About this property

Royal Springs Riverfront Retreat on 3 acres, kayak/canoe, boat ramp, huge decks!

Royal Springs River House Retreat aka "The Treehouse"

This 3 acre Retreat is a 3 bedroom, 2 bath stilt house with epic breezes and views of the historic Suwannee River, with huge wrap around deck, covered screened room with breakfast bar, and large Florida room aka the game room. It has multiple picnic tables, outside grill, fire pit, hammocks, and benches for relaxing by the fire, or by the river, all overlooking a huge backyard and natural river view.

Bring a picnic lunch and walk to Royal Springs and jump off the dock into the crystal clear blue/green spring. Bring your boat or jet ski as there is a boat ramp at the spring as well. Kayak up and down the river and discover the hidden springs nearby.

Go spring hopping to some of the many beautiful springs in the area, such as Little River Spring, Peacock Springs, Charles Springs, and be sure to tube the lazy river at Ichetucknee Springs.

About the host

Hosted by Christine

Host profile image
What brought us to the area? In Florida, it's great to be near cool crisp springs, and kayaking the historic Suwannee River gets you outside in nature to enjoy finding the hidden springs on the river. Each section of the river is different, so stay awhile and explore. We did!

Why they chose this property

We are a quaint rural community that boasts not only river access, but a natural spring, boat ramp, horses (ask about natural horsemanship class availability), cows, lots of deer, owls and other wildlife to enjoy. It is like living in a park, yet only a 20 minute drive to multiple towns in each direction.

What makes this property unique

Royal Springs Riverfront Retreat is a spacious, relaxing home in a beautiful natural setting on the Suwannee River, walking distance to the crystal clear Royal Springs park and boat ramp. Natural Florida at it's best. A truly relaxing retreat that will leave you rested and at peace.
