Great house with a fantastic view. We couldn't have asked for a better place to spend quality time with friends. The house did not lack any amenities and was full stocked with any need essentials. Michele was a great host.

Unspoiled Peace
Peace and serenity abounds! This property is amazing and has everything you need for your stay! All the light switches are labeled, making it easy. It was just my husband & dogs on this trip, but there is plenty of various games (board games, jenga, ping pong, pac man, horse shoe pit, disc golf, etc.,), river tubes, kayaks, etc., available to keep the family entertained. There is a nice fenced area for the dogs, and they even have some pet bowls available to use for food & water. The massage chair was a nice treat! You can get groceries delivered by instacart (just make sure that you include a decent tip to make it worth the shoppers time to deliver so far away. Michelle was very responsive and friendly to our needs! We definitely look forward to staying again in the future!

Great place for a relaxing vacation!
This is our second time at this house and it never disappoints! The house is very well stocked, great garage with plenty of entertainment. Plenty of tubs and kayaks. I love all deer every time we drove in and out of the property. Would definitely recommend! Michelle was a great host!

Large yet cozy house on the river
We had a great 3 night stay! We enjoyed the house and it’s convenient location on the river. Got dropped off up river by Jeff and floated down to Ginnie Springs (had to get out early because of rain). Jeff was very helpful in picking us up early. The house is great to accommodate multiple people with plenty of bathrooms and lots of space. Huge yard for dogs to play and fenced in area as well. Only complaint was that on top of the $20 extra per guest I was charged an additional $75 cleaning fee for having a large group. Also I had to constantly reassure that we weren’t going to have a party with extra guests, which we didn’t. Overall it’s a great secluded space and we enjoyed getting away for the city to relax!

Great experience
The home on the river was great. Everything was very clean and well kept. Jeff and Michelle were awesome. If we needed anything at all they were there. They made us feel like we were at home. The wildlife on the place was a huge plus for us. Whitetail deer out the front and backyard every morning while drinking our coffee. The river and springs were beautiful and an experience by themselves. We will definitely be back soon. This was a laid back very peaceful vacation that was much needed!

UF Graduation Weekend
What a great time our family had celebrating our kid graduating UF! This property was perfect for us. Lots of laidback fun- tubing on the river, kayaking, frisbee golf, s’mores at the fire pit, lounging on the dock, etc… We saw otters, owls, hummingbirds, snapping turtles, deer, fish, snakes- we loved it all!
