This is a great location just off the river. Chaz made it easy to enjoy the private park for this neighborhood. It's a bit rustic but full of whimsy and a great way to really enjoy Real Florida

Great Stay by the River

Great job Chaz on communication and putting in all the right toys at the property. Thanks for the games on the porch, access to TV, great kayaks and paddleboards. Nice touch with the map drawn on the golf cart as you drive around the neighborhood! The six acre, gated park on the river was excellent!

This was our first stay on Rainbow River. I'm not sure if it was all of the amenities or the host (Chaz) that was the highlight of the trip, but both were fantastic. We messaged him on the second day (in the morning) to ask some advice about how best to take advantage of uitlizing KP Hole with the equipment he has at the rental. He not only answered immediately, he provided us with information that helped us have an amazing day on the water and also saved us noticable money in the long run. This experience was memorable for us and our boys and we would certainly rent here again if we travel to the river in the future.

Diver's Inn was perfect for our purposes.

Neat and clean. Access to the river was close and the golf cart was a perfect way to get there fast. Electric went out around 5 pm on the 1st night til 1:30 due to a storm. Chaz was happy to make up for the inconvenience although it was no fault of his or the owner's. We really appreciated that and hope to be back again soon.

Was not what I expected. I thought hot tub was on property. Thought it was on the river. Poured 1st day, sunny and cold 2nd day. Couldn't have a fire in the back yard. Very clean however, stocked well.

Great place!

Altho the outside of this house is mediocre to say the best the inside is great. Clean. More than enough space . Attached bathrooms with 1 being a walk in shower which meant a lot to me since I had broken my ankle b4 going there. All amenities. Fans and good a/c. Great lanai but soft cushions fir iron chairs would have been nice. Association access to Rainbow River is huge plus and this house offers all the toys necessary to enjoy the water. I would recommend this place to everyone and don't be put off by the outside!

Great place!

This is a great place to stay, it is a short drive on the golf cart to the water. It has everything you need (kayaks, paddle boards and fishing poles). We took advantage of the local attractions (KP hole and the state park). You can also put the kayaks in at the boat ramp and went down river to Blue Run park, you will need someone to pick you up or purchase a shuttle service. If you are getting a rental car, get a pick up. The only thing that too my by surprise was the $25 extra person person/per night for more than 2 people. We had 4 people in our family so I paid an extra $200.

Such a fun place to visit and great times on the Rainbow River. Golf cart and trailer is available for use to load kayaks or boards to KP hole or the Vista Private Park Down the road on the right. Such a great perk making it easily a place I would love to book again. Back yard fenced in with a fire pit and bbq grills. The locals are super friendly and helpful. Such a great time, thanks Chaz!
