Beautiful stay!

Far enough away from the city to be peaceful, but still close to Tallahassee. The place was lovely, homey and clean, and the owners are wonderful!

Host thought of everything !!

My partner and I just wanted a quiet weekend away where we could just enjoy some relaxing and fishing, I have stayed at about five plus rentals a year and this by far was the cleanest and well thought out stay of any. We had such a wonderful time caught some fish watched the birds and wildlife.

Riverfront retreat

Our host Dianne was a delight to work with. She made sure we had everything we needed and some. The house could not have been more perfect. Her attention to detail to make your stay easy and comfortable was absolutely 10/10. My family cannot wait to return to this North Florida oasis.

Serenity Found

This quaint cottage was beyond our expectations. From the kitchen which had everything we needed and beyond to the comfy of the beds, towels and accessories provided. The outdoor BBQ stand was an added bonus. The overall cleanliness was top notch. A return in the future, for sure.
