Quiet furnished short-term stays • Couples-friendly • Pet-friendly options • Easy highway access

Back to Rentals Hub Things To Do Restaurants

If your closing date moved, your move-in got delayed, or your new build isn’t ready yet, a hotel can feel stressful fast. Our furnished short-term rentals offer a calmer “in-between” option — comfortable, private, and designed for real living.

These stays work well for buyers waiting to close, families between homes, and anyone needing temporary housing in Central Florida for a few nights, a week, or longer.

A Better Alternative to Hotels During a Closing Delay

  • Furnished & move-in ready for short stays or longer gaps
  • Private space (not a crowded hallway hotel setup)
  • Kitchen access in select stays for normal meals
  • Easy parking — helpful when you have packed vehicles
  • Pet-friendly options so you don’t have to board your dog
  • Quiet setting — restful while you handle the logistics

Many guests tell us this kind of stay feels like a deep exhale while they wait for keys, inspections, or final paperwork.

Best For

  • Buyers waiting to close on a home
  • New construction delays and shifting completion dates
  • Move-in gaps between leases
  • People relocating for work and house hunting
  • Couples who want privacy instead of a hotel
  • Guests traveling with pets (select approval)

Convenient Access Without the Hotel Noise

Our rentals are positioned for easy access to major routes, making them convenient for showings, inspections, meetings, and quick drives to nearby towns — while still providing a quieter place to rest.

  • Fast access to major highways for appointments and errands
  • Easy to come and go while coordinating closing details
  • Comfortable for short stays or longer temporary housing needs

(Inside your rentals hub, guests can choose the stay that fits their yard needs, space, and length of stay.)

The Sheep Ate My Garden (And Honestly… I’m Not Even Mad)

🐑 The Sheep Took Over the Garden (And Honestly… I’m Not Even Mad) Well… the sheep won. At some point recently, my sweet little flock decided that my garden was actually their garden — and they completely cleaned it out. Every. Single. Plant. I walked outside expecting to check on winter growth and instead found what can only be described as a very efficient landscaping crew. Not a leaf left behind. Not even a stem. They were standing there looking at me like, “You’re welcome.” 🌿 Sheep: 1 Dana’s Garden: 0 This is real farm life here in Coleman, Florida . No filters. No Pinterest-perfect rows. Just sheep with big appetites and absolutely no respect for fencing boundaries. Honestly though, this is part of what makes staying at Dana’s Florida Getaways so different from a regular hotel near The Villages. It’s peaceful, yes — but it’s also real life on a small farm. Sometimes that includes baby sheep. Sometimes it includes surprise garden demolition. 🌸 The Unexpect...

Marlene & Darlene Join the Farm + Dolly Turns One! 🐑

Image
Last week we welcomed two sweet baby girls to our little farm in Coleman, Florida — Marlene and Darlene. They were born to their mama, Beulah, who has once again proven to be the most patient and gentle mother. Both lambs are healthy, curious, and already starting to explore their surroundings (while staying close to mom, of course). If you’re staying with us soon, you may be able to see Marlene and Darlene during a scheduled animal visit. But that’s not the only celebration happening on the farm… Dolly Turns One 🎉 Beulah’s first lamb, Dolly, just celebrated her first birthday! It’s hard to believe how quickly a year goes by. Guests who visited last spring may remember her as the tiny lamb bouncing around the pasture. Now she’s grown, confident, and often found keeping an eye on her new little sisters. And of course, we can’t forget Sampson — our ram and proud dad — who lives in a separate pen on the property. What Guests Can Expect Right Now If you’re planning a stay at one of our Co...

⭐ “Guest Review: Stress Melts Away at Our Peaceful Farm Cottage”

Image
  Guest Review: A Peaceful Farm Cottage Stay That Melted Stress Away One of the sweetest parts of hosting at Dana’s Florida Getaways is hearing how guests truly feel during their stay. Recently, a lovely guest named Ruth stayed at our peaceful farm cottage for a short weekend visit to spend time with her daughter and granddaughters who live nearby. What she shared afterward perfectly describes the experience many guests are searching for when they choose a quiet country vacation rental. A Relaxing Farm Stay Near Family Visits Ruth mentioned that our cozy cottage worked out perfectly for their visit. While the stay was short, the peaceful atmosphere made a lasting impression. Guests often tell us they are surprised by how quickly they begin to unwind once they arrive. Even though the cottage sits on our property, it is thoughtfully set back and surrounded by greenery and privacy landscaping. Many guests say it feels like stepping into their own private oasis.
