Five Minutes to Rainbow Springs State Park and KP Hole!

This relaxing, smoke-free property is located in Dunnellon Florida. The area is known for the beautiful Rainbow Springs/River and Withlacoochee River.

The home is an open floor plan and accommodates six people comfortably. Master bedroom is on one side and guests are on the other. One guest room includes a work desk, with HP USB-C docking station and 3 monitors. All bedrooms have ceiling fans. We welcome long term rentals and offer a discounted rate.

The living room, dining room, and well-equipped kitchen are the hub of the house. Sliding glass doors lead to an expansive lanai that is screened and also covered, no blazing sun or bugs. A gas grill, patio furniture, and loungers are ready for your use. The backyard view is woodsy and private; neighbors are at a distance. At the tree line, there is a walking/bicycle path that traverses the community.

The home is on a wooded property and Florida is endemic to critters, insects, lizards, grasshoppers, palmetto bugs, spiders and snakes. Please keep doors and windows closed. We are diligent with our pest control. There will be no refunds if you have an encounter. On a happier note, if you want to see deer and fox, wake early to find them foraging for breakfast!

The gem of the neighborhood is Rainbow Springs State Park and it's only a five-minute drive! It is a first magnitude spring boasting sapphire-blue waters, with exceptional clarity. The park provides watercraft rentals, picnic tables, concessions, a gift shop, bathrooms and showers. The hiking trail takes you past waterfalls and a river view. The entrance fee is only $2.00! The best money you'll ever spend!

For those competing at the World Equestrian Center Ocala, this premier complex is only a 20-minute drive! WEC is the largest equestrian complex in the U.S. and promises the ultimate experience. Exhibits are open to the public, along with restaurants and retail shopping.

Winn Dixie, Publix, Aldi, and Walmart are 5 minutes away! Cheers, Purple Sage, and Front Porch restaurants are local favorites. Riviera Maya has excellent Mexican food and Crystal River Smokehouse and Grill has excellent BBQ!

Photographers will love the natural beauty and wildlife on the Rainbow and Withlacoochee Rivers. More places of interest include Blue Run Dunnellon, Halpata Tastanaki Preserve, Cedar Lakes Woods and Gardens and for museum lovers the Appleton Museum of Art in Ocala.

Visit Grumbles House Antiques and Garden Shop (built in 1908) for a chance to find a memorable gift of your trip to Dunnellon. Also, the Greater Dunnellon Historical Society maintains the historic train depot on Williams St. and is dedicated to ensuring its place in history.

For golfers, Juliette Falls and Twisted Oaks are close by.

Beautiful house, strictly ran

Honest review-The house is beautiful and well maintained, equipped with all kitchen, bathroom, and bedding essentials you may need. It is cleaned spotlessly and there are some games and other activities inside to make for some fun family time. The neighborhood is gorgeous with a walking trail out the back yard. The hot tub outback is off limits. Main problem is with surveillance. They seem to watch you at all times. No where in the listing or posted in the house did we find that the garage was “not an amenity”. The house was even posted to come with 2 new bikes, however we took a bike out and received an immediate 15 charge for use of the bikes which wasn’t allowed according to the owner. You feel like you are being watched so if privacy is important, look elsewhere. The cameras in garage actually follow you. I booked this as last minute getaway for my family of 5 (me, husband, infant in one room, and two children to share another room). There were not many options left in the area so we chose this 3 bedroom house. Invited another family along as we would only be using two of the bedrooms. My mistake for not going back and checking that it was listed for 6 people, as most 3 bedroom rentals sleep more. There are doorbell cameras and security cameras along the entire perimeter and we were charged for the 3 extra guests per night. Understandable, as it’s house rule. we left the place very clean and were only there to sleep. Probably more suited for older couples.

Fabulous!! 5 Stars

Best equipped VRBO we've stayed in. Felt like home. Host was very readily available, shared insights on the area, and kept us posted on local events. Will return!
