My family and I spent a long weekend here in the July heat. The place was great, clean, plenty of space for us. Right on the river. Kayak ramp. Fish were biting the kids had a great time fishing from the ramp. Nice firepit for smores and great place for grilling. Highly recommend the host was kind and communicative.

The host was very attentive to details. The cabin had just about anything you'd need while staying there. The cabin was immaculate, and its location was great. All appliances were in great condition, and the beds were very comfortable. We would definitely consider staying there again.

Beautiful home with everything you need! We did a day trip canoeing Rainbow springs.Afterwards, we enjoyed coming back to house, relaxing in the Adirondack chairs by the waterfront. Built a fire in the firepit & cooked out hamburgers. At night the house is so quiet & peaceful. In the mornings, we had our coffee on the front porch listening to the birds. Wonderful time! Thank you Justin for being such a great host.

We had a wonderful time staying in the house on the Withlacoochee River. The house was super clean, spacious, modern, & had everything we could possibly need for our stay. The beds were super comfortable, so we all slept well. We especially enjoyed the peace and quiet of the location. There was very little boat traffic on the river during our stay...you could just sit & rock on the awesome screened in back porch & listen to all the sounds of nature & watching deer stroll through the yard. We all love to kayak, so it was fun kayaking on the river & having access from the property was great. Rainbow River, & Rainbow Springs Park are close by, & are some of our favorite spots to hang out in the area. A great big thank you to our host, & we hope to return in the future.Chuck, Christy & Family

Peaceful stay- great location

This house was well equipped with everything you will need. Comfy beds- nice and clean. Unfortunately it rained half our trip but we took advantage of the board games, puzzle and pool table. Would love to go back!

The house is very pretty and in perfect condition it has the essentials to spend a few days. We all loved the pool table and the kayaks! The only thing that I think is needed are more chairs.

Awesome rural location

We enjoy staying at "off the beaten path" locations and this one ranks right up there near the top. It's a great location if you like to have a quiet peaceful stay. Owner was very easy to contact and communicate with. We enjoyed the areas hiking locations and nearby unique restaurants as well. We do plan to return next time we are in the area. Very much enjoyed our time at this property.
