About this property

Lakefront efficiency 3 min from Deleon Springs State Park

We are offering a beautiful private efficiency apartment for rent in our home. This efficiency has its own private entrance, bathroom, and its own patio/deck with a beautiful lake view. There is a refrigerator, microwave, coffee maker, and small dining table. It’s part of the downstairs of a two story home, and we live in the upstairs. Our first floor efficiency is independent from the rest of the house making it very private. This Old Florida style waterfront home is located within walking distance to Deleon Springs State Park. The Old Spanish Sugar Mill is the perfect spot to get away, relax, and enjoy the undisturbed Florida waterways. Our home is located in front of Spring Garden Lake, where every day provides beautiful views of the sunset that can be contemplated from the patio of the house. This land has been preserved by the Lennon family for generations. Our son, Triston Lennon is the fifth generation native to this area.
Our house has two levels. The first floor contains the rental and large 6 car garage. The rental is composed of one bedroom and one bath featuring a super comfy king size bed, jacuzzi tub, and walk-in shower. We want to encourage our guests to enjoy the 40’ x 12’ private patio/deck area at sunset or take one of our canoes for a short paddle ride up to the spring to see the small waterfall. We love our life in Deleon Springs, we love nature, the environment and our family's history. The bedroom is decorated with an abundance of items depicting the rich history of the area. We also have available for our guests the park pass and two adults bicycles. 🚴 🚴 🚴

Dirtiest VRBO we've evwr stayed in. Room was under a house and the owners were loud above us, very early the morning. We kindly asked about it and were told we could "go get a hotel room". Room wasnt ready when we arrived. Patio furniture was filthy with animal droppings all over it. Had to walk through dirt and knee high grass /weeds to get to the room. You certainly couldnt make it down to the "waterfront" that was advertised.

My partner, and I absolutely loved this place. The photos do not do it justice! The property is absolutely stunning, as well as the efficiency. You truly get a feel for Florida outdoors from the entrance of the property all the way to the back. We saw plenty of wildlife, including deer, owls, and alligators. The holes were also excellent, they thought about everything who would need to stay in their lovely home. We will definitely be back.

Beautiful Setting!

We here in DeLeon Springs for a quick stay. The efficiency was secluded, clean and delightful! The live oaks are simply amazing! We sat out on the porch in the evening with a glass of wine and a book and watched the sunset. Small fridge and microwave was all we needed and having the paper plates and utensils was much appreciated. Host also provided a pass to Florida State Parks which was super thoughtful and my daughter and I loved visiting the DeLeon Springs just around the corner. Lovely stay! Thanks so much!

Old Florida Charm

Nice, clean room with top end finishes beneath owners residence and adjoining garage. Private entrance and pretty view of lake. Bed is very firm. Lake is very low, not navigable by canoe this time of year. Owner did disclose sulfur smell in water, after we had booked. De Leon Springs is close by, there is a long line to get in early, but no line later in the day. Lennon Park has a nice hiking trails and if you ride mountain bikes, the trails look great. There isn't a lot to do but if relaxing is your plan, it's a good location. Beaches are about an hour away, we enjoyed Flagler Beach. Deland isn't far away for groceries and shopping.

Nice place but had a few issues

Garrett is a great guy but hired a poor cleaning person. Bed was made with unwashed sheets. Garrett brought clean ones and helped make the bed. Next issue caused us to leave early. The bedroom ajoins the garage and filled with smoke when the host smokes in the garage. I turned one the bath fan and opened the window but it just lingered. Two nights of that and I got a hotel.Ed when a couple guys were somi

Simply stunning

If you want to find a slice of old Florida, with direct access to a pristine lake, then this place won't disappoint!We stayed for only a couple of nights, but very much wish it had been more. The apartment was spotless and had everything we needed. It was also enormous, with a separate bathroom which was far bigger than expected.The pictures don't really do this place justice. The location is incredible, with a view (and sunsets) that are world class. Also, the De Leon State Park is literally round the corner. The place feels tucked away but actually you can be in Deland in a few minutes, with access to various shops and restaurants.The best feature was our host Garrett, an absolute legend who defines true Southern hospitality. He couldn't do enough for us, and this included a boat trip around the lake into the areas that only a local would know.I cannot recommend this place enough!!

We arrived before 4 pm check in. We’re able to visit with owner and view surroundings. Very beautiful place, tranquil setting. The facility has everything that was stated in VRBO. We will stay again if the facility is available next time we visit family.
