Hosts live onsite in guest suite with no direct access to the main house. When booking a stay at Chateau Mariposa, guests have the main house to themselves, but hosts are still onsite in the guest suite. Two and a half peaceful, wooded acres . Check out the amazing springs! Weeki Wachee, Crystal River, Rainbow River or Homosassa to name a few. Only need a room or two, check out our other listings: Papillion or Vlinder or both! "Mariposa is unique" - we get this a LOT! People love her one-of-a-kind door, but that's not all that makes her special. She has wonderful windows that let in a lot of light. The dark wood (floors and ceiling beams) are a striking contrast to the light filled spaces. Did I mention we have places to hang? Mariposa invites you to hang-out whatever room you're in. There is a large, eat-in kitchen with some games and plenty of decks of cards, a formal dining room and living room. Outside you have the courtyard with plenty of seating to talk, stream TV or listen to some tunes! In the backyard, there is the beautiful firepit area with Adirondack chairs, hammocks and swings. The back porch that runs the whole length of the back of the house is where you'll find the grill and more seating for good measure!
For a group of four golfers this was a perfect spot to unwind after a long day on the links. 15 minutes from the new Cabot Citrus Farms, 5 minutes to Publix and Dunkin'...Chateau Mariposa did not disappoint. Clean and well outfitted with everything we could need and more (I say more as we didn't even take advantage of the awesome outdoor space like firepit and grill). We'll be back! Thank you Carmen and Scott!
Beautiful home and location! Even better than the photos. Carmen is an amazing host, very responsive and attentive. You’ll have everything you need and more for your stay. We have stayed at several airbnbs and this has been our favorite, we felt right at home and already thinking of booking again in the future.
Definitely one of my favorite AirBnB’s. Home is gorgeous & spotless. Well equipped with modern technology. Super comfortable master suite. Wonderful outdoor spaces to relax. Plenty of room for family to spread out. Finally, amazing hosts. Absolutely a 5-star stay!!
Chateau Mariposa was everything as described and more. There was plenty of room for our two family trip with 4 kids ages 9 to 2. We appreciated the stocked kitchen, extra beach gear and the coziness of the home to unwind after a long day. There are so many things to do and see within a few minutes to just over an hour away. We enjoyed Clearwater Aquarium and beach, Honeymoon Island and Homosassa State Park/wildlife refuge. The overall aesthetic of the home and property almost force you to relax while you are there. We also loved the private back yard, including the neighboring farm animals to watch. Thanks again to Carmen and Scott. You are doing the host job exceptionally well and we'd be happy to visit again!
As frequent travelers, we've stayed in our fair share of vacation houses, and Chateau Mariposa is exceptional! Another traveler noted that it was one of their best Airbnb experiences ever, and we couldn't agree more. Carmen and Scott poured their hearts and souls into this remodel, and it shows. The layout, finishes, and amenities were second to none. Traveling with my 60+ parents, husband, and 9 and 11 year old children, this home was the highlight of our trip! We cooked meals together in the spacious and well-equipped kitchen, hiked and explored the grounds, circled around the firepits each night, and swong the days away in the hammocks. Many Airbnbs are just fine, but the intentionality and love poured into this lodging experience was heartwarming. We would happily return!
Chateau Mariposa is in an agricultural/rural community, nestled among the trees, giving a feeling of seclusion, even though you are close to modern amenities. The Dollar General & Publix is just up the road a bit for those last minute grocery needs (2-3 miles) and there is an Anytime Fitness, liquor store and a few other stores in the Publix shopping plaza as well. (on US19/Commercial Way). If you drive just a few more miles, you will encounter restaurants, shopping, etc.
Some of our fave things about this area are the farm and wildlife we encounter. Mariposa is within a 12 miles radius that is considered "Bear Country", but we have yet to see a bear. That would be quite the site! There are beautiful horses who come right up to the fence on one side of the property. We have a resident Gopher Tortoise - Sir Sheldon - on the premises. He makes guest appearances from time-to-time. Mariposa (Butterflies), the properties namesake, is due to the many butterflies that call the chateau home. We have seen multiple swallowtails, monarchs, cloudless sulphurs and the zebra longwing butterflies...to name a few. The bird watching is pretty fine too. We love to watch the pileated woodpecker (the biggest of the species boasting sizes from 16-19" tall).
Please note we are in a wooded area and with woods come bugs, but we spray regularly for bugs inside and out. If you encounter a bug inside the house, let us know and we will contact our pest service.
Parking is easy peasy at the Chateau. The large drive and front concrete parking pad accommodates multiple vehicles. PLEASE NO PARKING IN THE YARD or on the east-side parking pad (hosts park there). One note of caution, when on Blanks St, if you pass Ehrenwald, Blanks basically turns into a sand road and a vehicle without four-wheel drive could get stuck.
自我介绍
We take loving on others seriously! It's a labor of love for us - no pun intended! Scott and I have been happily married for almost 20 years and have 4 grown, beautiful kiddos. We like meeting new people, spending time with our kids and family, being outdoors whether it's kayaking, hiking or just enjoying nature in general. You can see why we chose Mariposa! We are blessed and thankful that you and yours chose Mariposa. Thank you!
