About this property

Serene, Luxurious Riverside Home – Dock + Hot Tub!

Forget your worries in this serene space. Our 4 bedroom/3.5 bath home is a great option for your next getaway to Florida - enjoy all of the natural sunlight and views of the Suwannee River from inside or outside!
We can comfortably accommodate 8 guests and invite you to stretch out with your group in our spacious home.
Our stilt-style home offers a large deck and separate seating space under the main home. Guests are also welcome to use our hot tub and dock during their stays.
Please be advised that we have security cameras to monitor the exterior of the home.

Upon arrival, guests will be welcomed by our cozy outdoor hang-out space under our home. Once you head up the steps you'll get to check out our gorgeous river view before walking into our bright and spacious home.
As we mentioned, we have 4 great bedrooms and 3.5 baths. Our primary bedroom is located on the main level and features a king-sized bed and ensuite bathroom featuring double sinks, a soaking tub, and a standing shower. There is also access to the deck. The first guest bedroom on the second level features a queen-sized bed and the second features two twin beds. There is also a full bath shared by these bedrooms. On the ground level, we have a living room space and a twin-sized bunk bed. Along with a full bathroom. (In our opinion, this lower-level space could be perfect for teens in your group looking for their own space.)
The living room offers plenty of seating for everyone to enjoy a movie to end a day of fun in the sun. There is also a bathroom off the living room.
Our spacious kitchen is great for the chef in your group - plenty of counter space and the basics you would need to prepare meals to fuel your adventures. We also have a dining table fit for 8 with two bar seats by our kitchen island.
Our home also has a secluded office space on the main level if you need to get a little work done during your trip. There is also deck access from within the office.

Enough about our inside space! Our outdoor oasis is one of our favorite parts of this property. We invite you to enjoy the many seating areas we've created around the property. Just outside the main living space, you'll notice there is access to the spacious deck throughout the home. This main deck features a hot tub, a grilling/bar area, and a covered outdoor eating area. just down the stairs, we have plenty of covered seating areas under the home with ceiling fans to keep the air flowing on hot days. As you venture towards the river down the path, you'll find our firepit, and just a bit further down, you'll find the dock.

Our property is not currently pet friendly.

We offer a starter set of laundry detergent, dishwasher detergent, dish soap, toilet paper and paper towels. If you're staying more than a couple of days, please prepare in advance by purchasing as much of those supplies as you will need for your stay (grocery/convenience stores are not around the corner out here, so please plan ahead!)

We can sometimes accommodate early check-ins or late check-outs depending on our team's schedule. Please reach out to us if your group would be interested in this accommodation. Please note, we ask for a $50 fee if we can accommodate this during your stay.

We will haul 4 bags of trash on behalf of the guest at no charge. Any ADDITIONAL BAGS OF TRASH left behind will be a $6/bag charge to the guest.

Please note that cell service in this are is spotty and guests are encouraged to screenshot a photo of the door codes as well as bring along a printed copy of the directions to the home.

Fun get away
The bag fee is ridiculous especially for having a long stay and only had one paper towels and not enough rags for guest to shower with we had to go out and buy more and your fridge showed it had water but it’s a different fridge so we had to go get bottles of water to drink. The 4th room you gotta walk outside and it smells like outside in there. They have a lift for bags and stuff but it was left down so upstairs had a gaping hole you could fall down we had to block it off with chairs because we texted and they had no answer to get the lift to work. Also they charge you 6 dollars PER bag after 4 bags they charged us 54 dollars for trash. But overall the cabin was great still had a fun time.

Do not recommend.
From the moment we arrived at this property we were disappointed. So many things were completely unacceptable. Just to list a few. Not enough towels for everyone. The water here is brown. You will need to bring drinking and cooking water. Dead and live bugs in the house. Fridge downstairs was filthy. The couch is broken in several spots. Cigarette butts and trash in the yard. The hot tub was not turned on. So we could not use for 2 days until it warmed. All of the toilets were not cleaned!! I have pics of everyone of these things. All issues were communicated to property manager. No attempt to resolve any issue and no offer for compensation. So disappointed.

NO LIFT FOR GUESTS
I booked this house because it has a lift…. However when I arrived the lift didn’t work, when I inquired about the lift, Maria messaged me she couldn’t get into her phone right now??! after waiting w/no reply, I had to drag all our luggage & groceries up the stairs. My 82 year old handicapped mother would have enjoyed not having to climb stairs, but Maria never did give direction on the use of the lift, yet request a five star review! I’m sorry but the lift is a big deal when you travel with elderly folks. The lower level of the house was not clean, spiders & webs every where. The”leather” furniture in the ground level room is peeling off all over the floor, you couldn’t sit on it or the ottoman, that room smelled of mold. The upper 2 levels of the house were nice & clean, the location of the house was great, very quit & beautiful river views. We saw deer & turkey on the property. Overall we enjoyed our stay! But I’m definitely not happy about the way the lift inquiry was just ignored… for five days, again having to drag everything down the stairs when we left! You clearly do not intend to provide the lift to guests, so please remove it from the listing!

Very nice property
Overall we had a wonderful time and the house and property are beautiful. It should not be advertised as a 4/3 when the downstairs is uninhabitable. Between the smell and ants it isn’t possible. Which definitely caused some frustration since we needed the 4th bedroom. There were not enough towels so we did constant laundry, and every dish we used was dirty. The coffee pot was full of moldy coffee having not been cleaned. The master shower did not drain unless I plunged it after each use so every shower we took in that bathroom we had about 5 mins before it would overflow, again another frustration with a group of 7 and 1 properly working shower. I was asked to let them know of any issues before giving the house anything less than 5 stars, which I did and that message was ignored completely and I was reminded I would be charged $6 per bag of trash if i had more than 4 bags instead. Which was funny because the house had only the 1 garbage bag that came in the kitchen trash can and we had to provide our own bags. In any case we made it all work, overlooking the river with the dock and yard was great, the beds were comfortable and the patio was nice to relax on. The kitchen had plenty of cookware and the house was comfortable. A little attention to detail and I would’ve given it a 5 star.
