About this property

Poppy's Place is your unique Steinhatchee destination with river/gulf access

UPDATE ON POPPY'S PLACE! WE ARE ALMOST DONE WITH RENNOVATIONS, JUST DOWN TO SOME FINISHING TOUCHES AND WE HAVE TRIED TO BUILD BACK FROM HELENE BETTER THAN BEFORE. NEW BLOWN IN INSULATION AND HARDIEBOARD PANELS HAVE THE HOUSE AIR AND WATER TIGHT. A NEW LIFEPROOF FLOOR, NEW CABINETS AND ALL NEW APPLIANCES. WE HAVE A NEW AND MORE POWERFUL AIR CONDITIONING UNIT, NEW PAINT AND REMODELED BATH ROOMS, WITH ALL NEW FURNITURE. WE ARE STILL WORKING ON DOCK AND OTHER EXTERIOR UPGRADES, BUT WE WILL BE AVAILABLE FOR BOOKING STARTING JULY 1ST. FOR THOSE GUESTS ATTEMPTING TO RETURN, THANK YOU FOR ALL THE KIND WORDS AND NOTES, FOR ANYONE NEW OUT THERE THAT HASN'T BEEN TO OUR PLACE, YOU CAN LOOK AT THE EXISTING PICS ON HERE, BUT STAY TUNED FOR ALL NEW PICS IN THE NEXT COUPLE WEEKS. Nestled in a natural Florida Hammock, Poppy's Place resides in one of Steinhatchee's most sought after neighborhoods. The old Florida setting is the perfect balance of seclusion and relaxation while being close to all the local amenities that Steinhatchee has to offer. This unique property, built partially on natural Limestone Rock, has 3 bedrooms and 3 full bathrooms 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms in main house and 1 bed and bath in the finished but separate garage and can comfortably sleep 13. The main house has an upstairs Master Suite with a king and a single day bed, the downstairs bedroom has 2 Full Beds, and 2 full size couches in the living room. The completely remodeled Kitchen and dining area also has seating for up to 13 and you can gather in the comfortable living room area enjoying the smart TV over the Fireplace or the large screened porch allowing for plenty of room to sit, eat and socialize with friends and family. The detached but fully updated "Shark's Den" has 2 Queen Beds and a futon and a Full bath and kitchenette. The outside has a driveway to accommodate several vehicles, a cozy fire pit area, outdoor shower and grilling area. There is also a Dock in our backyard canal, connecting to the Steinhatchee River with Gulf Access, which is a great area to relax. The dock behind the house is on a canal with 2-3’ depth at low tide and there is no longer a fixed bridge. For larger boats or multiple boat guests We do have a neighbor across the driveway that has multiple dock slips on the main river available for rent for an additional $50 per night charge on a first come first serve basis, this is an amazing benefit... beat the boat ramp and see Steinhatchee like a native!
Thank you for the opportunity to host you at Poppy's Place where Old Florida meets Modern conveniences to have the best of both worlds.

One of the best VRBO's we have stayed at in Steinhatchee

We do a company fishing trip every year for our team members and end up using VRBO's. This place was great, and the little additional apartment on main level gave us enough room for everyone.

Best place we have stayed for a large group!

10 out of 10! Very clean. Best stocked place ever. The outside is so unique, we saw manatee & gators off the dock. We were able to keep the boat right on the dock, so convenient. Kitchen was great too. Loved it and will try our best to book it again.

Property Seemed Like Home for a Few Days

I’ve stayed at many VRBOs, and this is at the top of the list. The property has great character. It is well stocked, clean, and comfortable. Bedrooms have ample room, and the sharks den offers privacy if anyone appreciates that. Kitchen was stocked with everything needed and more. Owner was easy to communicate with and overly helpful with questions.

Steinhatchee Family Scalloping Trip

The property was even better than advertised. Very clean and spacious living area and bedrooms. The kitchen was well stocked with all the items needed for a large group to prepare and eat all of our meals at the house. We would definitely stay again. Highly recommend Poppy’s Place.

