About this property

This cozy country cottage located on my 40 acre ranch is the perfect place to recharge completely. When you enter my ranch the long driveway lined with a split rail fence take you over my wooden bridge and guide you to your sanctuary. You will be surrounded by Live Oaks as you sit and have coffee on the quaint front porch, or in the evening enjoy your wine and cocktails with the backdrop of the gorgeous setting sun. At night you can sit by the campfire and roast marshmallows with the provided sticks. I will be happy to start the fire for you. I don’t have horses, but their are cows grazing in the front pasture.

This rental also offers an impressive outdoor kitchen with a hammock, charcoal barbecue, stove, refrigerator, dart board and a big wooden table with a lazy Susan. This is a 1/1 with a king sized bed. It’s meant for two people but the couch does have two comfortable recliners and there is a twin sized blow up mattress available.

Both the outdoor kitchen and the cottage have a full set of dishes and cookware. I provide the coffee, water, and a limited amount of snacks. There are two televisions in the cottage as well as laundry facilities. The cottage seats two for dinner but the outdoor kitchen seats 10. There are board games and cards available if you want to have some good ole fashion fun.

I am a wildlife rehabber so don’t be surprised if Goldie Fawn comes to visit you. I mostly rescue raccoons, but you will not see them unless you want to meet them. My ranch home is located far from yours and we can’t see each other. You will have your privacy but I will be available to answer your questions.

Please view the photos as they speak for themselves. I have stalls available for an extra fee if you are traveling with horses. There is a pond by my house that has Tilapia, Catfish, Brim, and small Bass. You are welcome to fish, just give me a heads up.

I only allow small dogs to run free and I allow larger dogs on a leash. These restrictions are due to my rescue endeavors and the safety of my releases. I have two dogs. but I know they are good with the babies since they helped raise them. I look forward to speaking with you via text or in person. Come and enjoy “The King Ranch”!

Zero Communication

I was very excited to stay in this cottage and fish in the pond on the property. The cottage is cute, clean, comfortable and well appointed like everyone says. I used both the outdoor kitchen and fire pit. The tame deer were amazing and the border collie very sweet. Also enjoyed watching the cows. Very peaceful. My issues involve communication. I reached out to Beverly via VRBO the week before my stay to let her know (as requested) I’d like to fish in her pond. I never got a response. When I arrived at the cottage I found it unlocked. I went in, connected to WiFi and texted Beverly to let her know I was there. No response. I texted 45 minutes later and said I was running out for supplies. No response. When I returned she was out in the yard and gave a half hearted wave. I figured for sure she’d come introduce herself while I was unloading. Nope. I felt awkward at this point. The next morning I tried calling twice and couldn’t get through. I also sent another text. No response. I’d come to fish in the pond, which by the way is on the other side of Beverly’s house and not even visible from the cottage, and didn’t feel comfortable fishing outside someone’s house where I wasn’t welcome. I found other places to fish. I left this morning, and this afternoon got a text from Beverly saying sorry, her phone’s been down. If that was the case, why not stop by to meet me, leave a note, respond to email or send smoke signals? I would’ve loved to have the same experience as others.

Absolutely peaceful

This beautiful place is old time Florida. Majestic Oaks with tons of Spanish Moss, hearing owls in the evening, feeding the deer, talking to the cows, I was in heaven. House was perfect for my daughter and I. If you need a break from life, this is it.

A serene getaway

What a perfect escape. I spent 4 nights and was just what I needed to disconnect from the hectic routine of day-to-day in Miami. Accommodations were comfortable (bed was magnificent), clean, and well appointed. The environment was perfect for enjoying solitude. My little dog loved it, and actually made a friend with Riley. I can't wait to return.

I am a native Floridian. For many years, I have grown more and more discouraged at the out-of-control growth in our state. Our visit to the King Ranch filled me with joy to see that “old Florida” still exists in some places! The cottage is lovely. It is immaculate and very comfortable, especially the dual seats reclining couch and the large bed! We so appreciated the snacks, bottled water, and Keurig coffee available for us upon our arrival. We really enjoyed looking at the photo books of Beverly’s rescue animals. While we did not utilize the outdoor kitchen, it is an amazing space, and given the opportunity to return, we would definitely take advantage of it. The property is lovely. What a delight to have four deer sleeping in the yard a short distance from our front door! We also enjoyed sitting on the front porch and watching all of the raccoons enjoy their dinner! It made our hearts happy to be in a place that is so wonderfully cared for by a person who clearly has a nurturing spirit for God’s creatures! If you are looking for a beautiful example of “old Florida”, a quiet, peaceful retreat, I highly recommend Beverly’s cottage!
