Welcome to this peaceful riverfront retreat with an exclusive location in the 2 bedroom, 1 bath downstairs apartment of a riverfront home. Located just four houses down from the head springs of Rainbow River, you'll enjoy crystal-clear water only steps outside your back door.

Or spend the day on the river and kayak a few hours down to Swampy's Bar & Grille for riverside dining.

About the host

Host profile image
We are a 7th+ generation native Floridian family who has lived all over Florida and spent our childhood on the river. My grandparents bought this piece of property on Rainbow River in 1960 and now their seven grandchildren have our own children we're raising to love and respect this river as we grew up doing. Our memories here are so vivid and special, and we hope you find the same peace and restfulness we love about this place.
