Fantastic place, Very clean with all items needed. Plenty of room for everyone and the Living Room/Open Area made it easy to spend time together. The place feels peaceful and secluded but only 10min from main town area and boat ramp. We would definitely stay here again.

Wonderful experience

What a wonderful place to escape from the busyness of life. The house sits like it's on a peninsula-water views everywhere. The rush of the river is like constant white-noise, providing a wonderful ambiance to enjoy conversation, games, and landscape. If you are looking to kayak or paddleboard, come with experience and lifejackets, as while we were there,the river moved much to fast for anyone to paddle back upstream.

Impressive

From the moment we pulled in, we were in all at this beautiful location and house with glass panoramic view of the river. All the bedrooms were cozy and comfortable, and there was a huge living space that opened up to the kitchen and dining area, which is where we spent most of our indoor time. I brought my two kids and their spouses and my grandbaby, and we had a place to park our boat. We enjoyed the canoes and kayaks up the river and even saw a baby alligator. Experience was phenomenal and we created amazing memories and I am so grateful that we had such a beautiful place to do so we have all decided that we will make this an annual trip. Our host was responsive and informative. I highly recommend staying here.

Such a beautiful old school florida house with plenty of room for our family and it is in such a great location for scalloping. This was our second stay here and we look forward to our stay again next year. Everything is always clean and the host is great.
