If you’d like to take a once-in-a-lifetime vacation
and come out to the country, Rooterville keeps lovely Bed and
Breakfast-style accommodations at the sanctuary. Rooms are furnished
with luxurious queen beds and a private bath. Or, if you enjoy the
outdoors, you can camp out or bunk in the barn with our animals.
Here,
you’ll get to eat delicious vegan food, learn about the issues and the
health benefits of a plant-strong diet, as well as get a chance to relax
and bond with great people and a variety of animals.
For
those interested in venturing away from the sanctuary, Melrose (our
nearest town) is a quaint little spot known for its arts, lakes, and
parks. We are close to the historic city of St. Augustine, which makes
for an amazing, history-filled day-trip. There are also nearby bike
trails and other sanctuaries to visit, like Gainesville's Jungle Friends Primate Sanctuary,
among others. If you would like to bring your horses, we can make
arrangements for them as well. (There are plenty of places to ride in
the area.
If you would like to
provide your own food, we must insist on one important rule: NO MEAT
will be allowed on the sanctuary grounds. Violators will be asked to
leave; we are that serious about it.
Whatever your idea of a vacation is, we can help make it your best ever at Rooterville! Please contact us to book your stay. Rates will depend on the duration of your time with
us, whether you are interested in the weekend educational retreat, and
if you would like your meals provided.
