Review

Loved the area and the location of the house! There is some mold in the bunk room and in the hallway bathroom that needs attention, update the showers (more water pressure as well) and replace the mattresses. Generally speaking it was clean, easy to find and well furnished. Also shout out to Mr. Lacy for taking the trash off for us and for bringing me the key on day one.

Great Fishing Location

The unit is remote with a beautiful view of the water. Unfortunately, the unit is dated and needs updating and wasn’t as clean as we expected. Overall, we had a good time and enjoyed our time. Fishing off the dock was amazing!

River Paradise

This property is perfect for a quiet weekend on the river. After a long driveway from the main road you pull up to a retreat of paradise. We also enjoyed the private dock that it comes with.

Amazing vacation

The property owners and the people who over see the property were a pleasure to deal with. We have been coming to Lake George for over 30 years. The location was perfect. We will be booking again here as often as we can get away!

Secluded hideaway with stunning views

We joined family to stay on this property for 3 nights and wish we could have stayed longer. We spent endless hours just relaxing, watching the birds, enjoying the breeze off the water. Totally quiet and secluded. The property is huge and the view across the St. Johns River is toward the Ocala National Forest, so you're only looking at trees and moss, not condos and traffic. We highly recommend if you want to really get away from the noise and hustle and bustle of everyday Florida. Truly unique and delightful.

Loved the view. AC needs updates. Home was almost unbearable in the afternoon. Had to keep blinds closed entire time which was unfortunate as the view was the best thing about property.

Reunion with friends from High School

Everything was really good, and we enjoyed our stay, but the smell of sulpher in the water was too much for us to take and to plan another trip to this location until that is fixed will not happen. Lacy was great and the place was good except for the smell. Showering and brushing our teeth was an awful experience.

Rurual River Getaway

Loved the location of this property. Just what we wanted to regroup, secluded and rural. Hubby was amused that we traveled on a 1mi dirt road through the woods then bam, clearing upon reaching property greeted by 6 wild turkeys. :-) never saw them again after first day. Lol House is basic manufactured home. Had what we needed, however for the location & view the back really windows should have been cleaded, they were covered in little bugs stuck to windows. If there was a squeegee I would've cleaned them myself for better setting. The MB BR bed was soft, very soft and bouncy. I think the kitchen cookware could be upgraded. We initially had trouble with internet tv, but hubby worked it out and subsequently aided the owner of same when we left. :-) The prop mngr, Lacy, was very kind, gave us lots of wood for the solo pit on deck. The pit was welcomed because our trip was cold. This solo must be new because its not in photos. Our main purpose was to boat and fish, we did not catch any fish but we boated alot! Went to Salt Springs, saw manatees up close. Went up and down the St Johns and also up the Ocklawaha for which we saw lots of gators. There is a resident gator at property that every morning we saw him swim back and forth by seawall. all and all we'd come back.
