Three bedrooms, five beds, two baths, a detached game room, and a pool sitting on 1.5 fully fenced acres - Henry's Hideaway is the kind of place where schedules loosen and togetherness takes over. Families, friend groups, and well-loved dogs are all welcome here.
Somewhere between Ocala’s mossy oaks and wide-open skies, Henry’s Hideaway announces itself with personality - part retreat, part playground, and shaped by the spirit of one beloved wiener dog. This single-level home is built for the kind of trip where kids run the fenced backyard freely, dogs explore every corner, and adults finally exhale. Fire up the gas grill as the afternoon fades, claim the pool table before someone else does, or settle into a chair by the fire pit and let the evening find its own pace.
Sleeping Arrangements:
Three bedrooms sleep up to nine guests across five beds - two king beds and three twin beds suited to a range of group makeups. A queen pull-out sofa in the game room provides additional sleeping space for larger parties. Cotton bed linens, extra pillows, and room-darkening blinds carry throughout every room, with a walk-in closet, closet, and dresser offering ample storage for longer stays.
Living Space:
A 65-inch HDTV and game console anchor the open living area for easy evenings at home. Central air conditioning, central heating, a ceiling fan, and an indoor fireplace give guests full comfort control across every season. A dedicated workspace - ergonomic chair, laptop stand, and surge protector in a private space - supports those who need to stay connected. Board games and the home’s signature wiener dog-themed décor give every room a warm and playful personality.
Kitchen & Dining:
Samsung stainless steel appliances - electric stove, oven, and refrigerator - anchor the kitchen alongside a dishwasher, microwave, and mini fridge. A drip coffee maker and Keurig keep mornings on track, and cooking basics, dishes and silverware, wine glasses, a toaster, a baking sheet, and a blender are all on hand. The indoor dining table seats the whole group, while the outdoor dining area offers an al fresco alternative just steps from the pool.
Outdoor Space:
The fully fenced backyard spans 1.5 acres, giving children and dogs room to roam freely. The private outdoor pool is open year-round and available 24 hours a day - please note it is not heated, so plan accordingly based on the season. A gas BBQ grill, fire pit, outdoor dining area, and outdoor furniture complete the space, and the screened lanai creates a shaded spot to take in the pool view and unwind.
Game Room:
The detached, climate-controlled game room sits just steps from the main house and brings a full entertainment lineup: an 8-foot pool table, 60-game arcade, life size games, a 55-inch Smart TV, and a beverage fridge. Whether the evening calls for a competitive tournament or a relaxed hangout, the space delivers.
Family & Pet-Friendly:
Henry’s Hideaway warmly welcomes dogs - a $99 pet fee applies per pet. If you’re planning to bring more than two, reach out before booking; the hosts are open to accommodating larger groups depending on breed. For families, baby gear is available upon request: a crib, pack ‘n play, standalone high chair, children’s dinnerware, outlet covers, and baby safety gates. The single-level layout means no stairs anywhere in the home, keeping navigation easy for guests of all ages.
