Vacation Rental Description

Snuggled deep in the Osceola Forest amongst the Ponderosa Pines, about
ten miles east of Lake City, Florida, sits Sharon's Cabin In The Woods.
Nothing fancy, rustic to some, it invites the weary traveler to get
away from the rest of the crowd, kick off their shoes and rest a while..
This 2 bedroom, 2 bath cedar cabin comes fully furnished, including;
all furniture, kitchen pots, pans, dishes, microwave, linens, sheets,
towels. All you need to bring is your clothes. Also has TV with 
Digital Satelite Service, DVD Player, Phone with local service
only-most cell phones do not work in forest, so need calling card for
long-distance.
It has sleeping accommodations for up to 4 people, with 1 queen bed,
and 1 trundle bed (A trundle is a twin that has a mattress underneath
that pulls out to sleep 2.)
It's located deep in what is known as Osceola Estates, a small country
community of about 45 homes that sit in a niche that is carved out of
the Osceola National Forest. See map here.
