Location is Perfect, feel secluded in nature while also at the center of the Rainbow river experience. Private little cove right off the dock to relax and float, with easy access to kayaks to explore the river. Authentic to visiting a Nanas home. Authentic rustic Florida nostalgia vibes. Bring your own toiletries!

Great, spacious and well appointed rental. Matt, the property owner, was a great communicator and very generous throughout our stay. The space comfortably sleeps 10, with about 7 different sleeping areas, so everyone had their own spot. The kitchen was well stocked, including a Keurig and a grind coffee option, plus a toaster oven, and the drinking water was great.The dock was a great bonus with kayaks big and small, the kids caught fish right off it, and we were close enough to the head springs that my boys actually swam up there every day, though it was a tough swim. We’ll happily return.

The host is very accommodating and personable. Enjoyed having Matt around. The house is very spacious especially the kitchen. The location is perfect right in between KP hole and State Park. Kayaks were a bonus. Loved the outdoor fire pit with all the wood available. Nearby bike trails were fun and very scenic. Grocery stores nearby if needed. Thank you for a wonderful stay and hope to visit again!

Location awesome, hard to see the driveway but , it’s on a white sign , beautiful spot on the river , huge lay out , two living rooms , Bri g 10 people easy. Very important , there is no system in place for you to just float down to the KP hole and walk back, pretty dangerous little walk , tight , about 3 miles . If you have two cars , a few bikes , something may help.Super awesome people, we will visit again . Wish we could bring our pets
