Loved it. The only thing I would change is the air freshener was over bearing we turned them off and opened windows. I guess it’s a matter of what people like. We had a nice time. Animals and property is awesome

Business get away

We had a good stay at the Shebean. It was an easy drive from it to the several places we had to work with. Our primary reason for booking it was our dogs. They were comfortable even though they were out of place.

Wedding stay

We booked the Shebeen for the week of our wedding and could not have been more pleased with our stay. We were instantly treated like family. Any questions we had were answered quickly and the hospitality seemed neverending. This was our first experience outside of hotel stays and we are hooked after this experience. For a weekend getaway or a long stay I highly recommend you give the Shebeen a stay.

A very welcoming atmosphere. Clean, comfortable & cozy.

We loved our stay at the cottage. We arrived late in the day and when we walked in it was like a little honeymoon cottage with the wonderful smells, the music softly playing and the bedroom dimly lit with the towels folded just perfect on the bed and the little chocolates on top. The sounds of the farm took us both back to our childhood and the quiet evenings on the porch were just wonderful. We love this area because we motorcycle and those country roads are amazing! Mark & Oksana are wonderful hosts and made sure we had everything we needed. We will definitely stay again in the future! Thank you for making us feel so at home.

Farm country fabulous!

We very much enjoyed our stay at the little Irish cottage / farm! The cottage was as described. Little, but plenty big enough for a couple or small family, cute and well appointed for our needs! It has a kitchenette (itoaster oven, microwave, fry pan, small fridge-only-& basic dishes) perfect for our quick getaway! We biked the Withlacoochee State Trail and then relaxed in the serenity of the cabin/ country atmosphere - playing games, reading &’watching movies! The cabin is WiFi equipped! In the morning - we got to participate in the morning chore routine! So much fun and educational! We learned a lot from our knowledgeable and very friendly hosts!! We especially loved feeding the calves and gathering chicken eggs (which we got to enjoy!!)!! We came away from a quick overnight adventure feeing refreshed and with some pretty cool memories!

We loved our short stay at the Irish Farm Cottage, with Weeki Wachee just around the corner and local breweries and small mom and pop restaurants it was a great getaway from our everyday work lives. We look forward to coming back again soon!

Small relaxing getaway

Nice one bedroom cottage. Perfect for a couple. Quiet, secluded and private. Only draw back was that we like to cook, and didn’t realize there was not a stove. Just an electric frying pan, microwave and a toaster oven. The fridge was also a tiny dorm fridge. If you are just doing coffee and toast it’s perfect. If you are going to cook a big breakfast to start the day, you may need to adjust your cooking ways. Overall nice stay.

Total relaxation

Once again we had the pleasure of staying at your working Florida farm. The Shebean is not only beautiful but comfortable as well. Tucked away from the hustle and bustle of Florida’s busy cities and beaches so it is quiet and peaceful. And yet just a short drive and you can watch the sunset over the Gulf. Could not ask for a better place to spend some time in the sunshine state.

Unique experience for the family

We decided to stay at the Shebean during our trip to Weeki Wachi Springs State Park. It was ~30 mins away from the park. The house was clean and cozy with the comforts of home. My kids (5 and 7) loved it and especially enjoyed holding the baby turkeys and chicks. Even though we were on a farm, it surprisingly did not smell like a farm! I would recommend this place to families with small children and couples who want a quiet getaway.
