Great place! Pictures do not do it justice, the sunsets were beautiful and the fishing was great. If you are looking for a quiet getaway this is the place and yet close to not so quiet getaways lol. We have already started planning next year’s trip.

Another great stay in Astor FL. The accommodations have always exceeded our expectations. The home was spotless, comfortable, and thoughtfully prepared, creating a relaxing atmosphere from the moment we arrived. We especially appreciated how welcoming and attentive the host was—quick to communicate, helpful with local tips, and clearly committed to making the stay enjoyable. It all came together to make the trip feel effortless and genuinely memorable. Best of all we caught plenty of fish. Thanks again Dave!
Panoramic view from dock.
Solid crappie, but there are plenty bigger.
