Cozy 2-bedroom house minutes from the Rainbow River, Dunnellon, Florida.
Welcome to The Drifting Kayak Vacation Rental House. Located in a quiet and peaceful, well-maintained HOA neighborhood, just a 5-minute drive from the crystal clear and 72-degree F Rainbow River springs, for kayaking, paddleboarding, scuba, and tubing down the river! The little town of Dunnellon has many companies where you can rent a kayak, and they will bus you to the nearby KP Hole, the public put-in for the Rainbow River. Also nearby, you will find the Rainbow River State Park, which has a roped-off swimming area over the spring head. Our cozy little house has 2 King beds and a twin daybed. 1200 Mbps of wifi, a dedicated office space, and a printer. There are smart TVs with Fire TV Sticks for your entertainment and relaxation. Feel free to log in to your Streaming subscription channels. Experience Dunnellon like a local, go explore the nearby local art center, as well as a historical village where you can find your next antique treasure or that special gift for a loved one. There is a Winn-Dixie grocery store just minutes away from the home for all your food shopping needs, as well as a Super Walmart as you enter town. This charming property has a family room, with a remote-controlled electric log fireplace to add a cozy vibe and atmosphere, a reading nook, adult coloring books and pencils, a jigsaw puzzle table for relaxing while you watch a movie or TV show, and board games and playing cards for some fun! There is a 6-foot-long jetted bathtub and shower in the guest bathroom. An inside laundry room with a washer, dryer, iron, and ironing board for all your laundering needs during your stay. The swimming pool is not heated, but you're welcome to use it for a refreshing swim if you'd like. The pool company comes to clean it weekly on a Monday. There is a coffee station for you to enjoy that morning cup of coffee, while rocking on the front porch or enjoying the peaceful backyard, listening to the birds waking up. A drip coffee machine, an electric kettle if you'd like tea instead. I've provided starter packs of ground coffee, a variety of sweeteners and teabags, and hot chocolate for you to enjoy. We hope you enjoy what our place and Dunnellon have to offer. The pool patio does have a removable baby safety fence, but please don't leave any small kids in the pool area unsupervised. We want you to be as comfortable and safe as possible during your stay.

This house is for sure a home away from home! The host was amazing start to finish, the house was super clean, cozy and extremely comfortable. Tammy had everything you could need and even little things that you could have forgotten. I would rate this stay a 10 if I had the option! 5 stars all the way across the board! Thank you so much for everything

About the host
Hosted by Tammarin K
I'm originally from South Africa. We've been married for 27 years, we have 1 child and we live in the area. My husband has hotel management experience and over the years we have managed long-term rentals. I love meeting new people and have travelled all over the world.
Why they chose this property
We love this neighborhood because it is quiet, peaceful and has an abundance of birds. The neighbors are all very friendly, most are retired and enjoy their peace. Therefore we ask for you to please respect the quiet hours of 10pm to 9am as not to upset any neighbors. Thank you.
What makes this property unique
We have put a lot of thought and effort into making our home a very welcoming, relaxing space for your enjoyment. We chose to paint it a relaxing pale aqua inside to welcome you to the destination of a river house. It is my favorite color and I just feel so at ease walking into the house and feeling calm. There is a livingroom with a 65-inch TV for your enjoyment as well as a family room off of the kitchen. In the family room you will find a remote-controlled electric fireplace for a bit of heat and coziness. A coffee station with tea and coffee will hopefully start your day off right! We just want you to have a good time, relax and enjoy your vacation. Please, if anything is missing or breaks during your stay, let us know immediately so that we can address it. Thank you for booking with us and enjoy your stay!
