About this property
Beautiful cozy cottage fully fenced near town and springs
Cozy fenced in cottage near buzzing restaurants and famous springs. Memory foam beds and newly remodeled kitchen. Wonderful cafe, coffee shops, brewery, and famous springs minutes away. Enjoy a late evening fire pit and grill out with family and friends. This house is perfect for a cozy getaway. 🌿 Local Recommendations
Here are a few of my favorite spots to visit (and eat!) while you’re here in beautiful High Springs:
🏞️ Springs & Outdoor Adventures
1. Gilchrist Blue Springs
One of the clearest and most scenic springs in the area. I highly recommend renting a paddleboard and spending the day exploring the spring run and river — it’s peaceful, beautiful, and a true Florida gem.
2. Ichetucknee Springs
About a 25-minute drive, but absolutely worth it. Float down the crystal-clear Ichetucknee River on a tube — it’s relaxing, fun, and one of the best ways to experience Florida’s natural beauty.
3. Poe Springs
A quieter spot that’s great for swimming, picnics, and a slower pace. Perfect for families or a peaceful afternoon in the water.
4. Ginnie Springs
Famous for its vibrant blue water and underwater caves. Great for swimming, snorkeling, or just lounging by the spring. It can get busy, but it’s definitely worth seeing at least once.
⸻
🍽️ Where to Eat
Spinwiches – A local favorite for sandwiches, wraps, and salads. Fresh and fast — perfect for lunch before hitting the springs.
The Great Outdoors – A charming spot with Southern-inspired meals, live music, and a cozy patio. Great for dinner or a relaxing night out.
Colsie’s Sweet Treats – A cozy bakery and coffee shop with amazing pastries, cookies, and espresso drinks. A perfect morning stop.
El Patio – Delicious and authentic Mexican food in the heart of town. Try the fajitas!
High Springs Brewing Company – A must-visit for craft beer lovers. Chill atmosphere, often with food trucks and live music.
