Once again, we had a delightful stay at Leaning Oaks in Inverness. The accommodations are private and comfortable. The landscape is nothing short of gorgeous when the Azaleas are in bloom! We love the grandfather Live Oak trees bearded with Spanish Moss and adorned with Resurrection Ferns. Sunrises and sunsets are spectacular and the constantly changing wildlife around the lake engages our attention from pre-dawn to full dark. For reflection, renewal and revival of the soul, this place knows no equal.
The hospitality remains gracious and welcoming. Next time we return to Central Florida, this is where we will stay. Again!

Wow! Loved staying here! The location is amazing! Incredible views of wildlife on the lake! My favorite aspect is the privacy, yet easily accessible from either Inverness or Floral City.
The apartment is very comfortable and the hosts are very accommodating. Everything had been freshly cleaned before arrival. The bedroom and private bath were well supplied with linens and essentials. The living room and kitchen area had a television and fireplace. Mornings on the sunporch offered spectacular sunrises through ancient Live Oaks that overlooked the lake.
Definitely planning to return here next time in the area.

Positives:
Beautiful cabin
Quiet
Water gets hot!
Decent kitchen equipment for cooking.
Reclining couches with motors.
The lighting options were brilliant for day and night.
Porch was pleasant.
TV signal was good with many app options.
15 mins from town. Lots of great diners, grocery stores, had Walmart delivery available and the antique mall is a must!
Cons:
Kitchen stove and island was covered in dust when we arrived.
Couches were pretty worn, no rips or tears, just wobbly, but they work.
AC was not working correctly, which caused us to leave a few days early.
Musty smell- turns out AC filter was over 6 months old and was black.
The spa tub takes 30 mins plus to fill...the faucet barely turns on. I ended up bucketing water in from the bathroom sink to get it done within a half hour. Pretty much made it useless for us.
Dishwasher rack flies out and the door falls, it's an easy fix, but watch out for it.
There was a large RV on property that we were unaware of why.
The bed was very high, but they give a step stool, the bed side tables were too far away to reach for me so using a cpap was a little tricky. The bed also had a very bad dip in it, which cause my husband and I to have back and neck aches.
All in all it wasn't awful, but improvements could've been made. It's the common lack of inspections for little things, but the air conditioning not working was the worst of it. If you are renting this cabin ensure it works. We only stayed so long because the weather was tolerable and we had all the ceiling fans on and I had a fan pointing at me that I always bring on trips.
