful. Everything is vintage so don't expect the Hilton. The vintage feel makes the ranch peaceful and easy to claim as your home while you're on the road. Hosts Carl and Terry are simply wonderful folks and offer their assistance to ensure your stay is pleasurable. The grounds include vintage cabins and friendly horses and cats to greet you! I will surely return as a guest when I visit the Ocala area again! Thank you!!

Absolutely love the place. The host are the best. Love the fresh eggs and watching the chickens back to nature, but only 20 minutes to the city. If I needed something, I was only a couple of miles from this town of Fort McCoy a couple of stores and a good pizza place. Downtown Ocala was only 25 minutes away. Would definitely stay there again!!

We had an amazing time for our company annual celebration! It was the perfect venue to get all of our staff and "plus ones" together for fun and a mix of activities and relaxation. I'd recommend the property to anyone looking for a great space to enjoy your group's company. And Brantley was very helpful and friendly! Thank you!!

Always very helpful the accommodations are tremendous very quiet and peaceful Always enjoy my stay Highly recommend

The third long term stay at what I call my "tropical oasis" was just as amazing as my previous two stays. Stunning hill top views with deer, cows, horses and egrets... giant live oaks with Spanish moss dancing in the wind high in the tree tops.. banana trees.. adorable little tree frogs and lizards plus the occasional armadillo scurrying through the yard at dusk while an owl screeches from above is what you will find here. Not to mention all the other nasty bugs that call Florida home but only in the summer! This beautiful quiet very rural area is why I keep coming back. But the best part is Mark, the ever vigilant host with excellent communication always ready to address any concerns you may have. I learn so much about old FL from him and enjoy our friendly neighborly chats. The small cottage inside reminds me of an RV. But the giant screened in porch is where you want to spend most of your time. Bonus is the huge backyard that makes my big dog so happy.

This was my second time staying with James on the ranch while diving the local springs both times have been nice, quiet, peaceful, Easy check in, and private. it is definitely on my list of places to stay whenever I'm traveling in and around the Ocala area

We loved staying at Blue Sky Farms! The space was cozy and relaxing. The kitchen was stocked with just about everything you could need! We all enjoyed relaxing and eating by the pool. The beds were all very comfortable and there were plenty of towels for everyone to use. The fenced in yard was great for kids and felt very safe. We would definitely stay again!

We had the best experience! We arrived after dark the first day and was immediately greeted by the sweet dog Athena who met us at the gate and showed us back to the house. After settling in we went outside and were greeted by a pony and a large horse. Super magical setting! Dawn was really responsive and the house was clean and beautiful. We would book over and over again!

Fantastic Farm stay. Sandra was able to accommodate us with short notice. Beautiful place in the country. She even allowed us to feed carrots to the animals. Will definitely be back.

We really enjoyed our stay in this cute home. We enjoyed the quietness, peaceful surrounding and petting and feeding the farm animals. We will definitely come back!

Wonderful place in Ocala! Love the farm-feel, and the horses in the pasture. Hostess is very kind and welcoming. This was the second time we have booked this home, and we thoroughly enjoyed the stay.

I absolutely love staying in Karen’s rental units. They’re always so clean and inviting, even with pets being allowed (my pup also loves it)! I’ve already booked another trip with her and am looking forward to returning!

I was in town to ride the Santos MTB trails, Nelson’s loft was a short and easy ride to the trail head and close to the bike shop where I rented a great bike. Nelson went above and beyond, explaining the layout of the trails and the best way to ride them. Super helpful

Beautiful, super clean, including kitchen, bathrooms, bedding & linens. Plenty of wood/lighter fluid for fire pit. Treats in kitchen, keurig machine & plenty of pods & and a bag of ice in freezer. Rich was helpful whenever we had a question. Heat & air conditioner work really fast. Good Tefal egg pan & slow cooker in kitchen. Lots of dishes.

The "Cottage" was a great place stay. The owners are very nice & personable. This place is set up very nicely for your pets. We will definitely stay here again on future trips.

As a horse person - I figured I would really enjoy staying at a horse farm. Some may think a horse farm cottage would be too rustic or smell like horses… not this place! Absolutely gorgeous interior design with everything that I would need for my stay. Very clean & comfy! The kitchen is nicer than the one I have in my house and I was really sad that I had to leave. The views of the horses in their paddocks really added to my love for this property. I whole heartedly recommend this cottage for horse & non-horse lovers 😊😊😊

Kate’s home located on a beautiful farm was the perfect, peaceful retreat for our ladies retreat weekend! We enjoyed waking to birdsong each morning and relaxing on the front porch. The kitchen was well stocked and we were able to cook some meals there, as well. There was plenty to do, with a variety of books, puzzles, and TV available to enjoy and relax with, and plenty of farm animals that captured our attention. Check in and check out were very simple and easy, so we could begin enjoying the weekend as quickly as possible. We all agreed we would happily return to this Airbnb for our next retreat!

Great stay and the camper was easy to get in and out of so we could do the things we wanted

I was thrilled to find Louise's listing available for a return visit. Her offering is top notch, a home away from home with extras (chickens and goats to love on!). She and Michelle are excellent hosts - friendly, generous, respectful of privacy. Misty Morning Acres was the perfect place for me to gather with local relatives and it served very well as a home base while visiting other family in the Panhandle. In every category, 5 stars just isn't enough of a positive rating! This is an excellent value and a prime location for all Central Florida has to offer.

Steve was a wonderful host and his place is just amazing! The area is so picturesque - gorgeous, peaceful horse farms everywhere. The apartment was immaculate and so well-appointed. Very spacious with room to unpack and truly feel right at home. I loved the double closets in the bedroom which allowed more than enough room to unpack everything and lovely spacious bathroom (double vanities) also with great closet and storage space. The kitchen was perfect, finished with everything you might need, and the living room area was comfortable, homey and nicely decorated. I really appreciated all the special touches, lighting, amenities that made it so easy to settle in. My dog and I loved walking the property and surrounding area every day. Steve was so helpful and accommodating as I extended my stay twice and he went out of his way to be helpful. HIGHLY RECOMMEND - it's a dream spot!

Perfect location from 1-75, local horse farms and back roads to SR200. Clean place. Even thou Sherri was there you never heard her, very peaceful, a good night sleep.

Carrie’s place was in a great location between HITS and WEC horse show facilities. Easy communication and responsive to questions. Peaceful setting for the winter months.
