Fenced yard retreat w/ pool & game room

Welcome to Henry's Hideaway - a dog-themed family retreat just outside downtown Ocala, FL. Room for everyone (and every pup)

- Sleeps 9 | 3 bedrooms | 5 beds | 2 baths
- Private outdoor pool (unheated, open 24/7) + gas BBQ & fire pit
- Detached game room w/ arcade, console & 55" Smart TV
- Pet-friendly (dogs welcome) - $99/pet fee | fully fenced yard
- Children's playroom, crib & baby gear available on request
- Minutes from Silver Springs, World Equestrian Center & downtown Ocala

Three bedrooms, a detached game room, and a private pool spread across 1.5 fully fenced acres - Henry's Hideaway is a dog-themed family retreat built for groups who want genuine room to stretch out. Whether you're planning a multigenerational getaway, a trip with the whole pack, or simply a stay where everyone has somewhere to land, this property outside downtown Ocala is ready for it.
 
Living Space:
The open-plan living area centers on a 65-inch HDTV and an indoor fireplace that earns its place on cooler Florida evenings. High-beamed ceilings give the space a relaxed, unhurried feel. Central air conditioning, central heating, ceiling fans, and portable fans keep comfort dialed in year-round. A dedicated workspace - fitted with an ergonomic chair, laptop stand, and surge protector - is there for anyone who needs to stay connected during a longer stay.
 
Sleeping Arrangements:
Three bedrooms sleep up to 9 guests across 2 king beds and 3 twin beds. Room-darkening blinds, extra pillows and blankets, and generous storage - including a walk-in closet, closet, and dresser - make the space settle-in ready. The detached game room adds a queen pull-out sofa for when the group needs the overflow.
 
Kitchen & Dining:
The full kitchen is built for real cooking. A Samsung refrigerator, Samsung stainless steel electric stove, Samsung stainless steel oven, microwave, and dishwasher are all in place, along with cooking basics, dishes, and silverware. A drip coffee maker and Keurig coffee machine handle mornings, with coffee already stocked. A blender, toaster, hot water kettle, baking sheet, wine glasses, and barbecue utensils round things out. An in-unit washer and dryer mean laundry stays on-site throughout your stay.
 
Outdoor Living:
The backyard is where Henry's Hideaway really comes into its own. The private outdoor pool is open year-round, 24 hours a day - unheated, which works well across Florida's warmer stretches. A screened lanai extends your living space with outdoor dining and outdoor furniture, and the gas BBQ grill and fire pit give you every reason to stay outside past sundown. The fully fenced backyard means guests and dogs can move freely without a second thought.
 
Game Room:
The detached game room is a draw in its own right. Climate-controlled and loaded with a pool table, arcade games, a game console, life size games, a theme room, and a 55-inch Smart TV, it handles rainy afternoons and late nights in equal measure. A mini fridge keeps drinks close, and the queen pull-out sofa means it can double as an extra sleeping space when the group needs it.
 
Families With Little Ones:
Young children are well catered for here. Items such as baby safety gates, and outlet covers cover the essentials, while a crib, Pack 'n play/Travel crib, standalone high chair, and children's dinnerware are all available on request. Board games add another option for evenings in together.
 
Pet-Friendly:
Henry's Hideaway was built around a love of dogs - and your four-legged companions are fully welcome here. The expansive fenced yard gives them plenty of room to roam right alongside you. Additional dogs may be welcome depending on breed and training. A pet fee of $99 per pet applies.
 
Neighborhood:
The property sits just minutes from downtown Ocala, Silver Springs State Park, and the World Equestrian Center - putting hiking, kayaking, local dining, and a wide range of attractions within easy reach, while staying quiet and tucked away whenever you're ready to come home.
 
Home Safety & Access:
Self check-in via smart lock keeps arrival straightforward. Exterior security cameras cover the front door and driveway for peace of mind. Smoke and carbon monoxide alarms, a fire extinguisher, and a first aid kit are all on-site. Free residential garage parking for 2 vehicles is available, with free street parking as an additional option. Long-term stays are welcome.

We had another return visit to the area and of course we chose Henry’s. We love the central location in Ocala while visiting family and friends. The neighborhood is very peaceful and quiet. The backyard is huge with the pool, the available grill to cook on, and the fire pit to enjoy a nice fire at night. Let’s not forget the playroom with the pool table. Great place, perfect location from town or the villages will return again soon. Perfect place if you have pets or kids or both.

Silver Springs Visit

We traveled with toddlers and they had the best time swimming in the pool, running in the backyard, and playing in the game room. The house was set up perfectly for a family getaway. We have listed the house as on of our favorites and we hope to be back in the future. We highly recommend Henry’s Hideaway!
