Events:
Interested in holding an event in this sanctuary?! We have had many 
wedding events = 200 person and the feedback has been great! Umbrella seating provided in the tame lawn area with wine tables strewn across the
catwalks, walkways and decks while music from the outside deck
speakers provided that extra special touch. All this while
visitors are constantly surrounded by the natural raw beauty of
Florida.
Florida flora and fauna:
A wetlands Cypress stand adjacent to an oak and palmetto hammock
thrives in the moderate Central Florida weather providing an ideal
habitat for a large cross-section of Florida flora and fauna.
You will hear the owls hooting and the frogs croaking while lounging
on the deck and enjoy filling the feeder to study the black capped
chickadees, red red cardinals, our beloved titmouse and many
others. Both the red shouldered and red tailed hawks frequent the
fields nearby. The graceful stork and demanding osprey are frequent
visitors to the property while the herons and egret fish in the
creek overlooked by the lower deck. On very special days we have
had otters feast in our creek! Many other wildlife sightings are
possible -- but not predictable!

traveler reviews for this dade city villa rental

One of those vacations you remember forever!

shine (metairie la)
Review submitted: April 14, 2011   Date of arrival: April 14, 2010

My husband and I stayed here several years ago and it was one of the best vacations Ive ever been on. Bring your dogs and stay for a week a least! You will be a new person. The house is beautiful and clean and the property is on a stream that you can kayak down (they have boats for you) The hot tub is on the upstairs deck and all you can see from it is the bird sanctuary. Same view from the OPEN DOUBLE SHOWER with the glass wall overlooking the stream. Everywhere you turn, beauty. Thinking about it while I type this has me ACHING to go back.

Recommended for: adventure seekers, families with teenagers, girls getaway, pet-friendly, romantic getaway
