We have stayed here once before 2 years ago. It was another great stay. Home is clean and comfortable. If you are someone who likes to sleep in I suggest bringing an eye mask as the bedroom gets full sun in the morning and there are no black out curtains.

Marilyn's place was the perfect location to Lake Sumter and Spanish Springs on the golf cart that was provided. The house was clean the kitchen was stocked with everything you would need (but we really didnt use it). If you forgot something the house was sure to have it. Very quiet neighborhood we hardly seen anyone around. The only complaint I have was the bed was to hard for our liking.. We both would wake up with back aches (or my whold body) and slept out on couches our last 2 nights. Mark was a good host with answering questions i had before arrival to checking in with us during our stay. Definitely recommend Marilyn's place for your stay!

My husband and I stayed 4 nights while we checked out The Villages. This house was exactly as described and had every little thing we could have needed! Mark answered all our questions quickly, and even arranged guest passes for us. Golf cart was a great bonus!

Great place to stay. Very quiet and perfect for 2 people. Golf cart was a huge plus and used multiple times to drive to Spanish springs and Lake Sumter Landing. We couldn't have asked for anything better. It was a very clean, comfortable and affordable place to stay. Thanks to our great host Mark. We will definitely be returning for out next trip there.

I had such a lovely time at Marilyn's place! I just wanted to say thank you for everything - from the calming music that greeted me when I arrived to the delightful surprise of M&Ms whenever I wanted and the super comfy bed. The place is so clean, and I felt so relaxed there. Thanks again for a wonderful stay!

Great House in Quiet Neighborhood
Marilyn’s was perfect for our stay. It was a good location for our visit with family and friends. The house was the right size for the two of us and had just what we needed - basic kitchen, washer and dryer, and large umbrellas for the Florida afternoon rain. The property was clean with a nice screened porch and the neighborhood was quiet so we slept well at night. I would definitely stay at Marilyn’s again!

Marilyn’s
My wife and l cannot say enough about the great experience we had on our 10 day visit at Marilyn’s. Owner Mark and his wife Tiffany were extremely accommodating and friendly.
The house on Montoya street was very, very clean, comfortable and such a great location in Lady Lake between Sumpter Lake and Spanish Springs where shopping and Restaurants are easily accessible.
You will ABSOLUTELY NOT BE disappointed in the whole experience. We will definitely return for other future visits.

Overall very good!
House was very clean. Some shampoo… some soap and toothpaste supplied. Kitchen supplies…condiments , clothes detergent, toilet paper… you will need to buy.
For any home in Villages… it would be good to better understand the golf cart paths… give more instruction. We used the maps app on our phone and put in for 🚲 since carts and bike paths are shared in The Villages. It took a a day or two to figure that out… not all roads are golf cart friendly.
Mark was great about switching out the bikes since we were having issues with the 2 that were there.
Overall… a good stay… we would prefer 2 twin beds… rather than one double… but many may not feel the same.
