If you want to simplify and be inspired by nature this is the place to do it. The old Florida cracker style house was recently renovated and has the "Cross Creek" feeling. If you need to escape the complicated life there is a peace at "Grace Cottage Retreat" where you can return to your inmost being, recharge and glean inspiration to create your book, song or painting. "Grace" is within easy walking distance of De Leon Springs State Park. There is good energy from the springs. Also, there are many other opportunities to cycle, canoe, kayak and hike at various nearby parks. Deland is 7 miles away and offers lots of culture via museums, good food and music. "Grace" is also within an hour's drive to the beach or to Orlando. It's the perfect hub from which one can experience the diversity of Florida. There is one "master" bedroom with a queen bed that comfortably sleeps 2. Then there is a twin bed on the enclosed sleeping porch at the front of the home. Then there is a den with TV and loveseat. A foldout floor mattress is stored in the closet for the occasional 4th guest. There is one bathroom with walkin shower; that being said the home is best suited for a couple or 3 people at the most. "Grace" has a fenced in spacious back yard and is pet friendly. The train runs behind the property so you will occasionally hear the whistle and rumbling. My grandparents lived in a southern railroad town so this is nostalgic and enjoyable to me along with many guests at Grace. There is a front deck and back deck for relaxing outdoors.
