Monthly Rentals in Saddle Bag Lake

Thanks for hosting us! Please keep Cottontail Manor in mind, if ever in Jacksonville! Natalie & Anthony

We were traveling for a wedding at Tavares on the Lake and this place was 2 minutes from the venue. At first glance when we arrived the space felt very homey. The house looks like a doll house and is very well taken care of. Emilie was very thoughtful and even left us a little surprises. The area was very quiet and peaceful which added to the homey feeling. The instructions and rules for checking in were extremely clear and made our experience much more enjoyable. Cleanliness was super and our overall experience was better than what we have expected. This was my first experience renting an Airbnb and I am so grateful that we encountered a host as thoughtful, clean, friendly, who went above and beyond to make sure we had a great experience. 1000% recommended and I would definitely come back to her place in the future.

It was a great experience. Tim and Glenda were so nice and very helpful. Our plane landed 4 hours late and they were excellent at making sure we could find the place and left the lights on so we would not have to navigate in the dark. It is very peaceful and quiet, which is just what we wanted. I loved the recommendations for places to see and eat. The homemade muffins and personalized thank you card were so sweet. A great experience!

Sapphire Cottage is the perfect getaway, tucked back off a quiet road , and an 20 minute drive to Mount Dora, making it both peaceful and accessible to town. A canal runs behind the property and there are 2 kayaks you can use if you’re feeling adventurous, if not, you can just hang out and watch the happy hens roam the property or pet the goats in their enclosure. The cottage is really quite lovely, very comfortable, modern yet cozy feeling at the same time. Miriam and Ismael obviously put a lot of thought into its design and decor. The rooms are spacious, the cottage is spotless, and everything works as it should. Miriam and Ismael are the perfect hosts, available yet unobtrusive. I would go back in a heartbeat, and can recommend it without hesitation.
