Cozy cottage north of the Villages
The cottage was clean, organized, and well put together. We didn't even use the second bedroom because the one bedroom had two twins, but this cottage could easily sleep 4. The location was a little more removed that I would have liked (Ocklawaha is basically a one-stop light town), and there was some noise from being so close to Gator Joe's, but it was still a nice, quiet location.

We loved our stay at Sandy Toes! The owners gave detailed instructions before we arrived, and were responsive to my questions about checking in late, and they even left lights on for our arrival. The cottage was clean, bright, comfortable, and well organized with everything we needed. We were visiting family in Wildwood, and this location was about 20 easy min away. The beach was very close, and offered beautiful sunrises and sunsets, and even a view of rocket launches in the distance. The area was quiet, and Gator Joes had great food and entertainment options. This is a great location for any visitor coming to the area, and we look forward to returning next year.

Lovely cottage
We stayed at Sandy Toes with our 2 young adult children and their partners. While it was only a 2 bedroom, there was plenty of space for everyone to relax on the couches at the end of the day and the kids loved hanging in the bedroom together since they don't see each other as often as they like. It was like a sleepover party! It was raining so we didn't spend any time at the beach but we were there for a family reunion in the area so wouldn't have anyway The cottage is extremely well appointed and charming. We'd definitely recommend!
