10/10 Excellent

"Once again, we had a delightful stay at Leaning Oaks in Inverness. The accommodations are private and comfortable. The landscape is nothing short of gorgeous when the Azaleas are in bloom! We love the grandfather Live Oak trees bearded with Spanish Moss and adorned with Resurrection Ferns. Sunrises and sunsets are spectacular and the constantly changing wildlife around the lake engages our attention from pre-dawn to full dark. For reflection, renewal and revival of the soul, this place knows no equal. The hospitality remains gracious and welcoming. Next time we return to Central Florida, this is where we will stay. Again!"
