About this property

Dunnellon. Minutes to Rainbow Springs State Park. 10% discount, 4 weeks or more!

Single family home on .73 acre. 4 bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms, 2276 sq. ft. plus huge screened in patio porch overlooking wildlife refuge greenbelt. Newly-furnished. New 55 inch and 49 inch HD TV's, new Weber gas grill, new bedroom sets and mattresses, new outdoor furniture.

We have river access 5 minutes away either at KP Hole or Rainbow Springs State Park. We have available for use a double kayak and two single kayaks. Rainbow Springs State Park is our favorite place to swim, year round. The park also has delightful hiking trails through waterfalls, butterfly gardens and is home to thousands of cardinals and other wildlife.

Sit on our porch overlooking nature, commune with a hawk in the back yard tree, watch a deer grazing or a rabbit running by, a cardinal family eating at the bird feeder, a woodpecker in another tree. Sit out there at night, shut off the lights and be mesmerized by the fireflies.

Master bedroom has king bed with new 49 inch TV and comfortable leather reclining chair for TV watching if you don't want to sit in bed. Two large walk-in closets. Private master bathroom with 2 vanities, shower and separate oversized soaking tub. . Second bedroom has brand new queen bed and mattress and third bedroom has 2 brand new twin beds and mattresses. Second full bathroom and third half bathroom can be accessed from either bedroom.The study has separate entrance with new double sofa bed and really comfortable upgraded mattress and can be used as fourth bedroom. WiFi throughout home. Washer, dryer, dishwasher, garbage disposal, refrigerator, oven, stove and microwave,central a/c, garage, linens, towels, dishes, pots and pans and utensils, coffee maker, toaster, pantry items, iron and board, hair dryer.

Children are welcome; however, no pets and no smoking.Boats, RV's and trailers are not allowed on property due to Homeowners Association Rules; however, canoes, kayaks and bikes can be put in garage.

Laminate flooring through much of home, including master bedroom. Elegant dining room with unique chandelier. If you only have chandelier light on at night, it creates magical images on the walls and ceiling. Large and open kitchen and dining area with new table and comfortable padded chairs. Kitchen overlooks porch/patio and greenbelt forest in back. 55 inch new HD TV in family room with leather couches and chairs to watch TV or open double doors, let the fresh air in, listen to the birds singing and look out through screened in porch to ever-changing Mother Nature.

Dunnellon is minutes away, a charming town with casual dining on the river (we like Swampy's and the very fresh mahi sandwich), boat rentals, canoe or kayak rentals or tubing.

During the winter months, rent a pontoon in Crystal River, about a fifteen minute drive, bring your snorkel gear and swim with the manatees. (The snorkeling is also fabulous in Rainbow Springs).
If you are a golfer, there is an 18 hole great course including wonderful restaurant, just 5 minutes away, and another 9 hole course also 5 minutes away. Both are open to the public.
Many guests rent our home during the HITS events in the winter. HITS is 25 to 30 minutes away.

If you are into fishing, nearby Lake Rousseau is famous for bass fishing. Ocala is a twenty minute drive if you need a city and shopping malls; however, Dunnellon has a great Winn Dixie and Publix less than 5 minutes away, a Walmart that's open 24 hours a day, Walgreens, CVS and more than enough to allow you to enjoy your vacation in a laid back environment.

The people are super friendly. There are many other quaint towns to visit within an hour drive or less, including Weeki Wachee State Park with famous mermaid shows. But you can just swim in Rainbow Springs every day, come back to this home and be perfectly serene, content and fulfilled.

Perfect.
We spent 7 weeks in Dottie & Marti's beautiful home while competing at HITS Horse Show Winter Circuit. Excellent, attentive hosts in a quiet neighborhood including helpful neighbors! The home was spotless, the beds comfortable, and included all necessary appliances for a comfortable stay. Looking forward to staying here again. Convenient to Dunnellon shopping and restaurants, we enjoyed the wooded back yard and neighboring hiking trails. Thank you for a perfect vacation from Wisconsin winter!

Perfect Stay!
My husband and I have stayed in many, many vacation homes over the years, and this stay rates among our favorites.. The hosts were incredibly responsive and helpful, the home was spacious, well-kept and comfortable and the neighborhood was beautiful. The lanai, overlooking the wooded area behind the house, was spectacular.

Stay here. Place is immaculate. Hosts are very very responsive and attentive. House huge high ciel
This is the cleanest place I have stayed in and I travel almost constantly. The host checked if we needed anything at least weekly. House is LARGE, SPACIOUS, WITH HIGH HIGH CEILINGS, PATIO LARGE AND GREAT FOR ENTERTAINING, neighbors and neighborhood are very friendly. Neighborhood is nice and upscale. Very good vibe. Very close to RIVER, STATE PARKS, AND FUN. I am very very picky and I recommend you stay here. Oh by the way for you ladies - a very large, well appointed kitchen and dining area. It is nicer than the pictures. Stay here you will be happy you did. Kevin

Could not have been a better stay if it was my own home
A great place with great hosts. Couldn't have been better if it had been our own home. Home was immaculate and just as it was represented on the site. Zevins were in communication from our initial contact. Dunnellon is home to our annual golf trip and we look forward to staying at the Zevin home for years to come. Jim Stickney

Beautiful home away from home!
We stayed for a month and have never felt more comfortable in a rental home! The layout is fantastic. Beds are super comfortable. The screened in porch is huge and incredibly private. The neighborhood is quiet and friendly. Rainbow Springs State Park is literally 8 minutes from the home and has hiking, kayaking, and an incredible spring to swim in. Additionally there are so many kayak and hiking opportunities all within an hours drive. Cedar Key is a beautiful spot right on the gulf that is only an hour away. The owners are a delight and very responsive to any questions.

About the host

Hosted by Dotty Zevin or Marty Zevin

Host profile image
Hi! I'm Marty. My wife Dotty and I have lived in south Florida since the 70's. Our work has kept us in the Delray Beach urban area, but we have always enjoyed escaping to nature. We love to swim in natural springs. In the 90's, we discovered our Fountain of youth: Rainbow Springs. It is our favorite place in the world, year round.
In February, 2018, we fulfilled our dream and bought this vacation home in Rainbow Springs Country Club, less than a five minute drive to Rainbow Springs.
So, until we retire there, we would like to share our joy with you.
Prior to booking, we must speak to you on the phone to pre-approve you.
