About the host

Hosted by Jacinta Capehart

Host profile image
My husband and I live in North Georgia with our 2 Pomeranian boys. My husband is an avid bass fisherman so we purchased our home in Ft. McCoy, Florida so he could enjoy bass fishing at its best. Later on, the home next to us became available so we purchased it and turned it into the vacation rental for you to enjoy.

Why they chose this property

We chose our property because it is within walking distance to the Ocklawaha River and the boat ramp is just right there as well.

What makes this property unique

If you want a peaceful retreat, "Fish Tales" is the place to be. There are so many outdoor opportunities nearby. If you enjoy fishing, hunting, kayaking, horseback riding, riding the ATV trails-all of this is just minutes away from "Fish Tales". There's plenty of parking space for you to bring your own boat or your trailer with your ATV's.
