Good Times on Phlox Pond
This is a charming place with a wilderness feel. You will receive unmatched refreshment and peace in this quiet spot. Pull a chair to the dock and enjoy gorgeous sunrises and ethereal sunsets. Take the canoe that is provided for a ride around the pond and check out the abundant lily pads or fish for bass. Didn’t see any gators, but surely there are a few around. There is a very nice fire pit in the yard and plenty of space for parking. The house is a bit rough around the edges, but it has air conditioning, hot water for showers, stove, refrigerator, microwave, and plenty of towels and linens. The host is also very responsive. There is a laundromat in nearby Madison as well as groceries and restaurants. We had a very nice time and would definitely recommend to anyone who wants to get away from the hustle of life.

Best VRBO Ever!!!
Ginger the Vizsla: “I got to run freely! My Mommy only said “no” when I ran 40mph on the dock. She must have forgot stopping on a dime is one of my super powers. I also heard her say Lisa was the best! I think we’re coming back and I hope it’s soon!

Restful Quiet
If your looking for peace and quiet this is the place. The home is out of town and in the woods. Nothing but you, trees and a lake. The home is fully stocked with bedding options, bathing amenities, kitchen ware and multiple tv watching options. The owner is very friendly and quick to respond to messages. This home is definitely worth the money.

Floridian Heaven
As a life long Floridian, it is a wonderful place to escape from an overcrowded Florida ... This reminds me of old Florida! Lisa is a awesome host! 3rd year back! If you are looking for amenities and frills then seek a resort elsewhere! If you are looking for peace, quiet and zen then ... You found the place!
