Nice place to stay. Very clean. Comfortable beds. Excellent AC!! Good parking for two boat trailers. Kitchen well stocked for cooking. Wonderful back porch. We loved having the boat dock off the main river. Perfect fish cleaning station. Would definitely stay again.
We had plenty of room for our large family, very clean, huge back porch with lots of seating, easy access to river/boat ramp. We loved our stay here and would definitely return.

What a fantastic place! Five of us stayed there for four nights and we had everything we needed. The house is very nice and clean, and stocked with all the essentials. Bedrooms are great. The screen porch is large and very nice with plenty of seating, table top fire pit, tv, etc. We used it quite a bit. Outside is great with fire pit and doc to the canal. Had a great time out there and caught some fish. Our host Connie was wonderful and communication was first rate. Would definitely stay here again, and highly recommend it!
This place is perfect, dock for our boat, we had a boat, pontoon and jet ski! All were able to park on the water in front of the house. We spent most of our time on the awesome back porch, plenty if seating for all of us. The house was well supplied to make it easy to prepare our meals.Ample parking for several families to park. Located in the 2nd cove from the ramp, super convinent! We LOVED THIS PLACE!
Absolutely Amazing, perfect for the 3 generation. Our annual Spring Break for the children. House was clean and Very Well stocked. The welcome basket was a big hit for the children. Fishing off the dock!! Thank You Hope to go back next year

The house is in a quiet neighborhood and convenient to Astor. The home was as nice as we had hoped. The large screened in back porch was amazing with table and chairs for eating and patio furniture for relaxing. The boat slip was perfect for my 21'6"ft long x 8'4" wide, with about 6" to spare.The bedroom arrangements were accommodating for our family of 7. My wife and family said they would definitely stay here again.

I really don’t want to let the secret out!! The house was amazing!! Great space for everyone! The house was stocked with al the necessities and more! The screen patio was great area for visiting, having coffee in the morning, dinner and cards at night! The dock was great for our boat and easy to get in and out of. Canal is easy to navigate with great access to get the river. Our family and friends had an amazing weekend.

Thank you so much for your review! We are so happy you enjoyed your stay.
This was a very nice home for our fishing group. My father, brother, cousin, and friend stayed very comfortably in this three bedroom home. The home was clean and well equipped with more than everything we needed. There is a nice boathouse and dock for our two boats, as well as a nice cleaning station for our daily catch. The cleaning sink has a freshwater supply to help with cleaning, and has a tabletop on each side, but we found that using a cutting board made filleting our fish easier. There is a large screened in back porch, with plenty of seating, fans, a gas grill(we used one time), a small refrigerator, and a table for outdoor dining and relaxing after a long day on the water. There is a nice fire pit and seating area outside, but we didn't use it on this trip. There are smart televisions throughout the home for those who like to keep up with the news or their shows. We were all able to wash our clothes and return home without a weeks long pile of dirty clothes in the provided washer and dryer. The location is just a couple of minutes drive to the nearby free public boat launch. Our whole group loved the place, and we hope to return next year.
We are local Floridians who love being on the water. We have always enjoyed staying in Astor on the St. Johns River. Whether its fishing, going to the springs or a relaxing boat ride, this is where you will find us. My Husband and I, while dating spent many weekends at the springs. As a family, our boys grew up spending weekends and summers here in Astor fishing, playing at the springs and just enjoying the water. Our plan was to always own our own piece of paradise here and we were finally able to do so in 2022. We are excited to share our home with you.
Why they chose this property
Our home is centrally located on the St. John's River. Walk across the street to Drifters Bar & Grill, a short drive to multiple restaurants, bars and grocery stores. We also offer a quick ride south on the river to Drifters, St, John's Grill, or north to multiple springs (Juniper, Silver Glen, Salt), Lake George, or Renegades. Fishing is always fruitful!
We are also minutes away from historic downtown Deland, Volusia Speedway Park; and a short ride to Daytona Beach and the Daytona international Speedway!!
What makes this property unique
In addition to being centrally located and on the water, our home boasts a peaceful view of the St John's River. With the benefit of being on a short canal, you get a view of the water and a view of the St. John's without the boat traffic noise and wake. Our outdoor fire pit makes for a relaxing evening. Or if you prefer, the oversized screened in porch boast a TV, small fridge, dining table and sitting area with a firepit table perfect for morning coffee, outside dining or just relaxing.