Scalloping/kyakking weekend

Our stay was wonderful! There were 7 of us staying for the weekend to scalloping and kyakking the river. Location was perfect. Access to the local grocery, restaurant, the marina and steinhatchee falls all were very close. The home is extremely clean and well equipped with everything we needed. Im greatly looking forward to returning next year!!

Fishing Trip

One of the best places our fishing group has stayed at in the past 10 yrs. Close to everything. Super cool layout. Very comfortable. We fished off the back dock every night while we relaxed. Very clean with plenty of bathrooms and comfortable beds. Large open format kitchen with everything you’d need to prepare a large meal. Highly recommend this place.

Great experience!

My friends/family and I stayed here during the crab festival and had a blast! The pictures listed don't even begin to describe the beauty of the house and property. There was a group of 8+ that slept comfortably here and everyone had their own space. This house is very close to the marinas and restaurants. I highly recommend to anyone considering.

Amazing!!!!

Gorgeous home and property! Perfect for our group of 2 families with teens. Kids loved the shark den and having their own space! Home was so beautiful with every amenity you could imagine! Neighbors where we were able to keep our boat for quick launch to scallop were so friendly. Such a hidden gem!

Nice place

The house is great and has a separate apt. Which is nice if you’re traveling with friends. The really great thing was that the little things soap, napkins, salt and pepper etc were all there for you. And unlike some vrbo units toilet paper was included. The owner responds very quickly to questions. It was great. And a screened porch too!

Great place to stay, lots of Extras!

Everything was great at the house, the owners a very accommodating and have little extra perks included all over the house. If I had any complaints at all it would be that the house will sleep 13 like advertised but there is only 2 bedrooms in the main house and one bedroom in the sharks den. All bedrooms have multiple beds. It worked out well for our group and we would definitely stay there again.

Wonderful house, great stay

The house is beautiful, a spacious and tastefully furnished mansion with everything you need for a relaxing stay. The owner Bryan has really thought of everything. The kitchen is fully equipped, even providing these little things which make a stay comfortable, from coffee to washing powder. Very thoughtful and accommodating! The river in the backyard creates a unique and beautiful setting where you can sit and enjoy the tranquillity of “old Florida”. You can even take an easy stroll into town, everything is so close. We had a great stay and were sad that we had only so few days in this lovely town and Bryan’s great house.

FABULOUS

Enjoyed our stay. Our first reservation was canceled and I had to scramble to find something affordable, centrally located and large enough to accommodate 5 adults comfortably…I was blown away and tickled pink when we arrived. Clean, updated, spacious, comfortable and absolutely beautiful. Host was very responsive and friendly. The WiFi was the only issue we had, but that is not exclusive to this property- it’s bad everywhere around this area. Will definitely book again the next time we visit Steinhatchee.

3 day weekend trip

The property and home is beautiful. We had 2 families and 4 teens all together. We had plenty of room and the kids enjoyed having their own apartment! I enjoyed having plenty of supplies like toilet paper and trash bags. This vacation was just a short weekend but other vacations when we stay for a week I get annoyed that I have to shop for basics. I feel like the boat dock on the property (too shallow) was miss leading we never used it. Luckily our other friends had a place we could dock our boat to avoid paying the neighbours extra money to use theirs. We did encounter ants in the kitchen if we left food on the counters, muffins had to be thrown out. But it’s Florida there will be bugs! We would stay again we enjoyed our time. The house was updated beautifully, clean, comfortable and we had everything we needed.

No water access

This property is beautiful. My only complaint is it DOES NOT have direct water access. I felt this is misrepresented in the listing. It just says if your boat has a t top that you can not get under the bridge. This is NOT true. The only thing getting under this bridge is a kayak or canoe. We needed the direct water access as we had family with a baby and exiting on and off the public boat ramp is CRAZY during scallop season. I would not stay again only due to this fact. If you do not need the access as I said property and house were beautiful and comfortable for a family gathering.
