We absolutely loved our stay! The peacefulness of the property was amazing and made for the perfect getaway. The house, lodge, and cabin were all wonderful. Everything about the property was beautiful - from the house to the river and surrounding property. We had an amazing time and would definitely stay again!

Can’t speak highly enough of this place. You know it’s a good destination when the kids are asking when we can come back, before we’ve even left. Was an excellent way to get back to nature with the family, while still enjoying all the comforts of home. The boys loved the trails, and fishing the river. We’ll definitely be back.

I cannot say enough great things about this place! Everything was perfect from the communication to the property. It was even more beautiful than advertised and was perfect to accommodate a big group for a Yoga Retreat that I was holding. There were canoes and kayaks. Available to enjoy a nice ride down the river and a beautiful scenic place to take nature walks and see so many animals. We saw donkeys and hogs and so many birds. We did yoga on the top deck and on the bottom floor of the river house and it was stunning and so peaceful and we will definitely be coming back next year thank you so much to the owner Charles for creating such a great space for us and to the property caretaker Mike, who is very responsive and helped us with any needs, especially getting us the canoe and kayaks.

We get a large home every year for a girls getaway and this is my favorite one so far! Even better than the pics inside and out. The property is huge, private and stunning. The house, cabin and lodge are all newly renovated and really well done. If you're considering this property, just book it!

We had our dream wedding here with our families! The caretaker Mike stole the show for us, he cares for this property as if it's his own & he bends over backwards to make sure guests enjoy their stay. I'd give Charles & their team 6 stars if I could. Don't hesitate to book your stay at the beautiful Peace River Valley Ranch it's worth every cent!

A family favorite

We have stayed at this ranch three times now and each time is just as fun. Kids range in ages from 7 through 17 and they all have the best time, asking to go back again as soon as we leave. We recommend renting golf carts so you can fully explore all the trails throughout the property. It's definitely an "Old Florida" experience off the beaten path, but with all the luxuries you need while here. We will definitely be back again!

Better than ever

After taking a year off for the post-hurricane renovations, the property is back and better than ever. Still the same structures, just elevated and with nice updates inside. Perfect place to keep to yourself, or enjoy with family and friends with everyone in their own spaces.

Second Visit to Peace River Valley Ranch

This was my second visit to the property, this time as a family birthday weekend. The entire group had enough space to comfortably enjoy all of the cozy accommodations as well as a good dose of nature therapy. The host is very responsive and always hospitable. I've already booked to go back again in the new year!

Wish we could have stayed longer.

The property in short is amazing. My family and I had an incredible stay at the Peace River Valley Ranch. The property is stunning. To have the freedom to explore such a beautiful untouched wilderness is breath taking. From the booking to our departure, we had the most relaxing time. Charles is very informative and his communication is awesome. We could only stay for 3 days, but we definitely would love to stay for a week plus for our next stay. Charles, Thank you for having us. Look forward to our next stay.

Retreat Immersed in Old Florida Wilderness

Our trip to Peace River Valley Ranch far exceeded my expectations. We had a group of 10 people for a small office retreat surrounded by nature. The structures are located within habitats reminiscent of Old Florida, with stands of cypress, open pastures and live oak and sabal palm hammocks. We saw multiple types of wildlife including hawks, cranes, deer, cattle, hogs, armadillo and even a bald eagle. The accommodations were clean, roomy and we had everything we needed to enjoy the long weekend immersed in wilderness. Charles was very hospitable and made sure to check in leading up to the trip and answer any questions about our visit. We were able to explore the property on the well maintained paths by both foot and UTV. We will definitely be visiting the ranch again.

Beautiful property in Central Florida

This property is beautiful. The River House's view was beautiful. Stars in the sky were a massive plus, with little light pollution, in the open area by the River House. I think the only disappointing part of this property was that my family and I intended to use the picnic tables area at the event location, and it had an outhouse-style bathroom, which ideally is good compared to the woods. However, it appeared to have not been cleaned for an unknown time. It was filled with dirt and spiders. All in all the place was great! I am a local to the area and even I loved this place. My out-of-state family continue to talk about how beautiful it was there.

3 Generation family get together— Perfect Place

I’m not sure we can give a review that really does this place and the owners justice. We had this trip on the books for a couple of years and even when it was flooded and the owner had to rehab everything- he kept us on the books and stayed in communication as the the readiness of the property. We had stayed at this property many times before but it’s been redone a few times and it keeps getting better and better. The owner has thought through all the details to make the property perfect for getting away/adventure. Four wheeling trails, firing range, kayaking and basically any outdoor adventure you want is what this place provides. The inside of the Riverhouse, Cabin and Lodge are very comfortably furnished and have all the accessories that a group needs. If this was my property, I’d probably keep it all to myself. We feel lucky that the owners make it available for rent. With all the available beds on the property, you’re getting the equivalent of holiday inn pricing per person and a Four Seasons value of experiences. I don’t like leaving reviews but this place deserves the time to write one. As reference for groups thinking of booking— Our group had 13 adults and 2 small kids staying on the property and another 2 families with kids visit during the day a couple of times. Plenty of room.

A slice of heaven located in Central Florida if you are looking to book for a large party this is your place. Has 3 buildings and accommodated or entire wedding party. Has a great pavilion to have an event. Trails and beautiful scenery as far as you can see also an amazing gun range! Very up to date with appliances and modern furniture. Our host was very communicative and answered any of our questions quickly! We had a wonderful time on the property and will definitely return in the future!

Our 5th year at this extraordinary property!

Our family & friends fell in love with this property 6 years ago! It is now a big part of our spring break memories. It is a true paradise for all ages to enjoy a slice of old Florida. We saw lots of wildlife, enjoyed biking & hiking the trails & roads, played & paddled the river, and found more sharks teeth. Thank you again for offering your home & property to rentals!! Truly a magical place in Florida!

AMAZING!

Wow, what an awesome property! Our group ranged in ages 1-45 and we all had an amazing time. It was the perfect place to get away and rest, but still have some adventures too. Charles was great with communicating and everything essential and more was included with the property. All of us had such a good time playing in the river, looking for sharks teeth, cooking meals, and just relaxing enjoying the property and each other’s company. Definitely want to come back.
