We're so glad this was a great home base for a getaway! It's wonderful to hear you enjoyed the big TVs, the amazing bathroom, and that the A/C did its job and kept you frozen during the hot summer days! LOL Because our property/beach is on Bedford Lake and being just minutes from Lake Santa Fe makes this spot such a convenient and fun choice, and we're happy the value stood out too. (That's what we are aiming for, saving $$) Thanks so much for sharing this 5-star review!

The owner lives on the property and was extremely friendly and helpful. The home is located near the Florida Trail and many lakes with easy access to all. We enjoyed our stay and felt it was good value for the cost.
