From the moment I arrived, I was impressed by the warm and inviting atmosphere you have created.The accommodations were impeccable, with every detail thoughtfully considered to ensure comfort and convenience. The cleanliness and organization of the space made it feel like a true home away from home. I particularly appreciated the tasteful décor, which added a touch of elegance and charm to the experience.Your hospitality went above and beyond my expectations. The welcome amenities such as the screened lanai, the screened pool area, and the spacious gas grill were delightful and contributed to making my stay even more enjoyable.The property is well-kept, quiet, and has regular wildlife sightings. Sandhill Cranes, gopher tortoises, armadillos, and Cattle Egrets were observed along with cows in the pasture. The sunrises and sunsets are notable features.I also want to commend you for your attentiveness and prompt communication throughout my visit. It was reassuring to know that you were always available to assist with any questions or concerns.In summary, my stay at your home was exceptional, and I will certainly be recommending it to friends and family.

Summary: Such a beautiful spot, worth it just for the experience to stay in such an amazing place. Enjoyed walking around the property and exploring the surrounding area. Ms. Myra is a very interesting lady (seriously someone should write a book) and went out of her way to make us feel at home. The screened in porch is a great place to relax and everything about the place is well done. You will not be disappointed to stay here.

Summary: We truly had the most marvelous stay at Ms Myra’s!My husband and I, along with my parents and their traveling friends, stayed in the lower portion of her house for an entire week.The home is magnificent and offered us an assortment of fun activities such as walking the pastures to the lake and trees, having a nice fire under the pergola, cooling down and enjoying the screened in porch for meals, coffee and games.The beds were perfect and the kitchen & bathrooms were spotless as were all the floors and surfaces.This was one of the most unique VRBO experiences I’ve had and I am so glad to have been able to share with my parents.Ms Myra Tucker is such a wonderful host. We have all made a new connection and feel blessed to have met her. She will always have a special place in our hearts and we will definitely be back to stay again.

Summary: There is probably no better place to stay in central Florida. You'll fall in Love with not only the location and accomidations but with Ms. Myra herself the owner of the property. We loved the spaciousness of the living space with the ample bedrooms and bathrooms. We were so lucky to use the place when we did as it was all decorated for Christmas. Really added to the festiveness for our gathering of family members. I can't say enough good about Ms. Myra! She will make sure your visit is memorable. 10 Star
