Amazing host, stunning property, and a truly special place. Peaceful pastures, oak trees draped in Spanish moss, and a warm, beautifully laid-out home. There’s a really special energy here- it felt like magic. Highly recommend.

We would stay here again absolutely. Loved my neighbors, (the cows) to enjoy my morning coffee with. Beautiful home, had everything we needed. Rich was very helpful always, great communication. Coming in late at night was an experience, gps got a little bit confused, but we loved the adventure. Once on the property everyone was very comfortable. Thank you Rich

Rich was a very welcoming and attentive host! He was available to answer any and all questions and has put a lot of attention and care into the ranch. The home was extremely clean and comfortable. The surroundings are beautiful and make for a true feeling of “getting away” while only being a short drive from major cities.

My stay at Majestic Meadows was nothing short of spectacular! Rich is an exceptional host who made our experience truly unforgettable. From the moment we arrived, the beauty of this ranch took our breath away. Rich was incredibly welcoming and attentive, ensuring every detail was perfect. The ranch itself is amazing—spacious, impeccably clean, and equipped with everything you need for a relaxing getaway. The serene surroundings made it easy to unwind, whether we were stargazing at night or taking an outdoor refreshing shower. I can’t recommend Majestic Meadows and Rich enough! If you’re looking for a peaceful escape in a beautiful setting, this is the place to book. 🌟 5/5 stars!

If you’re looking for a family friendly peaceful getaway, this is the place. We spent Mother’s Day weekend there and we all loved it. We bbq’d, plays games and had a blast. The backyard and animal watching was super fun, the girls loved it. Not to mention, Richard is an amazing host and very friendly.

My family stayed at the home over UF graduation weekend. Conveniently located about 35 minutes outside of Gainesville. Peaceful, relaxed setting with a great floor plan for a family of 8. Home was clean and well-kept. Rich was proactive and always responsive. I would highly recommend to any family traveling to the area (including Gainesville). And we loved the cows ❤️
